My Second Husband novel Chapter 490

Amos remained silent. Kesha shot a cold glance at Steven.

"What did you say? Don't think that I'll forgive you just because of what you said. It's too late, Steven! It's over!"

Crimson blood flowed out from the corner of Steven's mouth as he smiled at Kesha.

"I'm sorry, Kesha. I'm sorry that I was a coward. I didn't know that I hurt you. If I had known, I would not have been like that! I admit that I was just messing around with you when we first got together. But then, I really thought of marrying you... That's why I was so frustrated when I saw you smiling at other people..."

Kesha glared at Steven fiercely.

"I've told you many times, you're a fool! Did you really think that I would come crawling back to you, or even feel guilty about killing you? No, I'm telling you now that I will never!"

Steven shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter anymore! Maybe my whole life is just a joke."

Because he was brought up in the Granger family, outsiders thought that he had everything served to him on a silver platter, and many envied him for that.

However, little did they know that he was just the worthless nephew of the Granger family.

His family wasn't given the right to feel happy, and they were basically powerless. In fact, they never were labeled as the prestigious Granger family in the eyes of the outsiders. However, they still had to be cautious in their words and behavior to make sure that they didn't bring shame to the family.

In other words, they never had the chance to enjoy the privileges that the main family had. The worst part was that they still had to be responsible for their wrongdoings nonetheless.

The only thing he could do was to obey the main branch and not stir up any trouble, and maybe if the main branch was happy, they might share some of their fortunes. Only in this way could he abandon his miserable life there and start fresh.

He grew up hearing his parents' complaints to the point that he thought about working hard to change his fate.

However, in the end, he found that it was too much to handle. He got tired as well.

Now, he finally didn't need to care who the main family was and who held the absolute power. He could finally live for himself peacefully. He prayed that he wouldn’t be born into such a complicated family in his next life.

It didn't matter if they were peasants busy growing crops every day, at least, they would be happier. They would wake up at sunrise, start working, and stop at sunset every day. This life was all his heart desired...

The police had come back with those thugs arrested. Harley was appalled at the sight of Amos in his bloody clothes.

"What's going on? Kesha, what have you done?"

Harley's voice brought Steven's thoughts back to reality.

He grabbed Harley hurriedly by the hem of his pants. "Officer Louis, it's not Kesha! I did it! I did all of this!"

Harley frowned, "Steven, are you stupid? You're badly wounded, don't tell me you stabbed yourself?"

"It... It doesn't matter who hurt me! Everything else was all me! Please let go of Kesha..."

"Steven! Could you stop speaking nonsense? Are you saying that you were the one who pushed Kesha's mother down the stairs? We checked the surveillance footage. You didn't even show up at the George's that day. How are you going to explain that?"

"It... It's me. Officer Louis, trust me, it's really me."

His idea was actually very clear and simple. He was going to die anyway, he might as well give Kesha another chance at life.

However, Harley hated evil. It was what he fought against all his life. He won't fall for Steven's trick that easily.

Kesha looked at Steven's bloody body beside her. At a moment like this, why was he still protecting her?

"You id*ot!" She raised her voice and interrupted Steven.

"I don't need you to help me beg for mercy! You make me sick!"

Steven was still smiling the way he did when they first met.

At that time, his smile looked extremely attractive. Otherwise, Kesha would not have fallen for him that easily.

"Didn't you say that I owed you? I'm helping you now."
