Substitute Wife, Genius CEO novel Chapter 481

"What's going on in here?" A female guard demanded, approaching the cell after hearing the commotion.

Big Roxy Flint offered a wide, innocent smile. "Our new sis here is just a little clumsy. She tripped over her own feet and took a nasty tumble."

Lilith was in so much pain she couldn't even speak. The guard frowned and looked at the other inmates. "Is that true?"

The other women, terrified of Roxy, immediately nodded in unison. "She fell by herself."

Once the guard walked away, Roxy crouched down next to Lilith.

"If you breathe a single word of this, I'll end you."

As she spoke, Roxy grabbed a chunk of flesh on Lilith's arm and twisted it viciously.

"Ah! Mmph!"

The moment Lilith opened her mouth to scream, Roxy shoved a foul-smelling ball of fabric—what looked like a filthy sock—straight into Lilith's mouth.

Whether from the excruciating pain or the suffocating stench, Lilith's vision went completely black for a moment.

Tears streamed down Lilith's face. Her heart was consumed by absolute hatred, but at this moment, no matter how much she hated Roxy, she was entirely powerless.

"Are you going to scream again?" Roxy demanded.

Lilith cried and shook her head frantically.

Only then did Roxy show a shred of mercy and yank the filthy sock out. "Do you know how to give a massage?"

"Yes, yes, yes," Lilith nodded desperately.

"Get over here and massage my head."

Roxy sat back comfortably while Lilith stood behind her, nervously massaging her temples.

Slap! Roxy reached back and smacked the back of Lilith's hand. "Did you skip dinner? Use some force."

Lilith's hands were accustomed to premium hand creams and luxury treatments; they were soft, pale, and delicate. The single slap left a bright red mark.

Swallowing her rage, Lilith apologized. "I'm sorry, Roxy. Is this better?"

"That's more like it." Roxy closed her eyes, thoroughly enjoying being served by the former billionaire's wife. She felt like royalty.

The second Lilith walked into the cell, Roxy had recognized her.

However, because Roxy had been locked up for a while, she had no idea Lilith had been completely stripped of her status.

Lilith spent the entire night in cautious terror, massaging Roxy's head, kneading her legs, and serving her every whim until she finally caught a break in the early hours of the morning.

She had reached her breaking point. She couldn't stay in this hellhole for another second. She desperately wanted out.

But who was going to save her?

Xavier? Lydia? Bennett?

Lilith was drowning in despair and agony. She swore to herself: once she got out, she would win Xavier back and make Summer pay!!!!!

Meanwhile, in a private dining room at The Gilded Table.

Summer sat at the head of the table, with Silas seated to her left. The rest of the guests were top executives from various banks.

Silas had pulled strings to gather all of them in one room.

With Silas presiding over the dinner, everyone was incredibly polite to Summer—but it was purely polite.

The only reason these banks had synchronized their loan recalls was because they were following the Sterling Group's lead.

None of them dared to offend a massive client like the Sterlings.
