Chapter 96 Desperation
The bathrobe completely concealed what should have been alluring. But he didn't seem bothered. Compared to those women who stripped naked and seduced him immediately, this situation made him feel like he was unwrapping a present.
"Eric, if you stop now and let me go, I can promise not to tell Darwin."
As Eric closed in, Fiona stepped back. "You're right about what you just said, but there's one thing you still don't understand. Darwin won't easily forgive someone who messes with his things. Even if he doesn't do anything on the surface, he will definitely find a way to ruin you from behind."
Fiona remained calm and continued speaking in a low voice. Eric's expression softened for a moment. Of course, he had thoroughly researched Darwin before considering cooperation with him. He knew how cunning Darwin could be behind the scenes. But... "Neither of us is an easy opponent," Eric said, his voice filled with determination. How could a few words possibly make him give up on obtaining Fiona? "I don't think he would go to great lengths to confront me for a woman, considering we would both end up losing in the end."
Upon hearing this, Fiona almost felt like there was no way to persuade Eric to stop.
Then there was only one way left.
"Darling, stop resisting. We are all adults. Just consider it a new experience and see how I am different from Darwin!"
Fiona had no choice.
Eric seemed to be losing patience as well. Approaching her, he roughly lifted her and threw her onto the bed. Fiona recoiled. Seeing her reaction, Eric became even more satisfied. Kneeling on the bed, he reached out to grab Fiona's foot. Fiona pulled back.
No...
How could she seriously injure Eric with such a small pair of scissors?
She thought for a moment. Instead, she gritted her teeth. She looked at Eric and said, "Can you... not use those things?"
Seeing her change in attitude, Eric became excited. "Darling, these are all good things. Didn't Darwin play with you like this? Don't be afraid, it won't hurt!"
"No!"
Fiona thanked herself for playing the delicate role in front of Darwin for so many years. Even if it meant enduring Eric's disgust, she could do it effortlessly. Listening to her soft and charming voice, Eric felt as if he had been struck by something.
Before he could regain his composure, she continued, "At least... not this time. Let's take it step by step..."
This time? So she was willing to have a next time? Eric was elated. "Alright, darling, you decide!"
Speaking, Eric lunged at Fiona. No matter the image of a gentleman, he couldn't bear to restrain himself for another second.
However...
Just as he was about to kiss Fiona.
Fiona suddenly raised her hand. Immediately, Eric felt a sharp pain in his right eye.
"Ah!!!" A scream pierced the night.
Fiona quickly pulled out a small pair of scissors, stumbled and rolled off the bed, ran to the door, and locked it!
"You fucker!" Eric covered his bloodied eye.
"I warned you!" Fiona gritted her teeth.
There came knocking on the door from outside.
"I'll kill you!!" Eric covered his eyes, coated in blood, and pounced on Fiona.
If there were no weapons just now. There were plenty here. Fiona picked up a whip and forcefully swung it when Eric came at her. It was lucky shot. The whip hit Eric's face directly.
"Ah!!" Another scream.
By now, the knocking outside had turned into banging on the door.
In a daze, Fiona could also hear a rumbling sound. She didn't have time to think about it. She continued swinging the whip. Then she moved towards the window, knowing that it wouldn't be long before the people outside forced their way in. She couldn't fall into Eric's hands, not even in death!
"You bitch!" Eric, with a blinded eye and being whipped repeatedly, was completely enraged.
He was much taller than Fiona. Finding an opening, he grabbed the whip that was swung at him and yanked it with force. Fiona lost her balance and took a step forward.
"Crack!"
The bloody whip fell to the ground. A slap landed on her face. In an instant, a constant buzzing filled her ears, and the person in front of her appeared as a blur. The next second, Eric threw himself at her. No matter how romantic or not romantic it was, he was completely furious. His big hand tightly grabbed Fiona's neck.
"You shameless thing!! Die! Die!!!"
At first, Fiona struggled. But Eric's strength was too great. Slowly, she lost her energy, and her breathing completely stopped. Soon, Fiona's pupils began to dilate.
At the critical moment, the door opened. Fiona, with her blurred consciousness, saw many people rushing in. Fortunately, she was about to be strangled to death.
That's what Fiona thought. When she died, would Darwin come back to collect her body?
Would there be an autopsy? Then would he know that she was carrying his baby? Perhaps she was about to die.
Fiona suddenly thought... Although he was willing to keep the child, she should have told him.
If she had, even if the child would be given away, at least he would live, right? Filled with regret, Fiona slowly closed her eyes. At this moment, Eric, who was pressing on her, was pulled away by someone.
"Fiona!!"
A familiar voice came from a faraway place. “Darwin... Is he here to collect her body?” That's what Fiona thought. Her consciousness was completely enveloped by darkness.
Eric was a very careful person when it came to doing things. At first, Darwin couldn't find anything. After Fiona disappeared, there were vehicles going in and out of the sanatorium.
It took some time to finally see a suspicious person leaving while pushing a suitcase through an abandoned passage.
After identifying the suspicious person, he checked the electronic surveillance. He saw several suspicious vehicles heading in different directions. That's when Darwin realized. The other party wasn't afraid of him not finding Fiona. They were intentionally buying time. During this period, Darwin had no idea what Fiona might have encountered. Darwin was going crazy.
After putting in a lot of effort, Darwin finally located Eric's suburban mansion.
He called Eric whose phone was turned off. Darwin immediately arranged for a helicopter to come over and rushed here in half an hour. Kicking the door open. He saw Eric strangling Fiona. Darwin truly went mad as he pulled Eric away. Fiona was covered in blood, and her neck looked miserable. In that moment, Darwin felt like his world was collapsing. He shouted Fiona's name and immediately performed mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and chest compressions.
Over and over again, amidst the chaotic surroundings, he couldn't hear any other noise.
All of his attention was focused on Fiona.
Fiona was in a bad state. Wandering aimlessly. She was very tired and just wanted to reach her destination quickly so she could rest. Just as she was about to step into her destination.
Suddenly, a voice came from behind.
"Mommy!!"
