Chapter 1801: Just a Shell of a Body
Afterwards, she noticed that the women who used to be seen with Felix suddenly disappeared
overnight. And this renowned playboy, who always had women around him, now only had her.
She admitted that he was skilled and knew how to please her in that aspect, making her experience
pleasurable and even addictive.
Often, he didn't need to ask, she herself wanted it. So, she was willing to maintain this kind of
relationship with him.
This kind of thing was like opening Pandora's box-it was unstoppable.
She never revealed her emotions. For the past four years, she truly treated him as a "bedmate."
But in reality, as time passed, imperceptibly, she had long since moved her feelings and given her heart
to him.novelbin
So, when he expressed his desire to have a child, she agreed.
When she saw him in danger and instinctively shielded him from a bullet, it was simply her body and
mind responding without any ulterior motive.
All along.
What she was concerned about were the unresolved hidden dangers from the past, the person in front
of her, Rayan, and the lurking danger...
She didn't want to drag Felix down because she herself didn't know what her future held.
Cloud grabbed Vicki by the collar. "Why don't you continue speaking? Have you changed your views?
Do you think Felix is a good person? You married him not to seek revenge on the Saunders family but
because you truly love him?"
In fact, he already had the answer in his heart. He just refused to accept it.
Vicki straightforwardly replied, "Yes, I love him."
Cloud's expression suddenly darkened, his face turning cold like remaining ashes. He gripped Vicki's
collar, trembling even, and asked, "Then what am I? What am I in your heart?"
Vicki took a deep breath. "We can't go back to the past. Ever since you insisted on escaping, we
haven't been able to go back, Rayan."
She looked at him with sincere eyes. "I liked you, you know. I've always liked you. When we were in the
orphanage, you were my only family. The line between familial love and romantic love is thin. I don't
deny that during the time I was imprisoned, you were all I thought about. You saved me, you were a
light in my life."
"I did everything for you. Vicki, ask yourself, when I killed Xiao Zhen, I was already eighteen years old. I
was sentenced to ten years for intentional murder. You know very well that I did it for you. Why couldn't
you wait for me?"
He questioned her with a pained heart.
"I didn't wait for you? Rayan?" Vicki's eyes filled with a hint of pain. "I'm not grateful to you? I know very
well that you saved me. You killed Xiao Zhen, and I was an accomplice. I wasn't yet eighteen, so I was
given probation. Killing, no matter how evil Xiao Zhen was, is still a crime. If you had served your
sentence, you would have been free by now, breathing the air of freedom with a clear conscience. I
would have waited for you. I would have been with you when you got out. We wouldn't be like this
today. We would have continued on together, just like when we were children!"
Cloud's eyes reddened with anger. "How can I rest assured with you out there alone? I escaped to
protect you. What did I do wrong?"
"You were wrong, very wrong! Rayan, these are not reasons to agree to the other party's conditions.
They got you out of prison, but what was the price you paid? You sold yourself to OGW like a dog. How
many things have you done against your conscience? How much blood is on your hands? This isn't
you, Rayan. No, Cloud. You even abandoned your own country, your own name. You even joined
forces with Athena. You have changed, you have lost yourself. How can you still expect me to retain
my original intentions?" Vicki hit Cloud's heart with each word, revealing the past.
Back then, Rayan had been sentenced to ten years for intentional murder, initially a twenty-year
sentence. But due to the grave crimes of Xiao Zhen, the court had shown leniency. He went to prison,
and she felt immense pain. Because he did it for her.
She had thought about waiting for him, even telling him that if he behaved well in prison, he could be
released three years early. At that time, she was in her twenties, still young, and they had a lifetime
ahead of them.
But he ultimately took the wrong path. The mysterious organization Rohomes noticed his abilities, and
they proposed an exchange. He agreed. Escaping meant that he would be blacklisted in Pascaylia. So,
he had to changehis name and identity. Rayan became Cloud.
This wasn't what she wanted. It shouldn't have been like this.
After he disappeared, she desperately worked on strengthening herself. Later, she met Christian and
became a valuable assistant to the Ballard family. If Rayan had waited for her, by then, she had the
ability to legally bring him out of prison.
Unfortunately, it was all too late.
They had drifted further and further apart.
He had lost himself.
And she, her original intentions had grown cold, eventually falling in love with someone else.
"I'm not wrong!" Cloud's eyes burned with anger. "I joined OGW because I realized that we had no
power, no authority, and could only be bullied. I couldn't bear to see you being bullied by others. Even if
I had to walk the path of darkness to the end, I wanted to have the power to protect you. And I did.
Now, I lead the entire OGW. I can have whatever I want, as easily as flipping my hand."
Vicki looked at him with disappointment, shaking her head gently. "In that case, there's nothing more to
say. I know that you must have a special mission coming to Khebury. Is kidnapping Anderson related to
the warlords?"
"Yes," Cloud brushed Vicki's cheek and slid his hand down.
Suddenly, with a tearing sound, he forcefully tore open her clothes, revealing a large expanse of
beautiful skin on her chest. Healthy colors, textures from regular exercise, lines that were well-defined,
causing one's blood to surge.
"Just as long as I obtain this, complete the final mission, I can leave OGW. I will make it happen," he
said, his eyes filled with desire, unable to look away from her.
"I want to take back everything that is rightfully mine, including you, Vicki."
He reached out, brushing his fingers along the contours of her skin. "I want you. I want you right now.
You belong to me, you should have always belonged to me!"
He bent down like a madman, biting and nibbling at her neck, trying to cover up the traces left by Felix.
Vicki lay there, looking at the ceiling, completely motionless.
She calmly said, "My body is just a shell. If you want it, take it. It was my debt to you in the first place,
and I used my body to repay it."
Those words were like a bucket of cold water, poured directly over him.
The intense heat that had driven him mad suddenly cooled down, turning as cold as ashes. The
pleasure from his body was only temporary. What he wanted was not just her body. If it was just for
that, when they were in the orphanage, he could have claimed her for himself. Back then, she had
been willing. He didn't steal forbidden fruit. He had remained faithful. Everything he did was to protect
her heart.
But now, what was he doing?
