Love Game With The Rebel Billionaire

Chapter 149: It’s Impossible For Us To Be Together Now.

At that moment, adrenaline surged through me. My entire body trembled, but my anger grew stronger.

My vision darkened as I stared at him. All I could see now was blood.

"No one owns me..." I growled through gritted teeth. "No one can claim me!"

Before I knew it, he punched me on the stomach. I had fallen to my knees as I felt the sharp pain. I closed my eyes and winced.

"Don't act like you don't like me," he said, kneeling before me and gently stroking my hair. "Just once, Sapphire. I just want to taste you. Why are you making this hard for both of us, huh?" "I don't want to hurt anyone. Don't do this..." I begged, gripping his arm with both hands.

I wasn't afraid of him anymore-I was afraid of myself. I feared what I might do to him, especially as my emotions spiraled out of control.

I remember everything from my childhood. I know how to fight, but I don't know how to control myself.

"Just once. I'll let you go after this."

That was it.

When his hand moved to my shoulder to rip my blouse, I grabbed his right hand and twisted it, catching him off guard. He tried to kick me, but I was too quick, dodging easily.

With all my strength, I forced his hand and the knife it held-toward his chest, stabbing him. His eyes widened in shock, and blood spilled from his mouth.

I could've stopped there. I could've run and escaped. But something in my mind told me not to let him live.

I stabbed him twice more everywhere-especially in the face. My lips curved into a sinister smile as his blood splattered on my blouse. It felt satisfying to see his lifeless body. And with that, I vowed that no one would ever see me as a pushover again.
