Chapter 510


    Chapter 510 Troy was Caught


    “Anything on your mind?” questioned Hendrey as he gazed at Veronica. She came back to her senses.


    “Oh, nothing. I was just wondering who would dare to intrude Princess Antheena’s territory. He must


    have a death wish.”


    Everyone knew who that person was. And now, she was more certain than ever about one thing—Xavier


    took her to the attic to tell her that her little secret was discovered. It was also a warning that whoever


    intruded the castle could never escape.


    Last night, Thomas sent out a rescue team upon receiving her message. However, that voice did not


    belong to Matthew nor Thomas. Then, who could it be? They won’t make such a big fuss over a small fry,


    though.


    “Who else? Of course it’s Matthew’s confidant, Troy,” Xavier responded. It was not until then did Veronica


    realize that the familiar voice belonged to Thomas’ elder brother—Troy! He came to save Matthew under


    Thomas’ arrangement, but he fell into a trap.


    “Oh, is it?” She was on tenterhooks as she forced a smile. “Foolish. He can’t even save Matthew out of


    here. Useless.”


    “I know right. He’s so useless, but we should make the best use out of him. It should be his honor to


    have the chance to entertain me,” said Antheena while looking at her cards. “Let me see which one I


    should ce forward. This one. Six of Clubs.”


    “My little princess is getting better at this, huh?” Hendrey shed her a smile that was so gentle it felt like


    he was a loving brother. His gaze always alternated between Antheena and Xavier. He seldom looked at


    Veronica.

    Unsurprisingly, Antheena won the round again.


    “Lucky me.” Sheughed while motioning the bodyguard toe over.


    He approached her with the lottery box, and she took another ball before tossing it to another bodyguard.


    The bodyguard took a glimpse at the number. “It’s eleven, Young Mistress.”


    Following that, he ryed the message through the walkie-talkie. “Eleven.”


    The shriek echoed throughout the basement, drowning the sound of shuffling cards and sending chills to


    whoever had heard it.


    “This is so fun!” Antheena pped her hands in joy.


    Veronica was astonished to see how hypocritical Antheena could be. It was obvious that she was a cold-


    blooded woman with no mercy, yet she could still act innocent like how she was right now. The fact that


    she did not even bat an eye at her cruel acts horrified Veronica greatly.


    “Kai, draw the curtains open. That way we can enjoy the show as we y.” She ordered the bodyguard,


    who was holding the walkie-talkie.


    Kai passed on the message and the curtains that were blocking the view to the interrogation room were


    soon drawn. Veronica could clearly see how Troy was tied up and beaten to a bloody pulp. Even so, the


    card game continued.


    Though, Veronica was not in the mood to y at all. For the next few rounds, there would only be new


    punishments awaiting Troy regardless of whoever won the game. In other words, she was here to watch


    Troy being punished.


    “Veronica, are you tired? Why don’t we y another game? Truth or Dare.” Antheena tapped her head


    and contemted. “Whoever wins will throw a question. If that person tells the truth, there will be no


    punishment, but if it’s a lie, then he has to be punished. How about that?”


    “As long as you’re happy.” Hendrey went along.


    Xavier held her chin and gave her a kiss on the lips. “If you want it.”


    Antheena smiled in delight. “Veronica, what about you?”


    Veronica remained silent as she thought, I don’t think that’s a good idea, but what can I say?


    “As you wish,” she said nothing more than those three words.


    Another round of card game ended. With Xavier and Hendrey working together, Antheena won the game


    once again. She grabbed the walkie-talkie from Kai and said, “He’s Matthew’s right-hand man, isn’t he?


    Ask him. Why did Matthew and Veronica break up?”


    Her gaze fixated on Veronica as she spoke while her beady eyes flickered like a sly fox. It was then that


    Veronica realized that the punishments up until now were merely an ‘appetizer’ before the ‘main course’.


    The person in the room repeated Antheena’s words to Troy, who then answered weakly, “I-I don’t know.”


    It looked like he had to use every ounce of strength in him just to say those three words.


    “Do you really not know or is it because you don’t wanna say it? I don’t have much patience here,”


    Antheena spoke over the walkie-talkie without averting her gaze from Veronica.


    Veronica’s gaze swept over Antheena, and she looked into the interrogation room to witness Troy being


    punished with various kinds of cruel punishment.


    As she watched on, she could feel the chill running down her spine, as well as the excruciating pain, as if


    she was the one getting punished instead.
