Chapter 19
Elodie refused to believe his words.
Make up?
Those hurts have long been etched into the bone and blood, how can they be compensated for?
She turned and entered the room, slamming the door shut behind her. It wasn’t until Sebastian knocked on the door and called her to come eat that she finally came out.
She pushed the door open, and Sophia was taken aback.
Sebastian was wearing an apron, with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows, revealing his well–defined forearms. Several dishes were placed on the dining table, all of them colorful and fragrant, all of which she liked.
“What did you do? she raised an eyebrow.”
“Um, he whispered, “didn’t want to be disturbed by anyone.
Elodie sneered, “For Sophia’s cooking skills?”
Sebastian’s fingers stiffened, a look of pain crossing his eyes. “Lodie, please don’t mention her again, okay?”
She insisted on bringing it up.
At the dining table, she kept stabbing him with one remark after another.

“Sophia used to love sweet things, right? Did you used to make them for her often?”
“Did you ever think about risking your life when you ran to the cliff to pick flowers for her?”
“Did she cry when she saw you had tattooed her name on your heart?”
***
Every sentence cut into Sebastian’s heart like a knife.
He went from the initial pain to later silence, and finally just listened numbly, without even the strength to argue.
Elodie felt contented.
After finishing her meal, she got up to go back to her room, but Sebastian suddenly called out to her.
“Lodie.”
He handed over a whip.
Elodie was stunned. “What do you mean?”
“Ninety–nine lashes, his voice was hoarse, “I will give them back to you.”
She stared at him and sneered, “Do you think this can make up for it?”
“Not to make up for it, he looked up, his eyes darkening, “It’s what I owe you.
He took out a document from his pocket and handed it to her: “I have already written the farewell letter. Even if you kill me, the Malfoy

family will not trouble you.”
“The Malfoy family left all their property to you.”
Elodie’s fingertips trembled slightly, then she sneered, “Do you think I’m a little girl? Easily fooled by your sweet talk?”
Sebastian looked at her, his voice so soft it was almost inaudible: “I was telling the truth.”
Before the words had even finished falling-
“Bang!”
A whip was fiercely whipped on his back!
Sebastian grunted, his back straightened, but he gritted his teeth and remained silent.
Elodie showed no mercy.
The second whip, the third whip…
The sound of the whip cracking in the quiet apartment was particularly harsh, and the sound of the skin splitting, and flesh tearing filled the air with the smell of blood.
Sebastian always stood, his back straight, not even flinching.
Until the ninety–ninth whip fell, his back was already a bloody mess, with blood dripping down from the hem of his clothes onto the floor, a horrifying sight.
He finally stumbled for a moment, but still managed to stand firm, reaching out to grab Elodie’s hand.

Elodic looked at him coldly and said, “What? Regretting it now? Want to hit back?”
Sebastian shook his head and gently rubbed her wrist with his fingertips, his voice weak: “Does your hand hurt?”
Elodie froze.
Immediately, she jerked her hand back and sneered, “Sebastian, are you cheap or not?”
He tugged at the corner of his mouth, his face pale as he smiled and said, “As long as you’re happy, I’m fine with whatever you say.”
His gentleness made her unable to look away.
Elodie turned to leave, but was called back by him again.
“There was one more thing.”
He handed her a knife.
Elodie frowned, “What do you want to do now?”
Sebastian raised his hand and tore open the shirt that had long been
soaked in blood, revealing the glaring tattoo on his chest.
Sophia.
“I gouged it out, he said hoarsely.”
Elodie sneered, “What, don’t want to keep her name now?”
Before the words had even finished,
Sebastian suddenly grabbed her hand and forcefully plunged the tip of the knife into his own chest!

“Puff!”
Fresh blood gushed out in an instant!
Elodie’s pupils suddenly contracted, and she instinctively tried to pull her hand away, but he held it tightly.
“Don’t move… He gritted his teeth in pain, his forehead veins bulging, but he still persevered, holding her hand as he slowly peeled away that piece of flesh.”
Fresh blood flowed down his chest, staining his pants and also staining her hands.

Elodie’s fingertips trembled, her breath almost stagnant.
Sebastian, however, seemed to feel no pain at all. After cleaning it up, he held her hand and carved a new name into her heart, one cut at a
time.
Lodie.
When the final blow fell, he could no longer stand steadily, but he still forced himself to look at her, a smile tugging at the corner of his lips.
“Lodie… his voice was as soft as a sigh, “I love you.“”
After saying that, he completely passed out and fell heavily to the ground.
Blood spread beneath him, like a blooming rose.
Elodie stood still, and the knife in her hand fell to the ground with a clang.
She looked at the floor covered in blood and suddenly felt…
