From Hatred to Passionate Love Amelia Hart

Chapter 136 Hate Me, Love Me, That's Enough

Kelvin gave a firm nod, his hand reaching behind him to retrieve the concealed knife. "Dispose of this," he commanded, his voice echoing in the room, "No sharp objects in this room anymore, not a single one."

He had observed earlier that Penelope had snuck the knife under her pillow, yet he had chosen not to confront her or confiscate it. He had entertained the thought that she might have kept it for him, and he was prepared to give her that opportunity.

However, to his astonishment, in those decisive moments, Penelope had turned the knife towards herself rather than him.

Despite his palm being heavily bandaged, a dark crimson stain was slowly seeping through.

"I won't kill you, and you won't let me die..." Penelope's voice wafted through the room, frail and weak, "Kelvin, are you planning to keep us both trapped in this forever?"

"Yes," he responded without hesitation.

"Why?" she pressed.

His voice was laden with emotion, "Because you belong to me."

Penelope bit her lower lip, her voice trembling, "But I don't love you. I despise you. And your love, it's more than I can bear!"

"Hate me, then. My love for you is enough." Kelvin's voice was resolute. Penelope challenged him, "Aren't you afraid that one day, I'll once again have a knife aimed straight at your heart?"

Kelvin laughed at her words, a sound devoid of humor.

"I should remind you of something," he said, his tone serious, "unless I allow it, no one can hurt me. Penelope, the fact that you were able to wound me was because I let you. Understand?"

"Kelvin, does it feel good? Holding all the control, always being in charge?" Penelope's gaze was unyielding, staring him down.

Everything was under his control, his vigilant eye. No surprises, no mistakes-could that really feel so wonderful?

"I can't control you," Kelvin replied. "Penelope, you're an exception."

He stood up, meeting her gaze, "And just now, I gave you a chance to kill me, to take my heart. But you didn't seize it, so... there won't be another chance."

"Now, Penelope, I'm the one who will take your heart." His tone was so confident and relaxed, it was chilling.

Penelope grabbed a pillow and hurled it at him, "I don't want to see you, Kelvin... You're the devil, a complete demon!"

"You have a lifetime ahead to feel the devil's affection," he retorted.
