Armond gazed coldly at me, his dark eyes gradually shrouded by devilish redness. Then, his lips curved into a vicious smile as he hissed at me, “Rotting in a jail cell? Haha! Scarlett, no doubt Ashton has fallen head over heels in love with you! I’m really impressed with your courage. So far, nobody dares to talk to me like that!”
I moved backward as he approached me inch by inch, never shifting his blazing eyes away from me. Bang! The sound was followed by a slight pain on my back, indicating that I had retreated to a corner of the cage. As a wave of fear surged within me, my legs started to tremble. I gulped and was about to force myself to utter some words. However, in just a split second, he ripped my clothes into pieces and bellowed, “The rest of you, get out now!”
Everyone in the room stumbled out in an instant. As he trapped me in between his arms, I stammered in panic, “A-Armond, what do you intend to do to me? You can’t touch me! A-Ashton won’t let you off easily!”
He snickered, “Do you think that I’m afraid of him? He’s just a nobody to me! Scarlett, you must have forgotten that this is my turf. Do you think he has the right to stop me from doing anything? After all, he’s still busy investigating me in A City at the moment. Do you think he can reach here at once to come to your rescue?”
As he leaned closer to me, I was repulsed by his disgusting countenance. My entire body was shivering in utter anxiety, and I was seconds away from an emotional breakdown. I intended to raise my arms and push him away, yet he was far too strong.
The insidious man looked at me from head to toe with his ferocious eyes. After a while, he slowly took off his black suit and unbuttoned his shirt. My eyes widened as my voice quivered. “What are you doing?”
He twitched his lips and asked mockingly, “You know what I want to do now, don’t you?”
Shaking my head frantically, I tried to talk him into changing his mind by yelling, “Armond, you can’t do this! Nora is still in this villa as well. You can’t do that! You can’t!”
His lips lifted into a sly smile. “Didn’t you have a bet with her earlier? Well, this is a golden opportunity for you to test it out now. You can experience it for yourself, and you’ll find out the truth. Besides, maybe you’ll get to know whether Ashton or I have better skills too!”
“Back off!” I grimaced and growled at him. How I wish I could rip him into pieces at once, but there was nothing I could do!
He stared at me and said sarcastically, “Why’re you looking at me like that? How do you know that I’m not as well-built as Ashton? You can place your hand on my body and feel it for yourself. Come on now, don’t be shy…”
Crouching beside me, he grabbed my hands to press on his body forcefully. I tried hard to pull my hands away, yet to no avail.
