Chapter 840 Elysia was pacing the room, her nerves frayed to breaking point.
"Reincarnation? That's just self-deception, Keith! You shouldn't have gone after Tarquin. You knew he was innocent, knew how much Elizabeth adored him. Hurting him won't bring you joy, only more misery." "Why would I feel miserable? Sure, Tarquin didn't partake in the Bradford family's misdeeds, but I've sworn to bring down the entire Bradford clan. I can't just let him off the hook! And he's Kendrick's only blood. If I spare him, who will spare me? Only with his death can I find release!" Keith's expression turned dark and menacing, "Do you have any idea how terrified and hopeless I felt when Kendrick draggedinto those woods? It's a nightmare I can't escape from! The Bradford family destroyed me, but Kendrick's betrayal hurt no less! If, and I say if, after hurting me, he could've given her a bright future, I might have accepted it. But she was anything but happy, dying tragically young! Because of him! All his fault! He forced her to flee her homeland, to settle in a foreign land! He let her die at her most beautiful age! He couldn't protect her, couldn't give her the future she deserved, so why did he snatch her from me?! Without him, she could've had a happy, beautiful life! I despise the Bradford family, Kendrick most of all. But with him gone, I'll settle the score with his son. I want Tarquin to taste every misery, endure every torment before I'm satisfied!" Elysia held her breath, staring at him in horror. This was the first tshe'd seen Keith lose his temper.

A stark contrast to the sunny, handsome, and refined man she knew on any other day.
Keith, realizing he'd lost control, took a moment to compose himself before speaking again, "Sorry for scaring you. You don't need to worry about my vendetta against the Bradford family. Stop trying to convince me. Just look forward to reuniting with our baby. As for Tarquin, forget him. He'll be dead soon." Elysia panicked, "What are you planning to do?" "It's none of your business." "How can it not be? He's my husband!" "Not anymore. From now on, you only have two roles: the mother of my child and my wife, Keith." With those words, Keith stood up and walked out of the cabin.
Elysia, emotional, called out, "Keith!" Keith didn't look back, "Even if I don't lay a hand on him, someone else will. He can't escape his fate! And I won't spare him either. Sthings you can't stop, better not to think about them. Better think about our baby." Elysia, gasping for air, wanted to threaten him but had no leverage. She tried to calm herself, "Why not seek justice through the law?" "The law? That'd be letting them off too easy." Keith left her with those words and stepped out of the cabin.
Silence engulfed the small space once more.

Elysia felt a whirlwind of panic. Keith was beyond reason, hell-bent om revenge against Tarquin, and she couldn't sway him. What to do?
Did Tarquin know about Keith's plot? Was he aware of the logmingo m danger? Could he cout of this unscathed? Was he alright now? Her mind was a tumult of questions and dreadful scenarios. She was terrified, utterly terrified.
Unbeknownst to her, night had fallen.
The sea waves crashed against the small boat, churning in the darkness, as if signaling the myriad dangers lurking beneath.
Keith, having asked the sailor for a cigarette, now stood at the bow, smoking.
Elysia couldn't see his face. There, shrouded in the night, he seemed as mysterious and eerie as the sea andedrie itself, radiating danger from every angle. mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
