Megan chuckled lightly when she saw Darryl had knelt in front of her. “Darryl, you’re such a b*stard—kneeling at my command, and now you’re begging me. Have you ever thought about how you treated me when I begged you then? Do you know how bad I felt when I begged you for forgiveness?
“Do you know how I got through it when you rejected me? I am only like this now because of you. Also, I am never letting Lily, Queenie, and Celine go. Not only will I not let them go, but I will also extract your cousin’s essence into an elixir right in front of you.
“I swore that no matter how you treated me, I will return it to you a hundredfold.”
Megan’s face looked cold when she said the last sentence.
Megan did not want to involve others in her grudge with Darryl. However, when she saw how the ugly woman and Darryl were so close to each other, and Darryl was even willing to kneel and beg on behalf of Queenie and Celine, Megan’s jealousy erupted.
“You—”
Darryl was angry and afraid when he felt Megan’s fury and resentment. Then, darkness almost claimed him.
“Darryl!”
Since Darryl remained silent, Megan did not bother to say anything else. She said coldly, “There is nothing to discuss between us. By dawn, I will make your cousin into an elixir. Enjoy your remaining time together.”
Then, Megan looked smug as she turned and left.
The prison was extremely silent; one could even hear it if a pin were dropped onto the ground.
Darryl lowered his head and leaned on the wall; he was extremely depressed.
It seemed like begging would not work with Megan. However, he could not sit and watch as Megan turned Queenie into an elixir.
“Darryl.” Darryl, who was by the side, said gently, “Don’t worry. There will always be a way. There is still time from now until dawn. Let’s try to see if we could unseal our acupoints!”
Hmm!
