My Accidental Husband Is My Revenge Partner - Chapter 76

Chapter 76: She Stabbed Him
Selene couldn’t look at him for long as she felt disgust crawl onto her skin. She couldn’t believe Xavier had done such a thing to his brother.

Xavier pulled her inside. Selene had to cover her nose this time around since the smell only got stronger as she neared Richard, who was unconscious on the seat wired with wires.

“Wake him up,” Xavier ordered.

Maxwell lifted a bucket of ice water and poured it on Richard. The latter woke up instantly, but couldn’t jolt due to how weak his body had become.

Richard stared at Selene, shock written all over his face.

He moved his head to stare at Xavier with a smirk on his bloodied lips.

“So you brought her here so that she can see the way you have been torturing me? Classic Xavier,” said Richard. He spat out saliva before his gaze landed back on Selene. “You can see what this bastard is doing to me right? Why don’t you say anything? Do you approve of this?” He questioned her.

Selene didn’t know what to think of the current situation. She was aware Xavier was punishing Richard for what he did to her, but she couldn’t help but feel a pang of pity for him.

When she realized she was starting to pity him, she immediately looked away.

“You only got what you deserve, Richard? After what you tried to do to me that night, did you think that I would forgive you? You must be dreaming,” she spouted.

A smirk pulled on Richard’s lips.

When he woke up from the first day Xavier had brought him to the hideout, he was surprised since he didn’t know where he was. Richard had no idea about Xavier’s other work and the latter didn’t bother to explain it to him either.

After being tortured and starved for the past few days, Richard could feel his energy wearing out. He feared that one day, he was going to sleep and never wake up again.

“So you are going to let him kill me?” He asked Selene.

Selene’s heart skipped a beat at that question. Her lips formed into a thin line since she didn’t know how to answer that question.

“I won’t be the one to decide your last fate, Selene will,” Xavier responded.

Everyone in the room, excluding Maxwell, turned their heads to look at Xavier.

“What?” Selene asked him, confusion etched on her face.

Xavier stared at her, a small grin on his lips which only confused her further. “This is your chance to get your revenge on Richard for everything he has done to you, Selene. If you want to kill him, there’s no problem with that, I’m fine with it,” he said.

Selene shook her head. “But he’s your brother.”

“He was no longer my brother after what he did to you.” Walking towards a scalpel that was in a basin, Xavier picked it up.

Selene’s eyes widened in shock when she saw the fingers in the basin. She had been so busy, looking at Richard’s face that she didn’t dare to look at his other body parts.

“Hurt him,” Xavier said, handing the scalpel to him. Selene stared at the bloody shiny metal before her. She didn’t need to touch the blade to know it was sharp.

“Xavier,” she called him, a little hesitant to do it.

“Ha! You are just as weak as Anastasia. The only reason I wasn’t able to succeed with what I planned to do to you that night was because Xavier arrived. If not, I would have done exactly what Michelle asked of me and uploaded—-AHHH!!!”

Richard didn’t get the chance to complete his sentence when he felt a sharp pain in his belly. He glared at Selene who had just stabbed in his stomach.

Selene had been so fast with her movements, that even Xavier, who was near her, didn’t predict her actions at all.

“You bitch!!” Richard cursed at her while saliva drooled out of his mouth as he tried to suppress the pain he was feeling at that moment.

With the anger that surged through her body, Selene punched Richard across the face, shocking everyone in the room, including Amanda whose eyes widened in admiration as she stared at Selene.

“Oww,” Selene moaned in pain as she clenched her fist together. This was the first time she had punched someone and she could feel her knuckles hurt badly.

Immediately, Xavier brought her closer to him while Kace took the scalpel out of Richard’s body, making the latter scream more in pain. Blood flushed out of his body, staining the ground with it.

Xavier took Selene to his room. Sometimes, when they finished their missions late, he would end up crashing at the hideout and he had a private room for such probabilities.

The room wasn’t as large as his room at his mansion, but it was portable enough for someone to sleep comfortably in.

Selene sat down on the bed and watched as Xavier strode towards a fridge and brought out a pack of ice with a piece of cloth.

He wiped the blood from her hands before placing the ice pack on it. “Does it hurt much?” He asked.

Selene shook her head, lying.

“I wasn’t expecting you to be so fierce, but that’s a good sign. You won’t hesitate to torture the Harrison family when you have gotten your revenge,” he added, pressing the pack of ice on her hand.

Selene had also been surprised with her actions. She didn’t plan to stab him at all, she didn’t want to, but hearing him speak something as disgusting as that fueled her already suppressed anger to the extent she had to stab him to quench it.

“I didn’t think I would be able to do what I did earlier,” she mumbled. “But I’m glad I did. I won’t bat an eyelash if I have to stain my hands with the blood of my enemies,” she added.

Xavier stiffened for a second, taking her words in as a faint smirk played on his lips. The smirk faltered when he remembered something Richard said a while back.

“Michelle was the one who sent Richard to come to you that night?” He asked her.
