Chapter 205 You Cannot Compare To Oscar
He got up from the ground with difficulty, then endured the pain as he shot Oscar a look. “Thanks for sparing my life today, Mr. Clinton.” Since I didn’t die today, I’ll repay you for this in the future.
Oscar merely looked at him indifferently and replied, “Take it as a small lesson today and not disturb my family again. Otherwise, the consequences would be dire.”
He then threw the dagger away before leaving. Subsequently, his bodyguards followed behind him.
“Are you okay, sir?” June’s five bodyguards came forward as they looked at his bloody hand. Then, they lowered their heads one by one.
He glared coldly at them and wanted to yell but could not do so because his hand was in too much pain. Thus, he said, “You’re all useless. Quick help me bandage it.”
One of them then ran back to the car to take their medicine box and skillfully bandaged June’s wound.
He was in so much pain that he was breaking out in a cold sweat. When the wound was bandaged, he raised his hand in anger and began to hit them. The five men merely stood quietly in place and let him vent his anger on them.
“You’re all useless. I spent so much money to hire you, but none of you are of help. Then what’s the point of hiring you? Hurry and drive me to the hospital. If anything happens to my hand, I’m going to chop off everyone’s hands. Since you’re all so useless, you might as well not use your limbs.” As June continued to vent his anger, the five bodyguards merely bowed their heads and let him scold them.
However, when his scolding did not receive any replies, it was as if he were talking to himself.
He then returned to the car in anger.
When he was already in the car, but no one else went in, he opened the door and stuck his head out. “Are you guys stupid? Hurry and drive! Why am I paying all of you so much each month? Useless idiots. You can’t even protect me. You’re no better than a pig.”
In the end, several cars drove away from the site amid his cursing.
June had always played the role of a rich and noble gentleman. He was generous to his female companion. No matter what happened, he could always maintain his composure. Hence, the women whom he had dated all thought highly of him. If only these women had known he lost face before Oscar. Not only did he fail to get any benefits, but he was also beaten up badly. He could probably never forget such humiliation in his lifetime.
After leaving, he went to the hospital for an examination. The doctor said that had the knife been stabbed a little bit more to one side, it would have been incurable. Also, when the wound healed, he could not lift heavy objects anymore. Yet, although the injury was quite serious, the treatment was timely. Thus, as long as he took care not to wet it and rested well for two to three months, it would gradually recover.
After collecting the prescribed medicine, June then headed downstairs. Once he got into the car, the bodyguard sitting in the driver’s seat carefully asked, “Where do we head to, sir?”
“Find a bar.”
“Okay.”
Nevertheless, halfway through, he changed his mind and headed for Principal General Hospital instead.
Originally, he did not want to go there in such an embarrassing state. However, Cassie had called him just moments ago. All she said was, “I miss you, June. Can you come here now?”
Even if he knew that her words were possibly untrue, his love for her was too deep. Otherwise, he would not have left behind his luxuriant life abroad to follow after her. Furthermore, he still had to endure her cynicism and do everything willingly. It was all because he loved her.
It was a pity that she never did appreciate his love.
Once he arrived at Principal General Hospital, he took the elevator upstairs and entered her ward. However, before he even approached her, a pretty figure rushed toward him.
Just as he thought that the figure would throw herself into his arms, her first words immediately broke all of his anticipations. “Where’s the child? Where’s the child?”
Thus, his face immediately fell. He was just severely wrecked by Oscar because of that insignificant child. Never mind that he lost face, but he almost lost his life too. He would never forget such great humiliation.
However, at that moment, Cassie did nothing but bring back the awful experience to his mind.
Although his injured hand was already no longer painful, it suddenly hurt again. He said in a low voice, “Honey, is that child all you’re thinking about?”
She raised her head to meet his eyes as her enthusiasm slowly faded away. “Don’t tell me you didn’t manage to take him?”
He deliberately raised his injured hand. However, she merely glanced at it before turning away.
As a result, the suppressing anger in him began to surge in him again.
“Honey, didn’t you see that my hand’s injured?”
“But you’re still alive. For a man who merely got injured, you’re acting like a little girl. Aren’t you embarrassed to say that?” she said disdainfully and raised her eyebrows.
With a complicated gaze, he looked at the woman he had loved for so long. Although he devoted himself and gave her so much, at that moment, he had the intention to kill her. However, he could not.
“Honey, don’t you think it’s a bit upsetting for you to say this?” he said while purposely lowering his voice.
She waved her hands and spoke sarcastically, “Stop that. I won’t fall for it. Go and fool those naïve girls, and maybe they’ll fall for it. Even if you’re lying in a hospital now, I won’t cry for you. We both knew this from the beginning, didn’t we?”
As she spoke, his expression turned sour. She could always easily provoke his monstrous anger.
Then, he grabbed her neck as his expression changed. Once I exert some pressure, her beautiful eyes could shut forever.
Suddenly, he felt an unspeakable pleasure inside. Since his beloved woman never took him seriously, perhaps it would be a wonderful thing if she died in his arms.
His unrequited love had made him into a possessive man. If he could not have her, he would rather destroy her.
“Cough, cough—” It was Cassie’s breathless coughs that drew him away from his lunatic thoughts and back to reality.
He then looked over only to realize that just as he was thinking of how to make her die in his arms, his actions had already preceded his thoughts. He was holding her high up and using so much force that the veins on his hand were bulging. In only a few seconds, she might really die in his hands.
Oh my god!
He immediately let her go, then looked at his hands in disbelief. Something horrible almost happened, which caused him to feel scared and terrible.
Once Cassie was dropped onto the ground, she coughed violently. Just moments ago, she thought that she was going to die. It was the same feeling as when she previously threatened Oscar to jump off the building and accidentally fell out of the window. She almost met with death both times and did not want to go through such an experience anymore.
He wanted to touch her, but she instead stepped backward timidly. Then, she looked at him vigilantly as her gaze filled with fear.
The look she gave him was a stab to his heart. He did everything to pursue her; to make her understand his good intentions and to stay by her side. As they had spent so many beautiful nights together back in Erihal, he did not believe she would be so cruel as to not give him any face.
“Don’t be scared. I lost control just now. I’m sorry. Let me see your neck,” he said cautiously. He was afraid he would scare her again.
“Don’t come here. Stand back.” She then waved her hands in fright, for she was indeed afraid of him. After all, he could kill her at any time. “Don’t come near me, or I’ll call the police.”
A flicker of pain then flashed across his eyes as he asked in a low voice, “Are you afraid of me?”
Subsequently, she stepped back again before yelling in fright, “You’re a sicko that wants to kill me. Shouldn’t I be scared?”
Rubbing his hands together, he then said weakly, “I was wrong just now, Cassie. I’m sorry. I promise it wasn’t on purpose. Be good. I’ll promise you whatever you want.”
However, she pointed at the door and yelled in desperation, “Get out! Get out of here!”
His expression instantly hardened. When he moved forward one step, she took two steps back in fright. Then, as they continued that way, Cassie was eventually forced to a wall. She slowly moved a bit to the side as she looked at him with fear.
“Don’t come near, June. Or I’ll really call the police,” she said while trembling. At that moment, she was indeed afraid of him. He was a madman. In good times, he treated her well and was obedient. However, the moment he lost control, he was no different from a lunatic. Both his words and actions were difficult to understand.
June stopped in his actions as he looked at her with a complicated gaze.
“Are you really scared of me, Cassie?”
“You’re a demon. You even wanted to kill me just now. Am I supposed to stay put and let you kill me? I’m not stupid,” she said in fear and disgust.
She then pointed to the door again and continued, “Either get out now or wait for me to call the police. I’ll sue you for attempted murder.”
It was as if June had heard a funny joke, for he laughed out loud then.
Cassie was puzzled. “What are you laughing at?”
“Why did your illness make you so stupid?” he asked while laughing.
Feeling angry from being shamed, she said, “Who are you calling a stupid? You’re stupid.”
When she said that, his gaze suddenly turned cold.
“You’re acting like a shrew now. Back when I met you, you were so innocent and lively, and you were so dependent on me. But now, you’re like a shrew that bites whoever she sees. In just a few months, your unique charms have disappeared. It makes me very sad, but what can I do? I still want you. As long as you’re obedient and listen to me, I’ll treat you like a princess. I’ll try my best to get you whatever you want.”
Cassie was angered by his remark. Hence, disregarding her fear, she shouted, “Get lost! Who cares about your love? My family’s rich. There are other men who will do what I want. You have no right to yell at me.”
After a brief pause, she said, “You’re just a dog in my eyes. No matter what I do to you, you’ll just wag your tail at me. I’ve never thought highly of you. You’re the first man I know that has no self-respect. How can you compare to Oscar?”
