Chapter 491 Antonio, Are You Threatening Me?

Sarah struggled, attempting to break free from Antonio's vice-like grip, but it only tightened, as if driven by his sheer contempt.
"Antonio... it hurts! Let go of me!" She insisted, pain staining her voice.
But Antonio might as well have been deaf to her pleas. With a violent jerk, he pulled her into his embrace.
"Answer me—where are you going?!" He demanded.
Her wrist was swollen, and her fingertips were going numb from the pressure. Anger burned in Sarah's eyes as she stared back at Antonio. "Where I go is none of your business, and you have no right to be violent with me in public!"
Caught between laughter and fury, Antonio mocked her. "No right? Have you forgotten, Sarah? I'm still your husband. You're my wife!"
Pushed to her limit, Sarah swung her free hand, landing a fierce slap across Antonio's face. "You think you're worthy?"
Antonio gingerly prodded his cheek with his tongue, the one Sarah had slapped so hard it throbbed. The cut at the corner of his mouth had split open with the slap, and now blood was slowly trickling down.
Just yesterday, Sarah had been tending to his wounds with care, offering him medicine. But today, her demeanor was ice-cold, her eyes gleaming with a fury that seemed to wish death upon him.
A shiver ran down Antonio's spine, even as the rage within him flared like a blazing fire.
His voice came out hoarse, "So, you're set on leaving me, aren't you?"
"Yes!"
Tears brimmed in Sarah's eyes, revealing not just shock but a deep humiliation that words couldn't express.
Was she nothing more than his property? Was she not allowed to make any decisions without him?
She knew Antonio would react unreasonably, which was why she had decided to keep her plans from him.
Why was it that Antonio could do as he pleased without her consent, yet the reverse was not allowed?
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Sarah retorted fiercely, "Antonio, since you've found out, then let me make it clear to you: from now on, what I do is none of your business! You can't control me! Let go, or I'm calling the cops!"
Antonio's stare hardened, his eyes radiating hostility.
"Fine, just fine," he said through clenched teeth, his eyes tinged with a bloodshot fury. "You've got guts, Sarah."
Without another word, Antonio scooped Sarah up and slung her over his shoulder!
This abrupt action took Sarah by surprise, and Antonio's shoulder dug into her abdomen, causing her pain. Infuriated, she pounded on his back, "Antonio, you bastard; let me go this instant!"
The commotion drew the attention of almost everyone in the airport, the onlookers wondering if this handsome pair was filming a TV drama.
But Sarah's resistance was futile against Antonio's domineering force; she was helplessly carried away as he strode out of the airport.
Panicked, Sarah craned her neck to look toward the tarmac where Brian's private jet was parked.
"Antonio, where do you think you're taking me? I won't go! My brother's on that plane; I need to take him abroad for treatment!" She pleaded.
Antonio remained deaf to her cries.
Suddenly, James came running toward them, with a look of terror on his face.
Seeing the boss and his wife in what seemed like a prelude to a fight, James was trembling with fear, but he was powerless against Antonio's anger.
"Mr. Valencia," James tried to intervene, "you..."
"James, instruct the pilot to take off as scheduled," Antonio ordered.
James dared not delay, casting a deep look at Sarah before hurrying off to relay the instructions.
"James, you wouldn't dare! My brother is on that plane! What right do you have to do this?" Sarah screamed.
With that, she began to thrash her legs furiously, intending to kick at Antonio, but he pinned her down forcefully. Her anger boiling over, she exclaimed, "Antonio, have you lost your mind?! My brother is sick! How can you let him fly abroad alone? Are you crazy?!"
"Yes!! I've gone crazy, absolutely crazy since I found out that you'd already decided to leave me!!" Antonio panted heavily, his voice laced with a raw edge, as if he could taste the bitterness of blood, "Since you say your affairs have nothing to do with me, I'll make it clear to you - from now on, you're not leaving my sight for a second!"
In the midst of this heated exchange, he stormed out of the airport terminal, and Sarah found herself roughly shoved into the passenger seat. His whole presence blocked any escape.
"But rest assured, I'll arrange for the best doctors and nurses abroad to take care of Brady. I’ll keep you updated on any progress on his condition—if he ever wakes up, I’ll be right there beside you."
Sarah's spine stiffened with disbelief. "Antonio, are you threatening me?"
