Chapter 612
Henry’s gaze was fixed on her with fierce intensity.
“Henry Bennett, are you crazy! What are you doing?” uid Edie. She struggled as she was pinned against the tree trunk, but Henry held her wrists in avier–like grip
She glares at Henry with a venomous look.
Looking at the rage in Henry’s eyes. Edie didn’t get angry. Instead, she smiled calmly.
“What Do you want to kill me?” Edie asked. Her eyes were full of mockery as she looked up at him when her body was pressed against him.
Henry stared back at her. Seeing the amusement in her eyes, Henry felt inexplicably panickeil
“Do you think that you could kill me, Henry!” Edie lowered her voice and breathed into his ear.
Henry was getting irritated. He released her wrist, and his hand wandered over her body, stopping at her neck and squeezing hard.
“A” A sharp pain shot through Henry’s body and spread from his heart when he had just exerted his force
Henry clutched his chest. The pain was so intense that he felt like it was tearing his insides apart. He was sweating profusely from the pain, and his body trembling uncontrollably
“Trying to use me? Didn’t anyone tell you not to mess with the Simpsons! You’re not qualified to kill me.” Edie sneered and flicked her sleeve.
She looked at the coffee cup she had just broken and shook her head, saying. “What a pity. Such a beautiful cup is broken just like that”
the feeling
Edie said it lightly, but Henry felt something invisible attacking him, suffocating him. It was only when Edie walked away disappeared.
He almost collapsed to the ground, watching her leave in disbelief.
that
“How could this be?” said Henry. A flicker of confusion flashed across his eyes.
He had gone so far as to use Edie to gain access to better resources back then, even engaging in ambiguity with her. They were manure adults, and each with their own needs.
As things spiraled out of his control, the Bennett Group crumbled under public pressure, facing a financial crisis. He had hoped to leverage her connection to the Stewart family to help him out of trouble.
His mind seemed clouded during that time, and he married her in a moment of desperation.
He assumed that once they were married, he would have a foothold in both the Stewart family and the Simpson family. However, everything unfolded in a direction he couldn’t control
Not only did the Stewart family not offer him any assistance, but even the Simpson family didn’t allow him through the door.
The only exception was when Edie appeared with Quinton and gave Henry a beating. Afterward, Henry couldn’t even remember what Quinton looked like as if something had forcefully erased that part of his memory
“Ugh” Henry collapsed to the ground in agony
A splitting headache pulsed through him as if the pain in his chest had migrated to his head.
Only after Edir’s figure disappeared did the pain gradually subside. An unprecedented sense of fear welled up within Henry, leading him to wonder if he had fallen into a trap set by the Simpson family.
“No! Edic must have some issues, Henry said coldly.
As he got up to go back to Bennett Villa, he saw Oliver in front of the floor–to–ceiling windows on the second floor, staring thoughtfully at him.
“Come up for a cup of coffee! Oliver said trim
Henry was silent for a while, then he went upstairs to Oliver’s bedroom. The room was pitch black. The curtains were drawn although it was broad daylight
In the darkness of the bedroom, three lit candles could be vaguely seen.
Chapter 612
“Your wife is quite something, Oliver said.
He sat in a dark corner. His rocking chair swayed gently, making his figure look, ethereal as if he didn’t belong there a
“What do you mean?” Henry’s heart skipped a heal.
He looked at Oliver with some confusion but did not approach him
Oliver said calmily, “Your inner desires are magnified, this devouring your reason and luck. And when your desires take hold of your reason, your body will protest once you want to come to your schises.
“Ridit now, yoni only feel the pain in your chest and head. After a long while, your desires will spread to your limbs. When that happens, you will die suddenly if you resist.”
Henry felt like he understood each of his words but didn’t at the same time.
Henry stood there still, staring at Oliver cautionddy.
Oliver said calmly, “Tilie has been in the Stewart family for so many years and even managed to leave unscathed. She has also been able to bring The Simpson family to its current pissition. She may not be as simple as you think.”
Oliver seemed to be reminding Heary or deliberately attempted to let him know
Henry stood there, staring at Oliver for a long time. He saw Oliver’s pale lace as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.
As time passed. Henry didn’t say anything more. Then he turned around and strode away
Bing” The moment the door closed, Brandon walked out from the commer.
After his left eye was eaten, it was now covered with gauze, revealing only his right eye, which looked weird.
“Are you going to take advantage of him?” Brandon stared at Henry’s departing figure, seemingly displeased.
Oliver did not speak. Instead, he looked up at Brandon indifferently.
The luck of each one of the people in the Bennett family is worse than the Est. You think I would take a fancy to them?” Oliver sneered. He slowly stood up but felt a sharp pain in his chest.
Then he spurted a mouthful of blood.
Oliver’s body swayed a few times. He hurriedly raised his hand and began to make a divination.
The more he did it, the more blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth, making it impossible for him to hold on any longer. He fell back into the rocking chair.
He stared at his fingertips in horror. Seeing that something was wrong with his expression, Brandon quickly asked, “What happened?”
“Someone broke my plant” Oliver said in horror.
His plans were broken one
r after another. Every time our was broken, he would suffer a backlash. His body had been severely injured, and he hadn’t fully recovered yet. Now he was being backlashed again.
The other party was biting him tightly as if they wanted to kill him in
“Broke your plan!” Brandon was also taken aback
He burried to the floor–to–ceiling window and looked down at Bennien Villa, but he didn’t see Windsor’s car come back.
“Oliver’s voice trembled slightly as he said, “Windsor didn’t come back. But the thing in his body was activated. The talisman that suppressed him was broken. How could this be? His soul and shadow should have been replaced alter three years.
“He couldn’t have broken free at all. Three years was enough for these things to occupy his body. How could they be beaten back to their original
form now?”
And his words were like a time bomb.
“It seems the resentment of the Bennett family is not strong enough. They even want to break free from the cage and escape. It seems the Bennett family needs to be hit hunder” Oliver mattered to himself.
Brandon stood there, still sileni

The room was pitch black, and the silence made it even more ecrie, like the underworld.
