Supreme Mars novel Chapter 138

She said she wished him to die.

A vicious curse came out from Lydia's mouth in a chilling tone, which shocked Leo sitting opposite and caused his brows to knit.

With a meat pie fallen from her unsteady hand, the little girl Emilia was also terrified by the words of her mom.

"What happened, mammy?" Nestling against Leo's chest with a worried look on her innocent face, Emilia asked under her voice.

Bringing herself back to the moment, Lydia realized that she had been overreacting to the phone call. In haste, she hung off the call, blacklisted the phone number and apologized to her daughter, "I'm so sorry, Emilia. Do I scare you, sweetie?'

"No, I'm OK, mummy." Looking at her mom with her crystalline eyes, Emilia shook her head and said apprehensively, "Please don't be angry, mummy. Emilia will be a good girl, and won't get you angry anymore…"

Hearing her words, Lydia was choked by the speechless bitterness inside, and the look on her face turned increasingly remorseful.

Her overreaction was the cause of everything. However, her daughter misunderstood that she was the one who irritated her mom, and that made Lydia can not help but to apologize hastily with remorse, "Mummy is not angry, and Emilia has always been a good and heart-warming girl."

Taking over Emilia from Leo's embrace, Lydia held her daughter in her arms closely as if she feared that she might lose her at the next second.

Leo found something not right, and then asked in a deep tone, "Who was calling in? Who is the one you are talking about?"

Lydia fell into silence, and a shadow of grievance could be obviously seen in her eyes.

At this moment, her phone rang again — another unknown number was calling in again.

Lydia wanted to hang it up, but Leo stopped her with a shake of his head, as a flicker of ice-cold hostility crossed his face.

He would like to 

With a pause of hesitation, Lydia put through the call.

"Lydia, why are you hanging me off again? You know it means nothing to blacklist me. I have a thousand ways to figure out where you are…" 

A frivolous voice sounded as Lydia put through the call.

"Who are you?" Leo asked with a cold voice.

Suddenly, the one on the other end of the phone fell silent, and the only thing heard was the sound of his quick and heavy breath.

When the man's voice was heard again, his tune turned serious and cold, "There is a man beside you, Lydia."

"I'm her husband." Said Leo.

Leo turned off the hands-off mode, put the phone closer to his ear and asked coldly, "Who are you?"

With a long pause of hesitation, the man asked tentatively, "Well… Are you Leo? The one who caused Lydia pregnant and then disappeared for five years?"

Although he could never bear anyone to touch the bleeding wound inside of him, Leo still suppressed the anger within and answered, "Yes, it's me." 

"Ah ah ah ah!" Knowing who he was speaking to, the man burst into laughter rampantly.

The unruly, sarcastic laughter was such a vicious mockery of Leo.

"You think it's funny, huh?" Said Leo frostily, "Believe it or not: no matter where you are, I shall find you out and pull your tongue apart if you dare to laugh anymore."

"Then I suggest that you'd better not to do so. Putting aside whether you have enough power or not, you will definitely flinch no matter what if you know who I am." Fearlessly, the man laughed.

"Oh, really? Then tell me who the hell are you." Answered Leo with a laugh.

In Leo's mind, there was no one in this world he would ever be afraid of.

The laughter of the man came to an end in a sudden, and he then uttered in a chilling tone, "My name is Terry, and I'm Lydia's brother."

Hearing his answer, Leo fell silent. If the man was really Lydia's brother, then it would mean that he was his brother-in-law.

"Why are you not speaking, tough guy? I thought you are someone who has guts." Again, Terry burst into laughter, "If you are just a coward all bark and no bite, then you should divorce Lydia. Otherwise, you shall die because of her!"

"What do you mean by that?" Leo resumed the cold expression on his face, and asked.

"It's natural that anyone should pay for the sin they commit. And if one has nothing to pay for it, then he shall take his life as a price." With his tone turned sullen and increasingly hostile, Terry said, "Don't blame me for what goes on you if you are hunted down out there some other days."

"Really? You are totally free to try that on me." Leo took a deep breath, with the expression of composure on his face restored.

"Who are you talking to, dad?" Noticing the change of her father's face, Emilia, nestling in the embrace of Lydia, asked in a whisper.

With a flicker of smile, Leo answered, ‘Nothing. It's just a friend of daddy."

Saying so, he then winked at Lydia, and walked out of the restaurant.

Again, the sneering voice of Terry sounded on the phone again, "So, I guess the voice was from the little bastard given birth by you and Lydia, wasn't it?"

Hearing that, Leo could tolerate no more of his wrath and rage hidden inside, and even the air around him turned chilling as if being devoured by his murderous hostility.

At the next moment, even the street lamps on both sides of the streets were shattered to blow out due to his anger.

"You shall pay for what you have just said with your life! I would be more than happy to tear you apart ten thousand times!" Said Leo coldly.

In this world, there were two precious things that he would never allow others to insult — one was his wife, and the other was his daughter.

Then, Terry chose not to keep irritating Leo anymore as if he had already felt the wrath hidden deep behind his words. Instead, he said with his tone turned serious, "Listen, if your daughter had not been born, things would be much easier and better. However, the fact is that you two had chose to give birth to her, which means that she is now nothing more than a little bastard! I'm not the only one who wants your daughter to die — it is the wish of nearly every single member of the family! And you, Leo, are the reason of everything! It's you who sullied Lydia and caused her pregnancy, and it's because of your sins in the past that your daughter is going to die! You have no ideas about who you are fighting against, and everything started from the moment when you decided to crave for something that you are not worthy of!"

Hearing that, Leo closed his eyes for a while, and, when he opened them at the next moment, the both of his eyeballs were covered with darkness.

His eyes turned pitch-dark, and his hair became jet-black. Only those who knew Leo well would understand that he was at his most terrifying at such a moment.

With a laugh, Leo grinned, "I guess you guys are from Valenham aren't you?"

"Exactly! We are loyal families in Country YD, also known as the Ford family!"

There was an immense sense of proud within his words, which was an innate sense of proud inside of Terry since the day he was born.

"Fine." Said Leo with a cold voice, "One day, I shall come to your place, together with my wife and my daughter, to see what you guys from loyal families in Country YD really got!"

"You're more than welcome to do so." Answered Terry with a chuckle, "However, I don't think that you and your precious daughter could ever make it until that day."

With a pause, he then continued, "Besides, I have my own ways to handle you even though we are in different places. Just wait and see, one of you old friends in Emerdale will come to you soon."

Terry hung off the call as his voice faded.

Putting down the phone, Leo looked up. The dark clouds had spread and covered the whole sky, and a fierce wind was howling, cutting through his flesh and bones.

Leo turned back, and found that her wife Lydia, with her hand holding that of Emilia, was looking at him with red eyes.
