Chapter 75
Kylie urgently asked, “What will it take for you to let him go? I’ll agree to anything!”
If this went
ten any longer, Owen might die in Samuel’s hands.
M
The Vance family had deep ties to both the political and business worlds, so they had influence in both legal and underground circles too. If Samuel wanted someone dead, it would be as effortless as crushing an ant
His expression was dark and cold as he pressed against Owen’s face with his leather shoe. His gaze shifted to Kylie, loclding onto her in silence.
After a few seconds of thought, she said, “I know you don’t want to marry me. How about this you let him go, and I’ll continue treating Mr. Vance Senior, but won’t force you into this marriage ammbore.
“Don’t worry. I’ll do everything I can to cure him.”
Do you get to decide when it starts and when it ends?” Samuel let out a cold laugh. “Do you think the world works that way? Do you think I work that way?”
Kylie took a deep breath, fear tightening in her chest
“You’ll do anything for him, huh?” Samuel’s handsome face remained emotionless save for a tinge of mockery.
“Yes” Kylie nodded.
It was enough for her to be trapped in this abyss–she couldn’t drag Owen down with her.
But the moment she answered Samuel, his face darkened even further.
What do you want me to do for you to let him go?” she asked again.
“Strip”
That single word rang in her ears, and she froze in disbelief. “What did you say?”
“Didn’t you catch that?” Samuel’s voice remained icy, “I only believe what I see. If you clalan that nothing happened between you two, then prove it.” Kylle stood rooted to the spot.
We didn’t do anything. How do you expect us to prove Owen’s eyes bumed red with anger. “What kind of iman humiliates a woman? If you have a problem, take it out on me!”
Samuel said nothing. He simply pressed his foot down harder on Owen’s face, grinding it into the dirt. It looked as if he could crush his skull at any
For the first time ever, Kylie believed that Samuel might actually be as terrifying as the rumors said he was.
She bit her lip hard as she said, “Fine! I’ll strip!”
With that, she shrugged off her jacket.
Logan immediately tumed away out of respect. Meanwhile, Owen was still pinned to the ground and could only see Kylie from the knees down Samuel’s face darkened even more. His expression shifted like a storm brewing on the horizon when he realized what she was doing.
Cut Kylie didn’t notice his change in expression and reached to remove another layer.
“That’s enough “Samuel’s sharp voice cut through the alt. “You can do that for me in private.”
Before she could react, he strode over in a few quick steps, seized her wrist, and dragged her away down the mountain.
Kylie was stunned for a moment before quickly snapping back, “Where are you taking me? I haven’t collected the Purple Frost Root yet!” However, Samuel ignored her, pulled herstraight into the parking lot, and shoved her into the car
At the next second, his body loomed over hers and pressed her down into the seat.
A dangerous air engulfed Kylie, and before she could fully register Samuel’s fury, his lips crashed down onto hers, stealing her breath away.
It was a kiss filled with rage, devoid of any tenderness.
Kylie’s mind went blank. It wasn’t until she heard Samuel’s cold voice that she snapped back to reality.
“No one but you has ever dared to defy me like this again and again.” His fierce gaze bore into hers. “Kylie, do you think that just because you have medical skills and can treat my grandfather; I won’t dare to touch you?”
“No.” Kylie lifted her head and met his boming state. “You’re a man of immense power and are capable of toppling nations over with a single hand. Killing me would be as easy at crushing anant. How could I possibly cross the line?”
Her attractive eyes shimmered like autumn water, clear and bright. Her long, dark lashes fluttered like feathers, lightly grazing his heart.
Suddenly, Samuel felt an irresistible force that sent a ripple through his soul.
