Chapter 770
If she sought someone who resembled her husband, she would not feel as though she had betrayed him…
“I’ve said this before.I have more important things to do, so I can't stay in Yggdra.” Duke’s voice was icy and carried a dangerous edge to it.
“Your Majesty, please understand that I can have either Black Party surrender or rebel.You'd best let me go, or there will be unbearable consequences.”
“I will endure any consequence,” Mavice said with a smile.
“I will give you another twenty-four hours to think about it.If you still refuse, don't blame me for using a different method.” She turned around and left the dark room.
She locked the door from outside.
There was silence all around.
Duke held his breath and listened closely for any movement outside.
When he was certain that the coast was clear, his two hands, which were tied behind his back, wrapped several loops around the rope and his bonds came free.He crouched down to untie the ropes around his legs.
Then, he walked toward where his phone lay on the floor and picked it up.His phone battery had finally run out.He gritted his teeth and put the phone into his pocket.
With that, he began to inspect the dark room.It was about eight square meters, and there was a small window two meters above him.
When he stood on a chair, he could see the eerie, dark corridor from it.The corridor was deserted.
Maybe he could try to escape.
The window was too small.
An adult would not be able to crawl out through it.
But there was a vent above him, and it was just large enough to allow a grown man to crawl through.
Duke was about to make his move when he suddenly heard voices from the window.
