Chapter 256 – Until You Say Sorry Novel

“Go to hell everyone!” Rose shouted coldly.

Kendrick turned his head to look at Rose and he saw that she had picked up the gasoline can. She splashed the contents to their side. Kendrick hurriedly protected Niamh and Jackson while retreating to the side.

All the gasoline that Rose had poured at them had splashed onto the door panel.

“Hahaha…” Rose laughed loudly as if she had gone mad. “Niamh, you b*tch. Let’s see how you’re gonna stay alive this time!”

A cold silver light shone in Kendrick’s eyes. He wanted to crush Rose to pieces.

At this moment, however, what he wanted most was to get Niamh and Jackson out of this small, dilapidated house.

Rose splashed the gasoline around madly while Jon was slumped to the side. His cowardly expression revealed that he was at a loss.

Kendrick took Niamh’s shoulders and led her to the window.

“Don’t worry about these two lunatics. Get out of here first.” His tone was determined, and he went to open the window.

It was probably because of the forming rust over the years but the locks on the windows were fastened tight.

Kendrick hardly hesitated. He stretched out his fist and smashed the glass.

The moment the glass broke, his right hand also split open with wounds of various sizes. Blood followed, quickly dying his hand red.

He did not seem to care, however, and continued to break down the uneven glass with his fist to ensure that Niamh would not get cut when she jumped out of the window.

“Niamh, you should go out first. I’ll hold Jack to you,” Kendrick said in a hurry, anxiety appearing on his usually calm and cold face.

The moment he said that, Rose suddenly took out a lighter.

After the fire started, Rose threw the lighter on the gasoline-soaked door.

The sparks followed the gasoline path, instantly turning into a big fire.

The whole house had suddenly turned into a sea of fire while the raging flames spread unscrupulously, emitting a pungent smell and a crackling, burning sound.

In this critical situation, Kendrick decisively took Jackson from Niamh’s arms and put him to his side. Then, he carried Niamh, who was still unreactive, toward the window sill.

“Get out!” he said decisively with unprecedented tension in his voice.

Niamh dallied no more and quickly jumped out of the window.

Kendrick then picked Jackson up. “Don’t be afraid, Jack. Mom will catch you outside.”

He consoled with a soft voice and carefully handed Jackson to Niamh.

Niamh quickly reached out to hug Jackson but had involuntarily glanced at Kendrick.

His worried eyes at the moment held no pretense.

Just then, Jackson suddenly shouted behind Kendrick, “Be careful, Daddy!”

Niamh only then noticed Rose’s fierce face appearing in a cloud of smoke. Rose was holding a fruit knife and had stabbed it toward Kendrick’s arm fiercely.

Kendrick was holding Jackson to hand him over to Niamh. He could not let go and could only take the stab.

Rose pulled out the fruit knife at once and fresh, red blood poured from Kendrick’s wound, soon dying his coat red.

He just frowned, still handing Jackson over to Niamh securely.

After Niamh grabbed Jackson, she pushed her hatred to the side and stretched out her hand to Kendrick. Her eyebrows and eyes were also unknowingly infected with anxiety. “Quick, take my hand. Come out!”

A smile suddenly appeared between Kendrick’s solemn eyebrows. He held Niamh’s hand that she had offered on her own, and at the same time, he felt warmer while his heart felt sweeter.

However, just as he moved, he was suddenly caught by Rose.

“Nobody should even think about leaving! I want you all buried with me!”

Outside the window, Jack, who saw Rose holding onto Kendrick, threw the apple in his hand at Rose angrily. “Bad guy! Let go of my dad!”

Jackson had thrown it accurately and the apple hit Rose in the face. She reflexively let go of her hand and touched her face with a painful squeal.

“Kendrick, hurry up!” Niamh held Kendrick’s hand firmly to remind him.

Seeing Rose coming back to continue to stop them, Niamh quickly said, “The password to the suitcase is six sixes, but it’s a pity that the 50 million will be burned into ashes by you!”

“What?!” When she heard this, Rose’s movements paused. Jon, who had been paralyzed on the ground, suddenly became energetic. He quickly ran to the suitcase that had still not been burned and entered six sixes.

With a click, the suitcase really opened!

However, seeing the contents of the suitcase, Jon was dumbfounded. “This… This is 50 million?!”

Rose looked at Jon’s stupefied expression, thinking he was taken aback by so much money, and hurried over.

However, when she saw the ‘money’ in the suitcase, she was dumbfounded!

There was no money in it. The stacks of paper were all plain A4 paper!

Rose gritted her teeth furiously. “Niamh Delgado! How dare you lie…”

Before she even finished her words, she looked up and saw that Kendrick had also left through the window safely. At this moment, the fire was raging. Jon and she were almost surrounded by the sea of fire!

Feeling the increasingly hot and scorching temperature approaching and the stifling smoke entangling them, Rose finally knew to be afraid.

When the two of them also wanted to climb out of the window, the flames had already rushed toward the window sill. The two of them were completely swallowed by the flames…

After Kendrick got out safely, Niamh called for an ambulance and the firefighters.

Although Rose and Jon were cruel and really deserved to die, she still felt that they should be left to the law. She never thought that they would really be buried in the flames.

When the firefighters arrived, the fire was still ablaze. When Jon and Rose were rescued, their clothes and hair had all been burned off.

Kendrick subconsciously stretched out his hand to block Niamh and Jackson’s sight to prevent them from witnessing this terrible scene.

The medical staff at the scene noticed Kendrick’s injured and bleeding hand and walked over quickly. “Sir, your hand is bleeding a lot. Please get in the car and head to the hospital for treatment.”

Kendrick smiled indifferently. “Thank you but there’s no need. My wife will send me to the hospital.”

He glanced at Niamh after naturally saying those words.

“Mom, let’s go to the hospital. Dad’s hand is bleeding a lot!” Jackson urged worriedly.

Niamh glanced at Kendrick’s injured hand and turned around while holding Jackson. “Hurry up.”

She seemed to say these two words to Kendrick before walking toward the car parked by the road.

Kendrick looked at Niamh’s hurried back and followed with a smile.

After getting in the car, Niamh threw a clean towel to Kendrick, then stepped on the accelerator.

She speeded several times unknowingly on the way, and finally, they reached the hospital.

After entering the hospital, she realized that Kendrick’s face looked unwell. His face was already quite pale, but now he looked even more so.

Apart from his palm that had been cut by the glass, Kendrick also had a deep knife wound on his right arm. A large amount of dried blood had covered almost the entire sleeve of his coat.

It had been dark out just now and Niamh did not realize that Kendrick was hurt so badly.

After he was done getting bandaged, the doctor gave some precautions and allowed him to leave.

Niamh had wanted to take Jackson back, but then Kendrick leaned on her weakly and put his hand on her shoulder. “Niamh, I’m a little tired. Can you send me back?”
