CHAPTER 434 I HOPE YOU WILL HAVE A GOOD AND LONG LIFE

It exhausted Kate to say these words. She even gave a relieved smile when she finished her sentence.

Suddenly, Leo’s eyes darkened.

"You think I wouldn’t dare?" Leo asked in a stern voice, tightening his grip on Kate’s neck.

"Ah…"

Kate couldn’t help but grip Leo’s wrist with her hands, scrabbling with her feet.

She was almost choked to death.

Bang!

Just at this moment, the gate of the Lawson Residence was pushed open.

Chris rushed in and dropped on his knees, pleading, "Mr. Cohen, I know Kate has gone too far, but

please let her go. I beg of you!"

His eyes bloodshot, Chris was panting. Apparently, he just learned what was going on here.

Leo, however, stared coldly at him. "Since you know she has done something unforgivable, why do you

beg me to let her go?"

"Because she’s my cousin!" Chris roared. When he looked up again, tears were streaming down his

face. "She’s my family, no matter what she has done. Besides, she loves you, and that’s all!"

Chris almost screamed the last remark out at Leo.

Leo fell into silence and loosened his grip.

Finally, Kate’s face brightened a little and color came into it.

"But I have no feelings for her at all!" Leo said indifferently and threw Kate onto the floor as he spoke.

Lying on the cold floor, Kate was panting like a fish out of water. After a long time, she finally recovered.

Leo cast a look at Chris nonchalantly. "That’s between her and I. Don’t get involved."

Chris kept shaking his head on his knees. "If I hadn’t begged you, she would have been dead!"

At this moment, Kate’s pale lips curved into a wry smile. "Chris, get out."

"But…"

"Leave!" Kate roared and sat up.

Startled, Chris looked at Leo and Kate with mixed feelings and then left after a long hesitation.

There were only Leo and Kate left in the house.

Kate staggered to her feet, came up to Leo and looked closely at him. "You couldn’t make up your

mind, could you?"

Unmoved, Leo said indifferently, "I just want a reason. Why must you do that to her, no matter what it

takes?"

Kate shook her head. "There’s no reason. I just want to defeat her for once, and that’s all."

Kate went to her bed and sat on it, her eyes suddenly glazed. "It was a perfect plan, but I was wrong

about two things."

"What are they?" asked Leo.All content is property © .

"My resolution, and her determination," Kate said with a smile, "Those are the two reasons why I

failed."

Leo remained silent.

Kate continued after a pause, "You didn’t kill me last time, but you should have the motive to kill me

now, shouldn’t you?"

After that, Kate looked up at Leo.

Again, Leo grabbed her by the neck, but this time, he wasn’t holding hard. He looked into her eyes.

"You’re right. I do have the motive to kill you, but I won’t for the sake of her."

"Why not?" Kate clenched her teeth and scowled at Leo. "There’s only one person who can kill me in

this world, and that person is you!"

"But I won’t." Leo stared calmly at her. "You’re shrewd and calculative. If it were in the past, you

wouldn’t do that to her, even if we were married, because you’re aware that you can’t split us up on

your own. But you still did it, because Terry wanted her to go back to Valenham, and that gave you a

gleam of hope, so you were willing to be taken advantage of by him." Leo paused and went on, "Just

as what you said, there’s no winner, but two losers."

Kate remained silent, a hint of anger on her face. She felt as if she was standing in front of Leo naked,

with no privacy at all.

"I won’t kill you. On the contrary, I hope you’ll live a good and long life," Leo said calmly, "In that case,

you would see with your own eyes how happy I am with Lydia. We’ll have another baby. I wish I could

have a boy, so that I’d have it all. But you, you’ll die alone. Even if you get married, you won’t be

happy."

As soon as Leo finished his words, there came the noise of Kate crushing her teeth from her mouth.

After that, blood streamed down from her lips.

"Leo, is this your way to get even with me?" Kate was trembling with rage.

"I’m not getting even with you." Leo shook his head and corrected her, "I’m just helping Lydia out."

Leo left the Lawson Residence as he finished speaking.

"Leo!" Kate’s angry scream came from behind him.

He looked back at Kate quietly, unmoved at all.

"How can you do this to me…" Kate rose to her feet, tears rolling down her face, and her features were

distorted with fury and pain. "I’ll say that again. You’ll regret not having killed me. As long as I exist, I

won’t let you have a happy life with her. As long as I’m not happy, you won’t be happy either!" Kate

bawled hysterically.

Leo ignored her and walked out of the Lawson Residence.

Meanwhile, Nadine, Zakariya and Luna were waiting for him at the entrance, but Leo’s gaze fell on

Zakariya, whose face was pale. Apparently, he had something on his mind.

"What’s wrong?" Leo asked, frowning.

Nadine had guilt written all over her face. "I’m sorry, my lord. We failed to complete the task. Someone

took Terry away."

"What?" Leo was shocked to hear that and continued asking, "By whom?"

Nadine told the whole story, and Leo’s face grew solemn as he listened to her.

"A man like a bat?"

"Yes," Zakariya said with a nod. "We were just about to kill Terry when he suddenly showed up and

punched me in the face."

"Did you see what he looked like?" Leo asked.

The three of them shook their heads.

"No. He was wearing dark clothing with a black mask on his face. He moves really fast."

"The only thing we can confirm is that he’s really strong," Nadine added, "at least stronger than me."

Leo’s eyes darkened as he heard them. He stared grimly at the gloomy sky.

That man hung himself under the roof upside down… Undoubtedly, he was the one Leo had been

looking for all the time, the Hunter.

However, Leo wondered why he came to take Terry away.
