Chapter 249

As Gale was shouting out, her hand was moving out of control. The sharp knife left a thin and long cut on her neck.

It was not deep, but it still broke through the skin. Blood slowly flowed out.

That wound was far more painful than any wound that could be inflicted on Shawn himself.

At that moment, he knew that she had successfully punished him.

"Alright, alright, It's my fault." Shawn no longer cared about anything else at that moment. He just wanted her to put the knife down. "It's all my doing. You were completely innocent. Gale, don't do this!" Gale looked at him. His fear and helplessness were not something that could be faked.

So... he really did fall for her.

When did that happen?

She had not noticed at all.

"We can talk about anything. I'll promise you anything. I'll give you whatever you want!" Shawn stared at her, not even daring to blink.

"I want my child. I want my child to be still living in my stomach. Can you do that?"

Shawn fell silent.

There was no way to resurrect the dead.

Gale laughed coldly. "Actually, I never expected that the day would come when I could use my own death to threaten you and punish you. When you said you loved me, I never believed it."

"I've given in time and time again. All I wanted was for my child to survive. It was such a humble hope, but you had to destroy it personally. Shawn, I'll never forgive you. Never!"

"You have your ways of loving me, and I have my ways to trample on your love as well! If I killed you, I would just be sent to jail by your family. I'd have the crime of murder hung on my head. However, if I die...' Gale's tears slowly fell from her eyes.

"You'll never be able to get me. Your love will never be realized. There will never be a second Gale in the world... You'll be forced to remember me your whole life, never able to let go..."

She slowly pierced the knife into the artery on her neck.

The blood flowed quicker and quicker, in greater and greater volumes.

Shawn's eyes burned, looking at all that blood.

"I won't kill you. I won't... It's not because I'm not willing to, but because your death means nothing to me. Shawn, you're a demon. You should grow old alone. You aren't worthy of love. You're definitely not worthy of falling in love with someone!" Gale muttered.

The moment she said that, she shut her eyes and put some strength into her hands.

With one stab, everything would end.

Yet...

Gale could not feel any pain at all.

Her knife had not moved forward.

Gale widened her eyes to see that Shawn had grabbed the knife with his hand!

He grabbed the knife tightly, stopping her from doing what she wanted to.

Blood flowed down constantly, but Shawn held on tighter.

"Shawn, you..."

If that continued, his hand would end up crippled! Shawn clenched his teeth and said, "Let go. Gale, don't even think about dying!"

"You should be the one letting go!"

It was a knife, but he was grabbing it with his hand just like that!

Shawn made it look like he was not afraid of pain at all. He held the blade and used his other hand to forcefully pull Gale's hand away. That was how he got the knife out of Gale's hands.

That whole knife was already thoroughly covered in blood.

He let out a sigh of relief.

Gale slowly slumped down, sitting on the bed as she lost all her strength. She looked at Gale with reddened eyes. "Why, why... I can't kill you. I couldn't do it. I can't even kill myself!" she asked. Shawn answered, "Gale, you couldn't do it because you've started to have feelings for me too." "No! There's no way I would fall in love with a demon!"
