Chapter 817 I Just Want You Dead
"I can make it up to you." Seeing Ruby about to leave, Craig grabbed her wrist, clearly not wanting her to go just like that.
Ruby looked at him and said somewhat helplessly, "Some wounds can't be healed just because you wish."
"Ruby, maybe I didn't know how to love someone before. At least give me a chance to learn and grow." Craig looked at her, showing a side of himself he rarely revealed. To Ruby, this moment was heartwarming.
After all, he was someone she had loved. How could she just stop loving him so easily? It wasn't that simple.
But she was also rational.
Even though she still had feelings for him, she knew that they were not suitable for each other. Even if they got back together and Craig changed, they still wouldn't have a happy ending.
Since that was the case, why waste time?
She shook off Craig's hand and said to him, "What does it have to do with me? You can learn it step by step, but you shouldn't step on me to do it."
"Ruby..." He wanted to say more, but his phone rang urgently.
He was about to hang up, but seeing the caller, he chose to answer.
Quickly, his expression changed, and even Ruby noticed the sudden shift, realizing something must have happened.
But what did that have to do with her?
At the thought of it, she decided to leave while Craig was on the phone.
"Evelyn is in trouble," Craig suddenly said, seeing her about to leave.
Ruby froze, looking back at him in disbelief. "What did you say?"
Craig didn't answer immediately. He waited for the person on the other end to finish speaking, then put away his phone. "Someone planted a bomb at the venue and is holding Evelyn as the hostage. It's very dangerous. I have to go there now. We'll talk about us another day."
He hadn't given up, but he didn't plan to stay. He needed to get to the venue and find a way to get everyone out.
Of course, his main concern was saving Dermot.
"I'm going with you." At this moment, Ruby couldn't care less about keeping her distance from Craig. If Evelyn was in trouble, she had to go.
Craig frowned, not wanting to take her along. "It's dangerous."
"I know, but I have to go." Without waiting for Craig to say more, she walked straight to his car, clearly determined to go with him.
With that, Craig didn't say more. He knew Ruby's personality. Even if he didn't take her, she would find her own way there. So, it was better to keep her by his side, where he could at least protect her.
The two quickly headed to the venue. Meanwhile, Eugene was extremely agitated.
"You're right, I have no other purpose but just want you dead. I want the Kyte family and the Allen family to be destroyed. I want all of you to die." Eugene looked at everyone excitedly, waving the remote control in his hand, as if he would press the button at any moment.
Everyone's hearts were in their throats, and they all stepped back. No matter where the other bombs were, they at least needed to keep their distance from Eugene.
Evelyn appeared very calm. In fact, she could easily subdue Eugene at this moment, but with the remote control in his hand, she feared she wouldn't be able to snatch it quickly enough, which would open up a chance for Eugene to press the button. So, she didn't dare to move.
As she was worrying, a red dot suddenly appeared on Eugene's shoulder but quickly disappeared.
Eugene didn't notice, but Evelyn did immediately.
