Chapter 205 Nearly Choked to Death
As Monica began to suffocate, she instinctively struggled and resisted by grabbing Stanley’s arm. However, the
man’s raw power kept forcing her back. Soon, Stanley walked through the door and strengthened his grip around
her throat, forcing her to retreat until her back was against the wall.

teeth. “To die… At your hands… Is an honor…”
“I don’t care how noble you make yourself seem. I’d still strangle you to death anyway!” Stanley tightened the grip
around Monica’s throat, his eyes filled with rage and wrath.
Monica’s face was turning red as her veins popped. “Kill me. This is my final way of showing you how much I love
you.”
“Tell me where she is now.” Stanley stared at Monica with his piercing gaze. “This is your only chance!”

preoccupied manner. Deep down, she was worried about her son’s injury, but instead of calling him, she dialed
another number. “Max, could you please keep Stanley company tonight?”
“Miss Fox, why did Ms. Paisley leave?” Max asked. “Are you aware of it?”

Stanley’s right hand. Thus, he picked up his first-aid kit and followed right behind Stanley until he heard the door
being shut and locked.

“Is Daddy back?”
“Why did he close the door so forcefully? Is he mad or something?” The kids’ voices sounded from behind Gael.
When Pamela saw the first-aid kit in Gael’s hand, she asked, “Mr. Gael, is Daddy hurt?”
