Chapter 22: Chapter 22: Not Under Anyone's Control
"It hurts." She couldn't help but cry out in pain.
"If you know it hurts, then be good." He said.

When the clock struck 2 a.m., Kyle Kinston glanced down at Mabel Quinn, who had already dozed off on the sofa.
This woman, who was clearly afraid of him, could actually fall asleep so unguardedly by his side.
His fated one turned out to be such a woman, something he perhaps never expected before. Holding her hand, he could distinctly feel her warmth.
Just touching the fated one felt like this; as long as he made this simple contact, the pain that would otherwise completely devour his sanity would disappear.
"Kyle, listen, no matter how powerful or magnificent the Kinston Family members are, even if they can control everyone in the world, in the end, they are still controlled by one person, and that person is your fated one." His father's voice echoed in his ears.
At that time, his father was almost like a madman. Perhaps it should be said, ever since his mother died, his father lived like a madman.
"I won't be controlled by anyone." That was his answer back then.
"Really? Hahaha... that's because you haven't met your fated one yet. Once you do, you won't say that anymore. The fated one... the fated one... is the life of the Kinston Family members, unless you never meet your fated one in this lifetime, otherwise, you'll definitely fall in love with your fated one, and life and death will be controlled by them... It's always been like this, the Kinston Family members are always destined to fall in love with their fated one!"
His father's maniacal laughter was laden with extreme sorrow.
That's because... Mother's departure also meant that Father had permanently lost his fated one.
The dark phoenix eyes fixedly gazed at the sleeping visage. Would he fall in love with this woman? Could he even be controlled to the point of life and death by this utterly ordinary woman? It seemed like a joke!
In Falling City, the lives and deaths of countless people were controlled by his single thought. Apart from being able to stop his physical pain, what else could this woman do to control him? He could even end her life silently with a simple move of his hand.
"My life and death can only be controlled by myself." He murmured, "Even if you are my fated one, it makes no difference!"

When Mabel Quinn woke up, she was still lying on the sofa, but there was a blanket covering her. As for Kyle Kinston, he was nowhere to be seen.
Looking at her clothes, there was no sign they had been tampered with, meaning that Kyle Kinston had specifically brought her here yesterday just to hold hands and watch TV in the room?
It couldn't be that Kyle Kinston actually fancied her and wanted to develop feelings with her.
This answer seemed impossible even to Mabel Quinn herself.
However, with Kyle Kinston not in the room, and until she left, she hadn't seen him again, which actually made her breathe a sigh of relief.
