Chapter 270How Could I Bear to Hurt You?

The terrifying oppression from Nolan came crashing down on her. Peyton couldn’t help but tremble all over.

Peyton had only one thing on her mind. She was finished!

Kevin was calm. He stood by her side, holding an umbrella to shield her from the wind and rain. His voice was very gentle, “Peyton, it’s cold outside. Let’s go inside and wait.”

Anyway, they had already become caged birds now, and no matter what Peyton did, she couldn’t change the outcome.

Peyton stared blankly as the person at the bow of the ship approached closer and closer. In the moment when the two ships drew near.

The boat had not even come to a stop when Nolan arrived at their small boat.

Peyton stood still in the same spot. She forgot to react and made no

movements.

She could only watch him walk towards her from the pouring rain. The ocean roared behind him.

In such a short distance, Peyton felt as if his soul had been taken away.

She didn’t know how to face Nolan, nor did she know what tricks he had prepared to deal with Kevin and herself.

When Nolan took off his coat and draped it over Peyton’s shoulders, her soul felt like it had returned to her body.

She trembled involuntarily.

“Why did you come out dressed like this?”

Immediately after, she was pulled into a familiar embrace. Peyton dared not struggle, resembling a well–behaved doll.

Nolan tightly embraced her in his arms. He leaned his head and slowly moved closer to Peyton’s car, exhaling warm breath evenly on her ear, “Peytie, you were so hard to find.” Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Nolan’s demonic murmurs made Peyton feel a bit parched in the throat.

Nolan’s voice was very soft, “But you promised me that you would never leave city A in your whole life. How should I punish someone who breaks their promise?”

It seemed that Peyton’s body became even stiffer, as Nolan’s fingertips gently brushed across her face.

He stayed outside for a long time, and his fingertips were icy cold.

Peyton trembled slightly.

Nolan chuckled and said, “Don’t worry, silly. I loved you so much, how could I bear to hurt you?”

Peyton suddenly looked up at him, with a hint of disbelief in his eyes.

Based on her understanding of Nolan, she did not believe that Nolan would give up easily.

Nolan held her pointed chin gently and spoke in a soft voice, “Silly girl, I wouldn’t hurt you. But that doesn’t mean I wouldn’t hurt others.”

Peyton’s pupils dilated. She suddenly reached out and grabbed Nolan’s vest, her voice hoarse as she spoke, “Don’t hurt him, it was me who

”

begged him to take me away. If you want to punish someone, punish me instead.”

After saying these words, Peyton immediately regretted it. The more she spoke positively for others, the more blame Nolan would place on her.

What else could she do if she couldn’t beg for mercy?

Other ships had already started to be cleared, and a continuous stream of vessels orderly departed.

Peyton knew that they were just clearing the field.

Nolan simply watched her silently without speaking, which made Peyton even more uneasy.

Jayson and the others also jumped off the big ship one by one. They cracked their knuckles and approached Kevin.

“It was you who kidnapped Mrs. Dalton, right? You have a lot of nerve!”

Jayson had an attitude like a little rascal, and he walked unsteadily.

“We went to great lengths to find you. Today, you’re finished.”

Peyton instinctively broke free from Nolan’s embrace and extended her arms to block Kevin, saying, “Don’t touch him. Everything was my idea.”
