Nemesis Game novel Chapter 70

Her humble question couldn't get his answer.

After the family doctor helped Ruben apply for medicine and dressed his wound, he left the house with his assistant.

Samantha thought of leaving and beating him up.

She even wanted to yank his collar to wake him up.

However, she couldn't move her legs.

The spacious bedroom was filled with silence.

The temperature in the bedroom was set very low. She was cold, just like her blood froze all over her body.

She slowly squatted down, wrapped her arms around herself, trying to relieve the coldness.

Ruben on the bed was breathing evenly. She raised her head, and her eyes were red.

“Ruben, can you please tell me… what’s so great about Peyton? You’ve to work so hard to defend her? What made me… worse than Peyton?” Before she finished her words, her tears rolled down again.

Her heart ached when she recalled seeing the bleeding wounds on his body.

The most difficult thing to explain in life was love. She didn't think Peyton was better than her.

Peyton grew up in the Moore family. She went to college. And everything she had was the best.

So that, Peyton was noble and proud. Samantha, the real daughter of the family, grew up in exile.

She had no father. Only her mother had a hard time raising her and her brother.

She knelt on the ground and moved to him, and then she grabbed his arm tightly. She wanted to pierce his wounds and let him experience the pain she was suffering.

When she saw his pale face, she just couldn't do it.

She let go of his arm finally. Her fingers were stroking his face.

Her eyes began to ache, "You said Peyton's writing looked good. I tried my best to learn it. I just wish you can praise me, but you didn't even look at it. You tore up my paper."

"I knew I couldn't compete with Peyton. She lived comfortably in the Moore family. She also enjoyed all the favors of you all. But I can only go to collect scraps to raise tuition fees with my brother. My hands and feet were frozen. And I’ve to be beaten on the ground just for one or two empty bottles. How do you make me be the same as her?!"

Did she feel aggravate, resentful and angry?

Of course, she was!

She was the one who should have it all. She had suffered so much and thought her suffering had been over.

But what she had got from the Moore family? Biological parents’ contempt and dislike, Peyton’s frame-up, and Caelan’s bullying!

She was an outsider in the Moore family.

Even a dog lived with more dignity than her.

“She took over my identity and my brother. You all feel sad and care for her… but have you thought about me? You aren’t what she gave up to me. You should belong to me.” she sobbed. Her emotions seem to be crumbling these days.

She had just recovered from her past. But Ruben would always touch her wound again.

She had to repeat this kind of pain all the time.

It was given by him to her.

The room was still quiet. Ruben wouldn't answer her.

It was known that he was unconscious that she dared to cry so recklessly.

She once thought her tears were dried up, but her fleshly heart was still feeling hurt!

In order not to owe her anything, he paid her back for the grievance she once suffered in the Moore family by beating himself up.

This was not enough.

Far from enough!

The more he tried to defend Peyton, the more she hated Peyton.

She wanted to do whatever it took to seek revenge on Peyton.

Would he feel the same pain that Peyton was suffering?

Haha...thinking about this, she burst into laughter.

She didn't leave Ruben’s house immediately but took a few intimate photos of herself and Ruben with her phone.

She looked at the photos on her phone. She was imagining Peyton's stormy face.

That would be great.

So, all she wanted now was Peyton to be angry. She didn't care how Peyton will retaliate against her.

This was the gift in return to Peyton for slandering her online!

She had just sent the photo to Peyton, Dillon called her for lunch. She also told her the old Mrs. Knight was on her way home.

Samantha couldn't help but smile, even God was helping her!

If others can't punish Peyton, can't the old Mrs. Knight punish her?

However, Samantha had to praise Peyton's speed to come over.

When Peyton came over, Samantha was eating fruit in the living room, she looked like a hostess.

Peyton was in exasperation.

"Why are you here in Ruben's place? Why don't you get the hell out of here? You're not welcome!" Peyton said fiercely.

Samantha pretended not to hear her words, crossing her legs and eating fruit leisurely. And she glanced at her every once in a while.

"Miss Moore!" Dillon who was tidying up in the kitchen hurriedly came out and greeted her. She gave Samantha a worried look, "Miss Powell is the guest that Ruben asked me to invite."

Peyton said ruthlessly, "Is she a guest or a bitch? She had seduced Ruben in bed!"

Samantha finished the last bite of her apple. She stood up from the sofa and shot back at her.

"So what if I’m a bitch? It's better than some people who can't even seduce him!"

Peyton choked with anger, a ruthless light surfaced under her eyes, "Helena Powell!"

Peyton wanted to slap this bitch to death, but she didn't dare to do it in Ruben’s house.

Ruben seemed to have a grudge against her last time. If she did anything else, wouldn't that ruin their relationship?

She couldn't bear this anger. This bitch and Ruben were now together.

And she deliberately took that kind of intimate photos to provoke her, how could she bear with it?

"I don't think those videos on the Internet are good watching at all." She smiled and shook her phone in front of Peyton, "If these photos were sent out, would it put the entertainment industry into turmoil? Would they like the video more or these impactful photos?"

Peyton's eyes opened wide in shock as she exclaimed, "You lunatic! If you dare to send out the photos, Ruben won't let you go!"

Peyton couldn't figure out where the photo came from.

"It doesn't matter if he lets me go or not! At the time you set me up on the set and shot the video to slander me, you should have known that some people are fearless when they are crazy!" Samantha laughed inwardly. She looked at Peyton like she was looking at an idiot.

The main reason for changing the female leading role was not because of Peyton, it was Nia.

But she just wanted to provoke Peyton. She felt so bad and wished Peyton to be the same as her.

Peyton gritted, "What do you want?"

She didn't want those pictures to be posted on the Internet. By then, Ruben and Samantha's relationship will be even more unraveling and confusing.

“Do you admit that you find those commenters to publish those videos and slander me? It was you and Nia to trick me into going to the birthday banquet? You wanted to get rid of me by the hands of Nia!” Samantha touched her chin and looked at her with a smirk.

“So what if I did? Do you think there is anyone who will believe in your words?” Peyton laughed.

Samantha smiled faintly. She looked at somewhere with the corner of her eyes raised up. She looked Peyton straight in her eyes. And her eyes landed on the man at the stairway.

“Ruben, do you believe it?”
