The Return of the Disguised Princess novel Chapter 262

Chapter 262 Suffering

Looking at her twisted and pained expression, Lamont felt more anger than anything else.

“I warned you not to lay a hand on my woman. You’d be wise not to test my patience, or else I may not be able to restrain myself from taking your life.”

Revenge? In his heart, had he already become a murderer?

Leila suddenly found herself ridiculously hopeful, hoping that the man before her could see her pain and have a

moment of softness.

She forced a bitter smile, terrifyingly calm.

“What are you laughing at?”

Lamont’s grip on her tightened.

Leila was nearly unable to breathe, her eyes wide and fixed on Lamont’s handsome face.

Only then Lamont regained some of his senses, revealing an impatient expression. He grabbed Leila by the neck and

threw her hard to the side.

Leila fell directly to the ground, her arm hitting the corner of the table.

“Don’t overestimate yourself! As long as Amelie’s safety is at stake, don’t even consider trying to escape.”

Lamont said, turning around and leaving the room.

A few of his men then appeared and took Leila away.

She was taken to the familiar entrance of the villa, but this time she wasn’t free. Instead, she was locked in a room in

the basement.

Blackness devoured all her hope.

Leila curled up, her body cold.

“Feed her a meal and water every day, but don’t let her die.”

Lamont instructed, watching the surveillance footage with a cold tone and expressionless face.

The assistant was slightly taken aback.

“Yes, sir.”

“Mr. Byron, Miriam is here and waiting in the living room.”

A subordinate walked in and couldn’t help but glance at the screen on the wall.

“What is she here for?”

Lamont took a deep breath, trying to calm his raging emotions.

“I don’t know, sir.”

The subordinate replied timidly, afraid to say the wrong thing.

Miriam was sitting on the leather sofa in the living room, feeling anxious.

When she heard that Leila had escaped, she immediately contacted Lamont, but she didn’t expect him to bring Leila

back.

At this moment, there were footsteps coming from behind her.

Miriam quickly stood up and looked at Lamont, who was walking towards her.

“Mr. Byron,” she said.

“What is it?”

His cold tone dampened Miriam’s enthusiasm.

“I heard that you brought Leila back. Mr. Byron, you can’t let her get away with this. She boldly told me in the hospital that this was all her plan, just to win your affection…”

Miriam continued to embellish her story, pretending to be pitiful.

“Did she really say that?”

Lamont’s anger flared up, his eyes glinting dangerously.

“Yes, she did. And, in fact, the trouble that Ms. Mullen is facing right now is also her doing. Mr. Byron, why don’t

you…”

Before Miriam could finish her sentence Lamont turned and left.

“You don’t have to worry about this anymore.”

After that, he left without saying another word.

Miriam watched helplessly as the man she loved disappeared from her sight.

For some reason, she was feeling very anxious now.
