Cheng Anya woke up feeling dizzy. The night had not passed and there was a bright moon hanging in the sky. Cheng Anya lost her focus for a while and was slightly confused, not knowing what day it was.
She must be dreaming!
She must be dreaming and had not gone out nor seen that ray of light from the top of the building. She also did not see the helicopter and how it fell into the sea. It was all a dream, just a scary dream.
Cheng Anya, don’t be afraid, it was no big deal.
She started to be in self-denial and her heart was aching. There was still sand in her nails, as if cruelly telling her that it was not a dream and that it had really happened. There was really a helicopter that was shot down and fell into the sea. She seemed to have heard people cheering victoriously and someone saying that Third Young Master Ye had finally died.
“Ah Chen…” No way… How could he die? She had not died yet. How did he dare to die?
If he really died before her, she would not let him off even if she became a ghost. Cheng Anya thought ruthlessly in her mind and felt that the pain was so unbearable that even her eyes were hurting and her tears flowed uncontrollably. It was more and more difficult to live each day.
She had always been optimistic, but now darkness was engulfing her little by little each day. She felt that if this continued, she might really give up hope and even her life. It was too painful for her.
She was trapped in a place and it was a type of despair that could not be described by words.
She knew that it would be sunshine and hoped that she could walk out of the place, but she could not get out no matter what. She was trapped in this tiny place to struggle and struggle. There was someone above coldly watching her.
This was a nightmare that one could not come out from no matter how calm and smart one was. After the wings were cut off, they could only be locked up and tortured as they slowly lost their hope.
Louis and Third Young Master Ye were indeed brothers. In some sense, their working style was the same. The brothers liked to torture people slowly so that they could enjoy the process of going from heaven to hell.
Louis did not kill her hope at once but slowly told her what would happen to Third Young Master Ye and herself. He then told them what would happen to them, giving her some hope before pushing her to hell.
Louis gave her freedom but she could not get out of the island. He gave her space, but she caused Zhang Bo to die.
He gave her the hope that Third Young Master Ye was coming, but she witnessed the cruel scene of the helicopter falling into the sea. What more did Louis want to do in order to be satisfied and end all the torture?
Cheng Anya did not know. She only knew that she hated him.
Cheng Anya carried Ning Ning to every hospital in London when Ning Ning had pneumonia. None of the hospitals could save him and she hated God for being ruthless. However, it could not compare to the hatred that she was feeling now. It was as if the hate had been entrenched in her bones and blood.
Cheng Anya would not hesitate if she could die together with Louis.
The moonlight shone on the floor. It was so gentle but cold. Cheng Anya was cold and hid in the blanket, but she still shivered.
The blanket seemed to be covered in a layer of ice. It was so cold that even her bones felt cold.
Cheng Anya’s head was dizzy and in pain. Therefore, her thoughts were slowed down as well. It was so slow that it seemed like everything looked blurry. There was a sudden blankness appearing in her mind and this feeling was very scary. It was like a drowning person floating in the sea but could not find a piece of floating wood to save her life.
This feeling was called hopelessness.
Tears dropped in the dark.
She could not remember which movie it was but there was a line that goes ‘weak people like darkness because darkness can hide all their weakness and helplessness, so even if you cry, darkness could help you hide it’.
She did not think much about it and felt that the lines were too extreme. She could only understand it now and these words were saying the truth.
Her feelings now were as what the movie had shown. She felt as if a knife was being twisted in her heart and her soul was crying. She was helpless, weak, and could only use darkness to cover it so that she would not let others see this side of her.
There were footsteps outside the door. It was not heavy but it was clear in the darkness. Cheng Anya raised her hand to wipe away her tears and her face looked cold. She could not care so much and wiped away her tears with the blanket.
She thought that she could not hide the redness of her eyes, but at least, the tears were gone.
She did not like to cry, even if she was humiliated. There was no way she would cry like a coward. But, for the past ten days, she almost cried as much as she did for her whole life. It was not for others but for herself.
The door was pushed open and Cheng Anya’s heart sank. She was familiar with that tall figure, the one that could torture her the most.
Louis.
He did not leave? What was happening? Cheng Anya was confused and sat up from the bed. Louis turned on the light and the cold room became bright.
The man was wearing a grey long windbreaker and was dressed in a charming manner. His actions were charismatic. He curled his lips and looked dangerous.
Cheng Anya had a sudden realization that he had set a trap for them. He did it on purpose. He said that he was leaving but he was actually on the island to make fun of them. Her heart sank and became fearful.
“What happened? Did you have a nightmare?” Louis smiled in a gentle manner and slowly walked closer. She would escape if she had a choice, but although the room was big, it was filled with his people. She had no place to escape and could only be trapped.
Nightmare? No, it was not a nightmare because Louis was a nightmare himself. Therefore, she did not have to dream of it as she could see it with her eyes open. She had never seen someone more cruel and heartless than him in her whole life.
“You didn’t leave?” Cheng Anya was almost certain that he knew what would happen. Louis’ intelligence was hidden very well and could hardly be seen clearly by people.
History had told them that tyrants were all smart children. For example King Zhou of Shang and Yang Guang.
A trace of a smile flashed past Louis’ emerald eyes. “I left, but I came back halfway. If not, how would I be able to enjoy such a good show?”
Cheng Anya was shocked and speechless. Louis smiled. “Can you guess what Third Young Master Ye did?”
She was silent as she did not want to hear Louis talk about what Third Young Master Ye did. She just wanted him to go away so that she could be alone.
She was muddleheaded just now, so she thought that Third Young Master Ye had met with an accident. Now that Louis looked like he was alright, she knew that her Ah Chen was fine and alive. Louis’ perverted insistence on Third Young Master Ye would not allow him to die so easily.
Her Ah Chen would not be so stupid. If he knew about this island, he would not come without any preparation as it would be courting death. How would he be so irrational in order to meet her?
He would not act recklessly without a complete plan.
“You’re not talking?” Louis curled his lips and sneered. “He bombed the headquarters in Sicily with three guided missiles. He sure is brave.”
Sicily’s headquarters? Wasn’t that the Mafia’s headquarters?
Bombed?
That’s good. Her baby used to say that they should bomb the Mafia’s headquarters. Who knew that her man did it first before her baby did anything. Good, it was good that they were bombed. No wonder Louis left in a hurry.
It turned out that his base was gone.
“Congratulations that your base is gone. The new one doesn’t come if the old one is not gone. You can rebuild it since it is now gone.” Cheng Anya sneered and a trace of red appeared on her pale face. Ah Chen must have lost all his patience.
If not, he would not be so reckless.
Ning Ning had said before that they could not bomb the Mafia’s headquarters. Therefore, no matter how much Jason hated Louis or how much the young kid did not like him, nobody dared to touch his base. After all, the price to pay was high if they became enemies with the Mafia.
The loss outweighed the gain!
Ah Chen was most likely beyond endurance. She could imagine how he had endured. If not, he would not bomb them only after so many days. He would have bombed them earlier instead.
Louis was laughing and so was Cheng Anya. But, she laughed in an uneasy manner.
“Anya, can you guess why I came back halfway?” Louis asked.
“I don’t know.” She was lazy to guess. She was not the same type of person as Louis. Other than thinking about Third Young Master Ye, she was too lazy to think about other things as Louis was not worth it. “Leave if you don’t want to say it. I want to rest.”
She chased him away coldly.
Louis’ face went dark. “Because I figured out that he was forcing me to go away and trying to lure the tiger out of the mountains. But, I did not do as he wished. Are you disappointed? Even if he came, you couldn’t get out of this island.”
“Louis, you will contradict yourself one day.”
Louis’ face looked ruthless. Whenever Cheng Anya was so rude, he wanted to strangle her ruthlessly and break her neck. This woman was always very arrogant. Although she looked gentle and she had even cried before, she still looked so arrogant.
He could not endure any longer and mercilessly strangled Cheng Anya’s neck. His gaze was fierce. “Anya, sometimes I really want to strangle you to death like this and cremate you so that Third Young Master Ye will not be able to find you forever. Isn’t this good?”
“You don’t have the guts!” Cheng Anya smiled sweetly. Anyone who saw her would think that she had a bright smile. Louis’ eyes darkened and the muscles on his handsome face were twisted. His emerald eyes were so malicious and insidious. He raised his hands and slapped Cheng Anya’s face until it sunk in.
Cheng Anya continued to smile. He was indeed gutless.
“I am gutless, but I slept with Third Young Master Ye. You say that I am gutless?” Louis laughed maliciously.
