Chapter 235 Afraid
“I just can’t do it. Even if you shoot me dead, I can’t do it. Who is Frederick, and who am I? How could I possibly torment him?
“As everyone knows, Frederick is a general in charge of the entire Kingstown Security Department. I am now just a criminal who has just been released from prison.
“Although Frederick erased my criminal record, I am just an ordinary person, no longer the apple of the Prescott family’s eye. What can I do?
“The only things he cares about in his life are Anna and his career. You know, he is now running for president. If Anna were still alive, we could use her, but now she is dead. As for his career, I have no power to interfere. Of course, I can’t do it.”
Claire spoke the truth. She really couldn’t do it.
Frederick’s beloved was dead. Frederick wanted to get the position of president, and she had no right to interfere.
Claire was extremely anxious. The cold muzzle of the gun was still pressed against her forehead. Alan just needed to pull the trigger slightly, and she would disappear from this world completely. How could she not be afraid?
“Yes! Hahaha… You certainly can’t do it, but your words reminded me. It’s your good idea, so you should come with me. I

think that scene will definitely be very exciting.”
Alan laughed and took back the gun in his hand.
“What?” Claire was confused.

Without saying a word, Alan took Claire to the basement where the hostages were held.
“What are you bringing me here for?” Claire didn’t know what he was going to do.
“Him.”
Alan ignored her completely. He glanced at the imprisoned hostages and pointed at one of them, a child who looked about seven or eight years old.
“My son! My son! What are you going to do? Don’t take my son!”
The woman next to her son, seeing that he was about to be taken away, desperately protected him.
Alan’s men went over and directly knocked the woman out, bringing the child out.
Finally, Alan brought the child and Claire to the water dungeon where Frederick was imprisoned.
The water dungeon was open–air, guarded by guards. The water inside was very foul–smelling, and it was unclear what it contained. Before even approaching, Claire felt nauseous.

3/5
Frederick was imprisoned in the water dungeon, and the foul–smelling water had already reached up to his neck, but he didn’t react at all.
He seemed to have been through such training for years, so this was just a common occurrence for him.
Claire had never seen this side of Frederick before.
In the past, she had always thought that Frederick must have gone through a lot of hardships that ordinary people couldn’t imagine to climb to such a high position.
But she had never personally experienced such hardships.
This was just a water dungeon. She hadn’t even approached, and she already couldn’t stand it.
Taking a few more steps forward, Claire was even more shocked and even felt a bit dizzy.
Was that…
Claire almost thought she had seen wrong. She squeezed her eyes shut tightly and opened them again.

But what she saw was the same. There were many snakes in the foul–smelling water coiled around Frederick, biting him.
Claire felt her hair stand on end, and her spine chilled. Her feet seemed to take root, and she could no longer move forward at

all.
“General Hawthorne, look at the gift I brought you.”

Noticing Claire’s reaction, Alan just glanced at her and smiled as he grabbed the child and walked up to Frederick.
“What are you going to do?”
