Chapter 233 Gwen Stands Up for Her Sister

Chapter 233 Gwen Stands Up for Her Sister (5K-word Chapter!)
Hawke's voice was very soft.

but……

These words are like a thunderclap from a clear sky!

Gwen's smile vanished instantly, and she stared wide-eyed at Hawke.

"what?"

Caroline, who had been looking away from a distance, also instantly turned her gaze to Hawke, her expression shocked and her eyes filled with terror.

"How did you..."

Didn't your cousin tell you?

Hawke looked at Caroline, who had finally turned her gaze to him, and said with a deep look in his eyes, "No one can hide the things I want to know from me, not even you."

Gwen's gaze suddenly fell on Caroline.

"You didn't tell me about this."

"I……"

Caroline opened her mouth, looked at Gwen, and then a wry smile appeared on her face: "Cousin, this isn't a very..."

The words have not yet fallen.

Gwen's gentle gaze had vanished; she stared intently at Hawke, her expression serious, her voice unusually so.

"who is he."

"Damon Salvatore!"

"He's still alive?"

"Yes."

Hawke shrugged, looked at Gwen, and smiled slightly.

"I was about to kill you, but you stopped me."

"If I had known about this, I wouldn't have stopped you."

“I can turn him over here if you want.”

"I think!"

Gwen looked at Hawke without any hesitation in her reply.

Hawke smiled brightly, and with a thought, his sixth sense, which enveloped the entire town, instantly captured Damon, who was still in the valley and had just been pulled out of the rubble by Stefan. Then, he activated 'Sixth Sense - Teleportation': "As you wish, Mrs. Phoenix."

The words fell.

Boom!
Damon Salvatore fell onto the lawn in front of him amidst the ripples in space.

Caroline, who was standing nearby, watched this scene and looked at Gwen.

"cousin……"

"Shut up!"

Gwen snapped at her, then looked at Caroline: "Does your aunt know about this?"

Caroline opened her mouth.

"I……"

"He not only controlled Caroline, but he even used his vampire charm to infiltrate the town's management committee."

Hawke calmly added insult to injury from the side.

It's not his fault.

He had warned Caroline beforehand not to gossip.

result……

She wouldn't listen.

Since that's the case, if Caroline does the first day of the month, then it's perfectly normal for him to do the fifteenth.

The most important thing.

He never spread rumors; he only tells the facts.

It is an indisputable fact that Damon once hypnotized Gwen's cousin Caroline, turning her into a sex slave for a period of time.

Upon hearing this, Gwen took a deep breath, glanced at Damon Salvatore who was bound to the spot by Hawke, unable to move his limbs or speak, and then looked at Caroline in a low voice: "He hypnotized and raped you, and you didn't tell your aunt. You even became friends with a rapist. Gisène, Caroline, you are also the sheriff's daughter!"

Jesus!

God!

Virgin Mary!
Gwen felt she was already unconventional enough, after all, even in New York City, no one would be certain that the person they're dating is their future when they're having their first relationship.

But she was convinced that Hawke was her future, so she gave up the university she had always longed for, accepted Hawke's marriage proposal, and moved in with him.

Many people say that this is a huge gamble for her, and many people think that she is unconventional enough.

But right now...

Goodness, Gwen felt like a nobody compared to her cousin Caroline.

What kind of good person would choose to be friends with a rapist after being hypnotized and raped?

The most important thing.

Caroline is also the sheriff's daughter.

“The victim’s silence is not a protection for themselves, but a reward for the perpetrator.”

Don't you know this phrase?

Gwen looked at Caroline speechlessly, remembering a quote Hawk had once made.

Or have you lost your mind?

"No, cousin."

Caroline looked at Gwen and quickly explained, "Damon and I are not friends, God, I would never be friends with that scumbag."

Gwen remained expressionless.

"But you went to find Hawke with this rapist, didn't you?"

"I wasn't with Damon, I was with..."

Just as Caroline was frantically explaining, three whooshing sounds rushed in from outside the manor.

next second.

Stefan, carrying Elena, and Bonnie the Black Witch also appeared on the lawn in the backyard of the manor.

Good guy.

If you light a bonfire on the lawn, people who don't know the area might think there's going to be a bonfire party.

After putting his girlfriend Elena down, Stefan looked at Damon, who was giving him terrified winks, and quickly tried to step forward: "Damon!"

With a thought, Hawke's six senses transformed into invisible threads, instantly binding Stefan to the spot.

Stefan, who had just started walking towards Damon, froze in place.

He is the same as Damon.

All four limbs were unable to move.

Words cannot express it.

Seeing this, Elena was about to step forward as well, but was stopped in time by her best friend, the Black Witch Bonnie.

Bonnie the Black Witch stood there in terror, her gaze not falling on Hawke, and said in a trembling voice, "Don't go over there, please don't go over there."

Hawke noticed them, but couldn't be bothered to look at them.

Gwen turned her head and looked at her cousin Caroline: "Do they know about this?"

Caroline shook her head.

Being hypnotized and treated like a sex slave is not a glorious thing, since outsiders would think that she was the one who actively pursued Damon.

"But are they friends of this rapist?"

“What? No, no, no, nobody wants to be friends with Damon. Elena and Bonnie don’t want to be friends with Damon either.”

"is it?"

Gwen's furrowed brows relaxed.

at this time.

Hawke walked over to his fiancée, put his mouth close to Gwen's ear, and whispered gossip about the entanglement between Elena and the Salvator brothers.

Gwen listened calmly to Hawke's gossip, glanced at her cousin again, and then said to Hawke, "She really doesn't know what happened to my cousin?"

Hawke never lies: "His brother Stefan should have figured it out, but as for Elena, she really didn't know about it."

At least at this point in time, we don't know.

After all, he could understand Caroline's thoughts. Being hypnotized and used as a sex slave was already a tragic thing, so how could she possibly tell everyone about it?

But understanding is understanding.

Hawke is still on Gwen's side.

Well known.

He has always sided with his relatives regardless of right or wrong.

Gwen turned her head and glanced at Stefan, who was also frozen in place, then looked at Elena, who was anxiously pacing around Stefan's side. She frowned and said, "He knew about this, but he didn't stop it?"

Hawke shrugged: "He did want to, but Damon Salvatore is a carnivorous vampire, and Stefan is his brother, and a vegetarian vampire at that. Even if he knew, he couldn't stop him. Besides, after your cousin became a vampire, Damon even wanted to kill her. It was Stefan and Elena who stopped Damon."

As for why Damon suggested killing Caroline after learning she had become a vampire...

The reason is simple.

To prevent the fact that he obtained Caroline's body through hypnosis from being exposed.

After all, his brother Stefan relied on his personal charm, while he could only resort to such underhanded methods as hypnosis.

Gwen's expression was stunned.

She had seen it in the SHIELD files.

There are good and bad people among humans, and vampires are no exception. Some vampires follow their instincts to drink human blood, while others fight against their instincts, restrain their desires, and become vampires who do not drink blood.

Gwen's understanding at the time was that the former was more animalistic than human, while the latter was humanistic in suppressing animalistic instincts.

at the moment--

It really is.

Gwen listened to Hawke's words and looked at Caroline: "Is what Hawke said true?"

Caroline's mind was in complete turmoil. To be precise, after something she had intended to completely hide and forget was unexpectedly exposed, she felt like she had nothing to lose. Hearing Gwen's words, she nodded.

Seeing this, Gwen said to Hawke, "Let him go."

Hawke hummed.

Boom!
Once freed from his restraints, Stefan collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

Seeing this, Elena quickly helped Stefan up, then looked at Damon, who was still bound there, and then at Caroline, who was not far away and dared not even raise her head under the low scolding of her cousin.

"What happened?" "..."

Stefan did not speak.

but……

He looked at his brother Damon, who was pleading for help with a terrified expression, and then at Caroline not far away, and he already had a guess in his mind.

really.

Bonnie, the Black Witch who had been standing at the back, trying to blend into the surrounding darkness, looked at the bound Damon with disgust and said to Elena beside her, "Caroline didn't like Damon willingly. Damon hypnotized Caroline and made her like him."

Upon hearing this, Elena's eyes widened as she looked at Bonnie, who had spoken, and then at Damon, who was bound.

at the same time.

Gwen looked at Caroline, who was standing in front of her with her head down, and didn't really want to say anything anymore.

"Hawk, kill this Q..."

"no!"

Caroline's eyes narrowed, and upon hearing this, she looked up at Gwen.

Gwen was delighted.

"What, you've fallen for this rapist?"

"No, Klaus is coming. Damon may be a scumbag, but he's the strongest fighter among us. We need him."

"Not now."

"what?"

Caroline looked at her cousin Gwen, who had interrupted her with a blank expression.

Gwen looked at her fiancé beside her and asked, "What is the cruelest way for a vampire to die?"

Hawke smiled slightly: "Exposed to the sunlight."

If a vampire were to appear in the sunlight without any precautions, the ubiquitous ultraviolet rays would be like a human covered in wounds being thrown into a bottomless salt pan.

That omnipresent pain, that aches and pains that fill the whole body, will turn a vampire to ashes in the most desperate and screaming way.

Gwen took out her phone, glanced at the time: "There's still an hour until sunrise, perfect. I'm going to let him die in the sun!"

She was angry.

And she has every right to be angry.

Gwen and Caroline were about the same age, and whenever she came here before, she would always sleep in the same bed with Caroline. In addition, she only had a younger brother at home in New York City, so although Caroline was her cousin, Gwen felt like she was her own sister.

How could she not be angry when her sister was being humiliated?

Not to mention, this kind of insult is the most extreme form of insult for women.

and so……

Hawke smiled and replied, "As you wish."

Bound and bound, Damon looked down at the Sun Ring slowly being removed from his finger. He seemed to realize something, and his expression turned terrified. He tried desperately to shake and break free of his restraints.

But it was all in vain.

Once again, if even a small vampire can break free from Hawke's current psychic restraints, it can only mean that someone has weakened Hawke's current combat power.

Hawke opened his left hand, and the Sun Ring landed on his hand. He then handed it to Gwen, who was standing to the side: "An hour later, as the sunlight appears, he will also turn to ashes. If you feel that's not enough, next time I go to see Mephisto, I'll throw his soul into the underworld as well. When you can go to the underworld in the future, you can enjoy the torture arrangements made for him."

Gwen took the ring, listening to Hawke's words.

"May I?"

"Sure, it's just a matter of a word."

Hawke smiled.

If Mephisto was telling the truth, then he believed that Mephisto would agree to his request by taking advantage of this opportunity presented by the attack from Heaven.

after all--

As long as he's not in a hurry, then it's Mephisto who's in a hurry.

I want him to help me for free.

how is this possible.

How can this be allowed?

Hawke thought to himself.

at this time.

A voice sounded from behind.

"Mr. Phoenix..."

"Stephen."

Caroline looked at Stefan, who was walking towards her, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back, and felt a little conflicted.

She was quite flustered after Hawke revealed her biggest secret, and even resented Hawke for telling her cousin such a thing.

But seeing my cousin's angry expression later, I knew very well that she was angry because she cared about me.

and so……

Just now, when Caroline heard her cousin say "It's not necessary now" and then think about burning Damon alive in the sun, she felt a shiver run through her heart, but also a strange sense of pleasure.

Damon deserved it.

If Damon hadn't hypnotized her, she probably wouldn't have even had any contact with Elena and the others, and even if she had, she wouldn't be so deeply involved now.

After all, she was the captain of the school's cheerleading team.

Young and beautiful.

He comes from a distinguished family.

Unlike her aunt who was tricked into going to New York City by George Stacy's sweet words, and unlike her mother who fell in love with her father and became pregnant at a young age.

Without a doubt, Caroline's future is destined to be brilliant.

But Damon ruined all of that.

There's one thing she can never do after becoming a vampire.

Pregnant!
and so……

She hated Damon, and therefore felt a little grateful to her cousin after Gwen decided Damon's fate for her.

After all, she herself didn't have the ability to take revenge.

But now, looking at Stefan approaching, who was even looking at her with pleading and apologetic eyes, she couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted.

Gwen watched Stefan and Elena approach, noticing Stefan's gaze and understanding the meaning behind his words. Before Stefan could speak, she said with an icy expression, "If your sister were hypnotized and abused, would you let him go?"

Stefan's pleading words, which were already on the tip of his tongue, suddenly stopped. Meeting Gwen's cold gaze, he opened his mouth but couldn't say them.

"Sorry, I……"

“You really should apologize. If you hadn’t returned to the town, this rapist wouldn’t have come back, and my sister wouldn’t have been humiliated like this.”

"But you should be glad that you didn't become an accomplice to this rapist."

"You should also be glad that I'm a reasonable person."

“If it were someone else, it wouldn’t just be the rapist who died, but everyone connected to him.”

Gwen's face was as cold as ice as she struggled to control her emotions and spoke to Stefan in a deep voice.

Hawke glanced sideways at his fiancée.

He always felt that Gwen's last words seemed to be directed at him.

But not like that.

Because if it were him, he wouldn't want his own sister to be insulted like that.

hehe?

Will everyone connected to him die?

no no.

The entire town of Falls will follow in Wakanda's footsteps and be completely wiped off the map. At the same time, the souls of all the towns will be cast into his eight hells.

Stefan opened his mouth as he listened to Gwen's words.

"sorry."

"You can say goodbye to him."

Gwen was silent for a moment, then looked at Hawke: "Unmistak this guy."

Hawke didn't speak, but a thought crossed his mind.

next second.

The sound of Damon's complete panic came through.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong. Please forgive me this time. I was really wrong. I'm sorry."

"You don't know you're wrong, you know you're going to die."

Gwen glanced expressionlessly at Damon, who was pleading for mercy, said coldly, then looked away and pulled her cousin Caroline into the manor.

Hawke followed behind.

Gwen suddenly remembered something and turned to Hawke: "Won't we wake Grandpa?"
