My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 2069

She had been Nathan's wife for a very long time, he was everything to her. It was due to her own twisted evil belief of treating all living creatures as unimportant trash that allowed her to accept the things Nathan had done.

With her lips chapped, Suanne begged hoarsely, "You're right. I'm not worthy. I've committed a grave mistake. I'll repent for my sins. I'll definitely stop your father from doing these things from now. Let us go, spare your father, and let him live. He's such a proud man, he'll never admit to his mistakes. I'll apologize on his behalf. I'll apologize on his behalf that he was wrong. Your dad hasn't said a single word since last night. He'll die if things continue this way. You shouldn't be so cruel, my son..."

Her throat, which hadn't been moistened with water in days, only allowed her to speak all of that in one breath. Some of the things she said were incomprehensible. She was, however, persistent in trying to plead for forgiveness.

When faced with death, pride and dignity meant nothing. Everything Nathan valued couldn't be exchanged for even a single chance to breathe for he had ruined countless lives, including Hendrix's.

The basement shook with Suanne's wails. The whole place became overbearingly depressing.

After a moment of silence, Hendrix stuffed his hands into his pockets and gave the order, "Untie them."

Suanne thought that they were finally getting released. She excitedly put her palms together and prayed while she knocked her head against the floor, thanking Hendrix. "Thank you, my son. Thank you, my son. I've always known you were merciful..."

"Well, you don't actually know me." Hendrix interrupted her mid-sentence to provoke her. He raised his voice and barked out an order, "Throw them out at the busiest upscale business district, make them kneel, cry and beg for food and water, especially towards those they have looked down upon. Get everyone's attention to see the once dignified and noble members of the Marshall family."

Such humiliation would be a devastating blow to Nathan. I noticed Hendrix gritting his teeth, I could understand why.

The man who had given him his life had once wanted to take it back. He had been lucky enough to escape and survive up till now.
