A Matter of Wife and Love by Mila

Chapter 396 Make Sure That You’re Dead Before He Goes Insane

Chandler licked his teeth and stuck his tongue in his inner cheek as he spewed hatefully, “Of course, I’ll make him

suffer!”

Following that, he pressed the tip of the knife against her eye socket and continued, “I heard that he owes you a

cornea, and he’s suffering from mental illness because of this. What do you think will happen to him if you lost your

eyeball and your life this time round?”

He was speaking so casually that his tone wasn’t solemn; it was more like a soothing whisper between lovers. If one

disregarded the contents of his words, one might even be smitten by his voice. He spoke of the most horrifying and

bloody subject with the most soulful voice, and it gave Amelie the chills.

“Do you think that his condition will worsen? Is there a possibility that he will go crazy?” he asked with a straight

face and tipped her chin as he waited for an answer.

“Chandler, it’s not too late to stop this. Leo might go insane, but you know him well. He’d make sure that you’re

dead before he goes insane.” Amelie looked at him coldly.

“I know that.” Chandler let go of her chin and inserted his finger into his mouth to lick it as if he was a pervert. “But

I don’t care.” He then continued, “Do you know that I should have been dead many years ago? I was able to stay

alive with God’s grace, and I’m only here to make Leo and the Alston Family suffer!”

His sinister grin exposed a row of white teeth which seemed terrifying, but at the same time, tears welled up in his

eyes like an aggrieved child. It was creepy that he expressed two kinds of expressions at the same time.

“I want them to pay the price of their decision for the rest of their lives!”

Chandler had gone mad. In truth, he had been mad for a long time. Ever since the Alston Family abandoned him,

he was full of hatred and he only managed to stay alive for the past few years by fuelling his life with resentment.

If Amelie wasn’t in such a dangerous situation, she would have pitied him. With that, he pull her up and forced her

to sit on a chair before tying her up. Right after, he took his phone out and made a video call. As the light coming

from the phone shone on his face, it revealed his grin and the excitement in his eyes.

“I’ll let Leo see with his own eyes how the love of his life, whom he is indebted to, will lose her sight,” he uttered. As

soon as he spoke, he placed the phone in front while facing Amelie. He then pressed the knife against her eye

socket.

“Chandler, stop it!” Leo’s voice could be heard calling out. However, the screen of the phone was black with nothing

displayed on it. Even so, Leo must have answered the call since his voice was heard.

“Leo, look closely.” With that, Chandler slowly lifted his hand. Suddenly, a loud explosion was heard coming from

outside, and following that, a bright light came through the room. A tall figure was seen walking in the next

moment. They could only make out his silhouette since he was standing against the light.

“Chandler!” yelled the man.

It’s Leo’s voice! Amelie was surprised when she heard his voice, but at the same time, she had mixed feelings

about his sudden appearance.

“That quick, eh?” Chandler was startled.

Leo then slowly approached them. After his eyes adjusted to the light, he looked at Chandler before turning to look

at Amelie. She noticed that he seemed calm.

Chandler was displeased when he saw Leo’s overly calm expression. “Don’t you feel anxious when a bloody

spectacle is about to take place?”

However, Leo was quiet and took a few steps forward. “Don’t you want me to suffer? You can still make me suffer

by releasing her.”

“Oh?” The fascinated Chandler tilted his head and turned to look at Leo.

“Don’t worry, no one came with me,” Leo answered. Indeed, no one had followed along.

“Leo, it seems that you do look down on me.” Chandler scoffed.

“In fact, I will despise you even more!” Instead of giving him an explanation, Leo provoked him instead.

“You… It seems like you’re doubting my ability!” The provoked Chandler was infuriated. With that, he stabbed the

knife into Amelie’s eyes. As she experienced a sharp pain, she instinctively shut her eyes and soon felt warm fluid

gushing down her face. It was blood!

This pain that I’m feeling, though… Having an eye gouged out should be more painful than this. While she was still

trying to make sense of the situation, she heard Chandler roaring frantically, “Leo, you lunatic!” When Amelie

looked up and opened her eyes, she saw a hand in front of her. That hand was gripping tightly onto the knife which

was supposed to stab into her eyes.

Chandler was so baffled by the scene in front of him that he was wide-eyed. Before Amelie could figure out the

sudden change in his expression, the back of her neck felt cold and moist. The next moment, she could feel fluid

dripping; over time, there was more of it.

Suddenly, Leo’s deep voice rang next to her ears. “Once I’m dead, I wouldn’t know or feel heartbroken if you cut

her into pieces. Chandler, you won’t be able to achieve your objective.”

As soon as Leo spoke, Amelie heard a loud gunshot. Following that, there a was bloody hole on Chandler’s forehead

that went through the front and back of his skull. The bloody hole appeared horrifying, and someone covered her

eyes before blood started gushing out of the hole.

Suddenly, a loud thud was heard before police officers started rushing in.

“Miss Dillon, are you okay?” one of them called out as they untied her. Amelie wiggled her body, but before she

could stretch her hands which had been tied for a long time, she turned to look at Leo. He was seen slumping

against the chair with a knife stabbed in his chest. Blood was flowing down from the edges of the knife…

It was then that Amelie finally realized what had caused the fearful look on Chandler’s face and the liquid on the

back of her neck.

At that moment, she was overwhelmed by emotions as she rushed over to him. “Leo!”

Leo was being carried by a few men. As he arduously placed his hand on her face, he smiled. “Don’t be scared…”

Before he could finish what he wanted to say, his hand slipped down from her face as he collapsed to the ground.

“Leo!”

…

Three months later, Clouson City was still as busy and crowded as ever.

On a huge screen outside of the entrance of a shopping complex, a news anchor was delivering the following news,

“Genesis Company has once again led the way this year, being the most profitable company in Clouson City for the

third consecutive year. Their share price has risen steadily and has reached 10,000 per share. The company is

estimated to be worth…” In a Bentley parked outside of the shopping complex, Eugene pursed his lips as he looked

over to the person next to him who was resting her eyes. They’re like two peas in a pod.

Soon, the car drove away and reached Genesis Tower in 20 minutes. Eugene instantly got out of the car and

opened the other door. The next moment, a slim woman in all-black office wear was seen getting down.

“Miss Dillon, a few reporters have requested to interview Mr. Alston. What do you…” Eugene asked.

“Tell them that Mr. Alston is on a business trip overseas and won’t be accepting any interviews for the time being.”

With that, the woman entered Genesis Tower. As Eugene looked at the woman’s back, he pursed his lips while

looking grim. In the end, he let out a sigh and followed behind her.
