The Broken-hearted She And The Icy He (Lily and John) novel Chapter 631

631 Mad Possession

She had to get out of here immediately. She absolutely could not let this madman, Mergan, harm the babies in her belly.

“Mergan, I despise you, but I still called you ‘brother‘ for over a decade. Wanting to be with your own adopted sister… you’re truly disgusting!”

Lily stared at him with wariness and disgust, enunciating every word. “Let go. I won’t be a part of your madness!”

Disgusting…

Mergan already had a gloomy disposition. After hearing Lily’s words, his expression turned so foul it was as if someone had murdered his entire family.

In truth, sometimes he also felt he was insane for harboring such feelings for his adopted sister.

When he first became aware of these feelings, he felt he was utterly shameless and tried to suppress them.

But the harder he tried to restrain himself, the desire to obtain her, to possess her exclusively, only grew more wildly in his mind.

He would dream of her at night, tangling with her madly time and time again.

He had already sunk into obsession and could no longer bring himself to see her merely as his adopted sister.

Only by possessing her exclusively, by trapping her in a prison of his own making, could his already unhinged heart find some measure of salvation.

This time, after so much preparation and meticulous scheming, he had finally brought her into his domain. How could he possibly let go?

He didn’t want to argue with her. He suppressed the hostility in his eyes and said softly, “Lily, we’re not related by blood. Why can’t we be together? We used to get along so well. You relied on me wholeheartedly, you adored me, and I cared deeply for you… I truly know I was wrong. I shouldn’t have only believed Mathilda’s side of the story. From now on, I will trust you and cherish you. Stop thinking about James. Let’s just be together, alright?”

Madman! Lily’s gaze was still filled with disgust and wariness.

Even when they were on the best of terms, she had only ever seen him as family, as a brother. She had never felt a trace of romantic interest in him. How could she possibly be with him?

Besides, for Mathilda’s sake, he had repeatedly trampled on her dignity and forced her into impossible situations. She was no saint. How could she possibly live in harmony with such a

man?

“Mergan, this only makes me hate you more!”

Lily was so frantic that a fine sheen of sweat broke out on her forehead.

Just as she was about to say more, he suddenly surged forward, pulling her into a death grip.

“Lily, I know you resent me, that you can’t forgive me easily. But even if you despise me, even if you hate me, I won’t let go. We had twelve years together… We’ll have many more twelve years in the future. Things will get better and better between us…”

He held her so tightly that Lily, frantic and furious, raised her hand and slapped him hard across the face.

“Mergan, I’m not a masochist who develops feelings for her captor. James will find me! And when he does, he will never let you get away with this!”

“Lily, James won’t be looking for you anymore.”

A shadow flickered in Mergan’s eyes. He held her even tighter, his grip paranoid and frenzied, as if trying to merge her into his very being.

“He found half a female corpse in the deep sea, devoured by sharks. The body was bloated beyond recognition. Everyone believes it’s your body. James saw it with his own eyes. He’s convinced you were eaten by sharks. Why would he keep looking for you? Lily, you are mine. You can only be mine!”

Lily’s face went deathly pale.

She couldn’t bear to imagine such a coincidence–that James would see such a thing while searching for her.

He cares for her so much. If he’s convinced she was devoured by sharks, how will he be able to go on living?

She was terrified he might do something drastic.

She wished she could sprout wings and fly to him.

But she was trapped by this paranoid fanatic. She couldn’t even leave the house she was imprisoned in, much less get to him.

“Lily, stop thinking about James.”

Mergan’s voice was laced with a dark insecurity. “I’ve loved you for so, so long. Don’t leave me. Never leave me…”
