All too late for his love

The specialist wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.

Willow's pinky finger was already gone. How could she stand unscathed before Zayn?

Zayn's request was unreasonable.

The specialist dared not directly refute Zayn, so he cautiously asked, "Mr. Carter, is the young lady's severed finger still available? If it is, perhaps it can be reattached. It it's not...".

The specialist didn't say more, but he believed everyone understood the rest A person's hand was unlike a tiny sapling; breaking a branch might allow it to grow back. If a finger was gone, even if a great sorcerer came, it could only result in a lifetime disability.

"Boss, where is Ms. Sanford's severed finger? Is it in Bordello? I'll head over there right now to retrieve the severed finger." Liam's forehead was als covered in cold sweat as he spoke.

As Zayn's assistant, Liam knew about Zayn's hidden marriage with Willow. He had been with Zayn since his return from studying abroad and lanew all too well about their love-hate relationship.

He knew Zayn had constantly tormented Willow in various ways, but he hadn't expected Zayn to chop off her finger this time.

Liam discreetly stole a glance at Zayn.

Previously, he thought they were deeply involved in a twisted relationship, loving and hating each other. But now, he couldn't believe that Zayn would physically harm someone.

He was simply going too far Liam held onto his phone weakly, feeling immensely conflicted. Should he report to the members of the Carter family? But when he met Zayn's fierce and sinister gaze, he put his phone down.

"No need to go to Bordello," Zayn finally spoke, causing Liam to shudder again.

Could it be that Zayn was now planning to cover up the evidence after chopping off someone's finger?

This was truly going too far.

Liam was afraid of Zayn, but he was even more afraid of causing a fatal incident. He didn't know how to explain this to the members of the Carter family. With cold sweat dripping down his forehead, he reminded, "Boss, I understand that you hate Ms. Sanford, but chopping off her finger is really twisted. It you continue like this, your mental health will be affected, and..."

Zayn gave Liam a sharp glance, and he quickly shut his mouth. But in his mind, he silently added, "You're going too far."

Zayn was currently worried about Willow's injuries, and he couldn't be bothered to explain to Liam that he wasn't the one who injured her.

The specialist had re-stitched Willow's wound and assured him that it wouldn't reopen if she applied the provided medicine on time, and there would be no more inflammation The specialist then explained that too much time had passed since Willow's finger was severed, so even if they found the finger, the surgery wouldn't be successful.

But Zayn still wanted to give it a try. He knew Willow cared about her appearance the most. How could a girl who loved beauty so much live with a lifelong disability?

Who knows how much she might be secretly crying under the covers?

Willow's current physical condition was terrible. Every time she fell m unconscious, she felt as if she might never wake up again.

This time, she almost exhausted all her willpower just to open her eyes in the evening.

As she opened her eyes, Zayn's magnified face came into view. He tightly gripped her wrist, his bloodshot eyes showing even more prominent veins.

"Willow, where's your severed finger?"

The severed finger...

"It was fed to the dogs, Willow spoke expressionlessly.

Zayn's expression contorted suddenly, showing evident pain. He tightened his grip by Willow's wrist asked, "Willow, who chopped off your finger?"
