Veena Morton didn't understand what Bryce O'Connor meant, but seeing him in such pain made her feel distressed as well.
"Veena, are you in pain?"
The man's eyes were red as he caressed Veena Morton's urn, and in the next moment, a few tears fell onto the urn.
Seeing this, Veena Morton was dumbfounded.
Bryce O'Connor cried.
Bryce O'Connor actually cried for her.
Why?
Didn't he... not love her?
Veena Morton's mind was in turmoil, and she felt very uncomfortable.
Bryce O'Connor sat by Veena Morton's grave for a long time. After a while, he carefully hugged Veena Morton's urn and returned to the O'Connor family home. In the O'Connor family shrine, Bryce O'Connor had already set up a memorial tablet for her.
The tablet read:
Bryce O'Connor's wife: Veena Morton.
Veena Morton looked at the tablet, deeply shocked. She and Bryce O'Connor were already divorced, so she wasn't supposed to be in the O'Connor family shrine. But now, she was not only included, but she was also titled as Bryce O'Connor's wife.
"Veena, don't be afraid, I'm here."
Bryce O'Connor wiped the tablet and lovingly kissed Veena Morton's urn, holding it like a treasure in his arms.
This left Veena Morton even more stunned.
She was very surprised by Bryce O'Connor's behavior.
At this moment.
The door of the shrine creaked open, and Veena Morton saw Bryce O'Connor's assistant, Dauf Austin, walk in respectfully, saying, "Sir, those people have all been caught."
Bryce O'Connor didn't respond to Dauf Austin's words. Instead, he tenderly caressed Veena Morton's urn, softly and gently saying, "Veena, I'll take you for revenge."
Veena Morton didn't understand what Bryce O'Connor meant. Her urn was always held by Bryce O'Connor, so her soul had to follow him. But she never expected that when she saw what Bryce O'Connor did, her pupils would shrink in shock.
At this moment.
In an abandoned factory.
A group of people was screaming heart-wrenchingly. The dirty and messy ground was covered with sticky blood. They were begging for mercy in pain, but it only led to more intense punishment. Veena Morton saw that these people were the ones who had bullied her before.
And now, she also saw Sheila Henry and Adam Dalton.
The two of them were in the worst state.
Covered in bloodstains from head to toe, if she weren't so familiar with them, Veena Morton would hardly recognize them.
At this moment, a bucket of saltwater was poured directly onto Sheila Henry. The countless wounds were soaked by the saltwater, and the intense sting made the previously weak and unconscious woman scream and wake up abruptly, reflexively shouting, "Let me go, please let me go, I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong!"
Sheila Henry crawled frantically to the man standing in front of her, clutching his trousers and begging, "Mr. O'Connor, please let me go. Veena Morton's death wasn't my doing, it wasn't me, it was all Adam Dalton, he made me do it, he wanted the Morton family's fortune. This has nothing to do with me!"
However, the man kicked her away in disgust, feeling utterly repulsed by her touch.
Sheila Henry, already covered in wounds, took another heavy blow. The intense pain caused her limbs to convulse, making even breathing difficult. She struggled to open her eyes and see the man's face clearly.
This face, from the moment she first saw him, had haunted her dreams countless times. So she tried everything to make Veena Morton misunderstand him and make them separate.
Everything she did was for him, to make him look at her.
But Bryce O'Connor, his eyes only had Veena Morton.
From childhood to adulthood, it was only Veena Morton!
Sheila Henry was unwilling!
But the instinct to survive made her crawl towards Bryce O'Connor again, hoping for his pity, hoping he would spare her. But before she could get close, her hand was ruthlessly pressed into the dirt, the soil staining her bloodied broken fingers, and the pain made her scream uncontrollably.
Bryce O'Connor looked at the woman crawling on the ground like an ant, his eyes full of undisguised disgust, but even more hatred.
"Spare you?" Bryce O'Connor's lips moved slightly, a bloodthirsty cruelty flashing in his eyes, "Who spared my Veena?"
Sheila Henry's eyes widened at his words.
"When you harmed my Veena, did you ever think about sparing her?"
The man's words made Sheila Henry tremble with fear, "Mr. O'Connor, it wasn't me, Veena Morton was killed by Adam Dalton, he ordered me to do it, he wanted the Morton family's fortune, it has nothing to do with me!"
On the side, Adam Dalton, who couldn't speak anymore, heard Sheila Henry's words, and his eyes were almost bursting with anger. This damn woman, pushing all the blame onto him!
But unfortunately, Adam Dalton was already more dead than alive, unable to refute a single word.
Sheila Henry continued to beg for mercy. She had been tortured to her limit since being brought here today. If it continued, she would only die miserably. But she didn't want to die; she had just gotten the Morton family's wealth and had a good life ahead. She couldn't die!
"Mr. O'Connor, please, I know I was wrong."
"Admitting your mistake will bring my Veena back?"
Thinking of his girl being killed by such a vicious person, thinking of the girl who had occupied his heart for so many years disappearing forever from this world, an endless hatred surrounded him. These two people, even being cut into pieces, wouldn't ease even one-thousandth of his anger.
Sheila Henry was in so much pain that she could barely breathe. Realizing that Bryce O'Connor wouldn't spare her, she was unwilling. The man she had secretly loved for so long never looked at her, and now he was cruelly taking her life.
From the moment she was captured, she had been tortured to the brink of death countless times. No matter how she begged and admitted her mistakes, they didn't even frown.
Sheila Henry knew that Bryce O'Connor wouldn't let her go. She raised her bloodstained face, her expression twisted, "Bryce O'Connor, even if you kill me, so what? Veena Morton is already dead!"
"Hahaha, she's already dead!"
Hearing this, Bryce O'Connor's bloodthirsty eyes turned icy cold. But Sheila Henry knew she wouldn't get out alive, her eyes were blurry and mad, "Bryce O'Connor, do you know why Veena Morton liked you at first but then hated you? Because I deceived her, she was too stupid, hahaha..."
"What did you deceive her about!"
Sheila Henry spat blood, her face twisted, "This is something you'll never know. Bryce O'Connor, you're too heartless. I liked you so much, why wouldn't you look at me? Why..."
Sheila Henry lay on the ground, spitting blood, her pupils dilated.
And Veena Morton, who had been watching them, was momentarily stunned by Sheila Henry's words. Sheila said she had deceived her, but about what?
Before she could think more, she heard Bryce O'Connor say, "Kill them all!"
"Yes, sir!"
Dauf Austin responded, and a group of men in black surged in behind him.
Seeing this, Sheila Henry was scared again.
She just wanted to beg for mercy, but a hail of bullets riddled her body with holes, especially the one in her forehead, her terrified eyes didn't even have time to close.
Next to her, Adam Dalton met the same fate.
They were shot to pieces, their horrified eyes wide open.
Seeing this, Veena Morton was directly frightened. Although her enemies met a terrible end, she had never seen such a bloody scene, nor had she seen such a ruthless side of Bryce O'Connor.
But, with the enemies dead, she felt more satisfaction than anything else.
At this moment, Bryce O'Connor looked down at Veena Morton's urn, a bitter smile on his lips, and softly said, "Veena, I've killed those who harmed you. Can you... come back?"
