Seeing Ulric rushing towards her with his bloodshot eyes, Sirena turned pale with fright.
Luckily, she reacted quickly and snatched the dagger from the man closest to her, pressing it against Rosalind’s neck!
“Ulric, if you dare to touch me, I’ll make Rosalind die with me!”
Ulric was now furious, his black eyes burning crimson like blood! Seeing Rosalind, barely alive and covered in wounds, he wished he could flay Sirena alive!
“Let her go!”
“I won’t!” Sirena tightened her grip on Rosalind’s neck, and the dagger gleamed, piercing her jugular vein. “If you take one step closer, I’ll cut Rosalind’s throat first!”
Ulric abruptly stopped in his tracks, and the people who had followed him quickly surrounded Sirena. Cedric rushed in, taking in the situation before rescuing Tilda and Floyd and sending them to the hospital for treatment.
He knew that Sirena wouldn’t be able to escape today anyway!
“Ulric, even now, you’re still obsessed with this despicable woman! Can’t you see how much I’ve sacrificed for you?” Sirena laughed like a madwoman. The tip of the dagger had already cut through Rosalind’s skin, causing fresh blood to flow and staining both the dagger and Sirena’s hand.
But this pain finally brought Rosalind back to consciousness.
In a daze, she saw Ulric standing in front of her.
Rosalind thought she was dreaming…
Ulric’s voice was forced out between his teeth, and his icy tone sent shivers down everyone’s spines. “Let her go. I can spare your life, but if Rosalind dies, I will make sure you suffer worse than death!”
“I have already experienced suffering worse than death! I loved you so deeply that I even allowed myself to be violated and humiliated for the sake of the Walters family! Do you know what it feels like to have men strip me naked and drag me around? Do you know what it feels like to have them burn me with cigarettes and force bottles into my body? You don’t know! Your mother should have known all of this!”
“Enough! None of this has anything to do with Rosalind! Let her go. If you want revenge, come at me!” Ulric didn’t want to listen to her. His black eyes remained fixed on Rosalind.
She was being held hostage so quietly, covered in blood stains with torn clothes that barely concealed her body. If it weren’t for the slight rise and fall of her chest, it would be hard to tell if she was still alive!
That was the woman he couldn’t bring himself to scold!
“I want to take revenge on you too! But I can’t bring myself to do it! Ulric, I just can’t!” Sirena screamed, her voice breaking as tears streamed down her face. “It’s all because of Rosalind! It’s because she’s by your side that you ignore me. Ulric, if she dies, we can be together!”
“Don’t hurt her! Sirena, we need to handle our issues alone. Let Rosalind go!” Ulric said firmly, trying to stabilize Sirena’s emotions.
He was terrified that this madwoman might impulsively drive that dagger into Rosalind’s neck!
“Handle it?” Sirena looked up at him, her eyes filled with anger, but even more with disappointment and obsession. “Fine, then I want you to kneel and propose to me right now!”
