Chapter 9 The island's final deed was in my name. I was stunned too. I watched in disbelief as Caspian approached Rosalind step by step and slapped her: "What are you? How dare you compare yourself to Ophelia?" "The island I bought was for Ophelia." "The properties weren't for you either-1 bought them because I knew they were what Ophelia had sold." "I bought out that luxury brand because it was her favorite." 'Guess why I suddenly agreed to give you a wedding?" 'Because I wanted to use you to make little wish regret it, to make her give in." What do you think you are? These seven years, if Ophelia hadn't found a man too, would I have kept you around?" From beginning to end, I've only ever loved Ophelia." You were just a tool, a pawn. Understand?" But you couldn't recognize your place and dared to intercept Ophelia's messages." It's you-you killed her! YOU!" aspian completely tore off his mask of feigned composure, wrapping both hands around Rosalind's throat. [is eyes were bloodshot, like a crazed beast. osalind struggled with all her limbs, but being tightly bound made it useless. it the critical moment, Orion burst in with police, directly restraining Caspian. osalind had completely passed out. fter the police loaded Rosalind into an ambulance, they were about to take Caspian away when Orion stopped them: I'll personally escort him to the station afterward." ortunately, Orion had family connections with the police chief, so they left Caspian with him. he two men stared at each other for a long time in silence.

"So I originally planned to strangle Rosalind, then kill myself to find Ophelia and give her an explanation." "No need." Orion remained calm, his voice resolute: "Ophelia doesn't need your apology, and she doesn't need your self righteous guilt." "Her only wish before dying was that you wouldn't follow her in death. She didn't want to see you." "What gives you the right to say that? You're just a kept man, you-" Caspian flew into a rage, but Orion slapped him: SLAP! Orion stood up, looking down at him with a sneer: You still think Ophelia betrayed you. How could you be worthy of seeing her?" he slap knocked Caspian's head to the side. At these words, his whole body stiffened as he looked up sharply: What did you say?" Wait... what do you mean?" You and Ophelia-you're not that kind of relationship?" How is that possible, how could it be-" (0) (0)
