Chapter 19 She’s worse than a slave
The villa of the Howard family.
Luke is standing in the living room, his face clouds and he walks back and forth, his eyes filled with worry.
What is the matter? When Leo Howard goes downstairs, he sees his friend Luke and could not help asking.
Luke, looking at Leo Howard in front of him, pauses for a long time before he says, “What about Claire Bennett? If you send her to a place like that, she will be dangerous!”
Leo Howard frowns slightly, not surprised Luke knows about it, but smiles softly, “Well... if it were not unexpected, I am afraid she has already been bought.”
“Leo, she is your wife anyway... and there is never an end of taking revenge, she is innocent.” Luke frowns.
He doesn’t object to Leo Howard marrying Claire Bennett, he just doesn’t approve of the way he retaliates and hurts Claire Bennett for the last generation, especially now that he has sent Claire Bennett to the auction, and Luke cannot help her.
“Wife? Ha! That is just a reason for imprisoning and torturing her. She doesn’t even look like a slave to me!” Leo Howard says coldly, lighting a cigar and taking a swig.
“Leo, how can you...” Luke doesn’t even know how to persuade his friends.
“You do not think I really wanted to marry her, do you? It is just a contract. Do not forget, torturing her is my real purpose!” Amid the smoke, Leo Howard’s handsome face gleams, his eyes glints and his words contains a deep hatred, “I hate her mother, so I want revenge. I will slowly torture her!”
Leo Howard’s temper, what he had decided, is futile, and Luke, knowing he could not stop him, sighs, “Well, I do not care about you or her, but you better be nice to her.”
“Be good to her? She doesn’t deserve it! Do not do with my business, just deal with your own business!” says Leo Howard, smiling to Luke.
Luke ignores the words of Leo Howard and suddenly thinks of something, and whispers, “Oh, right, the woman you told me you met at the hotel the other day, I have got news for you.”
“What news?” Leo Howard is startled, and a glimmer of joy appears in his eyes. He could not wait to ask. His men had not heard from her for so long but Luke had found out.
Seeing the change in Leo Howard’s eyes, Luke heaves a sigh again, taking out the wrapped photo envelope in his arms and hands it over, saying, “These are the photos taken from the monitor. Look. I am leaving.” Luke says and goes out.
“All right.” Leo Howard answers. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
When Luke is far away, Leo Howard returns to the living room. He picks up the envelope on the table and tries to open it. Suddenly the maid calls out in surprise.
“My lady?!”
Leo Howard’s hand jerks up in surprise.
This woman can still come back! Did not they all go to the auction?!
The auctioneers are all dead, and this woman gets away?!
Leo Howard sees Claire Bennett in a strange pose and comes in very discomfited...
