Chapter 162 He didn't Dare to Hope for the Children's Forgiveness
Why did the evil woman bring us here? What is she planning to do?
Ethan suddenly had a bad feeling. He then saw Lisa shake her head and continue, "No. I'll let Sarah witness the deaths of her children. That will be the most fun."
A cruel gleam appeared in Lisa's eyes, and she couldn't help but imagine how Sarah would react. She burst into laughter.
To witness the death of both children with her own eyes, Sarah would surely collapse on the spot.
If Sarah followed them in death, that would be even better.
No one would stand in Lisa's way in the future, and she would finally get what she desired!
In fact, at that moment, Lisa really had the intention to strangle Harper but had to endure a little longer for the sake of tomorrow's spectacle.
As such, Lisa let go of Harper, stumbled to her feet, and smirked. "I'll spare you for today, but don't worry. I'll let you two little brats die in agony tomorrow. But before that...
"Enjoy the last night in this world!" Lisa laughed wildly and limped away. Her words were clear just now—she was planning to kill them.
Sarah was in her way, and the children naturally understood as well.
Upon hearing the sound of the door locking, Harper's face turned pale, and she asked with a crying voice, "Ethan, what should we do now? Are we really going to let Mommy see us in danger?"
Harper didn't want to die, nor did she want to make Sarah sad. But they had been kidnapped and tied up. This time, she really didn't know what to do...
Ethan hurriedly ran to his sister's side, feeling heartbroken at the tears in her eyes, and reassured her, "Don't cry. We still have time to figure something out. Remember what Mommy said, 'Evil will be met with retribution'? Evil women will never succeed!"
Harper's face and neck throbbed with pain, yet she remained silent. She knew that the most important thing right now was to escape. Sentimentality had no place in this crisis.
She nodded obediently and leaned her head against Ethan's shoulder.
"Mmm, evil will be met with retribution. We'll be okay," she murmured.
As the night deepened, the children didn't feel tired as they worked together to come up with a plan.
…
Meanwhile, Antonio had no intention of sleeping in the hotel room. He still sat in the same place, without moving for several hours, not even taking a sip of water, as if he had truly turned into a sculpture.
The desolation and despair that surrounded him were even more intense than before, his gaze vacantly fixed, filled with self-blame and regret, flooding his dark eyes.
Why didn't I save Ethan and Harper? Why did I make such an easy decision?
At the thought of this, Antonio's already bleeding heart stabbed painfully again, as if he had been viciously stabbed.
Ethan and Harper were his only connection to Sarah. She would hate him to the core if something really happened to them.
Upon thinking of how broken Sarah looked today, Antonio's face showed a pained expression. He really wanted to see how she was doing right now. But he knew that if he knocked on the door, Sarah would never see him, and it might even provoke her further.
Antonio rose from his seat and made his way to the balcony. He glimpsed the light spilling from the adjacent room, revealing Sarah seated on the sofa in a state of disorientation, with Alex by her side.
Antonio couldn't hear what Alex was saying to her, but he knew... Alex must be comforting her.
Sarah suddenly leaned to the side, and Alex reached out and hugged her shoulder, letting her lean on him.
Antonio saw this scene, and the light in his eyes was completely extinguished. He stared at them...
The place next to her should have been his. Everything would have been different if he had saved Ethan and Harper today.
It seemed that the sight of Sarah and Alex leaning against each other pained his eyes. He turned away, his eyes filled with deep understanding.
A self-deprecating smile appeared on his lips. What qualifications did he have to stay by her side? He had caused the death of his own flesh and blood. He didn't deserve her forgiveness, nor the forgiveness of the children...
