CEO's Dumb Bride novel Chapter 141

Chapter 141 Punish Her

Lilian stood up abruptly, her eyes fixed on the man entering the door.

Francis walked in with long strides and came to Lilian's side. He took off his coat and casually threw it on the sofa.

He raised his hand and gestured towards his shoulder. The bodyguard standing at the door immediately understood and silently left.

His calm gaze fell on Lilian's face, a calm before the storm.

Lilian instinctively took a step back.

Francis took a step forward, pressing closer until Lilian fell back onto the sofa.

He leaned down, staring into Lilian's eyes as he said, "Do you remember what I said?"

Lilian nervously intertwined her fingers and looked up at his piercing eyes. A trace of fear came from her heart.

Francis said, "Did I say that if you didn't behave, I would break your legs and lock you up?"

Lilian's pupils contracted, and amidst panic and fear, there was also a hint of pleading in her eyes. She bit her lip and shook her head slightly.

Francis's slender fingers lightly held her chin, his tone unexpectedly gentle. "But how could I bear to break your legs? What should I do?"

If he was furious, Lilian would have some room for resistance. But since he was calm like this, she was left with only fear.

Because of fear, her shoulders trembled uncontrollably, and she couldn't help but want to stand up and escape from there.

Francis stared at her eyes for a while, suddenly straightened his body, and turned his head slightly. "Then I can only lock you up for now."

Lilian's eyes widened, and she anxiously gestured with her hand, but Francis had already turned away and no longer looked at her.

"Nelson."

Nelson was waiting outside. When he heard his name, he quickly ran in.

"Mr. Landau."

"I leave it to you."
