Chapter 109

Chapter 109 The Truth of the Past?

“At that time, I woke up from the fire. When I saw that Julia was not around, I

desperately searched the entire warehouse but did not see her,” Kerwin said in

a low voice, “she disappeared. In addition to the fact that my rope was untied, I

originally thought that she left first or someone else came in to take her away

and undid the rope for me. Thus, I left. However, the police officers who were

investigating later told me that this was impossible.”

“Why not?”

“Because they found Julia’s burnt body at the

scene. She was still tied with the rope. They

made a DNA comparison and confirmed that

it was her. Not only that, they found a blade

on the ground. This blade should be used to

cut off my body’s rope, and there were traces of blade scratches on my hand.”

This time, Betty was utterly shocked.

Indeed, everything present proved that Kerwin had used a blade to cut open the

rope

himself and then fled by himself without

worrying about Julia.

However, that was not what Kerwin

remembered.

Based on common sense, the most probable

possibility was that Kerwin had lied and

concealed the brutal acts he had committed.

“So, this is the truth of what happened back

then.” At this moment, Kerwin slowly said.

He raised his head and looked at Betty, “One

is the version in my memories, and the other

is the version that everyone investigated.

Betty, which one do you believe?”

Betty didn’t expect Kerwin to suddenly ask

her this, so she couldn’t help but be stunned.

She looked into Kerwin’s black eyes, which were mysterious like obsidian.

Vaguely, she seemed to be able to see his indistinct

expectations below.

Betty’s eyes had a flash of heartache, and she said softly, “I believe you.”

Kerwin’s eyes flickered for a moment, but

soon, he said, “Whether what you said is true or not, I am still delighted to hear

you say

so.”

As he spoke, he looked away. Unexpectedly, Betty suddenly squatted in front of

him, took

his hand, and looked at him, who was in a

wheelchair.

“I’m serious.” Betty sincerely said, “Just like

back then, when you chose to believe me, I

also believed you. No matter how conclusive

the evidence is, I will believe you as long as

you say it.”

Betty’s words were so earnest that each word

seemed to have pierced into Kerwin’s heart.

Kerwin’s heart trembled slightly. He couldn’t help but hold Betty’s hand tightly.

All these years, even his grandfather, who had watched him grow up, had never

truly believed in him.

Although he never cared about other people’s views and opinions, he did care

about

Betty’s.

If Betty was also like others, and she thought he would abandon the person he

liked, he might still get hurt.

But she said that she believed him.

Looking at Betty’s bright eyes, he felt a faint warmth in his heart. But at the

same time, he

couldn’t help but laugh bitterly. “But Betty,

do you know? Sometimes, even I don’t

believe in myself.”

Betty was stunned. “What do you mean?”

“When they investigated this case ten years ago, I was hypnotized and got

psychological treatment to prove that what I said was true. Indeed, all the

experts proved that I was not lying. Still, the psychologist said I might have been

injected with the knockout drug at that time, plus the stimulation, so I had a

memory disorder. I forgot how I untied the rope with a knife and how to abandon

Julia. I may make up a false memory because didn’t dare to face my own

mistakes.”

Betty was stunned. She blurted out, “How is that possible?”

She knew Kerwin was so powerful that there

was no room for doubt. How could he deceive

himself and escape?

“Yes, I also think it’s impossible.” The

bitterness on the corners of Kerwin’s mouth

deepened. He reached out to touch Betty’s

cheek and said in a low voice, “But at that

time, I was a little afraid. After all, I was not

mature enough.”

Betty was stunned.

Yes.

She almost forgot that Kerwin ten years ago was not the Kerwin she knew. To

put it bluntly, he was just a child. Such a terrible kidnapping case would bring

him great fear.

But the trance only lasted a moment, and she quickly held Kerwin’s hand. When

she spoke again, her tone was full of firmness. “It won’t happen, Kerwin. Even if

it were you ten years ago, you would never do that kind

Chapter 109 The Truth of the Past?

of thing.”

Betty’s words were spoken without hesitation as if there was a force behind

them. Kerwin looked at her and could not

help but smile.

“Betty, you are so stupid.” He reached out to

hold her little face, and his tone was full of

strange love. “You blindly trust others, and

be careful not to be deceived.”

“You definitely won’t lie to me.” Betty blurted out. But after she finished

speaking, she couldn’t help but take another look at Kerwin. She probed,

“Right?“.

The smile on Kerwin’s face widened. He bent down, and his lips landed on

Betty’s forehead.

It was a feather–like gentle kiss. It went down from Betty’s forehead to the tip of

her nose and then to her lips.

“I won’t lie to you, Betty.” After the kiss, he said in a low voice, “But you have to

promise me that you will protect yourself.”

Betty was a little confused by Kerwin’s

tickling kiss. When she heard the second half of his sentence, she looked up in

a trance.

“Protect myself?”

“Yes.” Kerwin looked at Betty in front of him

and said involuntarily, “Do you know how

scared I was when I found out that our house

was on fire a few days ago?”

Betty was stunned.

She had known him for a while, but this was

the first time she had heard Kerwin say that

he was “scared.”

Was it because he was worried about her?

“Fire.” Kerwin looked at Betty and continued

in a low voice, “They have already taken.

the second time.“.

Betty felt an explosion in her head. She was

dumbfounded and looked at Kerwin in

disbelief.

The woman he liked?

The second time?

What did Kerwin mean?

In fact, the meaning of Kerwin’s words was

straightforward, but Betty only felt that

everything was too dreamy. She did not dare

to think about it carefully, let alone confirm

anything with Kerwin.

Therefore, she could only look at Kerwin in a daze. Her eyes were round, and

her mouth was slightly open. She was like a little goldfish that had been

dehydrated.

Betty’s appearance was really too stupid. Kerwin couldn’t help but burst into

laughter.

Only then did Betty realize something and quickly shut her mouth. She wanted

to stand up.

However, as soon as she stood up, Kerwin suddenly grabbed her hand and

pulled her into his embrace.

Betty fell on his lap. Before she could cry out

in surprise, Kerwin grabbed her chin, covered her mouth with his thin lips, and

swallowed all her cries of surprise.
