Chapter 13 I Sent People to Hit You
Confronted with Eric’s composed gaze, Kate understood that George had informed him, yet she still lifted her head proudly and cheerfully stated, “I simply asked George to give Simon a lesson. He kept bombarding me with unwanted messages to harass me and even attempted to sabotage: our relationship. He deserved to be taught a lesson.”
Observing her bright eyes and intentional boasting, Eric’s earlobes turned slightly red.
He shifted his gaze and simply replied, “Hmm.”
He witnessed her wielding the stick to strike someone, resembling a cute little tiger displaying its teeth and claws.
It even gave him the impression that she, like him, possessed a hint of madness.
However, she should remain untainted. He can bear these dirty things alone. He was already. engulfed in darkness, burdened with guilt and shame. She was a pure and radiant light, not meant to be dragged into the darkness by him.
Eric suddenly spoke, “Next time, refrain from engaging in such actions yourself. It’s unseemly.”
Kate was momentarily stunned. Then, she raised her eyebrows and smiled at him. As she smiled, tears involuntarily streamed down her face.
Eric always thinks about her, regardless of the circumstances.
Observing the tears on her face, Eric frowned once more. He pursed his thin lips, and adopted at more sombre demeanour, asking, “Why are you crying?”
Kate smiled as she wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes and replied, “I’m touched.”
Her voice lowered. She gazed at Eric with great sincerity and softly uttered, “Ric, I was foolish in the past, intentionally made you unhappy and angry. I will not repeat it in the future.”
He gazed steadily at her and responded with a “Hmm,” then a small curve involuntarily appeared at the corner of his lips as he averted his gaze.
Meanwhile, on the staircase of the first floor, Simon struggled and removed the sack from his head. He cursed as he stood up unsteadily.
The areas on his body that had been struck by fists and sticks throbbed with pain, especially the blow to his head, which still caused his head to buzz. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

His eyes brimmed with intense hatred. Then, he retrieved his phone trembly and opened the camera, deliberately choosing an angle to make him look more miserable. He took a few photos.

‘Kate, did that lunatic Eric control you again? You must not provoke him. You have to protect yourself and avoid that lunatic!”
Meanwhile, Kate couldn’t help but burst into laughter upon receiving these photos.
“Hahaha! Ric, look at Simon. His face is nearly swollen like pumpkin!”
She promptly showed her phone to Eric, with a smile on her face, displaying no hint of sympathy for Simon.
Eric’s gaze lingered on her radiant smile for a moment. Then, he glanced at the message Simon had sent on her phone.
Kate also noticed the message. She immediately pouted and remarked, “This Simon, he was still beaten too lightly. He dares to call my husband crazy! This rabid dog that bites randomly…
She gritted her teeth fiercely while swiftly typing a response on the keyboard, ‘I was the one who sent the people to hit you. Are there any issues?‘
Upon receiving this message, Simon widened his eyes in shock. His face was contorted.
What? The person who beat me was sent by Kate?
He gripped his phone tightly, shaking with anger, his thoughts were in chaos. What was Kate’s intention?
He initially suspected Eric sent those people, only to discover that it was Kate instead. Could it be that this seemingly carefree young lady had uncovered something?
