chapter 1566
"Jane, I'm not toying with you. I never did. Do you believe me?" Alex said regretfully.
Jane snorted after a pause. "Is... Is that even possible?" She lifted her head to look at Alex with her blank eyes before looking back at herself. "The two of US might as well be as different as the sky and the ground. I was just taken to you, all chained up like a dog as some sort of trophy, and now you are asking me to go home with you? This time, it is dog chains. What's going to be next? oh, right, where is your wife, Lily Parker? She... She isn't here with you?"
"Mrs. Poole, you are the Mrs. Poole," Garrett, who had just cut off the chains on Jane, said as he choked back his tears.
Jane slowly turned to look at Garrett.
"Mrs. Poole, it's Garrett. You remember me, don't you? That time on the mountain, I was the one who let you and Mr. Hill go. I'm the same Garrett whose wife and house you once visited in Master Alex’s stead, Mrs. Poole," he said.
Jane's expression remained blank, with much resemblance to a patient in an asylum.

Jane turned her gaze back to Alex. Whoever Garrett was, what did that have to do with her anyways?
She called out to him in a hoarse voice, "Alex, the truth is, whatever tricks or plays you want to use on me, it's fine as long as you and your wife are satisfied. I only have one request: don't harm the innocents. The old lady is already seventy this year. Let her go so that she can at least beg on the streets, okay? she has nothing to do with me. Her son saved me, and I insisted on spending the rest of my life with her son, but now her son is dead! Just--" Tears immediately started streaming down Jane's face. "Just murdered unjustly in the wild with no one to even collect his body. It's just one old lady, she wouldn't have the strength to take revenge even if she wanted to. Let her go and live out her life, okay? If you could just do that, you can do anything you want to me. I... I can even think of new ways to torture me for you." 2
Jane's expression suddenly brightened up as though she had come up with a way to save the old mother. "Really, Alex, really. I can help you come up with ways for you to torture me."
