NovelXXXChapter 614 Are they even human anymore? Bastards. The two of them were absolute monsters.
Under his venomous gaze, Sawyer finally relaxed, letting out a long breath as he nodded.
A satisfied smile spread across his face. "Good. As long as she wakes up and stops going against Jeanette, the Iverson family will make sure she never wants for anything in her life." As soon as Sawyer finished, Theo spoke up. "Whatever the case, Citrine is still my girlfriend. When she wakes up, I'll make it up to her. I promise." Sawyer's smile faded, just a little.

At those words, the warmth drained from Theo's eyes. He gave Sawyer a warning look. "I've never even considered breaking up with Citrine." Sawyer stared at him, disbelief plain on his face. "But you treat Jeanette so well- and besides... Jeanette's completely in love with you." "If you don't break up with Citrine, Jeanette's going to be heartbroken." Theo paused, as if smemory surfaced, then said quietly, "I only see Jeanette as a sister. Nothing more." He glanced at the hospital bed, at Jeanette's sleeping form, and said solemnly, "Still, you have my word: I'll always protect Jeanette. Even Citrine won't be allowed to hurt her." Sawyer found Theo more and more unreadable. He thought of all the times Jeanette had cried in secret over Theo, and in the end, he couldn't help feeling indignant for his daughter.
"Theo, I just don't get it. Jeanette loves you. You're so good to her. For her sake, you didn't even hesitate to have Citrine's kidney taken out. So why-why on earth can't you just break up with Citrine?" Theo pressed his lips together and stayed silent for a long moment. Finally, he said in a hard voice, "Letmake this absolutely clear. I will never break up with Citrine, and I don't want to hear this again." He added, "In fact, once Citrine is out of the hospital, we're getting married." "What? And what about Jeanette?" Sawyer's eyes went wide with anger, glaring at Theo in disbelief.
Theo's patience was wearing thin.
He frowned and said curtly, "Jeanette is like a sister to me. As long as I'm around, no matter who she marries, no one will ever mistreat her." Sawyer was about to argue further when suddenly, Jeanette let out a piercing scream.
At the smoment, the glass in her hand slipped and shattered on the floor with a sharp crash.
Both Sawyer and Theo turned at once, rushing over in alarm.
Sawyer hovered over his daughter, worry etched on his face. "Jeanette, are you hurt?" "Did you burn yourself? Letsee." Theo was even more anxious, gently grabbing Jeanette's hand to check for injuries.
Watching all this unfold, Raymond finally understood everything. His face was ashen, stomach churning with revulsion.

If even he, a bystander, felt this sick, how much worse must it be for Citrine, who was so innocent and kind? Her adoptive father and her boyfriend-together, they'd stolen her kidney to save Jeanette.
Monsters. They deserved to rot.
The three of them carried on with their little charade, all tender concern and affection, making Raymond so nauseous he couldn't stand another second. He immediately forced his overet
