CROSSING THE BORDER novel Chapter 107

Chapter 107

The glass scattered, and the sharp shard grazed Maximus’s skin.

Silence ensued when the clattering sound ended, for a moment, but then Maximus simply told her not to get out of the bed.

“Stay there. I will get you another glass.” Maximus’s expression didn’t even change when he poured another glass of water and went to give it to Rania.

But, she grabbed it and hurled it across the room. This time the glass hit the wall and shattered. She glared at Maximus viciously, and he could only see her hatred.

She had every right to hate him, but still… Maximus wished something different.

“You don’t want me to give you water? It’s okay, Karin is on the way here. I will stay until she is here.” Maximus sat on the edge of the bed. He didn’t try to touch Rania, because he knew she wouldn’t like that, even though he really wanted to wrap her in his arms.

And when Rania pushed herself into a sitting position, and then attacked him by clawing his face, Maximus let her.

Blood oozed out from the wound, yet the king said nothing, he simply stared at her gently. “If hurting me can ease your pain, do it. Do whatever you want with me, Rania. Even if you give me poison, I will gladly drink it.”

He knew that he was hopeless. He couldn’t bring himself to hurt her. When he learned she had betrayed him by giving him poison, he had punished her.

However, it felt like he punished himself more.

And with the death of their unborn child, Maximus knew it was a regret that was worse than anything else

that he had ever done.

This time Rania wrapped her fingers around his neck, she wanted to strangle him, and Maximus was sitting there, accepting his fate.

Unfortunately for Rania, she lacked of strength. Her energy had been depleted after she was in unconscious state for so long.

Therefore, no matter how hard she was trying to strangle him, she couldn’t do it.

And right in that time, Karin walked into the room, she gasped in shock and immediately pulled Rania away from the king.

“My king, are you alright?” Karin asked worriedly.

“Check on her, don’t let her to get out of the bed before someone clean up this mess,” Maximus said calmly, he wiped the blood from his face, as his wound had healed and then got up.

He wanted her to wake up, but he also knew that Rania might not want to see him when she finally regained her consciousness.

Therefore, her strong reaction was expected.

However, when Maximus stood up and was about to leave, Rania suddenly moved forward to yank him back. She had not yet done. She wanted to kill him.

Rania was no longer care whether she would be punished for what she was doing or not, because she wanted Maximus to die.

She wanted him to die so badly, just like how he had killed their unborn child.
