Begging For A Reconciliation

Chapter 74

Sasha clenched her fists and bit her lip, trying hard not to shout.

Charlie looked at Gordon with eyes filled with hatred. He went behind Gordon in silence and gradually raised his dagger.

Meanwhile, Gordon did not notice anything.

He sighed. “Don’t worry. If you have nothing to do with this, I will…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Gordon’s pupils contracted.

His mouth was muffled, and his eyes bulged. He wanted to shout, but no sound came out of his mouth.

Charlie was choking Gordon and stabbed the dagger into his heart from behind.

Sasha went pale from witnessing everything. Finally, her legs gave out, and she fell to the floor. She could not stop trembling from fear.

Murdered… He’s murdered…

Seeing the man she called “Daddy” who had loved her very much stabbed to death in front of her, Sasha covered her mouth with two hands, trying hard not to let her shout escape.

“Sa…sha… White…” Gordon muttered her name through his gritted teeth, with his eyes bulging.

“No! No! It’s not me!” Sasha covered her ears with her eyes shut, shaking her head nonstop.

Meanwhile, Charlie would not let go of Gordon. He kept stabbing his dagger into Gordon’s body.

Blood was gushing out from Gordon’s mouth. His body twitched while he tried to hold on to the couch behind him.

After a long moment, Gordon’s body stopped twitching.

Sasha had witnessed Gordon’s death with her own eyes.

She covered her mouth, and her eyes swarmed with tears.

Charlie finally let go of Gordon and threw the dagger to the side. He kicked Gordon’s body and spat. “Finally.”

Sasha looked at Charlie in fear.

The man before her was no longer her father but a murderer.

She witnessed her father kill a person.

“What’s with your face? Scared?” Charlie looked at Sasha’s face. Suddenly, he smiled.

The smile made his scary face even more frightening.

“What are you scared of? Gordon White already knew about me, and he’s starting to suspect you. How will you stay in the White family if he is still alive?” said Charlie.

He rubbed his hands together. “Come help me to get rid of the body.”

Sasha shook her head. She refused to move.

Charlie pulled Gordon’s body to the side. Then, suddenly, he remembered something. “Didn’t he have some evidence? Do you know where it is?” he turned and asked Sasha.

Sasha raised her hand and pointed upstairs. “It…is in the library.”

Charlie nodded. Then he went upstairs to Gordon’s library. The investigation report was on his study table.

Sasha’s original DNA report was among the papers.

Charlie smirked. Then, he tore the report into pieces and flushed them away in the toilet.

Looking at Gordon’s lifeless body, Sasha was shivering in fear. Suddenly, she shrieked and ran out of the mansion.

……

Leah washed and got dressed.

When she walked out of the bathroom, she heard some commotion from downstairs.

Then, she heard Sasha’s shriek.

Leah frowned and was confused. So, she opened her door and went downstairs.

However, the living room was in pin-drop silence.

Leah was confused at the silent state of the living room. Wasn’t her father back already?

“Dad?” Leah called, but no one answered.

She walked over to the couch. Suddenly, her eyes widened.

“Aaaaaah!” Leah’s legs went limp, and she crumpled to the floor.

She could not believe what she saw.

Blood was everywhere on the floor.

Gordon was lying still in a pile of blood, with his eyes wide open. His chest was not moving.

It was not the first time Leah saw a corpse. Compared to the last time Ron killed a person in front of her, Leah was much stronger now. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

However, the corpse in front of her was her father.

She stumbled to the side of Gordon’s body and held him. “Dad! Dad! Wake up!” she cried.

However, the man who always looked at her with kind eyes could no longer respond.

Leah placed her trembling hand under Gordon’s nose. There was no breathing.

Gordon White had died.

“Dad! Who killed you?” Leah howled in agony.

Seeing Gordon die tragically, Leah felt her mind go blank, and she was gasping for air.

Charlie heard Leah’s sound from the living room. He frowned, wondering why the White family members came home so early.

Charlie came down once he cleared all evidence of his entrance into the library. He saw Leah was holding on to Gordon’s body mindlessly.

Charlie’s brows knitted. He looked at the dagger he threw aside and picked it up. Then, he walked slowly towards Leah.

Suddenly, Leah turned her head and looked straight into Charlie’s eyes.

Charlie startled and stopped.

“It’s you? Charlie Parridge, you are still alive!” Leah’s eyes turned red, staring at Charlie in a fury.

Charlie smirked. “Yes, I’m still alive. Aren’t you happy seeing your father?”

“You killed my father!” Leah was very sure about it.

Charlie waved the dagger in his hand. “Father? You are forgetful, Leah. I’m the one who raised you!”

“You killed my father!” Leah went into hysteria, “I’ll make you pay for it!”

“Haha! Do you think you would still be alive before that?” Charlie walked towards Leah with the dagger.

Leah did not move. She just looked at Charlie.

Then, Leah lurched forward. “I’m going to kill you!” she yelled as she held onto Charlie’s waist.

Then, two of them were twisting on the floor.

Amid the fight, Charlie pushed Leah. She lost her balance and fell to the floor. Her head knocked on a corner of the coffee table, and she lost consciousness.

Charlie tried to catch his breath. He looked at Leah and kicked her twice to let out his frustration.

Charlie picked up the dagger and moved towards Leah.

When the dagger was about to reach Leah’s body, Charlie stopped.

He suddenly thought of something interesting.

……

Jane had a good time.

She only returned to the mansion when the sun set while singing a song.

However, her smile froze when she pushed open the door.

A strong smell of blood gushed onto her face.

The living room was extremely quiet, and the lights were not turned on.

Jane felt her way to the light switch and turned it on.

Silence.

“Aaahh!”
