A Second Chance at Forever

Chapter 204
After a long while. Bernard’s finger, which had been resting on the trigger, slowly relaxed. The people she cared about most in this world were only Garett and Hailey Vulpe. He couldn’t drag the people she cared about into the hell due to his own revenge. Bernard’s icy cold eyes gradually returned to their usual cold and distant look.
After suppressing his emotions, he slowly put down the gun in his hand.
The woman laughed even more mockingly, as if she had expected him to put down the gun for the sake of the people he cared about, “This is why you can’t beat me, you have weaknesses, while I don’t_”
The man who had just escaped the gun barrel turned a shade paler at her words. Luckily Bernard was the one who backed down first, otherwise his sister would not care about his life and death.
Bernard curled his lips in a cold sneer, seemingly too lazy to engage in further conversation with her.
Seeing him still acting aloof, the woman couldn’t help but touch the belt in her hand, “You hear me clearly, live well and don’t commit suicide again. Otherwise, if you die, I will destroy those who follow you. Of course, they won’t be tortured to death like Nancy, but I can manage to get them in jail. Or…”

The woman lifted her chin, looked at Liana who was lying on the ground unable to move, and curled her lips, “Their fate could be like hers, I can do that
too.
The chill in Bernard’s eyes that had just faded suddenly surged back, filling his entire eyes, “Since you hate me so much, why don’t you let me die?” The woman played with the belt, smiling playfully: “I haven’t had enough fun with you yet, why would I let you die…”
In the past, hearing her say such words would have made Bernard sad. But now he was calm, for after the death of his father and elder brother, she had intensified her torment on him.
The belt in her hand had whipped him countless times, pushing him to the edge with no way out, leaving him with only the option of suicide.
But, whether he attempted to overdose or inject himself with lethal drugs, he never gained any mercy from her.
Back then, he was too young, thinking that in this way, she would treat him a little better
But he forgot that in this world, not all women who give birth were deserved to be called mothers.
What was even more ridiculous was that such a woman who wanted to torture him to death was not his wicked stepmother, but his biological mother. The Laurences’ treated him extremely well, while the Stanleys tortured him to the point of death, so he doubted if he was her biological son.
But the result of his investigation was the exact opposite, he was her son, a son she wanted to kill.
Her way of torturing him was to force him to live and watch her destroy everything he cared about.
Bernard curled his lips in a bitter smile, once thinking that all mothers loved their children. He had dared to hope for maternal love.
