Valen turned to Rex and enunciated frantically, “You see that?” he pointed his finger at the door. “She
hates me to the extent she wants me dead!”
Rex nodded, “it seems that’s the case. She hates you, little nephew.” He turned his lips downward in a
sad pout.
“Then why would father still marry her? It’s clear that she was sent here by the enemies.” Valen looked
at Rex in rm.
Rex looked bunimed out. He nced at Valen before he walked to sit on Valen’s light blue king-sized
bed and shook his head.
“She is not an enemy, but a friend. We cannot offend her, you’ll get to understand that in the future.”
Rex understood what Jeslyn was ying at, so he decided to have fun. What would be greater than
watching this quiet and boring house descend into chaos?
“B- but she just threatened me!”
“You know what to do to ruin her ns, don’t you? Do the opposite of what she wants, that’s how to
infuriate your enemies to death. Learn from me and stop listening to Mn.”
“No, Mn is a good person.”
Rex shrugged his shoulders and opened his hands. Valen isn’t attached to anyone but he has a soft
spot for Mn.
Valen bit his cute pink lips while debating. After struggling for a long time, he finally said, “bring the
food.”
Rex raised his head with widened eyes. “D- did you say to bring the food?”
“Should I change my mind?”
“No, no, of course not.” Rex beamed and hurried off to the kitchen. (1)
While leaving, he turns from time to time to make sure it wasn’t an illusion.
Valen had never done what he said he wouldn’t do even if the world was ending. How much does he
loathe Jeslyn? His animosity towards her must be overwhelming.
“I knew there was a reason behind my brother bringing home a wife. It turned out he already calcted
everything. No wonder he doesn’t interfere. Hahaha… Good move brother. I hope Jeslyn would be able
to help Valen.” Rex soliloquized while walking along the passage.
Meanwhile, inside a well-lit dungeon, Maverick could be seen sitting on a chair with three people in the
cell. Two men in ck were standing at both sides of a young man hung on the wall with chains
attached to his limbs.
The chained man was stark naked in front of Maverick who had one long leg over the other.
The chained young man’s body looked fresh and clean. There was no sign of torture or anything except
for the injuries left on his limbs by the chains.
Maverick unfolded his leg and leaned forward, “spill it,” he said.

If his voice used to be deep and viinous, his voice right now was worse. It sends chills down a
person’s spine.
“Master, I… I know nothing about it.” The man chained to the wall said in a raspy voice. He knew he
was going to die, so why would he give out the secret that has been giving him power for so long?
Thanks to this secret, he was able to form his own faction that was slowly rising under his boss’ nose.
“Drill faction… Celine,” Maverick let out.
Hearing his faction’s name and his lover being mentioned, the man turned ferocious and forcefully
pulled at the chains.
“You dare not touch them!!” He roared.
“Bang!”
“Ahh!”
Getting shot on his stretched-out naked thigh, the young man screamed and groaned in pain.
He wanted to fall to the ground and hold his thigh that was shot, but because his hands and legs were
spread across the wall, he couldn’t move, which intensified the pain from the bullet wound.
The more he tried to move, the tighter the chains became, so he stopped moving. Besides, there was
nothing he could do anymore since he had struggled to the extent that his limbs were almost tearing
apart.
How could he have forgotten that nobody raises their voice at Maverick without getting their tongue
ripped out? It was obvious that he was still useful and that was why the two men standing beside him
didn’t rip out his tongue like the chained man used to rip out their enemies’ tongues.
“Spill it,” Maverick repeated.
“I don’t know! I only received orders from the phone.” He screamed in frustration. He had been asked
that question multiple times by his two friends standing beside him and he had told them times without
numbers that he had no idea. What else does Master Maverick want?
He would rather die than say it. If he’s dead, the money he left behind can be used by his girlfriend. He
was sure that his master wouldn’t care about Celine. He only called her name to threaten him.
“Bang
“Ah!!” He howled in pain as he twisted on the chains, provoking the chains to tighten around his limbs
and stretch him even more. His body had long been covered in sweat and some parts of his body had
turned red from being stretched for a long time.
“Bath him and get rid of his existence,” Maverickmanded before he got up and walked out.
“Yes, master!” The two men said with a bow.
“N-no, no, no, please! I’ll tell you everything, please I’m Sorry! Forgive me! No, please, don’t do this, we
are friends, tenth brother, second brother, please don’t listen to master, Spare my people, my Celine,
please!”
He begged hysterically but none of the two paid attention to him. One of them went out of the dungeon
and the other nced at the chained young man with sweaty skin and shook his head.

“Fourth brother, you should have known better than anyone else what master hated the most. You
knowingly sold out information to his rivals and not just that, you are one of those who did that to him 7
years ago.
You even had the guts to stop his investigation. Fourth brother, your liver is huge. You knew that
meddling in his investigation would hinder his search, yet you did it without dread. Who gave you the
mind to go against master?
Was it the Yu family, or the Xu family? It can only be one of them.
Anyway, don’t worry about Celine. She is also one of the existence that master wants to be erased. I’ll
take charge of her. I have always had my eyes on her for a long time and I can’t wait to hear her
screaming under me before she dies.
Ahh, I wonder what it would feel like to bang that girlfriend of yours. Tell me, does she like rubbers or
raw?”
