Chapter 1211
"I know you too well. After you chop off his leg, you're going to do something else. You never wanted to
give us freedom or let me go. I don’t want to leave then. Just kill me!" Hannah looked like she was
ready to sacrifice herself.
Heather stared at Ralph quietly, but he simply looked down without a word and had no intention of
saying anything.
"Aren't you two in love? Won't you give up anything for each other? I've given you a chance, and you
can't bear to
sacrifice a leg?” Heather mocked and directed her words to Ralph.
"Uncle Ralph,” Lily said, "Hannah is willing to sacrifice so much for you. Aren't you going to say
something?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"What do you want me to say?" Ralph looked up at Lily and emphasized his every word, almost angry.
"What should I say?! That I’m okay to have my leg chopped off? Sorry, I’m not!"
"As winners, you guys act all high and mighty and treat people like dirt. Now I have nothing, yet you still
want to chop off my leg. How will I make a living without my leg? Will the Russell family support me for
the rest of my life? Hannah too?"
Ralph pointed at Hannah without looking at her. "You guys won’t! You’re just enjoying seeing us suffer!"
"All I want is to stay alive," he stressed.
"I promise...” Heather suddenly said, "This will be my last demand. All I want is your pair of arms and
one of his legs, and then both of you can leave. I'll never go after you guys ever again. I can even give
you money so you can leave here and wherever you go or whatever you do would not concern me
anymore. How’s that?"
What she said was so tempting to Hannah that even her eyes lit up. She stared at Heather for a
moment and glanced at Ralph, expecting his reply.
However, Ralph only held onto his folded legs and did not look up at her.
Heather laughed. "You see that? That’s the man you love? Do you think he truly likes you? Can’t you
see he cares about himself most? You're willing to give up your family and arms for him, but he can't
bear losing even one of his legs. Do you think he’d do anything for you? Do you think it’s worth it?”
Hannah did not even blink when Heather told her she wanted to chop off her arms and kick her out of
the family. However, her expression grew deathly pale, and her eyes lost their glow. Hannah looked like
something had sucked her soul out, and she lost all hope.
She moved near Ralph and said in a shaky voice, “Ralphy..."
Ralph lifted his gaze to her and shook his head. "As I said, I just want to stay alive. There's nothing
more important than that."
"Not even me..." Hannah’s lips trembled, but she did not finish her sentence.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLike a lost soul, she turned to look at Heather with a half smile. "You've achieved your goal."
Heather was puzzled.
"That’s what you're after, aren't you? You want to see my last hope destroyed and laugh at my stupidity
and failure. Now you must be happy witnessing it, huh? Yes, I'm stupid! I gambled everything I had to
love this man even though he's a good-for-nothing, but let me tell you something-1 don’t regret it.
"Not even now! Because I learned about joy and pain through him, and I started to have hope for the
future owing to him. Ralphy made me realize that I'm a living person, not just your shadow!"
Hannah screamed as she clutched her chest. Her voice echoed in the house deafeningly, "Don't worry.
From now on, there won't be two children in the Riggs family anymore! You, Mom, and Dad won't need
to worry about the curse again!"
She suddenly and swiftly picked up the knife and plunged it into her stomach.
