Chapter 1566


    "Jane, I''m not toying with you. I never did. Do you believe me?" Alex said regretfully.


    Jane snorted after a pause. "Is... Is that even possible?" She lifted her head to look at Alex


    with her nk eyes before looking back at herself. "The two of US might as well be as


    different as the sky and the ground. I was just taken to you, all chained up like a dog as


    some sort of trophy, and now you are asking me to go home with you? This time, it is dog


    chains. What''s going to be next? oh, right, where is your wife, Lily Parker? She... She isn''t


    here with you?"


    "Mrs. Poole, you are the Mrs. Poole," Garrett, who had just cut off the chains on Jane, said


    as he choked back his tears.


    Jane slowly turned to look at Garrett.


    "Mrs. Poole, it''s Garrett. You remember me, don''t you? That time on the mountain, I was


    the one who let you and Mr. Hill go. I''m the same Garrett whose wife and house you once


    visited in Master Alex’s stead, Mrs. Poole," he said.


    Jane''s expression remained nk, with much resemnce to a patient in an asylum.

    Jane turned her gaze back to Alex. Whoever Garrett was, what did that have to do with her


    anyways?


    She called out to him in a hoarse voice, "Alex, the truth is, whatever tricks or ys you


    want to use on me, it''s fine as long as you and your wife are satisfied. I only have one


    request: don''t harm the innocents. The olddy is already seventy this year. Let her go so


    that she can at least beg on the streets, okay? she has nothing to do with me. Her son


    saved me, and I insisted on spending the rest of my life with her son, but now her son is


    dead! Just--" Tears immediately started streaming down Jane''s face. "Just murdered


    unjustly in the wild with no one to even collect his body. It''s just one olddy, she wouldn''t


    have the strength to take revenge even if she wanted to. Let her go and live out her life,


    okay? If you could just do that, you can do anything you want to me. I... I can even think of


    new ways to torture me for you." 2


    Jane''s expression suddenly brightened up as though she hade up with a way to save


    the old mother. "Really, Alex, really. I can help youe up with ways for you to torture


    me."


    Perhaps it was because she had spent her life under the suppression of others from a


    young age, Jane had gotten so used to it that she could be more creative than others when


    it came to torturing methods. People might say that she was born a ve, or that she had


    been raised as a ve, but none of that mattered. Her eyes sparkled as she hurriedly


    presented to Alex with her idea, "How about this, Alex. You... You and your fiancee, you

    both can sit in the garden and watch me, watch as they cut me open for the abortion. Is


    that okay? Would that be able to appease the hatred you and your wife feel toward me?"


    Jane said. Each word was pronounced so distinctly that they were like nails hammered into


    Alex''s heart.


    He did not argue with her, but instead waited for her to finish because he wanted to feel the


    pain. Only then, would he know the pain that his wife, the only woman he had loved in his


    life, had been suffering through. Because of a wrong decision that he made recklessly, his


    wife came so close to facing death, and was chained up like a dog. The pain was dull and


    suffocating, to that point that he felt like he was taking all his organs out just so that he


    could breathe.


    "Jane," his voice had only grown more hoarse. He felt helpless, but no matter how helpless


    he felt, he had to exin.
