Cealan's large hand moved slightly, and the knife in his hand slowly fell onto Jayla's neck, with that look, obviously wanting to cut her neck.
The hand of Cealan, like the skin of his face, was sickly pale. Under the moonlight, such a miserable white hand, holding a cold glittering knife in his hand, against the neck of others, was unspeakably creepy.
Jayla is a clever little girl, but when she faces the fierce and ruthless Cealan, she still panics from the bottom of her heart.
She didn't even dare to breathe for fear that in the next moment he would make her bleed.
Cealan really wanted to kill Jayla so that Freya would pay for her deception of him and make her suffer for the rest of her life.
But looking at Jayla's face, which looked just like Freya's when she was a child, he couldn't suppress the knife in his hand.
"Sir, can you not cut my neck with a knife?" Jayla also sensed Cealan's hesitation, she suppressed the fear in her heart and spoke, "Sir, | don't know what's going on between you and my Mommy, but I'm just a little kid who doesn't know anything, so don't involve us kids in your adult affairs, okay?" With that, Jayla cried out pitifully.
Jayla was originally born cute, and when she cried, her big eyes blinked, her long eyelashes trembled, and she was unspeakably heart-wrenching.

Seeing that, Cealan could not restrain himself from frowning.
When Stahler cried as a child, she had this pitiful look that made him, unable to resist, want to bring the best in the world to her, just to make her smile.
He wanted to grow old with Stahler, and he wanted to devote his life to her in exchange for her peace and happiness.
But the Stahler he cherished so much had deceived him tand again, betrayed him, and even, mercilessly, put him to death.
The moment he fell into the sea, he reached out his hand to her, but she did not take it.
She only hoped that he had fallen into hell and would never return! The red waves in Cealan's eyes surged, and for a moment, the murderous aura in his body could not be suppressed.
So what if he was devoted to Stahler? In the end, all his love was in vain! Why should he be merciful to her, if she has shown him no mercy! Anyway, he was originally a demon in her heart! "Damn you!" Even with a human mask on his face, the cruelty on Cealan's face was still gut-wrenching.
"Doesn't Stahler wantto die? She wantsto die! Then | will destroy everyone she cares about. | want to see if she is more ruthless or if | am more ruthless!" Saying that, Cealan no longer had half a moment's hesitation, and with the knife in his hand, he cut fiercely at Jayla's neck.
"Nol" Leo limped over, "Don't hurt her! You kill me! Let her go!" Hearing Leo's voice, Cealan's hand couldn't help but give a lurch, he didn't manage to cut Jayla's neck, but he did make a shallow blood mark on her neck.
Jayla's skin is pale, and this tiny bloodstain, left on her neck, still looks frightening.
Leo's clear, moist eyes could not be restrained from locking as he rushed forward anxiously, shielding Jayla, "I don't know why you want to hurt her, but she's just a little girl who doesn't know anything, don't hurt her! If you have anything to do, cat me!" Cealan looked at Leo steadily, although he had a disability on his leg, he still could not hide the splendour of his body.
He had never been a soft-hearted person. Just now, the movement of his hands would pause, not because he didn't want to retaliate against Freya anymore, but just that, seeing this little boy's defense of Jayla, he couldn't help but remember, once upon a time, his own defense of Stahler.
It was looking at this little boy, who looked like the little Cealan that he once was, that Cealan was lost in thought for a moment.
"Leo, leavealone! You go! He'll kill you!" Jayla didn't expect Leo to suddenly rush over, and she couldn't help but feel anxious.
She had followed Fabian and the others to the Free State and knew how ruthless Cealan was. The four so powerful bodyguards she had brought with her were no match for him, and Leo was even more unlikely to be a match for him.
She was quite afraid of dying, she wanted to stay with daddy Mommy, brother and Alistair forever, she also wanted to be friends with Leo, so she wanted to live a good life.
But if she was destined to die, she did not want to involve innocent people.

Especially the one she identifies as her best friend, Leo.
"Jayla, hurry up and go!" Leo gave Jayla a strong push, signalling for her to run quickly.
Jayla did not run because she knew in her heart that with Cealan's ability, she would not be able to run away even if she did.
"Leo, you really need to leavealone! He's not a good person! He can really kill people!" Jayla grabbed Leo hard, trying to pull him away, but he stubbornly shielded himself in front of her, not willing to move out of the way.
Looking at such a Leo, Jayla suddenly wanted to cry, but inexplicably, she wanted to laugh again.
It turned out that Leo didn't really hate her.
Perhaps he also thought of her as a very good friend, but was just too twisted to admit it.
Jayla smiled and wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes, "Leo, do you also consideras a friend?" Without waiting for Leo to speak, Jayla spoke again, "Leo, | know, you treatas a friend. Since we are friends, of course | can't drag you down! You should go home, your mother still needs you to take care of her." "Heh!" With a cold laugh, Cealan grabbed Jayla's shoulders and lifted her up.
"Jayla, you are, however, much more righteous than that heartless mother of yours! But no matter how much you're righteous, you're not going to end well! Don't blme, just blit on your heartless mother!" "| forbid you to speak ill of my Mommy!" Jayla was terrified of Cealan, but she forbade him to say anything about her favourite Mommy, her little cheeks puffed out in anger, "My Mommy is the best Mommy in the world!" "Yes, your Mommy is the best Mommy and the best wife in the world, but to me, she is the cruelest and most heartless person in the world! So, she must pay the price!" Cealan slowly twirled the knife in his hand, "Jayla, | was shot eighteen times in my body when | fell into the sea." "There were two shots close to the heart, and if they had been one point off, | would have died! Stahler owes me, she owes me! | don't have a gun withtoday, but you have to suffer from this knife!" "If someone owes me, | will get it back a thousand times over! Jayla, how many times do you think | should stab you?"
