Chapter 186: He touched his woman
“ Stop!” Laera screamed. “ Please, I'm begging you, Jeremy, with everything you believe in, please don't do it. I swear I'd love you, no, I love you, you're the only one for me please don't hurt her.”

She cried desperately.

Eloise trembled as she felt the sharp knife cut her flesh a little. Her body shook with fear, and tears gathered in her eyes.

‘ Antonio. Antonio where are you?’ she cried in her mind.

“ Why do I feel like you love her more than you love me?” Jeremy muttered sadly. “ Look at you crying out your eyes for your friend and saying things you don't mean. It really makes me want to kill her.”

He grabbed Eloise's hair tighter.

“ No, no, no, that's not the reason. I swear.”

“ Then what's the reason?”

“ Because I'm worried about you,” Laera said.

He chuckled. “ Worried about me?”

She nodded. “ Yes, because her husband is a crazy man. There's nothing he's not capable of, he's insane.”

“ I'm also capable of anything.”

“ Not like Antonio, he'd kill you, Jeremy. I don't want you to die. Remember what happened to Luther, he only attempted to rape her, and he had his hands and dick chopped off.”

“ What?!”

“ Yes, yes, he's the one, he's the reason Luther committed suicide. That man is her husband.”

Jeremy looked at Eloise in disbelief. “ You crazy bitch, so your type is a psychopath?”

“ A real psychopath,” Laera emphasized. “ He's insane about her. If you kill her, he'd come after you.”

They watched him curl a little, biting his lower lip.

He let go of her hair, ran his fingers through his hair with his heart racing.

Eloise breathed in relief, looking towards the door and hoping Antonio would burst in.

“ But I beat her up.” He said, looking at Eloise’s face full of bruises, cuts, and blood. Her face was all swollen. “ He would still do something to me because of this, right?"

Laera looked from Jeremy to Eloise in fear.

“ So let me just kill you, then run away with my girlfriend. He wouldn't know it was me. Yes, that's what I'll do.” He breathed in relief as he came up with a solution.

The ladies's hearts started pounding again.

Laera hurriedly searched through her head for what to say, but nothing came up.

She started begging, screaming, kicking, and crying for Jeremy not to do it.

Tears streamed down Eloise's cheeks as he grabbed her hair again.

This time, there doesn't seem to be a way out.

The knife slowly went to her throat.

“ Tell Antonio,” Eloise said for Laera to hear. “ That I really love him. That I love him so much, more than I thought I'd ever again. Tell him I don't believe he's with me to use me to rank higher, tell him I always believe everything he says to me. I wanted him to explain to me, I wanted him to touch me like he always does, and tease me.”

She closed her eyes. Her throat tightened, but the suffocation in her chest was overwhelming.

“ Please, make sure you tell him that my last thought before my death...was having kids with him.”

Jeremy moved his hand to slice her throat.

Laera's eyes widened as hot tears fell.

Her body stiffened like the world had just crumbled.

Bang!

Every moment shattered.

Jeremy and Laera's head snapped towards the door.

There he was.

Looking at Jeremy with his eyes widely open.

His jaw dropped in disbelief.

Then his eyes blazed with rage.

So deadly. Like death was staring at Jeremy in the eyes.

He had kicked the door open to see a man with a knife at his wife's throat.

“ How dare you!” His voice thundered through the room and a heavy punch sent Jeremy flying away from her.

“ Antonio.” Laera cried out in relief. Then her eyes fell on Oliver standing beside him with his eyes bloodshot. “ Olly.”

He ran to her side and wrapped his arms around her. His heart racing. His body trembling with relief.

Eloise opened her red eyes to see Antonio.

Her lips trembled and tears rushed out of her eyes.

“ Why were you so late?” She cried out loud.

Antonio fell on his knees, trembling as he moved closer to her. His hands were shaking, moving to her face that was full of bruises and cuts.

The sight of it stabbed through his soul brutally. His heart thrashed against his rib before pulling her into his arms, against his chest.

“ I'm sorry, I'm so sorry,” he muttered, his voice cracking, his hands clenching so hard his knuckles turned white.

“ I was so scared, I thought I was going to die.” She wept.

“ I'm here, I'm sorry I was late. I'm here now, baby.” He kissed her hair, holding her tighter.

Then they heard the punching sound and turned to see Oliver raining punches on Jeremy like he intended to kill him.

Antonio gritted his teeth before his rage vibrated through the room. “ Is that all you can do?”

Oliver paused, breathing heavily with anger. “ What do you suggest?”

Antonio fought to keep his breath steady before turning to Eloise, untying her. “ Which hand did he use on you?”

He asked.

Eloise blinked her eyes. His aura had changed. It's now dark and terrifying. The way he breathes was like a lion fighting to steady his rage.

“ His right hand.” She answered.

He untied her, tucked her hair away from her face.

The more he looks at her, the more his blood boils.

He stood up and walked towards Oliver.

The way he walks, Jeremy could feel his heart pounding so hard that they might hear.

“ He raised his hand at my woman.” Antonio said to Oliver, “ That hand, should be the first thing you deal with.”

He marched his ankle so hard the bone cracked.

" Haaaa." Jeremy's scream echoed through the room. Before he knew it, Antonio had grabbed his hand and snapped his finger.

He trembled in pain as he let out a deafening scream.

But it wasn't enough. His scream. His cries. His trembles.

There weren't enough.

He was still breathing. The man who attempted to kill his wife was still breathing.

After he'd called Ghost about Eloise missing, Ghost had hacked through every CCTV in the area and located Jeremy's van. He'd tracked him to the house while informing Antonio about every detail.

If he were a minute late. Eloise would have died. His Eloise would have died.

Everything was blur, and he began to rain punches on his face. Even when Jeremy became too weak to cry with his blood all over his face, Antonio didn't stop.

He couldn't.

“ Antonio,” Eloise called softly.

That's when he stopped, his chest rising and falling with anger.

“ Ghost.” He called, standing up, and placed his palm out.

Without being told, Ghost placed the gun in his palm.

“Take the ladies out.” He ordered and Oliver and Ghost immediately took Eloise and Laera out.

Eloise was outside when she heard the sound of gunshots repeatedly.

Antonio fired all the bullets into Jeremy's skull.

Walked out and threw the gun at Ghost. “ Don't bury him, leave him for the dogs.”

Ghost bowed once.

He moved in a quick motion and grabbed Eloise, carrying her in a bridal style.

She placed her head against his chest, feeling relieved and safe. “ You killed him.”

“ He touched my woman.” He replied.
