Chapter 1019 He Had To Die

Late at night.

After Jack and Queenie went to bed, the Norman Residence was in complete silence.

Leia pressed her face on the door of the master bedroom, and after confirming that there was no sound inside, she tiptoed back into her bedroom. After closing the door, she turned on the lights. She was instantly caught off guard by the sudden appearance of a man!

"Ah-" As soon as she wanted to say something, her mouth was covered by Wayne. A familiar sense of fear invaded her heart.

Wayne pushed her against the door, smiled evilly, and warned her. "Don't yell. If you yell, this knife will slice through your neck in an instant!"

Leia's eyes widened and she felt the pain from being slammed onto the wall. She nodded and shook her hands to gesture that she would not scream.

Wayne glanced at Leia's bulging belly. After letting go of her, he grabbed her slightly chubby face and asked, "Is the child mine?" "No, it's not yours!" Leia denied as the fear in her heart slowly took over her body. 'Didn't he escape abroad? Why is he back in A City?’

He would kill her if he knew that she was marrying Brody while pregnant with his child!

She had no option but to lie to him.

Wayne squinted his eyes and an evil smile flashed across his face as he said, "The child isn’t mine?"

Leia nodded. Although she was doing her best to be brave, her body could not stop shaking when she saw the sharp knife.

Wayne played with the penknife in his hand and moved it to her belly. "If it's not mine, I'll dig it out!" "Wayne, please don't!" Leia immediately covered her belly. She knew that he was a lunatic who would do as he said. She protected her belly and tried to squeeze a smile. "Wayne, I was only joking with you."

Wayne’s knife left her belly and he waved it in front of her eyes while saying, "Is the child mine or the bastard’s?!" "It's yours! I was just joking... Wayne, you're going to be a father!" Leia trembled as she looked at the penknife. She was afraid that it would land on her stomach.

Wayne chuckled and raised her chin with the tip of the knife. "Leia, I hate it when people lie to me." "It's your child. I have a report. It's really..." Leia pointed to the bedside table and looked down. "It's in the drawer."

Wayne put away the knife but did not open the drawer to get the report. Instead, he picked up the invitation card on the side table and asked," What's this?"

Leia saw that he was holding a sample of the invitation card and was frightened out of her wits. "Wayne..." "You're marrying another man while pregnant with my child?" Wayne was beyond furious and tore the invitation in his hand to pieces.

As soon as he returned to A City, he heard that Leia was pregnant and getting married to one of the Hiltons, who were involved in international trade.

Blazing hot anger had surged uncontrollably in his gut upon hearing the news and he sneaked into the Norman Residence the same night.

After the last incident, the security measures of Norman Residence had been upgraded. However, it was nothing to him. After all, he had been trained in special forces. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"Wayne, you fled! You can't expect me to be a single mother. You don't know the kind of people my parents are!" Leia cried and said while acting pitiful.

"You’re not allowed to marry another man. Both you and the child are mine. " Wayne warned her while holding the knife.

"You weren't there at the time. This child belongs to you and I couldn't bear to abort it, so this was the only way I could think of." Leia kept her failed attempted abortion to herself.

Her life would be hundreds of times better if it were not for the baby. She hated the child and Wayne, so she was more than happy to get rid of them.

"Hmph, I'll kill your parents and that man right now!" Wayne said arrogantly. He already had the blood of a few lives on his hands. He surely did not mind killing a few more.

"Wayne, don't do this!" Although Leia hated the Normans, they could not die just yet. If Wayne killed Brody, her great life would come to an end.

"Why? You can’t let go of them?" Wayne squinted, the murderous intent in his eyes clear and obvious.

"No, I don’t care about them. Wayne, you're still a fugitive and you need money, right?" Leia was racking her brain to find a reason to change his mind. "I’m not marrying that man because I love him. What I love is his family's fortune. Wayne, if I marry him, you'll have a worry-free life with all the money that I'll be getting!" "I’ll make money if I need money. You don't need to sell yourself to make money for me! I promise you a good life if you choose to leave with me," Wayne said irritably. He was insulted that she thought he could not support her and their child.

"Wayne, it's alright if I suffer a little, but I'll never allow our child to suffer. Wait until I get the money and I'll leave with you, how about that? Else, you can kill him, but only after I get his money. Then, our family can run away and start a life of our own!" Leia stroked her belly and approached him." Wayne, I know you can make money, but you’re not alone now. Our baby and I can't bear to see you working so hard for us. It’ll only be a while more.

Wayne squinted and thought about what she said.

Based on the wedding customs of A City, after the two took wedding photos and booked the venue, the man would give the woman betrothal gifts. Leia and Brody were already preparing invitations and were not far from taking their wedding photos.

He said, "Okay, I’ll give you some time. Lie down."

Leia understood what he wanted and gritted her teeth. It had taken a lot for her to heal from the trauma that Wayne left her with. She knew that her body would not be able to take it. She begged for mercy, saying, "Wayne, the doctor said no." "You’re far along so I’m sure it’ll be fine. I'll just be careful!" Wayne had not been intimate with anyone for a long time because he had been on the run.

"The doctor said that my body is weak, and my pregnancy is still unstable. Wayne, you don't want the baby to be in danger, do you?" Leia persuaded him.

The child was somewhat Wayne’s soft spot, so he cursed, "F*ck! How disappointing!" "Wayne, we have our lives ahead of us." Leia lightly put her hand on his shoulder, enduring the disgust she felt. She asked, "Where are you staying now?"

Wayne looked at her with caution and replied, "Why are you asking?"

Leia was flustered. She intended to get his address and then have the police catch Wayne.

However, after she thought about it, she realized Wayne would only drag her down with him if he fell into the hands of the police. Only dead men told no tales.

"I care about you... I'm asking so that I know how to reach out to you when I get the money!" Leia said.

Wayne squeezed her face and smirked. "Don't try anything. You don't need to contact me, I’ll contact you when the time comes. Leia, I’ve been paying attention to you. Don't waste your time thinking of tricks."

Leia's heartbeat sped up. 'He has been keeping watch?!’

Wayne was a terrible man whose existence shrouded her life in misery.

She would not allow him to push her around like this. There was no other way. Wayne Blatt had to die!
