Love Until Death Do Us Part ( Athena Dempsey )
Chapter 40

Chapter 40 

Newman couldn’t believe his eyes the first time he saw it – a kid so full of beans and bouncing off the walls. 

Kevin was clearly a tough cookie; when he threw punches, he didn’t show any mercy! He was specially trained, using the finesse of soft–overcoming–hard techniques. Despite his small stature, he delivered a kick right into Wendy’s kneecap, knocking her off balance. Her knee hit the ground with a thud! The face mask, diluted by the foot bath water, slid off her face. 

Wendy’s brother Larry yelled, “Who the heck does this kid belong to? Who are you? What are you doing here?” 

“I came here to kick some butt!” Kevin growled, picking up a wooden foot basin and smashing it down on Larry’s noggin. 

“Help! Somebody help!” Wendy’s panicked cries for help filled the air as she scrambled on her knees, fumbling for her phone. 

Quick as a flash, Kevin dashed over and slid, sending Wendy’s phone flying even further away. Just then, Wendy grabbed hold of Kevin’s head, attempting to yank the Spider–Man mask off his face. 

“Let’s see whose little brat you are – you’re toast!” Wendy’s chubby face was shaking with 

rage. 

“Let go! Let me go!” Kevin struggled as the Spider–Man mask slid up, revealing his delicate 

chin. 

From the sidelines, Newman plucked a grape from the fridge and with a flick of his finger, the grape hit Wendy’s eye like a stone. 

“Ouch!” Wendy covered her eye, which was now tearing up uncontrollably. 

With a swift pull, Kevin adjusted the mask on his face, then turned around and unleashed a flurry of shadowy cat punches on Wendy, knocking her down. He then blew on his tiny fists fiercely. Seeing Wendy’s swollen face, Kent couldn’t be more pleased with himself. 

The corners of Newman’s mouth twitched as he thought Kevin had avenged Athena, and he must’ve felt good. As he looked around, Newman spotted the spa staff rushing over. 

“Hey, squirt, time to make a run for it.” 

Kevin trotted over to Newman, “If I’m a squirt, then you’re an old fart!” 

“What am I supposed to call you, then?” 

Puffing out his little chest, Kevin demanded, “Call me Boss!” 

Beneath his sunglasses, a teasing cold glint passed through Newman’s eyes. He was tempted 

to knock some sense into the kid’s head.

“Hey, Devil, are you sweating buckets? Why’s your face all sweaty?” Kevin looked up at Newman’s face. 

Newman felt weird also, like he had taken Scorpion. The blood of his whole body was boiling in an instant, and his breathe seemed to be heated as well; a fine sheen of sweat covered his 

chiseled face. 

It was so hot. Could the spa really be this hot? 

Larry, nursing his swollen head, directed the spa security, “Catch them!” 

Annoyed by Kevin’s short legs slowing them down, Newman hoisted the kid up and bolted towards another exit. His breath was hot, his veins felt like they were about to burst. 

“Mr. Bradshaw, hide here for a bit!” Suddenly, a woman called out to him. 

Newman had seen this woman before but hadn’t bothered to remember her name. It was odd to see Anna here, at this moment. 

With a stern face, Newman holding Kevin, stepped into a private room. Anna closed and locked the door behind them, her back to him. 

Held up by Newman, Kevin twisted his head, his brows furrowing under the Spider–Man mask. 

“Mr. Bradshaw, what did you do? Why are the spa’s security after you?” Anna’s voice was full of confusion, her back still to him, her lips curling up in the shadows. The situation played right into her hands. 

Soon, Newman would lose control over his body. Alone with her in the room, he would pounce like a wild beast, and she would be powerless, a mere tool for his release. Suppressing a triumphant smile, Anna turned to see Newman still holding the kid. 

Anna was stunned. Where the heck did this kid come from?! 

“Newman, is this child your son?” Anna’s voice turned weird. 

“How come you’re here?” Newman asked coldly, his sunglasses hiding his intense emotions. 

Innocently, Anna replied. “I was here for a massage. When I saw you being chased, I thought I’d help you hide.” 

Anna glanced at the kid in Newman’s grasp, resentment seeping into her eyes. Now, she couldn’t just throw the kid out; she had to let him watch her with Newman. 

Anna wore a thin bathrobe with nothing underneath, loosely tied – just a slight tug from Newman. 

“Mr. Bradshaw, you don’t look so well. Can I take your pulse for you?” 

Anna tried to approach him, her body scented with an arousing potion. 

“Back off, freak!” Kevin shouted, and Anna’s face turned as black as the bottom of a pot! 

Holding back the urge to slap the kid, she cooed softly. “Mr. Payne Bradshaw, I’m a doctor. I

can help your dad.” 

“I saw you in the hallway earlier,” Newman said icily, and Anna was taken aback. 

His gaze fell on her shoulder bag, which lay on the table. He had been careless, not paying attention to what she was doing. He only glimpsed her taking something out of her bag. 

Anna hadn’t been wearing this outfit before. She had changed, waiting for Newman in the private room. 

Newman set Kevin down and methodically began to undo his cufflinks. 

“You’re Jerry’s apprentice, tell me why, even though I haven’t taken Scorpion, my body is burning up like this?” 

Anna moved closer to him step by step, “Mr. Bradshaw, you look like you’ve been drugged up.” 

The man’s lips curled into a smile, but it was a chilling, razor–thin grin that gave people the creeps! 

“It was you who drugged me.” 

Anna’s breath hitched, and her brain froze for a few seconds. 

No way! How could Newman have figured out so quickly that it was she who had drugged him?! “Newman, I didn’t.” 

Before Anna could finish, the man kicked her squarely in the chest, sending her flying like a kite with its string cut! She screamed as her back slammed into the corner of the table, and her shoulder bag fell to the floor. 

From inside the bag came the sound of something shattering, and as the flap opened, a brown liquid oozed out. 

A rich aroma filled the air! Newman’s brows furrowed tight.
