Chapter 189
Genevieve screamed when she felt the tearing sensation of pain.
"Let go of me, Abigail! I'm telling you, my father is—"
Before she could finish what she wanted to say, Abigail landed a slap on her face.
"You b*tch! How dare you hit me?!"
Genevieve was so mad that she felt like going insane.
However, Abigail gave her another furious slap.
Right then, Genevieve felt her vision blurring due to the impact, and her face felt like it was burning. Before she
could say anything else, Abigail grabbed the woman by her neck before her fingers slowly tightened around it,
causing Genevieve to feel suffocated.
At that moment, she was starting to feel afraid.
While she stared at Greg, who was standing at the side nonchalantly, her initial thoughts to beg him for help were
stuck in her throat.
All of a sudden, Genevieve realized something that she had neglected to think about.
The red-light district was Greg's territory. Since he was the ruler here, who would dare to threaten his status?
The men who tortured her previously didn't even care when she mentioned Greg's name—it turned out that they
weren't afraid of Greg because they were his subordinates and working under his instructions.
Upon thinking about this, Genevieve finally understood the situation before her eyes turned teary.
"Greg, are you behind this?"
Although it was just a question, she knew the answer to it herself. Why else would Abigail be able to hit her in front
of him if it wasn't the case?
Genevieve's heart hurt.
She knew that she loved Greg, but she could only marry Cody because of her status as the eldest daughter of the
Leynthall Family.
She used to think that Greg loved her as well, so why was this happening?
Why is our relationship of more than ten years so vulnerable? How can Abigail manage to destroy our entire
relationship in such a short time?
Unable to see any signs of sympathy in Greg's eyes, Genevieve's heartache made her feel resentful before she
snapped, "Greg Buckley, how dare you treat me like this? Are you not afraid that I'll get my father to end your
entire career?!"
Still, Greg merely frowned without saying anything.
He had already given Genevieve many chances, so she had no one else to blame for her actions.
Right now, Greg didn't see any point in getting involved with Abigail and Genevieve's conflict.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Abigail noticed how Greg didn't react at all, she chuckled coldly. "Sometimes, I don't understand how you can
go after another man even though you like someone else. As a woman, I feel embarrassed for you."
"Shut up! You have no right to comment on my relationship with Greg. I know that you're afraid to hurt me because
I have the Leynthall Family behind my back, and I can send you to prison anytime I want to. Do you think that you
can do whatever you want by relying on whatever influence Greg has on Grey Territory? You think that highly of
him, huh?"
At this point, Genevieve's pride didn't allow her to hold back any longer. Besides, she had always looked down on
Greg's strength because the Leynthall Family wouldn't have forbidden her to get married to him if he was
prominent enough.
Upon hearing that, Greg's gaze darkened.
Although he was mad that the Leynthall Family had looked down on him throughout these years, he didn't feel any
need to show Genevieve what he was capable of because she wasn't meant to be anyone in his life any longer.
Meanwhile, Abigail laughed coldly. "You don't have to worry about my man, and I'm not here to get back at you for
what you've done since someone else will do that for me. However, I'm here to get back at you for what you did to
Amy. Genevieve, it's alright if you can't stand the sight of me because you think that I snatched your man away
from you, and I can handle you taking jabs at me and your attempt to drive a wedge between my relationship with
Greg. If I lose him to you, I won't be able to blame anyone other than myself, but you shouldn't have involved Amy
in this and harmed her. Do you think that you're the only one who deserves to live while disregarding other people's
lives as if they mean nothing?"
However, Genevieve started laughing.
"Are you seriously making a comparison between Amy and I? Even the hair from my head is way more precious
than her life. She didn't know her place and tried to protect you by going against me. I'm already being kind by
sparing her life."
When Abigail recalled Amy's pale face and the disasters that she had to go through for nothing, she laughed all of a
sudden.
"Is that so? In that case, I'll have to witness how precious Miss Leynthall's life could be for myself."
Then, she let go of Genevieve before getting a man to untie her.
Upon getting her freedom, Genevieve tried to run and make her escape from the room despite knowing that her
chance of succeeding was immensely low, but what if there was a miracle?
Although she was extremely fast due to her activated fight-or-flight response, Abigail was still one step ahead of her
as she brought her leg down on Genevieve's chest.
Immediately, Genevieve flew off like a broken kite before she slammed herself against the ground.
Right then, Abigail's movements were so fast and accurate that even the subordinates who had worked in Grey
Territory for a long time felt afraid of her, and these people had been dealing with all sorts of people while working
under Greg.
When Abigail came in, they all thought that she was just a soft woman whom Greg liked; they had assumed she
wasn't of much use other than doing those things in bed, but all of them were stunned when they saw her kick.
Although a few of them had witnessed Abigail's fighting skills in the past, most of them there didn't know who
Abigail was.
At the same time, Greg noticed that the woman's aura changed.
While she was cold and unapproachable as a doctor, she still had her humanities with her. However, she was filled
with murderous intent right now as if she was a demon.
In fact, Abigail had the aura of an assassin.
On the other hand, tears started falling from Genevieve's face as she cursed in pain, "Kill me if you can, Abigail
Kain. Otherwise, I'll make your life in Harrion a living hell in the future."
Since Abigail knew that Genevieve was backed by the Leynthall Family, she didn't want to say anything else as she
smirked and slowly approached Genevieve.
Even though Genevieve had never been afraid of anyone ever since she was a child, she was extremely terrified of
Abigail. The latter was inching toward her right then, and she felt her heart beating so fast that it might stop
beating anytime soon.
"W-What are you trying to do?"
"I heard that you punished Amy in a way that no one could see that she's been injured physically, didn't you? Well,
it's fine. Since we are both in the same field, why don't we talk about human organs?"
Then, Abigail took a bag of needles for acupuncture purposes out of her pocket.
"Although I'm not extremely good at traditional Chinese medicine studies, I still know all the acupuncture points
well, and I remember that there's a point which will make an individual writhe in extreme pain. Would you like to try
it out, Dr. Leynthall?"
While Abigail chuckled coldly, Genevieve started screaming.
"No! Don't you dare to do it, Abigail Kain! I'll make sure that you die a horrible death if you do that to me!"
However, all she could do was make meaningless threats as Abigail slowly took a needle out as if she was preparing
to treat a patient. Yet, everyone else couldn't help but gulp as they watched what she was doing.
Meanwhile, Genevieve felt like she was about to have a mental breakdown when she saw the long needle.
"Greg, are you going to let this happen to me?"
She gave Greg a pitiful look, hoping that he could be merciful for once.
"Everything's my fault, and I promise that I won't cross Abigail ever again, alright? Make her stop! Make her stop!"
Her pitch became so shrilled that her voice changed toward the end.
Nevertheless, Greg replied coldly, "I've already given you many chances, but you've never appreciated them.
Genevieve, no one is going to spoil you forever, and it's time for you to pay for what you've done now that you're
already an adult."
"Greg, you a*shole! How can you be so merciless? Did you forget that when we were together—ouch!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBefore Genevieve could finish what she wanted to say, Abigail had already jabbed the silver needle into her body.
"You'd better forget about what happened between you and my man in the past. Don't ever mention it in front of
me because I don't like hearing it, you understand?"
Although Abigail's voice was uneasy but somewhat gentle, her hand movements didn't slow down at all.
After inserting more than ten needles onto Genevieve's acupuncture points, the latter was drenched in sweat and in
so much pain that she lost her voice.
She kept opening and closing her mouth, but her voice couldn't be heard at all.
Genevieve started rolling on the ground as if she had gone insane before she kept hitting her head on the wall. Yet,
it was as if everyone was watching a mime as there was no sound other than her head banging against the wall.
During the entire time, Abigail stared at Genevieve coldly without any hints of sympathy before she lowered her
voice and said, "From what I remember, you seem to owe me a live apology. I was planning to let it go for Greg's
sake, but now that you've harmed one of my people, why don't you livestream your apology to me and my
assistant? Perhaps my mood will brighten up once you apologize, and I might even let you go."
Upon hearing Abigail, Genevieve's gaze was filled with rage and hatred. Still, the pain that she was experiencing felt
like she was being skinned alive, and she wanted to die right there and then. However, she couldn't even faint
because the silver needles kept her conscious.
How dare Abigail Kain do this to me?! I must kill that woman!
While Genevieve's gaze was extremely murderous, Abigail remained calm and took a chair before sitting down and
toying with the only silver needle left. Then, she smirked and said, "Are you not going to do it? It's fine by me. If I
insert this needle within your kneecap, you'll have to sit in a wheelchair for the rest of your life. Would you like to try
it?" After saying that, she inched closer toward Genevieve's kneecap.
Immediately, Genevieve's eyes widened before she tried her best to avoid Abigail. However, she ended up crying as
she kneeled in front of Abigail while holding her hands together tightly.
Even though Abigail knew that Genevieve was not going to apologize genuinely, it didn't matter anymore.
"Start the livestream!"
She threw a phone at Genevieve while a pleased look flashed past Genevieve's eyes the moment she got hold of
the phone. The woman contacted the police as fast as she could before she noticed that the call was unable to go
through because there was no signal.
What's happening?
Genevieve continued calling and calling as if she was insane.
Meanwhile, Abigail remarked nonchalantly, "Oh, I forgot to tell you that I've blocked the signal here."
Right then, Genevieve stared at her without blinking; it seemed like she had turned into a statue.
This woman did it on purpose! She did it on purpose!
Another wave of pain hit her again before she started running toward Abigail as if she had been triggered.
I'm going to kill her even if I have to sacrifice myself in the process of doing that!
