Chapter 897
But Keith didn't want to just kill Tarquin. Not because he doubted his capability to do so, but because the thought of directly ending his life never crossed his mind.
He wanted to torment Tarquin slowly, just like Kendrick had tormented him, playing a cruel game of cat and mouse until Tarquin was broken!
He stole Tarquin's child, manipulated Gideon to drive Elijah into severe mental illness, all to make Tarquin suffer!
He wanted to use Elysia to inflict pain on Tarquin!
To use everything precious to Tarquin as a weapon against him!
As long as it made Tarquin suffer, Keith was willing to do anything!
And then, the cruel twist of fate - he had been hating the wrong person all along.
He was told that the person who had led him astray, who had turned him into a monster, wasn't Kendrick but an imposter!
He was told he had been seeking revenge on the wrong person, repaying kindness with enmity!
He was told his real enemy was still out there, probably watching and laughing at him from the shadows.
Keith let out a bitter laugh, which soon turned into sobs.
Standing alone on the rooftop, his vision blurred by tears, his body shaking violently.
He cried like a helpless child, his cries loud and heart-wrenching!
Crying until he was gasping for air, crying until he felt like he was suffocating!
Why? Why did he have to suffer like this?Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
What had he done in his past life to deserve such punishment in this one?
He couldn't understand, he truly couldn't make sense of it!
He had had a happy family, only for it to be destroyed overnight!
He had found redemption, had started to hope again for the future, only for it to be crushed once more!
He was naturally kind-hearted, without a trace of malice, yet he was being turned into a monster!
Who could tell him why?
Suddenly, Phineas's voice echoed in his ears,
"Dad hoped Quinlan would grow up to be a soldier, standing tall for his country, bringing peace and stability to his home!"
Kelsey made a face,
"So why did you become an artist instead of a soldier? It's each person's life, their own choice. Whether Quinlan becomes a soldier isn't the point; having a patriotic heart is what matters. What's important is that our Quinlan lives a peaceful, happy life."
The eldest brother said, "I'm going to join the army, to protect our country and provide the safest, happiest life possible for Quinlan!"
The second brother added, "Me too, the responsibility to protect our country is on us brothers, let Quinlan grow up however he wishes. He can become an artist like dad or a teacher like mom, whatever he wants."
Their sister said, "Quinlan, as your eldest sister, I'll always love you. Don't worry, whatever happens, you'll always have my love. Surrounded by love, Quinlan is sure to grow up into a kind-hearted person."
Then Elizabeth's voice filled his ears,
"He's tall, handsome, and morally upright, my favorite man, the only one I'd entrust my life to! I love him!"
"I'm confident that Aiden will like him too, because he's outstanding, and because Aiden loves me. Loving me, Aiden will inevitably love him too!"
"When we leave Hill Village, we'll settle abroad together, get married, and have a little brother or sister for Aiden, so Aiden can be a big brother."
"Aiden, do you want a little brother or a sister? Either way, you'll surely love them, right?"
"Aiden, see that brightest star in the sky? Beautiful, isn't it? I hope your life will also shine brightly, unparalleled."

Suddenly, the sky opened up, pouring down heavy rain.
