Chapter 991 Torturing At the Duncansâ dungeon, Zobber finally got Karlâs permission to enter here safely after sucking up to him for days.
Zobber was totally impressed by the dungeon, which looked like it was made of iron.
She thought Hacker Alliance was mysterious enough, but it turned out Karl was even more badass.
Everyone thought that the Duncansâ roots were in Casier, so they wouldnât have much influence when they first arrived in Loxton.
But to everyoneâs surprise, Karl had such an influential background here in Loxton.
Zobber wasnât in a rush to meet Selene. She looked around carefully and studied for a while. âPaxton, Karl is quite something.
That was truly impressive to have such a huge dungeon hidden in the bustling Loxton.
Paxton gave a somewhat arrogant smile and said, âHave you ever thought about how distinguished Karl was back in the day?
This is nothing. Do you want to meet her or not? If not, I have other work to attend to.â
These days, the Duncans were busy preparing for Brandenâs upcoming wedding. As the assistant to the Duncans, he was so busy that he didnât even have time to sleep.
It was such a joyous occasion that he naturally had to make every effort. He had even fought hard to seize many opportunities.
If it werenât for Karlâs orders and Zobber specifically requested his presence, he wouldnât be wasting time here.
Zobber suddenly lost all interest and gave Paxton a displeased look. âHmph. Whatâs so great about it? Iâll come with Catherine next time.â
Paxton was so angry that he wanted to grab Zobber, hang her upside down, and spank her. âThis girl was really infuriating,â he thought.
They walked to the bottom floor of the dungeon, where the most heinous criminals were held.
However, there was someone special.
Through the small window, Zobber saw a figure curled up in the corner inside. For just a few days, she had completely lost her charm from before.
Paxton asked Zobber for her opinion, then opened the cage.
Hearing some commotion, Selene slowly lifted her head from the ground.
Yep, the person detained here was Selene.
Everyone thought she had run away and disappeared, but no one knew Karl had already taken her away.
Karl locked her up in the dungeon of the Duncans, waiting for Catherine to finish up and then decide her fate.
At first, Selene was wilding out. She was causing a ruckus practically every second.
But this was the prison personally arranged by Karl. Many bad guys had been held here.
They didnât even need to do much and just gave Selene a little bit of food every day to make sure she didnât starve.
After just one week, Selene had already grown up and become obedient.
She stopped messing around, stopped crying and being loud, and just behaved.
The guard increased her portion to two meals a day, and she instantly stopped complaining because she had learned her lesson.
When she heard some noise, she thought it was the guards coming to bring her dinner. But to her surprise, she saw Zobber and Paxton standing there.
Her eyes instantly darkened, and her entire expression became incredibly cold. âAre you all here to see me off?â
Paxton didnât say anything. Zobber walked straight up to Selene.
She squatted down, giving Selene a cold stare with a strange smile. âYouâre pretty clever, huh? You can even guess why weâre here. Since you already know whatâs going on in your heart, we wonât make things difficult for you. Do it yourself.â
Zobber threw a medicine bottle in front of Selene and stared at her with a blank face. âIâm giving you a chance. Take action quickly, This medicine wonât have any side effects. It wonât make you feel uncomfortable.â
This made Seleneâs body shake uncontrollably.
She thought she didnât care about living or dying, but when she really knew that someone was going to send her off, she still trembled in fear.
Seeing her in this state, Zobber wanted to play a little prank. âShe actually dared to harm Catherine. Sheâs going to have to pay the price for it.â
Zobber gave a look to Paxton, who immediately understood what Zobber was getting at.
Despite feeling helpless, Paxton didnât stop Zobber from taking action.
He quickly walked up to Selene and restrained her.
But he didnât tighten his grip too much, leaving some room for her to struggle.
Selene started to go crazy, screaming loudly regardless of her demeanor. â What are you trying to do? Do you know that killing is illegal?â
Zobber squatted down in front of Selene, squinting and examining her with a playful smile. âYo, just a moment ago, you were acting all tough; why are you backing down now?â
Selene valued reputation more than her life. When she heard Zobberâs words, she felt more miserable than being killed.
Zobber firmly grabbed her chin, forcing her to make eye contact. âWhen you started messing with Catherine back in the day, you should have known there would be consequences like this.â
âShe actually dared to harm Catherine and even planned to harm the baby in Catherineâs belly.â This was enough to make Zobber explode with anger just by talking about it, let alone the fact that the perpetrator was standing in front of her right now.
If she didnât give Selene a good lesson, she would not be Zobber.
Selene was scared pale.
After watching her struggle for a while, Zobber said to Paxton, âGrab her tight. Letâs send her on her way now.â
Now, no matter how much Selene struggled, it was in vain.
Zobber quickly pried open her mouth and shoved all the white pills into her mouth.
Without giving her a chance to hesitate, Zobber directly forced her to swallow it.
After she swallowed it, Zobber gestured for Paxton to release her.
After Selene was released, she immediately shrunk to the side, frantically digging at her throat, trying to dig out the pills.
Her disheveled appearance was truly comical.
Zobber was laughing her ass off on the side, feeling pretty damn proud as she recorded every bit of Seleneâs miserable state.
Selene threw up some of the pills, but Zobber gave her too much. She couldnât guarantee she threw up all of it.
When she saw Zobber was still filming her, she got so mad and let out a loud roar. âDo you want me to die so bad? Do you think you can get away with it? If I die, none of you can escape.â
Upon hearing this, Zobber burst out laughing. âScaredy-cat, I was just pranking; I didnât expect you to be such a coward.â
Upon hearing this, Selene was immediately stunned. She stared at Zobber with wide eyes filled with anger.
Seeing her smile getting bigger and bigger, Selene realized she was being tricked and was so angry that she wanted to slap Zobber.
Before she could even get close to Zobber, Zobber kicked her away.
Zobber looked down at Selene, who was lying on the ground, and said with a cold tone, âYouâve got a chance to come clean. Iâll let you off today, but if you keep being stubborn, Iâll come to take care of you 24/7. Just you wait!â
