A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 165 True Sadist

He reached out his long arms and pulled her close to himself.

Sherry groaned, her heart was racing as she was lying in his broad and strong chest. She felt the sweetness in her heart.

Then, he pulled her chin up.

Their eyes met and they looked at each other...

Then he lowered his head, and Sherry came forward to him, then they had a gentle, lingering and delicate kiss.

...

Cohen and Ashley were in the villa on top of West Hill.

Ashley was putting on her make-up when Cohen grabbed her and brought her there.

"What do you want from me?" Ashley's eyes were filled with anxiety, "It's my engagement party tonight, if you want money, you can ask my father, or why don't I tell him and he will bring you some right now?"

Cohen shook his head, "I don't want money!"

"Then what do you want?"

"I want you not to marry Leon!"

"Why?"

"Because he doesn't love you!" Cohen pulled a grimace, "He never did, if I am right, then you are the one that attacked him first, he has no choice but to marry you right?"

"How did you know?" Ashley's eyes widened, "You are talking bullshit, Leon likes me! He likes me!"

Towards the end of the sentence, Ashley's voice turned down, she didn't have the confidence anymore, because she never heard Leon say that he loved her, she realized that she was always the confronting end.

"Ashley, do you know that your step mother has a daughter?" Cohen said in a lowered voice, his eyes were resting on her with a sharp expression, as if he wanted to see through her, to see if she was as cruel as Sierra and Payne.

Ashley looked at his cold face that carried a deeply complicated look, she looked surprised, "What are you talking about? Sierra has a daughter? That's not possible, why would she not tell me if this is true?"

"Is she nice to you?" Cohen asked.

"She really loves me, why?"

Cohen smirked, "That woman really is strange, she never cared about her own child, but she takes care of someone else's child like her own."

"I don't know what you are talking about, let me go!" Ashley was getting anxious, she could see the sky turning dark outside, it took her a lot of work for Leon to agree to this engagement, what would she do if she lost this chance?

Cohen's expression didn't change, it was still the cold and serious face, his eyes were fixed on Ashley's anxious expression, and his voice was just as cold, "You could have left, but now you can't anymore, nobody will simply leave after hurting my daughter. If you want to blame someone, then it should be your mother and father, nobody asked them to annoy my child. You will have to stay here now! And after Leon has married someone else, I will still keep you another decade!"

"Ah!" Ashley's face was now pale, and her eyes reddened, "You can't do that, what have I done wrong? What did we do to anger you? What did my dad and Sierra do? I want to marry Leon, I love him, you can't do this to me, I want to marry him!"

"Marry? Don't even think about it!" Cohen laughed.

"Why, I don't care, let go of me, I am a good kid, why are you doing this? I have done nothing to offend you!"

"Why are you screaming? If I hear you scream one more time I will sell you to south east Asia and you can work as a whore there!" Cohen said coldly, his expression was still as cold and freezing, spreading fear.

Ashley started crying, she looked at him and couldn't believe his words, she could feel herself being trapped under a dome, she was so scared that she didn't even dare to speak again.

At that time, his phone rang, it was Susan calling, his cold face seemed to soften a little, and there was a gentle touch to it.

Then, he told his assistant to keep an eye on Ashley as he went outside to take the call.

Susan was looking for Cohen everywhere, but couldn't find him, she she called, "Where are you?"

"What do you need? I am very busy!" Cohen's words were strict.

"I am at home, can you please come back and we can talk?" She said, not knowing that the word "home" gave Cohen a strange feeling.

"What do you want to talk about?" Cohen knitted his brows.

"It won't work if you kidnap Ashley, I won't marry Leon, because I don't love him anymore, I just want to live a calm and quiet life, please don't try to interfere in my life anymore."

"I... how do you know that I kidnapped Ashley?"

"Cohen, come home, I want to talk to you!" She kept saying, her voice was suddenly very gentle.

He paused, it was surprising to him, she never talked to him in that manner before, her tone made him immerse in it, and he said, "Okay, I will be right back!"

"Let Ashley go first!" Susan said.

"No!"

"Do it for Sherry, you can't cause more hate, you don't know how sad she is today, let Ashley go so that they can just live their lives, same as us!" Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

"Us?" He was perplexed.

"Let her go!"

When Cohen got back home it was already one hour later.

Susan was waiting for him in the living room, she had mixed emotions as she thought about those five years with Cohen, she noticed that there were a lot of moving moments.

He was very dominant, but he was also very gentle, he remembered her birthday, he bought uncountable gifts for her, but she never really cared for it.

If he hadn't kidnapped Ashley today and acted as if he could solve everything, she might never have seen all that.

The sound of the door made her stiffen up.

Cohen wasn't prepared that he would ever see her again, and he had confused emotions, he stood at the door and didn't speak.

When Susan heard the noises behind her, she slowly turned around, and saw a long figure standing at the door, staring at her quietly.

...

She looked at him, as if she suddenly got to know him, but also as if they had been lifelong friends, suddenly her eyes filled up with tears.

He saw her tear up, and was silent.

"Why do you want me to marry Leon?" She said slowly. She felt wronged, because he never asked her before he made decisions for her, she didn't like him being so dominant, so controlling, but today, she was moved by what he did.

"Don't you like him?" He didn't answer, instead he asked her back.

His answer was so cruel, but she looked at this horrible man standing in front of her, she was touched! The more she would feel that, it might change, it might get more complicated, but maybe it would get easier.

Her tears rolled down the cheeks, Cohen looked at this fragile woman, her tears kept flowing down, and he got worried, "Why are you crying?"

Susan turned around, Cohen looked at her back, and frowned.

"Turn to me, look at me!" Cohen suddenly commanded.

Susan's little body trembled, she didn't want to turn.

"Susan!" Cohen couldn't hold back his anger anymore, he walked towards her and hugged her tiny waist from behind, he held her close in his arms, "Did you ask me to come to watch you cry?"

...

"Who told you to be so dominant, who told you to kidnap her, and who told you to make me look bad in front of so many people?" So many people were staring at her while Leon proposed to her, she felt wronged just thinking about it, "Why are you so overly confident? Why do you have to decide about everything?"

Susan struggled in his arms, her hair was messy under his gentle stroking, her black hair was falling onto his face and chest like a waterfall.

Cohen looked at Susan's expression, and couldn't help but to turn her around, to hold her gently, his gestures were gentle and soft, afraid that Susan might feel uncomfortable.

"Don't cry..." Cohen tried to comfort her.

Susan didn't mind him, she was crying quietly, she felt so hurt, nobody could understand the feeling in her heart, she felt wronged, mixed with a little moved feeling.

Cohen quietly lift up a hand to wipe off the tears on her face, then he said in a lowered voice, "Don't cry, if you don't like me doing this, then tell me what would you like me to do? As long as you are happy, you can do whatever you want, I owe you, I want to give you happiness!"

Susan's voice was hoarse as she said, "That's none of your business..."

Cohen raised his brow, "How come, it is my obligation to make you happy..."

When she heard that, it suddenly activated the hate and anger in her heart, she stared at him silently, and said, "What obligations do you have? If it wasn't for you, I would be really happy right now, I would have a husband and children by now, but because of you, I lost Leon. I lost him and he will never come back!"

"So what do you want to do?" Cohen asked.

"I want you to let Ashley go, let her marry Leon, let them be happy!" She said.

"And what about you?" He asked.

"I have your child, and you want me to marry someone else? Are you a man?" She yelled at him.

Cohen's mouth formed into a bitter smile, "If I am not a man, how could I get you pregnant?"

"Shut up!" She said ashamed, "Are you going to let her go?"

"No rush, let's wait for Sherry to come back, she can decide!"

"Can you promise not to hurt her?"

"Don't worry, I am already gentle enough, I won't be violent for no reason." He said.

She frowned and wiped her tears.

He helped her, "Why are you crying, who angered you?"

"Is there anyone else apart from you? Who except for you would make me cry so many times?"

When he heard that, he hugged her close, she struggled but he didn't let go of her, slowly, she rolled up in his arms, hugging him back softly.

Cohen sighed satisfied, he held her so close as if he was trying to press her into his chest.

"What do you want me to do to stop crying?"

She was silent, didn't speak.

"Will you be happy not to marry him? Will you regret it?" Cohen asked softly, he hugged her even tighter, "If you won't regret it, then stay with me..."

He didn't notice that his handsome face showed a hint of deep love.

...

At the Jones family.

From the bedroom came the screams of a woman, mixed with the noises of a beating whip.

"Bitch, bitch, bitch..." A man yelled why he was whipping her continuously.

"Ah, please stop, please stop!" The woman begged, the servants downstairs were all shaking, nobody dared to go upstairs.

"Master, please, it hurts..."

The person that was screaming for help was Sierra, she was lying on the big bed, it was so big that four could fit in there, it had bronze pillars with figures on them, the bed sheet was black with red roses on it, it looked coquettish.

Her limbs were held by metal rings, which were tied to chains that were knotted on the four pillars. She was lying on the bed, looking like a star.

Payne had a belt in his hand to whip Sierra's butt with, "You bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch, I am going to kill you! I will kill you! Who told you to be skittish? Who told you to cheat? Who told you to get other men?"

"Master please I am begging you, it's my fault, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have had a child with someone else, I shouldn't have married other men, Master, I know my mistake now, please let us find a way to save Ashley, don't beat me, Ashley is still in the hands of others!"

"If anything happens to my daughter, I will kill you bitch!" Payne was tired from the beating and finally threw away the belt.

He untied the chains, and then held her again, she was lying on the bed in the position of a star, her butt was paining her and she frowned, but she didn't dare to make a sound.

"Feels good?" Payne's expression suddenly changed, he suddenly sounded gentle.

Sierra's body trembled, and nodded quickly, "Very good, thank you for loving me!"

...

Sherry and William were holding hands as they went back to the Group house while Cohen and Susan were having their breakfast.

When they entered they saw that scene.

"Are you mad?" Cohen looked at Susan's dim face and suddenly laughed, he took her hand across the table, "It's just a glass of milk, just drink it!"

"No!" Susan said and she looked at Cohen expressionless, while she pulled her hand back.

"You really are mad?" He shook his head and laughed, Cohen again took her hand, and his deep and charming voice was heard again, "Alright, alright, let's not act up, milk is good for the baby."

"I thought you don't want the baby, it is mine!" Susan looked up and pulled her hand back again, then she kept drinking her porridge, she liked that dish, "I want to move out!"

"No ways!" Cohen's voice was dominant again.

William and Sherry saw that and looked at each other, then smiled.

William was in a good spirit that day, as soon as the two of them walked in, Cohen and Susan turned quiet, "Dad, Susan, good morning!"

Sherry's face blushed, but when she saw Cohen and Susan get along with each other, she suddenly felt that they looked quite happy, this must be ordinary life!
