Chapter 1570


    Edmund was aghast. Odette''s behavior had left him entirely disappointed. He hade to the Dynasty


    hoping that his childhood sweetheart would be the only person in this world who might still stand by


    him, but right now, he was forced to reconcile with the fact that whatever attachments they had were all


    y-pretend.


    He had worshiped the ground she walked on and cherished her like no other, but not once had she


    ever been true to him.


    Hatred and hurt shed in his eyes as he growled through gritted teeth, "Why should I have to


    apologize when Odette''s the one who wronged me first? None of this is my fault, so why do I have to


    lower myself to beg for her forgiveness? She''s the one who should be saying sorry!"


    As he snapped, he struggled wildly to break free of Julian''s hold. However, he was no match for Julian,


    whose vise-like grip around his wrist made it impossible for him to pull away.


    At the sight of Edmund''s haplessness, Odette scowled in disdain.


    Julian, on the other hand, snorted as he said maliciously, "I know things have been hard for you since


    the tragedy that struck your family, Edmund, but I didn''t think you''d go insane over it! Poor little


    Edmund."


    Everyone in the lounge sniggered at the insult he hurled at Edmund.


    Furious, Edmund seethed, "You''re the one who''s insane!"


    There was a menacing gleam in Julian''s eyes as he doubled down on Edmund''s wrist, filling the air


    with the sound of thetter''s bones cracking. Overwhelmed by the intense pain that shot through his


    arm, Edmund was forced to go even lower, his knees almost grazing the ground.


    Julian''s gaze was insidious, and he did not stop twisting Edmund''s wrist as he barked, "Kneel and beg


    now!" He tightened his grip, practically pushing Edmund onto the ground.


    But Edmund gritted his teeth and refused to cave even when his body was inclined to. He was forcing


    himself to stay as upright as possible. No matter what happened, he would never apologize to Odette.


    Angered, Julian put his full force into twisting Edmund''s arm. If thetter refused toply, then his


    wrist would be snapped.


    s, Edmund was a prideful man despite his sorry circumstances. He clenched his jaw and braced


    through the pain. He would much rather die than cave into Julian''s tyrannical ways.


    The tension went on, and suddenly, a loud crack resonated through the lounge. Edmund''s arm had


    dislocated entirely!


    His face scrunched up in agony, but he was still half-standing and showing no signs of wanting to


    Upon seeing this, Julian grew even more outraged. Right now, Edmund was nothing more than a piece


    of trash to him, and having a piece of trash retaliate against him this way was borderline humiliation.


    "Tougher than you look, huh? You piece of shit! I’d like to see just how long you can go on like this!"


    With that, he kicked Edmund''s knees and roared, "Get on your knees!"


    Edmund thought his kneecaps might be shattered from the kick, but he still clung to the edge of the

    table to hold himself upright.


    Even as warm blood trickled down Edmund''s temples, he remained standing.


    Just then, Odette took a chair from the side and struck it against the back of Edmund''s legs. "Obey


    Julian, you scumbag!"


    Staggering from the impact, Edmund nearly fell to his knees, but he braced his weight against the table


    and did not back down. Content of Draм??ovels
