“Go to ****!” Alice stood up with all her strength and lunged at Rachel, with the knife pointing at Rachel’s chest.
Seeing that Rachel was about to be stabbed, a vicious light flashed through Alice’s eyes and there was a smile on her face. But the next second, Rachel, who was standing in front of her just now, suddenly dodged and grabbed her wrist. Her fingertips pressed on Alice’s wrist. The pain made Alice’s face twist. “Let, let me go…” Rachel loosened her grip. Alice lost her balance and fell heavily to the ground. She had no strength now. Rachel picked up the knife on the ground and squatted down in front of her. In the dim light, the blade emitted a cold light, mixed with the blood, as if it was the sickle of death. Looking at the reddened tip of the knife, there was unwillingness and fear in Alice’s heart and her eyes were red. “Why! Rachel, why? I hate you! Why do you have everything? Why can’t I! I have lost so much. But why! Why is it so unfair?” “Why?” With cold eyes, Rachel smiled and said, “Because I’m the daughter of the Bennet family, and you, Alice, are nothing.” “Rachel!” The anger made Alice spit out a mouthful of blood. Rachel’s words hurt her. She said what Alice had been troubled by the most. When she was a child, every time someone came to visit, they would only look at Rachel, because she was the rightful heir of the Bennet family. While Alice… Her father was Jack and her mother was Caroline. She had nothing to do with Bennet family by blood. As a result, she started to compete with Rachel for father’s love and attention. Later, she began to learn to steal Rachel’s grades and limelight by playing the victim. She wanted to grab whatever she could from Rachel. Finally, everyone started to notice her.
But…
Rachel was chosen by Victor’s grandma and married to him. Her efforts for so many years were once again turned into nothing. She became more and more jealous. Since she was a child, she had been trying to get rid of the label of an illegitimate daughter at all costs. But it turned out that no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t.
No matter how notorious Rachel was, she was the daughter of the Bennet family and was respected.
However, no matter how outstanding Alice was, she was still just an illegitimate daughter in others’ eyes.
Alice didn’t want to face it.
But she knew that Rachel wouldn’t let her go. She burst into laughter, shrill and resentful. She grabbed Rachel’s wrist and let the knife point at her neck. “Rachel, kill me! Kill me! Kill me now so that I can become a ghost and haunt you forever! I will curse you and you will have a horrible end.” After saying that, Alice closed her eyes, gritted her teeth, grabbed Rachel’s hand and scratched it towards her neck. But the expected pain did not come. Alice opened her eyes and saw that Rachel flipped her hand and the blade changed its direction. The blade fell into her palm with the tip of the knife facing herself. “You…” “Alice, I won’t kill you.” She said. Hearing what Rachel said, Alice didn’t feel relieved at all. Instead, she felt even more scared. The coldness rose from her feet and spread all over her body. “Aren’t you going to avenge Abby?” Rachel looked down at the knife. Her beautiful eyes were reflected on the blood-stained knife, and the coldness and fierceness in her eyes could be seen clearly.
“I don’t want my hands to get dirty. But you can rest assured that you will pay back with your life sooner or later.” She said slowly, pulled down the cloth on her dress and wiped the blood from the knife. “You think you can pay it back simply with your life?” “…… What… What do you mean?”. “Death is so easy.” With a smile, Rachel looked at the edge of the knife that she had wiped off the blood and listened to the warning of Quintin from the earphone. The person she had been waiting for was about to arrive. “Alice, I want you…” she paused, “To live a life that’s even more horrible than death.” As soon as she finished her words, she held Alice’s hand and cut her arm hard without blinking. Blood instantly oozed out. Alice widened her eyes in shock. “Rachel, what… What are you doing?” Before she finished her words, Rachel suddenly stood up and took a few steps back, with her back against the railing. The sea breeze blew her long hair and the end of her dress. The wound on her arm was still bleeding, and the scarlet blood flowed down her fair arm and finally dropped on her skirt. It was extremely dazzling, like a wild rose that was about to fall in the wind.
Alice didn’t know what Rachel wanted to do, but she was in unprecedented panic.
“Rachel…”
“If I jump from here, will others think that I jumped by myself or you pushed me?” Alice heard her words clearly. “You want to frame me!” Alice reacted at once and struggled to get up, but the pain on her ankle and the drug made her unable to move at all. She could only shout at Rachel in a hoarse voice.
“No way! Rachel! Don’t try to frame me! They wouldn’t believe it! They won’t! You are insane!”
“How about we make a bet?”
“No…” Before Alice finished her words, Rachel leaned back against the railing and pressed down. Plop! She turned over and fell straight into the sea, splashing water. When Victor arrived, he heard the sound of something falling into the water before he could see clearly where Rachel was. His pupils spread quickly, and his heart seemed to stop beating He rushed madly to catch Rachel, but it was too late. “No, it’s not me! I didn’t push her!” Alice didn’t expect that Rachel would jump off the ship without hesitation. Seeing others rushing in, she shook her head in a hurry, and the knife in her hand fell to the ground again, making a crisp sound. When Victor saw the blood stained knife, his mind went blank. Rachel was injured! He felt his heart stopped beating. “Mr. Sullivan!” Before Ivan could make a sound to stop him, he saw that Victor had jumped into the sea. “Call the guards!” Seeing this, Ivan turned his head quickly and ordered in a low voice. All of a sudden, the deck was in chaos. Alice kept shaking her head with tears, “It’s not me. I didn’t do it! It has nothing to do with me!”
Ivan looked down at Alice coldly and saw the blood on the blade. He said in a low voice, “Guards! Take Alice away!” Someone immediately stepped forward and pressed Alice’s shoulder. Alice struggled and fell to the ground, grabbing Ivan’s trousers. “Ivan, I didn’t. It’s not me! I didn’t push her. She jumped down herself. It has nothing to do with me. Trust me!” “Trust you? Alice, you’d better pray that Mr. Sullivan and Miss Bennet are safe, otherwise….” Ivan paused.
Because no matter which one of them died here, he could not imagine the consequences.
