Chapter 899 Anya on the Verge of Madness
Anya’s face was on full display, but her eyes were closed as if she was asleep.
Xander noticed this and came forward. “Sir, shall I wake her?”
Connor hummed in agreement.
Xander took a look around the room and saw a cup of water on the table. It had probably been left behind by the police officers who interrogated Anya. When he saw the cup of water, he swiftly went over and picked it up before splashing the water onto her face.
The police officer who brought them into the room stared at them in shock. He never thought that these two men would resort to such means to wake her up. However, Mr. Salzburg seemed to be fine with the way his assistant treated Anya. This puzzled the police officer very much. Isn’t Anya Steinfeld Mr. Salzburg’s daughter? Why is he completely fine with how his assistant treated his daughter?
At the same time, Anya regained consciousness after getting water splashed onto her face. She had been a nervous wreck for the past two days, and now that she had been startled awake, she screamed in fear.
Her piercing screams made Connor incredibly annoyed. He barked, “Shut up!”
As soon as Anya heard Connor’s voice, she stopped screaming and raised her head in disbelief.
When she saw Connor’s grim face in front of her, her eyes turned wide with fear. “M-Mr. Salzburg, why are you here?”
She gulped in fear, and her body began to tremble.
When the police officer saw this scene, he became even more puzzled. That’s weird. Isn’t she his daughter? Why is she frightened at the sight of him? And she didn’t call him father or daddy either, but Mr. Salzburg. This feels really odd!
Despite being curious, the police officer did not dare voice his doubts. After all, it was a family matter, so after taking another look at the three of them in the trial room, he turned around and walked away.
Earlier, Mr. Salzburg had requested to meet with Anya alone. The police chief had agreed to Mr. Salzburg’s request, so there was no reason for the police officer to stick around.
Soon enough, there were only three of them in the trial room: Anya, Connor, and Xander. Xander wisely stood guard at the door and kept out of the conversation between Connor and Anya. As for Connor, he slowly removed his walking cane that was under Anya’s jaw and placed it back down on the ground.
Anya felt relieved that it had been removed where it had been beneath her jaw. She forced a smile and spoke very carefully. “Mr. Salzburg, you… you haven’t told me why you’re here yet.”
This old man who stood in front of her now typically had a calm and jovial demeanor, but in reality, he was a very twisted person. Anya recalled the methods that he used to torture people and began to shiver instinctively. She tried to be as careful and respectful as possible to avoid making him angry.
“Why am I here?” Connor walked past the table and took a seat before shifting his chilling gaze to Anya. “You should be asking yourself that question. Anya Steinfeld, didn’t I tell you that if you came to Seafield first, then you should stay out of trouble? I warned you to stay out of sight as it’s not time for you to make an appearance yet, but what did you do instead? On the first day that you arrived in Seafield, you went and created a scene by getting into an accident with Toby Fuller, and you ended up pissing off Sonia Reed. You exposed yourself to them, and I had to change all of my plans because of you. Tell me, are you a glutton for punishment? If you are, then I don’t mind doing you a favor!”
