Nemesis Game

Chapter 87 The Price of Rebirth

With that, Ruben went for her before Samantha could react.

He grabbed her by her wrist, the collar scattered on the shoulder grasped by his fingers. She could

even feel the continuous spread of coldness from him.

She held her breath, her voice trembling. "Well? Is Mr. Knight dissatisfied with my sincerity?"

His eyes were already full of fury. His fingers clenched her collar, and his eyes were so cold that they

were like thin blades, penetrating her chest.

"Satisfied?" asked him coldly, staring at her pale face.

At this moment, the whole car was very quiet. The shadow of the tree outside the window was shaking,

and the bright light of the fire was carved on his beautiful face.

"Helena, who do you think you are? There are so many women who want to sleep with me! Why do

you think I'll like you?" He was so furious that he wanted to cut off her hand like this.

Did she think that he saved her just to have sex with her?

Ruben was this kind of person in her eyes?

He was angry for some reason. He was not that kind of person. He saved her just because...

All of a sudden, he was confused. Yes, why did he save her?

As soon as he received Clara's phone call, he came over without even considering how much trouble it

would bring him.

But he still came without hesitation.

At this moment, he didn't want to find out why he came. He was just angry that she judged him in this

way.

Samantha looked back at him with an unyielding attitude. Their eyes met with each other and sparkled

in the silent air.

Instead of being angry, she smiled. She patted his hand and pulled down her cheongsam with the other

hand, revealing everything to him.

"Knock it off. Isn't that what you want? Why else did you save me? I don't like to owe others. You can

take everything I have. "

Samantha tore her cheongsam, and the sound of tearing cloth and silk was very clear in the silent air.

The cloth on her chest broke, revealing her fair and ruddy skin, as well as the dazzling burned skin!

Ruben's stared his eyes at her chest, and he was stunned to see the ugly burn hovering around her

white chest like a tree root.

Samantha's face suddenly changed when she saw his inquiring eyes. She was in a hurry to pull the

broken cheongsam to wrap the burn.

The burn on her body could not be hidden, even if it was recovered.

She was flustered like a frightened rabbit.

"Have you been burned by..." Ruben asked in a hoarse voice. He had mixed feelings, looking at her

burned skin.

Fire...

Being burned...

The man’s word reminded Samantha of that bloody night.

She was engulfed in a sea of fire.

Being rescued by Gabriel, she was severely burned, like a living dead. She was wrapped in bandages Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

and lay on the hospital bed for a whole month.

In the beginning, she couldn't even eat. She was in pain. She went through surgeries again and again.

When she changed the dressing, the bandage tore the scar again and again. She often cried all night.

She didn't know why she was still alive, and why she had to live like that. When she was lying there for

a month, she had thought about biting her tongue and killing herself countless times.

Because it was too painful like boiling water broke the festering wound. With the sharp pain through her

soul, she was so painful that her skin and flesh seemed to be reduced to ashes.

She was unable to stand it.

If she was going to live in this way, she would rather die.

But Gabriel told her that was the price of rebirth.

As a result, the day and night by the torture had become a strong support for her to live on.

"Ruben..." She was very emotional and she said with red eyes, "Let me go, I don't want to see you, I

don't want to see you..."

If she looked at him again, she would repeatedly remember the pain that had been engraved into her

soul.

She was going crazy. She frantically broke his hand with her hand, regardless of her broken

cheongsam.

But she didn't care. She just wanted to run away from him!

The pain and despair given by him suffocated her.

She didn't want to stay here.

"I didn't mean to hurt you. If you go on like this, who are you going to go to? Let me take you to the

hospital.” Ruben quickly grabbed her wrist and pulled her back into the car when she tried to open the

door.

Samantha lost balance and bumped into his hard chest. She got more emotional as if she was trapped

in a nightmare.

"Let me go. I don't want to see you," she cried out, shaking her head. Her eyes were glistening with

tears.

Every time she saw his face, those hidden painful memories would emerge.

However, the wound which took her so much effort to become scarred was severely torn again and

again.

"Don't want to see me, then who do you want to see?" Ruben asked, knowing what she meant. He said

with cold and gloomy eyes, "Do you want to find Gabriel? You're going to Gabriel!"

Samantha forced a smile, tears welling up in her eyes. "Anyone, as long as it's not you."

She closed her eyes in despair and choked out every word.

Ruben's calmness and reason disappeared, and all his anger was ignited by this sentence.

"Anyone except me? You're lying to me again. Do you want to see Gabriel? Then I'll tell you, to keep

your position, Gabriel was broken by his father! Now he’s imprisoned by his family. You can't see him.

You'll never see him!" Ruben said directly.

But she was not trying to see Gabriel, and she would never depend on him.

In this bumpy future, she was destined to walk alone.

She shed tears sadly, and her whole body was shivering with coldness.

"You haven't told me what happened to you? Have you ever been burned?" he asked as he was

reluctant to let her go.

Samantha raised her head and looked at him quietly with her scarlet eyes. She clenched her hands,

wishing to tear up the burn on her chest.

She wanted to ruin herself like this.

To remember the hatred, she did not treat the wound on her chest.

She was to punish herself, punish Samantha who used to be stupid and cowardly.

Every time the wound hurt, she was reminded of her hatred for him.

She was afraid that he would find out that she was Samantha, but she could not suppress her anger.

She roared hysterically, "Yes, I have been burned... I almost died in a sea of fire. Are you

satisfied?"
