Chapter 372
“What is it, Finley? Are you still trying to protect this little stray?” Paxton growled, his tone a clear warning.
“No, Dad, but if you keep going, you might actually kill her,” Finley reasoned.
Fearing her husband would go too far and end up in jail, Vivica chimed in. “Paxton, let’s leave it at that for today. Death would be too easy for her. We can make her pay for what she’s done to our daughter slowly.”
Paxton released his grip and looked at Larissa again. “Larissa…”
Before he could finish, Larissa repeated the same two words: “Not enough.”
Paxton’s eyes darkened. He knew she was testing him. Gritting his teeth, he rose and picked up the bloody knife from the table.
“Paxton, what are you doing?!” Vivica cried out in alarm.
He pushed her away. “Larissa said it’s not enough! Don’t stop me. I won’t kill this little stray, but I have to give her a few more scars to satisfy Larissa!”
“No… Dad, please don’t…” Blood trickled between Honora’s terrified eyes. She pushed herself
backward with her hands, begging for mercy,
When she saw Paxton was unmoved, she turned to Finley, sobbing, “Finley… Bro, save me… You always cared for me the most…”
Finley’s fists clenched. “I did care for you,” he said coldly. “That’s why I gave you the cure and endured the pain myself. But you played me for a fool. You played our entire family.”
Seeing that Finley wouldn’t help her, Honora desperately looked at Leopold, “Bro…”
“Don’t call me that! Right now, I wish I could kill you with my own hands!” Leopold’s glare was like a blade, making Honora shudder.
