Betrayed, Yet Bound To The Billionaire by Grace Madeline

Chapter 421 Hannah stood there , her face ashen with fury , watching as the two bodies on the floor pressed tighter together .

She trembled in rage , pointing at them with a shaking hand .

Go , pull them apart , now ! No matter how shameless she was , she couldnt bear this scene any longer .

She was humiliated beyond belief .

Yes , maam , Atlas uid quickly , rushing forward ..

He gripped Henrys arm and yanked , trying to pull him away .

But to his horror , his force seemed to drag Sophia along with Henry , as if they were stuck together .

Henry let out a strained grunt .

Sophia screamed in pain , feeling as if her skin were being ripped apart .

Henry What the hell is going on ! Atlas asked , his confusion palpable .

At that moment , he realized something wasnt right .

No matter how hard he tried , it felt like Henry and Sophia were glued together .

It was as if they were stuck with super glue .

Are they stuck together ? Atlas gasped , his mind racing Henry , did you swap the lubricant for super glue ! He couldnt believe what he was saying this kind of scandalous news wasnt new to him .

There were cases where lovers , caught in the act by their spouses , intentionally used glue to trap themselves together , and it became a public embarrassment when they had to be rushed to the hospital .

And now , this bizarre situation was happening to Henry , someone Atlas had once looked up to : Staring at Henry , once the respected heir to the Bennett family , now reduced to this mess , Atlas felt an overwhelming desire to disappear .

Just as he spoke , everyones gaze shifted toward Edie .

You really think shes worthy of my attention ! And your Bennett family ? Do you really think Id get involved in your mess ? Edie sneered , her tone dripping with disdain .

She had no respect for the Bennett family .

To her , it was nothing more than a sinking ship .

The more she spoke , the more agitated Hannah became Biting down on her anger , she gritted her teeth and , despite the pain in her legs , stormed forward .

Without warning , she slapped Edie across the face with a loud smack , sending shockwaves through the room ..

Edies face stung as she stumbled back in disbelief , pressing her hand against her cheek .

You dare hit me ? Hannah , you actually dare hit me ? Hannah glared at her , her eyes filled with cold fury : Whats it to you ? Just because you once had some connection to me , you think you can seduce my son ! Her voice was venomous Now that youre my daughter in law , Ill hit you however I please .

You really think youre something special , trying to play games in front of me The two women locked eyes , their animosity palpable .

Fine .

Very fine .

Edie hissed .

I hope you a dont regret this , Hannah .

Her makeup , despite its thick layers , couldnt hide the weariness in her eyes .

The weight of the situation was beginning to sink in .

Hannahs laugh was cold and mocking .

Regres ? Do you think you can kill me ? Try it .

I dare you .

Edie fell silent , her gaze hardening as she stared at Hannah .

This is bad , I think the 502 glue mi ae mixed with some kind of acid its eating Kaway at Her ́at Henrys skin , he said , his voice steady but filled with concer The argument between the two women balled instantly .

All eyes turned toward Caspian in surprise .

Acid ? Atlas blurted , finally snapping to attention .

You mean , Henrys been set up ? If this were just a matter of an affair, things wouldnt have escalated so violently 1 / Chapter 421 Call a doctor , quick ! Caspian urged .

I they dont get their bodies cleaned , they could die .

His eyes glinted with something almost pleased .

Caspian had always been overshadowed by Henry , especially since Henry was the eldest son Caspian had been nothing but a runner up , even denied a chance to join the family business .

Now , if Henry were to fall , the Bennen familys affairs would inevitably fall into his hands .

He was confident he could do better than 1 everything Henry , who had already ruined his own name .

If Henry was gone , Caspian could rise and seize Doctor Where is the doctor ? Atlas called out , panic rising in his voice .

By pure chance , he spotted a doctor passing by and grabbed him , dragging him into the room .

Look at them ! he shouted , pointing at Henry and Sophia .

Their bodies are rotting away ! The doctor , adjusting his glasses , approached the couple with a serious expression .

After a quick inspection , he shook his head grimly .

Theyre stuck together .

Theyll need surgery to separate them , the doctor said , his tone as grim as his expression .

If we wait too long , the parts where their bodies are fused together will become more and more bonded .

The chemicals will continue to corrode their skin , causing widespread damage The doctor paused , looking at Henry and Sophia with concern .

Were especially worried about the genital area .

If it spreads there , they could lose everything.

The implication was clear , and the doctors reprimanding tone only deepened the awkwardness in the room .

Henry and Sophia could barely respond too drained to argue Sophia , pinned beneath him , couldnt stop the images flashing through her mind .

She was trapped in the bed with Henry , clothes in disarray .

The memory of him appearing there , disoriented and vulnerable , had stirred something in her a desire to take his hearts blood .

Why had she felt this intense craving to do so ? She had never used that method before , not in all her scheming .

But today , the urge had become overwhelming Henry … Why are you here ? she murmured , her teeth clenched .

Her body ached , but her gaze was unwavering , filled with an unsettling resolve .

Henry was stunned by the question .

He froze , realizing something was very wrong .

He was about to respond when the doctor grabbed his arm .

Quickly , lift him up ! Move them now ! the doctor ordered .

Before Henry could say another word , he was lifted onto a stretcher by the nurses .

As they nashed him out , the stretcher collided with Edie , who was just entering the room .

She winced , feeling a sharp pain , her sweat mingling with her makeup , smearing it as it dripped down her face .

She reached up to wipe it away , only to discover her makeup had turned into a greasy mess .

What the hell ? Edie muttered , staring at the foundation on her fingers in confusion .

Her cosmetics were the best money could buy , never prone to smudging .

Yet , the moment she broke a sweat , her face was turning into an oily mess .

She quickly pulled out a mirror , her heart sinking as she saw her reflection her face was smeared , her eyeliner a disaster .

Whats happening ? she whispered to herself , feeling a cold dread creeping up her spine .

Panicked , she quickly ran to the bathroom , slamming the door shut behind her .

Turning on the tap , she rinsed her hands , but when she looked down , the water was no longer clear it was bright red .

Whats going on ? Whats happening ? Edie muttered , her mind racing Her gaze shot up , locking onto the mirror .

But what she saw made her blood run cold .

There was no reflection .

The mirror was completely blank .

as though she wasnt even there .

Frantically , she reached out to touch the glass , her breath catching in her throat .

Wheres my reflection ? Why cant I see myself ? she gasped .

Horrified , she rubbed her eyes , turned , and tried to escape through the door .

But it wouldnt budge .

Edie kicked at the dour in desperation .

When her foot lifted , it felt as though something invisible had gripped it preventing her from pulling it luck Whos playing tricks Show yourself she screamed , grabbing her bag and hurling it forward , but there was nothing just empty air .

Turning back , she caught a glimpse of something two delicate hands , slowly emerging from the mirror .
