Chapter 194: Chapter 194: Be good, don’t be afraid
Daisy Ginger was stunned for a moment, seeing the blood on Edward Stephens’ hand suddenly drench his entire
wrist. Her eyes were wide with rage, struggling frantically.
Edward Stephens kicked back, the blade stuck in his knuckles, unable to pull it out. The person quickly
abandoned the knife and retreated, letting out a quiet chuckle.
Edward Stephens turned around, shielding Daisy Ginger behind him, and looked up towards lan Linton standing
not far away.
He was as usual in a white shirt and black pants, clean and tidy. His face had a gentle and refined expression, no
different from when they first met, except the back of his fair hand was stained with the blood that had
splattered from his palm. That bit of blood lent a murderous aura to his gentleness.
"Daisy," Edward Stephens looked at lan Linton, but his voice was directed at Daisy Ginger, "I'm fine, calm down."
Daisy Ginger stared fixedly at his palm, tears had already fallen from her eyes; she never wanted to see him get
hurt for her again...
"I'm fine." Edward Stephens tore his shirt, ripping off a piece from the hem, and quickly wrapped it around the
wound, "This small injury will be fine in a few days. | don’t scar easily, don’t worry."
Daisy Ginger’s chest heaved violently as she suppressed her sobs; her struggles gradually quieted down. In the
room, the subtle clinking of chains gradually fell into silence, replaced only by the constant surging sound of
waves rolling in from not far away.
"The police will be here soon." Edward Stephens looked at lan Linton, his gaze concealed a sharp killing intent
like a blade, "You can’t escape."

lan Linton laughed lightly, took a step back, wiping the blood off the back of his hand, seemingly with extreme
disgust. "Young Master Edward, you always csooner than | anticipated."
Edward Stephens ignored his words, looking at lan Linton, he asked, "Why did you hurt her?"
"I hurt her?" lan Linton sounded as if he'd heard a very funny joke, letting out a quiet laugh, "I'm doing what's
best for her, she'll know eventually. The one who hurt her is you, Edward Stephens, see what you've done to her
since you cback?!"
Edward Stephens glanced at Daisy Ginger out of the corner of his eye, his expression calm as he observed lan
Linton’s expression and said, "You're crazy."
Poisoning Ervin Osteen, then causing a car accident to kidnap Daisy Ginger, holding her captive here, causing a
citywide uproar, and yet believes he’s doing her good.
This person is not mentally stable.
"I don’t know if I'm crazy, but | know, you deserve to die the most." lan Linton said the last word, his tone
already tinged with resentment, his refined face showed a slight twist, stressing each word, "If | kill you, she will
be free. Edward Stephens, turning into this, you'd be better off having died eight years ago."
Edward Stephens’ expression remained unchanged, he lifted his chin slightly, "Bring it on."
He wanted to see how this man planned to kill him.
"Young Master Edward, don’t you know what the electrodes stuck on her temple are for?" lan Linton suddenly
laughed lowly, with a somewhat sinister and treacherous tone. He opened his hand, showing the button he held
in his palm, "If | just press it—"
A painful cry suddenly cfrom behind Daisy Ginger!
Edward Stephens’ complexion changed, his whole body’s muscles tensed up.
"——it will continuously emit electric currents, stimulating the brain... it’s very painful, | tried it, couldn't endure
it at all." lan Linton cruelly laughed at him, taking out a trident knife from his pocket, pointing it at Edward
Stephens, "What will you do, Young Master Edward? If you dare turn around, I'll kill you. We are so close, you
can’t dodge my attack."
Edward Stephens glanced at him, without hesitation turned around, pulling the convulsing Daisy Ginger into his
arms, he tore off the electrodes stuck to her temple.
God knows how many times she had endured this torture; when he pulled off the electrodes that were stuck
extremely firmly with his hand, patches of her skin were torn and peeled off, showing a scorched and carbonized
hue.
He completed this action in just one second, during a flash of lightning between heaven and earth, lan Linton
had already lunged towards him. He was about to raise his hand to block his attack, but saw lan make a low
move, dodging his fist, stabbing towards Daisy Ginger's fragile neck in his arms!
He was actually here to kill Daisy Ginger!
Edward Stephens’ pupils contracted violently for a moment, and the fist he swung out was already irretrievable.
With his other hand holding Daisy Ginger, instinctively, he lunged forward, pressing Daisy Ginger down onto the
bed. With a "squeak," the trident knife in lan Linton’s hand stabbed into his back.
The severe pain put a veil of blood mist over his eyes, the blade didn’t stop at all, nearly piercing his back and
chest through. If he hadn't blocked the knife, lan Linton’s move could almost have sliced Daisy Ginger’s entire
neck!
lan Linton slowly pulled out the knife, standing behind him with a quiet laugh. He whispered, "Young Master
Edward, how can you still be as stupid as eight years ago? Making the smistake?"
The trident knife had carved two holes straight in his body. Edward Stephens had seen the bleeding power of this
kind of knife, knowing that even pressing the wound couldn't stop the blood loss, so he simply ignored it. He
slowly sat up from the bed, looked at lan Linton not far away, and asked, "What did Ervin Osteen say to you?"
"Not much." lan Linton’s slender fingers played with the knife blade, calmly saying, "Just sdetails from eight
years ago. | didn’t expect that you would fall for the strick twice."
Edward Stephens squinted his eyes: "You really want to kill her."
lan Linton’s eyes flickered slightly, his gaze fell on Daisy Ginger and then withdrew, he replied lightly and
seriously, "It's better for her to die than to live alone in submission under your shadow."
"She is not your toy," Edward Stephens said, "You have no right to dictate how she falls for someone."
In the air, the sound of helicopter rotors was heard—it was the police helicopter arriving.
lan Linton fell silent, he glanced at the two people opposite, then dropped the knife in his hand, and slowly
walked out of the room.
Edward Stephens turned around, looking at Daisy Ginger shaking uncontrollably on the bed, her face pale.
His gaze softened, lifting his blood-stained hand, gently caressed her face, and then tore off the clear tape on
her mouth, softly saying, "Be good, don’t be afraid."
Sticky blood flowed down from his lips. Daisy Ginger was too scared to utter a sound, her mind was blank, her
hands locked, unable to wipe the blood flowing from the corner of his lips; her eyes were like two glass marbles
frozen solid, not daring to even look at the blood continuously and turbulently flowing from his body...
Until Edward Stephens slowly, collapsed, gradually falling onto her body.
