Elizabeth was so weak that she would have fallen if he had not held her so tightly in his arms.
The word "darling" struck her as strange.
Although Marvin Bennett had always called her "darling" before she was eighteen.
In addition to the brother-sister intimacy, there was a special tender affection in it.
It was so long since Elizabeth had heard him call her that. At the moment, he seemed to her nothing but spooky.
“Well, Marvin Bennett, you finally admitted it!Henry is in this state because of you. You're so scary! He is your father, after all. How could you… how could you be so cruel?|”
Such speculation had been in her mind for a long time, but she did not dare to say it, and she could not.
She looked at Marvin's beautiful but cruel face and felt a shudder.
Marvin Bennett only touched her face and said with a faint smile, “All the people in Pinkshire know that my father became like this because of Aileen Bennett. Will anyone believe you when you say without proof that I did this?”
Elizabeth could not help staring at Marvin Bennett when she saw Henry with his nose and mouth askew and his mouth drooling. “Whether they believe it or not, you know what you did. Won't you feel guilty? He loves you so much. You're his only son!”
There was not a trace of shame on his face. He only held her face and played with it fondly, then said lightly, “Don't waste your time defending Aileen Bennett. She had always been ruthless and secretly used drugs to harden my father's brain vessels. That's what the doctors had known for a long time."
He paused for a moment and smiled in a wicked way. His hand was in her chest, and he was rubbing it hard, and his eyes were fixed on Henry Bennett, “Dad, Elizabeth is the one you're worried about most. You always said she was young and told me not to take it out on her because of what happened to the older generation. So I brought her here to see you today. Look how well I've raised her. In case you didn't know, not only did she look like Aileen, but her vagina was as tight as she was. How amazing heredity is!”
“Are you out of your mind? Shut up!” Elizabeth, whose face was as red as a tomato, pushed and shoved him furiously.
He must have been crazy to say that in front of Henry...
Had Henry Bennett been in his right mind to learn that he had slept with his stepsister, he would have suffered another cerebral hemorrhage.
Elizabeth could not stop him, and she only wanted to escape from the door.
Marvin Bennett grabbed her by the back of the neck and pinned her down in front of the wheelchair, then he said steadily, “Darling, remember what Henry is like now. If you don't want to be like him, be good, and have a child for me.”
…
From then on, Elizabeth was closely followed by Marvin Bennett's bodyguards, mostly to keep her from escaping and not to take any contraceptive pills.
