He couldn't help but think of the encounter with Eugene in the garage before, when he had mocked him triumphantly. Now, it seemed like a huge joke!
That guy had played with his wife. No wonder Eugene had whispered something to Cathy's ear, and no wonder Cathy refused to go upstairs, going back and forth to sell herself!
Yesterday's instant noodles and water came for this reason! No, even earlier, why did Eugene transfer $5000 to Cathy that day?
"Jerk, I'll teach you a lesson again!" Christian walked into the kitchen, grabbed a kitchen knife, and rushed out.
Why, was he going to fight Eugene to the death? What man could tolerate being cuckolded?
Cathy and Isabel, upon seeing him, forgot their pain and hurriedly followed him outside.
But how could they catch up with the furious Christian? They chased after him, but soon lost sight of him.
Christian stormed into the underground garage, wielding a kitchen knife, looking like he was about to kill someone, making everyone on the way hurriedly dodge.
"What's going on?"
"Who is he going to fight with?"
"Who stole their food?"
Now, what's bigger than stealing food and water?
Clang clang clang, Christian's eyes were full of anger, with no one else in sight, striding quickly towards the villa where Eugene was.
"Is he going to find... Eugene?"
"What grudge could he have with Eugene, as if his wife was cheating on him, damn it!"
Everyone looked at each other, suddenly realizing.
Cathy was cheating, and the target was Eugene!
Thinking of this, they couldn't help but feel envy and jealousy.
Cathy was known as the beauty of the neighborhood, calling her the most beautiful was not an exaggeration, but what was even more enticing was her figure, curvaceous and seductive, definitely a rare beauty in the world.
What man wouldn't want to sleep with her? But where was the opportunity?
Now, Cathy was having an affair with Eugene?
Oh my god, that lucky bastard!
When disaster strikes, doesn't everyone's money turn into a string of meaningless numbers?
Why would Cathy let Eugene sleep with her?
Everyone was curious and followed, but dared not get too close, afraid that Christian would lose his mind and kill on sight.
Christian entered the long corridor, his phone had long run out of battery, so there was no way to use it for illumination. He was already furious, walking in the dark without slowing down, even hitting the wall, which made him even more furious, cursing non-stop.
Finally, he felt the iron gate and knocked with the kitchen knife.
"Eugene, you dare mess with my wife, get out here, I'll kill you!"
People were just speculating before, but now that he said it, it was like a confession, and everyone was like, "Oh," realizing it.
Envy! Just as they said, Cathy was so charming, how could she be a chaste woman?
Unfortunately, she was played by Eugene, if it were them... Every man couldn't help but swallow their saliva, even the sixty or seventy-year-old men were no exception. Men are young until they die.
Christian kept smashing the door, sparks flew.
At this moment, Cathy and Isabel also hurried over.
Seeing everyone watching, Cathy stumbled and almost fainted.
It's over, her reputation was ruined.
More importantly, with Christian making such a scene, would Eugene still do business with her in the future?
She was going to starve and die of thirst!
What to do now?
Click! The iron gate opened, light spilled out, and warm air overflowed.
Christian couldn't help but shield his eyes. His eyes had grown accustomed to the darkness, and suddenly being exposed to the light made him feel a strong stinging sensation.
Eugene turned on the light, using a flashlight, and it was a powerful one. This was enough to cause significant damage to Christian's eyesight.
Christian was already furious, and now he was even more resentful. He tightened the handle of the knife in his hand and roared, "Eugene, you played with my wife, how are you going to compensate me?"
Cathy nearly fainted again.
You said it yourself! I can't face anyone anymore!
Eugene's voice came out, "How do you want me to compensate?"
In fact, he had a transactional relationship with Cathy and Isabel. It was consensual, and there was no question of compensation. But since Christian had come looking for trouble, he might as well play along.
Christian couldn't hide his greed, "Compensate me by giving me your villa. Then that bitch is yours, I'm tired of her anyway!"
Cathy bringing back so much instant noodles and purified water meant what? Eugene definitely had more food and water in his possession.
Christian might act tough, but could he still cherish her when his wife had been played with and tainted?
No, let this adulterous couple freeze, starve, and thirst to death!
Cathy's face blushed uncontrollably, as if she had been punched hard. Shame, anger, and disappointment at her misplaced affection overwhelmed her. She had been devoted to Christian, even when he gambled away everything, yet she didn't leave him. She even resorted to selling her body to get food for her husband.
And this was the repayment she got?
Cathy collapsed, sitting on the ground.
Swish! The flashlight shone directly into Christian's eyes. Even when he tried to shield them with his hands, it was futile. He had to step back repeatedly, stumbling and crashing into the wall before stopping. The intense light dazzled him.
Eugene stepped out, sneering. "You've got quite the appetite."
"Eugene, I'm taking you down!" Christian roared, swinging the knife towards Eugene.
He couldn't even see where Eugene was, just blindly swinging towards the light.
In this moment, his mind was completely clouded by anger.
Eugene chuckled and kicked out.
Christian couldn't see anything, but Eugene could see clearly. He landed a solid kick on Christian's abdomen, sending him stumbling backward, crashing and rolling until he finally stopped at the end of the corridor, sitting on the ground.
With a clang, the knife fell to the ground.
Eugene picked up the fallen knife as he walked over. When he reached Christian, the blade was already at his throat.
Christian, still dazed, just came to his senses and saw the knife in front of him. He was almost scared out of his wits.
The courage born of anger immediately ebbed away like a tide, replaced by fear gripping his heart tightly, making cold sweat break out on his back involuntarily.
"D-don't do anything rash!" he stammered.
In this moment, he reverted to the pathetic gambler he was months ago, trembling.
Eugene glanced at Cathy, a hint of evil smile on his lips, and said, "I'm thinking of buying your wife. What's your price? How many packs of instant noodles and water?"
"This..." Christian hesitated.
He could do without his wife because Cathy had cheated on him, she had betrayed him. But if he sold her to Eugene, the nature of the situation would be different.
Was he still a man?
In ancient times, only pathetic gamblers would sell their wives.
If he named a price, he would be nailed to the pillar of shame.
"Hurry up, my patience is limited." Eugene pressed the knife to Christian's neck, the cold blade making Christian shiver, and suddenly, a surge of heat burst out from his body.
Luckily, it was cold weather, he was dressed warmly, even if he wet his pants, no one would notice.
"10 packs! 10 packs!" Christian blurted out as if trying to get rid of some trouble.
Eugene smirked and looked at Cathy.
Cathy seemed to have lost all her strength, sitting numbly, her eyes devoid of light, like a puppet.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Christian quietly got up. He wanted to escape, tightly closing the door, never wanting to hear anything related to Eugene again. However, Eugene's eyes suddenly sharpened, and he swiftly lunged forward.
Splat! Blood splattered.
The knife lodged in Christian's neck, and a large amount of blood gushed out. Eugene tried to pull out the knife but found it stuck tightly, impossible to remove.
Forget it, this kind of martial skill was something he never valued; he much preferred cold weapons. Stepping back a few paces, he avoided getting blood on himself.
Who wouldn't kill someone who stabbed them? Was he still afraid of killing? He wasn't afraid to kill in front of everyone!
Afterward, there was dead silence.
"He killed someone! Eugene killed someone!"
