She thought she had survived the worst of it, but he still wanted to hurt her!
Martin Weiss’s expression immediately changed. Her accusation stung him.
He put down the teacup in his hand, stood up slowly, and walked to Kyla Corbyn. “Since you say you didn’t commit a crime and what I see is not necessarily true, okay, I’ll believe that what I saw is not necessarily the truth as long as you destroy your eyes today.”
Kyla Corbyn stared at Martin Weiss with her eyes wide open, almost in disbelief. However, her disbelief turned into self-mockery and understanding after a moment.
‘Yeah, why should I be surprised? This is the man who put me in prison with his own hands, so what if he wants my eyes?’
“If… If I destroy my eyes, you’ll believe that I didn’t harm Paisley Daniels, let Nelson stay with me, and not fight me for him?” Kyla Corbyn asked in a murmur.
Martin Weiss only felt the stinging feeling getting stronger. “Yes, I’ll believe you and won’t fight you for Nelson. So? Are you going to destroy your eyes?” he said, full of sarcasm.
The woman was only saying these in front of him for show. In that case, he wanted to see how far she could go!
Kyla Corbyn lowered her head and closed her eyes gently. She remembered how he had said he loved her eyes the most.
He had said that her eyes were bright. When she looked at people with crescent eyes and a smile, they would feel happy.
He added that her eyes were the most alluring ones he had ever seen.
”
His fingers would always caress her eyes when they were being intimate.
She was once proud of her eyes because… he liked them.
Now, he wanted her to destroy them herself. How ironic!
Opening her eyes, Kyla Corbyn looked up at Martin Weiss.
He was standing right in front of her now, and they were close. She looked up, and it was as if they were back to the times when they were being intimate with each other. Only now, he would not put his arms around her waist, and she would not put her arms around his neck and be affectionate to him.
Kyla Corbyn stared quietly at the man she once loved, hated, and where her emotions eventually came to peace. He was good-looking and attractive. Otherwise, how could she have fallen for him so easily?
Perhaps, this would be the last time she saw him!
Suddenly, she felt a little regretful. Maybe she should have seen Nelson a little more before she came out tonight. However, as long as Nelson could stay by her side, it would be better thun anything.
“Yes,” she whispered the word.
Martin Weiss was a little stunned. He saw Kyla Corbyn raising her right hand, stretching out her index finger and ring finger before sticking them toward her eyes…
Instantly, he seemed to realize what she had meant by ‘yes’
earlier!
Almost instinctively, he grabbed her right hand quickly. His heart had almost stopped beating!
Her right hand was firmly in his grasp, and his other hand was afraid that she might use her left, so he held her left hand firmly in his grasp too.
She… still had her eyes! At that moment, he felt fortunate that he had reacted fast and timely enough!
Had it been a second or two later, her fingers would have stabbed into her eyes!
“Are you out of your mind?” He almost growled at her.
In contrast to his fury, her expression seemed calm. “I’m just doing what you told me to, Mr. Weiss. If I destroy my eyes, you’ll let Nelson stay with me, right?”
Martin Weiss stared intently at Kyla Corbyn. This woman had stabbed a broken wine gla** into her abdomen last time just to not bear him a child. She was even more ruthless this time.
She intended to destroy her eyes for Nelson’s custody.
“Let me tell you, I still won’t believe you even if you really destroy your eyes, let alone give you Nelson!” Martin Weiss said fiercely, even sounding a little exasperated.
Kyla Corbyn’s expression was still calm as if she had expected him to say that.
She just wanted to take a gamble to see if Martin Weiss would keep his word after she destroyed her eyes.
However, Martin Weiss now announced that she did not even have the chance to gamble!
“Martin Weiss, must you take Nelson away from me?” Kyla Corbyn looked up and stared intently at him.
He looked somewhat flustered at her gaze!
‘Why am I flustered? It’s only natural for me to take back my son’s custody!’
“Yes, Kyla Corbyn. I won’t let Nelson stay with you. He’ll only suffer if he’s with you. What can you give him? Do you think setting up a food stall and feeding him is enough?” Martin Weiss snapped.
However, Kyla Corbyn nodded unnaturally. “Okay, I see.”
Unusually calm, she took a step back and looked down at her hands that were still in his grip. “Mr. Weiss, can you let go? I’m not going to try and poke myself blind again. After all, it wouldn’t do me any good if I were blind, would it?”
Martin Weiss’s face darkened, and he loosened his grip. Only then did he find that his palms and back were covered with cold sweat.
The woman had forced him into a cold sweal again, just like the time she stabbed herself in the stomach.
Kyla Corbyn retreated one step, two steps… until they were several steps away from each other.
“Well, sorry for hothering you today,” she murmured the words. softly and turned toward the door.
The thin figure looked as if she would fall once the wind blew. Martin Weiss’s eyes could not help darkening. ‘When did she become so thin?’
Even… when he held her wrist earlier, it was evident that she was thinner than when he had last held her hand!
It was almost like holding a bone.
She was so calm as if nothing had happened! It was as if she was running away after messing with his mind!
How could she be so calm when he was so uncomfortable?
There was even a stabbing pain in his chest!
Just as Kyla Corbyn’s hand was about to open the door, there was the sound of footsteps behind her. The next moment, she was grabbed by the wrist again by Martin Weiss.
Before she could react, his lips were pressed hard against hers. He was kissing her on the lips.
He wanted to break her calm expression, freak her out, scare her, and prove that he was not the pa**ive one!
She struggled fiercely to resist him, but he pushed her against the wall, subduing all her struggles. He continued to kiss her dominceringly.
Kissing her seemed to feel the same. The only difference was that she used to accept his kiss sweetly, and now, she was resisting his kiss so strongly.
However… even though she was resisting him strongly, he could not help himself.
When the kiss ended, Martin Weiss felt like he had fallen into a trance. He should hate and disdain this woman, but his body seemed to long for her!
“Don’t go…” The words escaped his mouth almost involuntarily, and he regretted it as soon as he said them! ‘What am I talking about? Am I trying to make this woman stay?’
Kyla Corbyn shivered and looked at Martin Weiss. Suddenly, she said, “If I don’t leave tonight, can you give up Nelson’s custody?”
Her words pierced his heart like a sharp sword.
‘Is the woman telling me she’s giving me her body in exchange. for Nelson’s custody? Since when was she able to trade with such things?”
Martin Weiss laughed angrily. “Okay. I’ll think about it if you take off your clothes now and please me in bed.”
He said it only to humiliate her.
However, she became as calm as before and whispered,
“Okay.” Then, she raised her hand to undress.
Martin Weiss looked at Kyla Corbyn in disbelief and snapped.
