Chapter 117 The moment Eleanor saw Josef, her heart skipped a beat, and fear and tension Immediately filled her chest.
âMr. Caporal..
Her face turned pale with fright, and her voice trembled.
Seeing her so scared, Josel tilted his head slightly, âMs. Shultz, long time no see.â
Eleanor was shaking all over but she managed to keep her composure, âMr. Caporal, what brings you to the ladiesâ room to find me?â
Josef seemed to laugh, âNothing much, just wanted to thank you.â
He then removed the mask from his face, revealing a mouth sewn with over a dozen stitches.
The dense stitches looked horrifying, causing Eleanor to take a step back.
But Josef didnât seem to care, beckoning her with his finger, âCome here.â
Eleanor shook her head and turned to run towards the nearby washroom.
The two bodyguards who were following behind Josef, each holding an iron rod, immediately rushed forward upon seeing this. After blocking her escape, the guards grabbed her arms, one on each side, and brought her before Josef.
She was forced, in a humiliating posture, to kneel before him.
âYouâre still good at running, arenât you?â
Josef sneered, looking down at Eleanor with a cruel expression.
âBut where can you run to?â
He laughed, like a madman, and then fixed his vicious gaze back on her.
âAll because of you, my hands are ruined, my legs are crippled, even my mouth is destroyed. How should I thank you?â
By the end, his tone became heavier, as if he wanted to tear Eleanor to pieces.
Eleanor trembled in fear at his appearance.
âMr. Caporal, I donât understand.â
âDonât understand?â
Josef raised an eyebrow, and his smile became even more chilling and terrifying.
The night you gave me the contract, I encountered a group of people, their leader wearing a golden mask.â
âHe said something then, but I was in and out of consciousness due to the torture and didnât hear it clearly.â
âAfter regaining my senses, I tried hard to grasp that bit of memory, and luckily, I remembered.â
âGuess what he said?â
Josefâs casual tone, as if talking to an old friend, made Eleanor feel inexplicably creepy.
Especially when he mentioned the leader wearing a golden mask, she shuddered instinctively.
She had suspected before that the person torturing Josef was Mr. Law, and it turned out she was right.
Not knowing Josefâs purpose in suddenly bringing up Mr. Law, she pretended not to know and shook her head.
âI donât know..â
âDonât know?â
Josef looked disbelieving and then sneered.
âLet me tell youâ
He bent down and brought his sliced mouth close to Eleanorâs eyes, laughing as he said:
âHe said that Iâve hugged her, kissed her, and let her sit on my lap, so he had to punish me.â
âI thought carefully. The only person Iâve hugged, kissed, and let sit on my lap without doing anything else with is youâ
Upon hearing this, Eleanorâs face turned pale again.

No wonder Josef said he wanted to thank her and strangely brought up Mr. Law earlier.
It turned out that Mr. Lawâs words had made Josef suspect Eleanor was the mastermind behind everything.
