"I'll ask you once more, where's the key!?" Evelyn flicked her wrist and pulled out a dagger before pressing it against Darryl's neck. "Hand over the key!"
Oh sh*t!
Darryl could feel the blade's coldness against his skin. He could not dodge Evelyn's actions with his current body condition.
Darryl doubled down and said to Evelyn, "Come on, kill me then. Once I’m dead, Emei Sect will be dealing with your grandfather. There'll be no hope for you to save your grandfather at that time."
"You’re still so stubborn!" Evelyn lightly pushed the dagger against Darryl's neck and left a bloodied line.
"Come on, do it," said Darryl coldly. He was certain Evelyn would not kill him!
"You..." Evelyn bit her lip and kept the dagger upon hearing Darryl's words before saying to him in a gentler tone, "Darryl, could you please give me the key?" i
Darryl felt pleased as this was his first time hearing Evelyn talking in such a gentle manner. He smiled, looked at her, and said, "Finally some sincerity."
Evelyn quickly grabbed an apple and a fruit knife beside Darryl as he finished his sentence. "How about
I peel an apple for you?"
'When did Evelyn become so submissive? This is probably her first time peeling fruit for someone, such sincerity!'
However, Darryl still shook his head and smiled. "I don't feel like eating."
'This bastard!' Evelyn scolded internally.
She anxiously stomped her feet and said, "What exactly do you want?"
Darryl did not say a word and simply checked her out with a smile. He looked at Evelyn from top to bottom with a sly grin on his face. 1
Evelyn looked young, pretty, and was simply alluring today wearing a pair of black jeans and a sweatshirt.
'This bastard... What does he want?’ Evelyn thought.
Darryl's stare made Evelyn shy and angry as though her entire body was trapped under his gaze. However, she could not afford to get mad under such circumstances and simply endured.
