He had gone insane!
Henry and Henry wanted to stop him, but the knife was already in his flesh. If they were to interfere, the blade might be embedded even deeper into his chest!
Henry would lose it soon! He stepped forward and anxiously said, “Eldest Brother, this is…”
“I don’t want to be with you!” Elena suddenly yelled and ran toward the table, not far away from them.
Michael was utterly dumbfounded. Thousands of possibilities floated in his mind, but he never thought that she would rather die than to stay with him. His grip loosened because of the slight confusion, and it allowed Elena to pull her hand away from his.
The knife fell to the ground with a clatter. He watched as she bumped against the marble table, but he did not react fast enough to stop her. Henry inhaled sharply and rushed toward Elena with Henry. Fortunately, they were able to stop her before she cracked her head onto the corners of the table.
“It hurts…” Elena suddenly clutched her stomach. Her face turned pale in an instant.
It was only then that Michael snapped back to his senses. He wanted to comfort her, but he could hear her voice as she called out softly, “Henry, Henry…”
“Don’t be scared. I’m here! I’m here! Don’t be afraid!”
Henry helped her up, and she fell into his arms.
As she tried to endure the pain from her abdomen, she muttered, “Take me away, please, take me away.”
Henry noticed that she had lost all the colors in her complexion. He looked at Michael before he picked Elena into his arms.
“This is my fault, Big Brother! I’ll come back and let you deal with me later! Please let us leave for now!”
Elena buried her head in his arms and grasped his shirt tightly. She was in such tremendous pain that her forehead dripped in a cold sweat. No one knew about the pain she was in, only that she treated Henry like the anchor to her life.
Michael had always assumed that her refuge was himself. He thought he could shield her from the elements until the day his life ended. However, she had decided to look for another shelter—a world someone else had crafted for her.
Elena’s body continued to tremble. At first glance, her palm-sized face was pale and unappealing. The situation did not look too optimistic.
Even Henry was worried about her. “Eldest Brother…”
“LEAVE!” Michael clenched his fists tightly.
His face looked worse than Elena’s! Henry knew how difficult it was for him to say that. However, they could no longer turn back.
“Big Brother…”
“I’m telling you to LEAVE!”
Michael suddenly raised his fist and punched the marble table. The corner of the table shattered with a loud bang!
Elena gasped and shuddered even more.
He could even break marble! He was very strong!
Eldest Young Master Williams’s two punches on Henry had been very light. Would Henry still be alive had Michael punched him with the same force?
Henry’s head snapped back. He tightened his grip on Elena and quickly headed out of the wooden house.
In the open space outside, some of the comrades glance at their direction with curiosity. They were used to living life at the edge of the sword, and so they would not pay much attention to other people’s affairs. Such things did not interest them.
Therefore, it had not attracted too much attention when Henry left with Elena.
When they reached the speedboat, he placed her down and whispered, “Don’t panic, things are over, for now, we…”
“I… My stomach hurts.” Elena grabbed his shirt, and her hands continued to tremble.
With the moonlight as their only source of light, Henry could see that her face was covered in sweat.
“Don’t panic, we’ll take you to the hospital immediately. Don’t be scared!”
Ashton had been waiting on the boat, and he had no idea what had happened. He panicked when he saw Elena’s condition. He started the speedboat immediately and drove to the other side of the coast at the fastest speed.
The man inside the wooden house could not hear the sound of the sea, but he could detect the speedboat engine’s sound as it tore across the ocean.
She had left. She had chosen another man and went with him. Michael did not know how he felt about that. Perhaps it was anger, or maybe it was despair.
Everything in front of him became a blur. It was as though a flurry of voices fluttered around him. Finally, those voices gathered into one sentence: I love him; it’s him, it’s him!
He did not even realize that the blood in his chest had reached his lips. It tasted sweet and metallic, and despite his attempts to suppress it several times, it had finally reached a point where it could finally pop.
Scarlet blood sprayed all over the floor, and his tall body fell onto the ground with a loud thud.
“Eldest Brother!” Henry panicked.
Henry had remained by his brother’s side for so many years, and he had never seen him collapse. Henry felt like it was all his fault. Tears stung his eyes, and it made him sorely uncomfortable.
“Ryan! Ryan!” He held Michael in his arms and shouted at the door, “Ryan! Get in here!”
Michael’s pale face and bloodied body hurt Henry’s heart deeply. He thought that his brother’s life would be better if Elena were to leave him.
He thought that his eldest brother would no longer have any weaknesses as long as that woman was gone. Paradise Island would have been nothing to him!
He thought that everything he did was for the sake of his eldest brother. In the end, however, it was all a presupposition.
Ryan, who heard the yell, rushed into and saw Henry on the ground with an unconscious Michael. The expression on his face changed, and he sped forward to check on Michael.
“Emotion-induced hematemesis!”
Ryan was not only proficient with Western medicine, but he also did a lot of research on traditional Chinese prescriptions.
He had read about the condition for many years, but he had never seen it occur in real life. Ryan panicked too because it meant that Michael had suffered significant damages to his internal organs!
“Hurry up and send him to the medical room!”
Henry carefully lifted Michael into his arms and marched to the medical room with Ryan.
He was the one who hurt his eldest brother! It was all because of him! If he did not say all those things to Elena, she would not have done what she did with Henry.
The tacit understanding between the two of them was better than anyone would have ever imagined. Otherwise, they would not have been able to trick Michael.
Furthermore, it was also obvious that Henry cared about Elena. His brother must have noticed that too. Otherwise, how could they have deceived Michael?
Did his action push Elena toward Henry?
What about his eldest brother? Could he really become stronger without that woman by his side?
