âI seem to have overestimated you.
You donât know what repentance is,â
Mitchel said through clenched teeth.
His voice was extremely cold.
âRepentance? Why should I repent?â Katie retorted arrogantly.
âI havenât lost!â
To Katie, repentance was for the weak.
It was a sign of cowardice.
She felt she could decide the fates of others since she was a notch above the others.
âDonât worry.
You are going to lose now,â Mitchel said flatly.
His handsome face was filled with murderous intent.
Katie scoffed.
âWhat? You want to kill me? Mitchel, do you think Iâm stupid? I have plenty of bodyguards hidden around.
If you dare to do anything, you will be the first to die.
â
Mitchel reminded her kindly, âCall them out, then.
â
âFine! Youâre asking for it.
â Katie looked around and ordered, âEveryone, come out.
â
There was dead silence in the area.
Katie was confused.
She yelled, âEveryone, come out now!â
Still, there was no response.
No movements, either.
Katie was even more flustered.
She murmured, âWhere are they?â
She shouted, her voice tinged with panic, âEveryone, come the f@ck out!â
The answer was still silence.
Katie finally sensed something amiss.
She looked at Mitchel in disbelief.
âWhere are my people? What did you do to them?â
âThey are probably asleep,â Mitchel replied nonchalantly.
Katieâs eyes widened in shock.
âYou knocked down my men?â
Suddenly, she realized something even more crucial, something she should have thought about long ago.
âMitchel, what are you up to? What does this wedding mean? What conspiracy are you planning?â
Mitchel said calmly, âKatie, I have given you a chance.
â
âChance? What are you talking about?â Katie, frantic, grabbed Mitchelâs suit lapel, her face a mix of panic and fear.
âMitchel, what do you want to do?â
âWhy only ask now? Itâs too late,â Mitchel replied coldly.
There was a trace of mockery in his eyes.
âYou madman! Donât you want to live anymore?â Katie roared.
âCanât you see that I am the only one who can save you? If I die, you wonât survive either!â
âI know.
Mitchel paused, his dark eyes piercing.
âYou can save me, even if it means turning me into a brain-damaged, bedridden man.
â
