Chapter 84

Chapter 84 She never thought love could be so twisted and sick. Every time she rejected him, he’d trap her, scare her, and torment her in all sorts of ways.

But she always had the pocket knife Rickon gave her for self-protection. Even though Hal had tormented her, he gained nothing from it, not even so much as touching her hand, and almost got himself stabbed by her in the process.

After that, the Cornett family didn’t dare let Hal mess with her again.

They all feared their precious son would accidentally get himself killed by her.

So, when Hal showed up that day, she was a bit surprised.

“Astrid, don’t be like this.” Astrid’s hate-filled gaze scared Hal. He tried to grab Astrid’s hand, but she just grabbed his arm and flipped him over her shoulder.

Hal’s bodyguards hadn’t even reacted yet, and Hal was already flat on his back.

His face turned even paler, with beads of sweat forming on his forehead.

As the bodyguards were about to move towards Astrid, he suddenly yelled, “Back off! Don’t you dare lay a finger on my woman!”

All the bodyguards in the room were too frightened to move They all stared at Astrid, itching to tear her apart.

Their young master already had a weak constitution, and Astrid had the audacity to throw him around.

If anything happened to him, they’d be done for.

“Cough cough cough...” Hal started coughing violently due to his agitation, soon coughing up a mouthful of blood. “Astrid, don’t leave me. Pity me;

accompany me through the last journey of life, okay?”

Astrid looked at his trembling body, her lips pursed, “Affection can’t be given out of pity; I don’t want to be with someone I don’t like.”

“Why don’t you like me? Because of that incident? I’ve apologized to you!” Hal’s body was already exhausted from the long flight, let alone being thrown by Astrid. He was barely holding on.

“Apologize? That incident left me scarred. Do you think an apology can just erase all that? If your dad wasn’t so nice to me, I would have killed you long ago!” Astrid shivered at the thought of what had happened three years ago.

Hal knew she had made up her mind and said, “You know I’m dying. A dying man doesn’t care about the consequences. Are you sure you want to gamble with me? Your brothers adore you and they would give anything for you, right?”

“You’re insane!” Astrid shouted. The bodyguards quickly stepped in front of her, fearing she would hit Hal again.

Hal wiped the blood from his mouth and a satisfied smile appeared on his face, “Unless you get married and have children, I will never give up.”

“Married with children?” Astrid paused, knowing Hal was crazy enough to keep his word.

Astrid suddenly had a new idea and a smile appeared on her face. She said, “Funny you should mention that. I’m already married and have a child.”

Hal naturally didn’t believe Astrid was married, “Astrid, do you even believe what you’re saying?” Since he knew Astrid, she was never out of his sight for more than half a year. There’s no way she could have had a child during that time.

So, he was convinced she was lying.

Hearing this, Astrid laughed and said, “I’m an actress, of course I can’t publicize my marital status.”

This made Hal laugh; he asked, “So what’s your husband’s name?”

Astrid blinked and answered, “Elio.”
