Ch. 359: Mr. Edwards’ Unraveled Life Chapter 359

Chapter 359

Norah turned to look at Bianca again.

Bianca’s eyes gleamed with twisted pride, her lips curling into a cruel smile. Her words dripped with venom as she sneered, “You can’t survive this. No one can save you. This is your fate. I’m the winner—I’ll shine, and you’ll rot into nothing but dirt. Hahaha...”

Her laughter grew louder, echoing with madness.

It was the first time Norah had seen Bianca laugh like this—so wild, so unhinged.

Bianca’s words hit her like a curse. Norah’s expression shifted, her confidence faltering as unease crept into her heart.

Just then, Kevin approached, his face grim.

“Kevin.” Bianca’s laughter stopped abruptly. Tears welled in her eyes as she transformed into the image of a fragile, innocent woman. Her voice softened, brimming with hope. “Kevin, did you come to save me?”

Hearing her words, Norah turned to Kevin.

He walked to Norah’s side, ignoring Bianca completely. Taking Norah’s hand, he asked, “Why didn’t you stay in the car like I told you? Are you feeling unwell?”

Norah shook her head. “I just needed some fresh air.”

She glanced at Bianca and asked, “What’s going to happen to her?”

Only then did Kevin spare Bianca a glance.

Bianca’s voice rose, trembling with desperation. “Kevin, they’re treating me like a criminal! I saved you, and this is how they repay me?”

Kevin’s expression remained cold and indifferent. “Follow the procedure,” he said flatly.

Bianca’s face fell, her voice breaking as she pleaded, “Why, Kevin? What did I do wrong? Have you forgotten how I fought to save you?”

Kevin’s gaze was icy as he replied, “If that’s true, then why did you take me to your father?”

Bianca froze, her world crumbling as the realization hit her.

Tears streamed from her already reddened eyes. “What are you saying? Was it all fake?” she choked out. “Did you pretend to care about me just to get to Calvin? Were you doing it for her?”

Her voice cracked, her hysteria spilling over as she yelled, “You used me, Kevin! You trampled all over my love for you!”

Kevin’s tone remained calm, but his words were sharp. “You’re right. I wanted the antidote for Norah. That was all.”

Bianca staggered back as if he had struck her. “How could you do this to me?” she cried. “I loved you! I gave everything for you—even took you to my father at the risk of my own life. And what did you do? You destroyed everything. My father’s fate is uncertain, and you betrayed me. Kevin, how could you be so heartless?”

Kevin’s eyes narrowed. He was unfazed by Bianca’s accusations. “Heartless?” he said coldly. “If you hadn’t made those choices, you wouldn’t be here now. Do you think your father’s actions were right? Don’t forget who you are and what you’ve done. This outcome was inevitable.”

He continued, his tone laced with finality, “Out of respect for your parents, I once had affection for you. But you didn’t value it. You walked yourself into this dead end.”

Kevin’s affection for Bianca had long faded. He’d once cared for her, partly because she had saved his life and partly because of Siena, her mother. Their shared history gave him a sense of responsibility, but Bianca’s choices had severed those ties.

Listening to his words, Bianca’s heart shattered. Her love for him—her one desperate hope—was crushed under the weight of his coldness.

Tears streamed down her face silently. But she couldn’t stop herself from asking, “Even when you risked your life for me... was that a lie too? You acted like you didn’t care about your own life. Was it all just a show?”

Kevin glanced at Norah, as if reluctant to reveal everything in front of her. He didn’t answer Bianca’s question directly. Instead, he said, “Take her away.”

Bianca began to laugh again, tears mingling with her laughter. But as she looked at Kevin, there was no hatred in her eyes—only unshakable obsession.

When Bianca left the terrorist organization, she had used Kevin as her way out. But back then, he had been kind to her. His gentleness had been a rare, foreign feeling in her life, and she had clung to it desperately.

Even now, she couldn’t bring herself to hate him. She wanted to stand beside him, to be the woman worthy of him.

Bianca didn’t resist as they escorted her into the car.

When the door shut behind her, it also sealed off any connection she had left with Kevin.

She stared blankly ahead, her thoughts spiraling. Why couldn’t the dream last a little longer? Even if it was a lie, she didn’t want to wake up so soon.

Her anger burned—not at Kevin, but at Norah.

If Norah hadn’t appeared, none of this would’ve happened. She and Kevin could’ve been happy together. It was Norah’s fault, and the Edwards family’s fault too.

Kevin interrupted Norah’s thoughts. “Let’s go. Don’t look anymore.”

He opened the car door for her. “Get in. Let’s go home.”

Norah hesitated, watching Bianca’s car disappear into the distance. Turning back to Kevin, she asked, “What did she mean by that? What did she mean when she said you risked your life for her? What did you do?”

Kevin’s face remained calm, but he didn’t answer right away.

Norah’s eyes bore into his, waiting for him to explain.

Finally, Kevin said, “Archer gave me a choice: save one person. I didn’t choose Bianca. But in the end, Archer didn’t let her go. I fought for her. That’s what she meant.”

“That’s it?” Norah asked, her voice tinged with doubt.

Kevin’s lips curved into a faint smile as he gently touched her face. “Don’t overthink it, little fool. It’s not that complicated.”

Norah quickly knocked his hand away. “Don’t touch me! We’re divorced, Kevin. Don’t cross the line.”

Kevin sighed, his eyes full of helplessness. “Norah, I’m sorry.”

“Sorry doesn’t fix anything,” she snapped, turning away. “You broke my heart.”

Kevin’s voice softened. “I didn’t have a choice. I couldn’t let you die.”

His words hung in the air, heavy with regret. Kevin knew he wasn’t invincible. In the face of death, all he could do was surrender—because losing her was his greatest fear.
