"Listen to you. When Donald deeply loved Joanna, what have you done? You kept trying to take him away from her. You are not qualified to ask me this question. Yes. I like Stuart because heās your husband. I could take everything from you, and I will."
She said in a voice of hatred.
Eddie didnāt know Victoria hated her so much until today.
"Who did Donald really love? Donāt you know? I wonāt miss Donald if you donāt tell Joanna. Victoria, Iāve forgiven you so many times. I wonāt forgive you more. No one can touch my man, including you."
She warned Victoria word by word, "I would send you back to A. I wonāt let you go if I see you again."
When Eddie was about to leave, Victoria caught her hands tightly, "Eddie. I can go back. But could you promise me you never tell our grandpa about this? He would beat me."
"Get off me. You are not qualified to make me promise anything."
Eddie got her hands back.
Victoria suddenly kneeled down, holding Eddieās leg tightly.
She cried so hard.
"Eddie, please. I beg you. Iāve never asked you to do anything. Please promise me this time. If our grandpa knew about this, he would break my legs. Our grandpa loves you more than me. Our parents never scolded me, but grandpa always did this because of you. Please, Eddie. Donāt tell our grandpa. Otherwise, he would also feel shame."
Tears streamed down her cheeks.
Actually, Eddie didnāt plan to tell her family, including her grandpa.
Her grandpa was too old to handle such a shame.
Finally, Eddie was tendered.
"Okay, I promise. Get your hands off now."
"Eddie, could you help me? My legs hurt." Sheās been kneeling for quite a while.
Eddie bent down without hesitation. After all, Victoria was her own sister.
She didnāt expect Victoria to catch her hands and got malicious, "Go to hell."
Then the woman stabbed her immediately with a fruit knife.
Victoria controlled Eddieās hands. She couldnāt get rid of her.
In a second, lots of blood oozed out of her belly.
The pain immersed Eddie. She was so painful that she could help herself gasping.
Hearing Eddieās screaming, the men at the door rushed in immediately.
Victoria knew she had no much time left. She just stabbed her belly. That wouldnāt kill Eddie. What if she stabbed on her heart.
Then, she drew the knife out and thrust into Eddieās heart.
But...
Eddie blocked it.
Eddie held the knife tightly. Her hands were bleeding. All she remembered at the moment was that she wanted to live a happy life with Stuart.
So, she couldnāt die.
In the next second, the Guard already arrived. They pushed Victoria away immediately.
Eddie finally faded out.
Victoria was still struggling. Her face looked really scary at the moment.
"I would kill you, Eddie, I would kill you. I would take everything from you. They belong to me? You are unqualified to have them. Youāve stolen them from me. You should pay for this!"
***
Soon Stuart heard the news. When Ivan told him,
"Mrs. Yates was stabbed."
Stuart felt his heart stopped beating for a second.
Then, he felt a thunder explode next to his ears.
All directors at the meeting saw their calm president rushing out of the room.
Ivan told him everything in the car.
Eddie was stabbed by Victoria, with a knife.
Her belly was bleeding badly.
Now, she was sent to the hospital.
"Hurry up!"
Stuart crushed on the chair in the car.
It has been two months since she was wounded last time. These days, Eddie got better and better. She could laugh and play with him now. The woman belonged to Stuart, totally.
They would get married soon, the day after tomorrow.
After the wedding, they would go to the Maldives for their one-month honeymoon. She could stay wherever she likes and leave whenever she wants."
Heās planned everything for her. He never expected someone dared to stab her before their wedding.
He got scared.
Maybe it was because of the wedding.
Stuart forced himself to calm down. It took him several hours to stay cool, "whereās that bitch?"
"Weāve locked her up in the villa."
"Take her to the hospital. I would destroy her."
Stuart had never been a kind person. But he never showed his brutality in front of Eddie.
Eddie never saw his bloody methods. But that didnāt mean it didnāt exist.
This time, Stuart decided to use them.
He was driven crazy.
Soon, they arrived at the hospital. Eddie was in the surgery room at the moment.
The wound was deep. Eddie lost lots of blood.
The doctors gave him a brief introduction to Eddieās condition. Stuart generally fell in despair.
He waited out of the ward anxiously. Before Eddie got out, Victoria arrived.
Stuart saw her. His eyes turned scary, like the hell of death.
Victoria was frightened. Her body was shaking. She couldnāt move anymore.
But suddenly she started struggling, "let me go. Let me go. I donāt want to go there. That man would kill me. He would kill me."
"I want her to keep silent forever. Eddie was inside the room. She needed peace," Stuart ordered coldly.
Ivanās been around Stuart for a long time. He was quite familiar with Stuartās style. He was also cruel.
Ivan made a gesture to the Guard. The Guard immediately took a sharp knife and opened Victoriaās mouth.
But Victoria closed her mouth tightly. Tears kept falling down on her face.
"Give you a minute. Make this bitch shut up, or I would make you shut up."
Stuart ran out of patience. His voice sounded like ice.
His eyes were bloody and brutal.
He would make Victoria pay for what sheās done. He would torture her to death.
He would torture anyone that hurt Eddie.
The Guard was scared. Sweat oozed out on his forehead.
He needed to cut Victoriaās tongue in a minute.
He tried to open her mouth.
Victoriaās jaw was almost broken.
As the Guard almost opened her mouth, someone shouted out in the corridor,
"Stop!"
