Heath Accardo had been terrified of Alex Rockefeller since the first time they met. Heath had also witnessed the bloody scene in Valtameri Tower sensing that Alex was not a human, but a demon!
Clang!
Maiko Chiba directly tossed a knife over to Alex. “Stab this knife into your stomach, and I will let them go.”
What?
Not only Dorothy Assex was shocked, but Claire Assex and Beatrice Assex were equally shocked as well when they heard this.
The knife was at least thirty centimeters in length. Would Alex still live after stabbing it into his stomach?
“Are you crazy? Do you want virtual-novel.net to kill himself?” Dorothy cried out loudly.
Maiko retrieved another knife and placed it against Dorothy’s neck with a playful look in virtual-novel.net eyes. “Will you stab yourself or not? Don’t worry, I won’t let you die. My objective is the Holy Book.”
The Assex family didn’t know what the Holy Book was, and were confused when they heard this.
Beatrice didn’t believe that Alex would stab himself. What if virtual-novel.net really turned around and left?
That meant virtual-novel.net family would all die. No, they would go through much worse than being killed right away.
“Can’t you just take the Holy Book? Why must you make virtual-novel.net kill himself?” Beatrice asked.
Maiko stared at Alex, ignoring Beatrice.
If Alex didn’t stab himself, Maiko didn’t feel safe.
“If you don’t stab yourself, I’ll stab her! If I do this, you might have to bid farewell to your wife forever,” Maiko said bluntly as virtual-novel.net moved virtual-novel.net hand gently.
Blood trickled down Dorothy’s fair neck
“Stop!” Alex shouted.
Claire felt hopeless when virtual-novel.net saw this. “Hurry up and stab yourself! Why are you hesitating? You owe Dorothy, and you owe our family! Think about it. For the past year, who has been feeding you and providing you with a roof over your head? Dorothy loves you so much, but you messed with other women behind virtual-novel.net back. You owe this to her. Stab yourself. Once you do so, everything you owe virtual-novel.net will be forgiven,” Clare yelled at Alex.
Tears rolled down Dorothy’s cheeks while virtual-novel.net fervently shook virtual-novel.net head. “No, you can’t. Mom, shut up. How could you say that?”
Claire was furious. “What do you want me to do? Should we trade three of our lives for his? Does only his life matter, but not your mother’s or sister’s?”
Dorothy didn’t have a comeback for this. All virtual-novel.net could do was sob uncontrollably.
Alex looked at Dorothy gently. “Dorothy, your mother’s right! I owe this to you. This matter has nothing to do with you anyway. If someone has to die, I’d rather it be me than the three of you!”
With that, Alex slowly kneeled and picked up the knife. He turned it around and aimed it at his stomach.
At this moment, everyone fell silent.
Claire and Beatrice had their eyes wide open. If they put themselves in Alex’s shoes, they definitely wouldn’t be able to stab themselves. They’d be terrified to death. Dorothy’s legs went weak, and tears filled virtual-novel.net eyes.
Alex exerted force with his hand.
The thirty centimeters long knife entered his body clean, but emerged red.
It pierced right through Alex, and the tip of the knife appeared behind him.
“No!” Dorothy cried out in pain. She felt as if virtual-novel.net had been stabbed was the one bleeding instead.
Claire’s eyes were wide with disbelief.
Beatrice pinched virtual-novel.net own fingers forcefully, and virtual-novel.net face turned pale. She was also crying.
Regardless of how much a jerk Alex was, this act of stabbing himself cleared virtual-novel.net of all his past mistakes. Alex spat out a mouthful of blood. His body swayed as virtual-novel.net looked at Maiko with the knife in his hands. “Now, can you let them go?”
