Chapter 1683
The clothes were all high-end, limited edition, designer-branded clothes.
Before her family ran into a dead end and she dropped from where she was, Lara never liked others touching her clothes.
Even when she was attending events, if an artist were to step on the hem of her dress by accident, she would rain fire and brimstone on that individual.
Lara did not respond to him but became even merrier instead as she tore the clothes.
Ken got up and motioned to the servant.
"Bring her to wash up."
The maid stepped forward to help her up, and Lara reacted violently, struggling and resisting her.
"Don’t touch me.Go away!"
There was nothing that the maid could do.
Ken rolled up his sleeves, walked up to her, grabbed her by the hair, dragged her to the edge of the swimming pool, and submerged her head into the water.She choked and struggled in the pool, but the people on the side did not dare to stop him.
Seeing that she gave up struggling, Ken pulled her head up, and she coughed violently, gasping for breath as light reflected off her wet and pale face.
Ken swept her wet hair behind her, held her chin in his hand, and lowered his voice.
"Since you’ve chosen to pretend that you’ve lost your mind, then you should put up the show for the rest of your life and don’t let anyone find out."
Lara’s shoulders trembled as her eyes dimmed.
"Don’t worry."
Ken lifted her face.
"The Reeses are the ones who allowed me to climb to where I am today, and I consider that a favor.If you were to die too, wouldn’t that make me an ungrateful person?"
He giggled and stroked the burnt half of her face with his palm.He did not seem to fee] disgusted by it.
She dodged his hand subconsciously and was held down by him.
"The Reeses lost power, and my fiancee was disfigured, but I didn’t abandon her and took good care of her.So listen, this is such a beautiful story which will be sung and praised."
Knowing that he was acting in front of people but was actually imprisoning her, Lara could tell he was only using her to showcase his sympathy, deep affection for her, and righteousness to make everyone stand on his side.
Thus, even if he were to take over all of Jonah’s assets, no one would doubt his intentions.
Lara glared at him fiercely.
"The public will surely expose your hypocrisy someday!"
A hint of indifferent hilarity flashed across Ken’s eyes.
"It doesn’t matter.After all, who will believe what a lunatic says?"
Lara froze all of a sudden.
