In fact, as Byron carried Nydia into the room, stripped her of her clothes, molested and humiliated her
She had flickers of consciousness throughout the ordeal. But she was unable to move, unable to open her eyes, and utterly unable to
resist
The state of helplessness made it all the much crueler.
She would have rather beenpletely unconscious or perhaps it would have been better to just dhe, to end it all,
Embedded in her thoughts, Nydia’s eyes were flooded with tears. She opened wide as she let out a despondent moan, struggling in
Jason’s embrace.
“Don’t touch me, please, don’t!”
“Nydia! Look at me. Can you see who I am? Jason, with tears glistening in his eyes, embracing her with his whole being.
It felt like his chest had been savagely cut open by a blunt knife, his aching heart forcibly extracted and grasped tightly, to the point of nearly being crushed.
Hearing the familiar voice, a flicker of light passed through Nydia’s stagnant gaze.
She stared straight at Jason, first in disbelief, then tentatively and cautiously whispered, “Jason?”
Jason choked up, unable to speak, simply nodding over and over.
“What happened?” Startled, Nydia stared at his blood–stained left eye. In that moment, her own safety was a distant thought–her sole concern was for her beloved.
Evadne’s eyes gleamed with a fiery crimson, her chest heaving with rage.
Why must this loving couple endure such torment? For what transgression were they forced to bear such merciless anguish?
At that moment, the anger of Evandne surged, directed entirely at Emeric
While Byron was despicable, if it hadn’t been Emeric’s insistence on Nydia’s marriage to Avery, Byron wouldn’t have yed such d*rty tricks on <b>Nydial </b>
Byron had been indifferent to Nydia before, but now he suddenly showed her excessive attention, even using such d*rty tricks.
Was it not all to y up to the Ashboume family and gain power over the Chambers Group, using her sister as a pawn? What else could it be?
the
as the true instigator
Emeric was
“It’s <b>okay</b>. I’m fine. <b>Nydia</b>, I’ll take you away.”
Tears mixed with blood fell from Jason’s face as he c
could think of nothing else but to flee with her.
He tried to lift her, but Nydia resisted, pushing him away.
“Let’s break up, Jason.”
Jason was stunned, staring nkly at her pale face, “Nydia. I forbid you to say that. I’d rather die than break up with you!”
“Let’s break up. I’m tainted.”
Nydia’s attempt at a smile pierced his heart, “I’m no longer worthy of you, Jason.”
“Don’t talk nonsense. How could my Nydia be ever tainted!”
Jason wept bitterly, emphatically stressing each word, “My Nydia is the most perfect girl in the world. No matter what, I will always love you.”
Nydia slowly shook her head, her decision made, “if 1 stay with you like this, I could never forgive myself. You deserve someone better. Don’t waste your time on me. It’s not worth it”
Evadne turned away, her eyes bloodshot. As she fiercely wiped her tears, she scanned the room for a weapon, only spotting <b>a </b><b>vase</b>.
She grabbed the vase’s n*eck and smashed it against the wall-
Shards flew, leaving only the jagged, sharp n*eck in her hand.
“Byron, you murderous beast! I’ll castrate you!”
Evadne, her eyes wild with anger, advanced on Byron, whoy on the floor like a pathetic creature.
In his panic, Byron let out a shrill, ludicrous scream, followed by a trickle of urine slowly staining the carpet.
The once arrogant and domineering Byron was now utterly terrified.
As Evadne mised the makeshift weapon, Thaddeus’s hand closed over her trembling wrist.
“Are you trying to stop me?”
Evadne, panting heavily, tried to pull her wrist from his scorching gnp. “Don’t give me that nonsense about staying calm! He hurt my sister, and not even Jell can save him now!‘
Im not stopping you. I feel the same with you,” Thaddeus sighed, his voice soft and coaxing.
His palm slowly glided up, gently taking the shard from her, “I just don’t want you to d*rty your hands, much less <b>get </b>yourself hurt”
Evadne pressed her l*ps tightly together, her rationality returning
Thaddeus’s eyes were dark and chilling, his fingers clenched tightly, and with a ‘snap, there was a crisp sound-
Evadne watched as he effortlessly crushed the n*eck of the vase to powder!
So fierce! So cool! Just so badass!
But didn’t that hurt hands?
Thaddeus casually dusted off his hands, blowing away the remaining dust, “Handling you requires no such effort. With a flick of my fingers, I could snap your n*eck, and with a nudge of my foot, I could crush your spine”
“Thaddeus, Evadne. You dare <b>touch </b>me?”
Unable to stand, Byron could only smack the floor in desperation, “if I’m harmed, my father and my brother won’t let <b>you </b>off! You’re done!”
“That’s just perfect. I’ve been itching to take down the Chambers family in their ce for a while, and now I’ve finally got <b>the </b>chance.”
Evadne gritted her teeth, stepping down hard on Byron’s hand with her stiletto heel, pinning him like a nail, causing him to scream in Joony.
“You asking for it, and I’m just sharpening my knife with you. Next is Bertha! You’re all in it together, and none of you will escape!”
Bertha<b>? </b>
Could it be that Evadne had already uncovered their secret plot against Nydia?
More frightened of exposure than of facing their wrath, Byron scrambled to defend himself, “Evadne! Why don’t you use your brain and think! To get your sister, would I go as <b>low </b>as to employ such despicable means? My father has already told me in private that I will marry Nydia, whether she likes it or not, she’ll have to many me in the end! Why would I need to scheme? Besides, tonight, I did want to get closer to her tonight, but she was quite forward with me too! She seemed drunk, <b>could </b>hardly stand, so I went over to give her a hand. She clung to me tightly, smiling and k*ssing me.”
Nydia was shaking with fury!
But how could she exin? She had been powerless at that timel
Jason was hysterical, yelling <b>at </b>him<b>, </b><b>“</b><b>You’re </b>lying! You forced Nydia! <b>You </b>rapist!”
“If you guys made it here, you must’ve checked the surveince! It’s all in the footage, crystal clear- how Nydia threw herself at me, I didn’t force her at all! Even if you go to the cops, you’ve got no evidence I vited her!”
<b>Byron </b>was smug, certain they had no proof, a malicious grin spreading across his face. “She was already my fiancée, and she was all over me. I thought she wanted to seal the deal with me, you know, to try out my “bedroom skills.”
Thaddeus’s brows furrowed deeply, <b>his </b>foot grinding into the his spine.
With a sickening crunch, Bryon’s tailbone snapped!
Evadne wished she could smash her stiletto through Byron’s skull, “<b>Nydia </b>doesn’t even drink, how could she <b>be </b>drunk? You must have drugged her you sl*pped something in her drink!”
“Evadne Do you have proof?” Byron gasped between chuckles
He was so tortured he looked ghastly, he had nothing to lose and was prepared to fight to the bitter end.
Just as Evadne was seething with rage, a chilling voice cut through the tension.
“Byron, do you really think you’ve covered your tracks perfectly?”
The captivating voice was from Casu
With a thud, something big rolled into the room like a bowling ball, apanied by agonized howls.
It was Byron’sckey–his secretary!
Byron shuddered, his heart pounding as if it might <b>break </b>through the floorboards.
“I beg for mercy. Please. I’m begging you.”
The secretary’s face was twisted, his b*dy tied up like a hogtied pig, his <b>limbs </b>dangling unnaturally.
His tendons had all been cut!
The handiwork was familiar–it was the Big Brother’s doing<b>. </b>
And the man who followed him in was strikingly handsome, his narrow, foxy eyes mesmerizing..
“Ah, this family. How could they manage without me?”mented Chasel Bright, fiis handsome face wore a rare look of concern.
It turned out that the Bright family, known for their top–notch medical empire, had also received an invitation that evening.
Only, the Bright family’s head had been resenting the fact his favorite daughter Suri had been Emeric’s mistress without proper recognition, so for years, they <b>had </b>avoided any event involving the Ashboume family
They couldn’t afford the scandal.
But tonight, the invitation was direct from the J <b>Group</b>, which they couldn’t easily decline. Hearing that Chasel was back in the country, they sent him to make up the numbers.
Chasel, of course, was thrilled toe–he longed to see his lover, missing him every moment of the day.
But he hadn’t expected to walk into such a “bustling scene. Considering himself Evadne’s “big sister–inw, of course he had to step in for them.
Cassius gave Chasel a look, which said “I can’t deal with you” and then turned his cold gaze back to the human hogtie” on the <b>floor</b>.
“Shall you tell, or shall I say it for you?”
The secretary chattered his teeth together, too scared to speak–he couldn’t afford to offend either side.
Just as Cassius was about to intimidate him further, Chasel took over as his spokesman, his voicezy but threatening, “Our President Ashbourne has quite the temper, as you’ve just experienced. Speak for yourself, or let him exin‘ for you–the experiences are worlds apart
All of a sudden, his eyes curved slightly. If you’re so loyal to your boss, we’ll amodate that. After all, my scalpel is much cleaner and quicker than President Ashboume’s dagger, so you shouldn’t feel too much pain.”
Til talk!”
The secretary couldn’t bear the pressure<b>, </b>and spilled the beans, “Mr. Chambers couldn’t <b>win </b>over Ms. Nydia, he <b>was </b>so b
bitter, so, he made me get some kind of liquid ecstasy to make Ms. Nydiapliant and it leaves no trace!”
“Liquid ecstasy? What’s that?” Thaddeus’s handsome face was marred by a frown.
“Its scientific name is GHB, also known as ‘Gamma–Hydroxybutyrate‘ or ‘high G
Chasel’s expression darkened, “An overdose can make a person unconscious, extremely dizzy, disoriented, and nauseous. GHB acts quickly, peaking within ten to fifteen minutes, leaving the victimpletely at the mercy of others,pletely unaware of what’s happening.”
Upon hearing this, Cassius felt a chill run down his spine, and Evadne and Thaddeus exchanged nces, feeling the blood run cold!
“You son of a b*tch, you dare nder me? I’ll ughter you!”
Byron red at the secretary, and if it hadn’t been for Thaddeus pinning him down, he would have lunged to bite off the turncoat’s tongue.
“Nydia, did you <b>drink </b>something they gave you? Jason gripped Nydia’s slender shoulder anxiously, fearing for her health if she had been drugged.
Nydia’s head was splitting, her tearful eyes lost in confusion, “I didn’t. Tonight, I only had a ss of juice with my sister nothing else. I didn’t touch anything.”
“Haha, Hahaha!”
Byron let out a hystericalugh, pounding the ground with his fists, “Do you have any proof? You’ve got nothing! As I told you, it was this woman who threw herself at me! It was <b>she </b>who debased herself!”
