Chapter 2



Chapter 2 I Don’t Want a Divorce

At midnight. Kate shuddered awake from a nightmare. She felt disoriented and terrified as she opened her eyes. Subconsciously, she started to look around. Then, she suddenly froze in shock. The layout of the room was incredibly familiar, it was her room back in Summer Estate! But wasn’t she supposed to be dead? Pushed off the rooftop by Ruth and Simon, her body had shattered into pieces! Could it be … she was reborn? Realising this, Kate’s pupils constricted. She quickly lifted the blanket from her body and jumped out of bed, Not bothering to put on slippers. She ran out barefoot and pushed open the door at the end of the corridor. As the door opened, she saw a man with his shirtless back facing the door. There was a faint smell of blood lingered in the air. He turned his face upon hearing the movement. His deep gaze falling on the shocked Kate. That man was stunned, then his handsome face darkened slightly. He asked sarcastically, “What else do you want to do? Haven’t you caused enough trouble?” He exuded a cold and strong aura. His eyes dark and intense as he stared at Kate. It had a strong sense of oppression and it seemed to blend with the dark night, making it impossible to read his emotions. Kate stared blankly at the man in front of her. He was the man who had once made her hate and fear. In her previous life, she had been deceived by Ruth and Simon, believing that Eric was plotting against Lowe Group and using paranoid means to keep her by his side. She considered Eric terrifying and devilish. Every waking minute, she wanted to escape his confinement. However, when she was on the verge of death, she realised how much this man had sacrificed for her. He even willing to sacrifice his life for her. And now, he sat against the light, a simple bandage wrapped around his left shoulder, but blood still seeped through the bandage. Despite this, his expression remained indifferent, as if the injury was not affecting him at all. Kate’s pupils contracted. She remembered! That night she was incited by Ruth to divorce Eric. He refused to divorce her no matter what she did. In a fit of rage, she grabbed a fruit knife and stabbed Eric in the left shoulder. After that, she cold-shouldered Eric for half a month and resisted everything he did, until he finally agreed to the divorce. So the current situation is … she had been reborn to the night she stabbed Eric? Kate stared blankly at the glaring blood on Eric’s body. Those images kept flashing before her eyes. Her eldest brother was hacked to death, her second brother crushed in a car accident, her third brother jumped off eighteenth floor, her parents drowned after falling off a bridge, and … Eric, humiliated before his death. His body was exposed in the wilderness and there was nothing of him left. All the tragedies were caused by her. She had killed them all. She … was a sinner! And what she had done was unforgivable! “Eric … ” Kate’s voice trembled. Tears suddenly bursted out of her eyes. The emotions that had been accumulating for a long time erupted. She trembled as she tentatively reached out to hug Eric and greedily sniffed the pine fragrance on his body. Suddenly hugged by her, Eric seemed to be momentarily moved, but he quickly returned to calm. Kate trembled as she touched Eric’s shoulder. Her voice filled with unprecedented fear as she asked, “Does it hurt?” Eric stared at her for a while. His dark eyes were like a bottomless abyss as if to completely engulf Kate. In the past, if he stared at her like this, Kate would be frightened and fled immediately. At this point, her heart was filled with pain and guilt. Even though she still feared Eric, she didn’t avoid him. Eric pursed his lips. He averted his gaze and said coldly, “I won’t die.” “I’ll get George.” Kate suddenly stood up. She gazed at Eric with pain in her eyes and said firmly, “You need to go to the hospital.” If she remembered correctly, Eric had a lingering injury in his shoulder from the stab she had inflicted. Kate had aimed for his heart, but he didn’t dodge the attack and just looked at her sorrowfully. At the last moment, she diverted the knife to his left shoulder, then let go in despair and urged Eric to leave. Eric kept the incident of Kate stabbing him a secret, but two days later, he developed a high fever from the infected wound and collapsed in the study before being found by the butler and taken to the hospital. After a day and night of treatment, he was saved from the brink of death. However, his left arm was partially disabled and unable to exert force. If not for this, how would Eric been overpowered and beaten to death later? Eric was a self-made man from the underground world of illegal boxing. He was the invincible god of war in the underworld, known for his thunderous methods and decisive killings that terrify people, respected and feared by both the underworld and the lawful world. No one dares to be his enemy. Yet, because of her, he was humiliated to death by others, his body left exposed in the wild. “Hum.” Eric let out a cryptic cold laugh. He grabbed Kate’s wrist with a hint of paranoia in his eyes. He confronted, “Are you trying to escape when I’m not around?” Kate’s heart was stung by his words. She looked at Eric’s sarcastic expression and explained in a panic, “I won’t … ” A sharp pain shot through her wrist. Kate wanted to pull away, but she endured it. She said, “Eric, I don’t want a divorce.” Eric’s eyes deepened. His breathing paused. A strong emotion was surging in his eyes. Eric looked at Kate whose tears streaking down her face. Her gaze has unprecedented seriousness without any evasion. He swallowed. In the next moment, Eric forcefully pulled Kate into his embrace. “Hmm … ” Eric’s aura suddenly enveloped Kate. She barely managed to let out a soft cry before Eric sealed her lips with his passionate and domineering kiss. His strength was overwhelming, as he strongly held Kate in his embrace, his lips firmly grinding against hers. Their tongues intertwined enthusiastically as if he wanted to completely tear her apart and devour her. Kate felt like she was a small boat in a storm, at any moment ready to be completely torn apart and capsized, even her breathing was being gradually taken away. Just when she thought she was about to suffocate, Eric finally loosed. His deep eyes were tinted with desire. He looked at Kate, who panted violently, and her lips slightly swollen. Eric warned, “Remember what you said today.” His voice was deep and hoarse, booming in Kate’s ears like a muffled thunder. She instinctively clenched her fists, her watery eyes staring at him. Kate mustered her courage to move closer and left a sincere kiss on Eric’s lips. Then, she looked up at him and vowed seriously and solemnly, “I, Kate Lowe, will never divorce Eric Davison.”NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
