“Is that so?” John pulled Kathleen into the living room and sat on the sofa. “Show me your hand!”
Kathleen obediently stretched out her hand. There were no scars on her fair and tender hand, only the dust from the fireworks.
John was relieved, and his tone softened. “Have you seen Sherri lately? She just said that you hit her!”
Kathleen widened her eyes and shook her head. “I went to the graveyard to visit my father and had not seen Ms. Millan. There is no way I could have hit her!” Kathleen said.
Her confused gaze stroke a chord in John’s heart, causing him to tremble violently.
He pulled her into his embrace and kissed Kathleen.
This time, John’s kiss was different as it was no longer overbearing and violet. Instead, it was gentle.
Kathleen kissed her red lips lightly and explored the beauty of Kathleen.
However, the impact of a gentle kiss was larger than a violent one.
Kathleen leaned into his arms, and as her mind went blank. She just hugged him tighter instinctively.
After an unknown amount of time, Katleen started to give in to him, kissing him.
John looked at Kathleen in disbelief. He lifted Kathleen’s chin and forced her to look at him. “Who taught you how to kiss? You even kissed me?” John asked.
Kathleen’s face was flushed. Her heart was pounding as she thought about the kiss.
She opened her eyes, bit her red lips, and blushed. “Didn’t young master taught me that?”
John slightly shook, feeling a numbness from head to toe.
“Kathleen, you had grown up. Your ability to seduce people is getting stronger by the day!”
“Lama piece of clay, molded by young master!”
Kathleen raised her eyes to look at him with glimmering eyes. “Young master doesn’t like me like this?”
“I like it. How can I not!” John really wished that he could take Kathleen right then and there.
However, he could not. Kathleen was still young for him to take her.
All of this made him feel conflicted and frustrated.
He could not tell whether he hated her or felt something else.
He took a deep breath and suppressed the agitation in his heart. He carried Kathleen upstairs.
‘When they reached the second floor, John pushed open the bedroom door and placed Kathleen on the soft bed. He only had Kathleen in his eyes.
Kathleen’s long hair fell on the bedsheet like a black waterfall.
Her black eyes were twinkling on her pretty little face.
Her thick eyelashes cast a faint shadow, just like an ink stain on the paper.
One could lose their soul with one glance.
John often boasted that he was calm and had self-control. However, no matter how strong his self-control was, it would fall apart when met with Kathleen.
He could no longer control his emotions and kissed Kathleen’s lips.
The fireworks outside rang out, and the crackling sounds reverberated throughout the entire villa.
After an unknown amount of time, John finally stopped.
John’s large hands hugged Kathleen, and his pitch-black eyes flickered from the light of the fireworks.
He slowly approached Kathleen and whispered into her ear, “Sleep here tonight!”
Kathleen trembled slightly and raised her eyes. “Young master, you…”
“Don’t misunderstand me. I won’t do anything. I just want you to spend the new year with me!”
Ever since his parents passed away, he had felt extremely lonely during the New Year every year.
He no longer felt so lonely with this little thing. He was filled with happiness and satisfaction.
Sometimes, he was conflicted that he had kept her here to pay off her debts or an excuse to keep her by his side.
Kathleen raised her head to look at the handsome man beside her and nodded her head gently. “Alright, I’ll accompany you!”
It was not Kathleen accompanying John; instead, it was two lonely souls finding comfort in each other’s company.
‘That was the happiest and most satisfying night for John. He slept soundly.
Millan’s residence.
Ascream cut through the silence in the middle of the night at Millan’s residence. The butler stood in front of Sherri’s bedroom door, trembling with fear. “Miss, she…!”
Sherri was lying on the big bed in the large room. Her clothes had long been dyed red with blood.
Her face was full of bruises. Blood was flowing out of various parts of her body.
The blood flowed from the bed sheet to the ground, giving off a strong metallic smell.
‘When George heard the scream, he walked in his pajamas. He looked in the direction the maid was looking at, and his expression suddenly changed.
“Sherri, what happened?”
He quickly stepped forward and grabbed Sherri. He looked at Sherri’s bruised and swollen face and said in disbelief, “What’s going on? How did Sherri get hurt?”
“I don’t know. This is what she looked like when she came home!”
George glared at him and said angrily, “What are you standing around for? Call an ambulance!”
“Yes!” The butler repeatedly nodded and quickly dialed 911.
The ambulance soon arrived at the Millan’s residence since it was very late at night and there was no traffic.
The paramedics got out of the car and carried the stretcher to the living room.
George carried Sherri downstairs in his pajamas and rushed to the ambulance.
Once they arrived at the hospital, Sherri was pushed straight into the operating room due to her wounds.
At the entrance of the operating theater, George looked at the butler and said angrily, “What exactly happened? How did Sherri get this badly injured?”
The butler said hesitantly, “I don’t know. All she said was she didn’t want me to tell you about this!”
George narrowed his eyes. Sherri must have done something behind his back since she did not want him to know.
John was the first person that came into his mind.
That must be it. She must have had fought with Kathleen again and was punished by John. That was why she had not dared to tell him the truth!
George was a little angry. “I told her before to behave herself and not provoke John. She still hasn’t learned her lesson after all that had happened?”
Kathleen was John’s treasure. Why would she provoke him? All she had to do was to behave herself as John’s fiancée?
The butler comforted him, “Don’t be angry. She might have a reason for her actions!”
“What could be the reason? It must be a bad reason!”
George’s heart sank. He had initially wanted to call John, but now it seemed that there was no need for that.
George glanced at the lights in the operating theater and sat down on the chair with an annoyed look on his face.
The surgery lasted for more than two hours. The Doctor had done a full examination on Sherri and also treated her wound.
George saw the doctor pushing Sherri out of the operation room, and he quickly walked up to him. “Doctor, how is my daughter?”
‘The doctor was wearing a mask. He looked at George and said, “She had suffered severe injuries on her body.”
“Fortunately, they are all external injuries. She will recover with rest!”
George closed his eyes and said in a deep voice, “I understand. Thank you, Doctor!”
After the doctor left, George followed the nurse to Sherri’s ward.
The smell of disinfectant was strong in the ward. The nurse began to give her an ivy drip..
