Scarlett Yates saw clearly, her heart leaping suddenly, and hurriedly said, "You can't kill him."
Matthew Saxon glared at her with a sullen look.
Afraid he'd misunderstand, she quickly explained, "I'm not defending him, but if you kill him, you have to pay with your life. I... I don't want to be a widow."
"Scarlett Yates, you..."
She was really driving him mad.
Covering her mouth, she whispered, "Killing someone means paying with your life, it's only natural. For such a person, it's not worth sacrificing your own life. Haven't you often told me that the harshest punishment isn't death but making him suffer a life worse than death? If he falls into your hands, you can slowly torture him and force him to hand over the antidote."
"In any case... such a bloody act of murder, don't ever do it."
He wanted to mock her naivety but reconsidered, thinking it was normal for her to have such thoughts growing up in an ordinary family.
