Chapter 574
As blood gushed out of the wound, I gritted my teeth to withstand the racking sensation I felting
from my arms and withdrew the dagger.
Wesley is against the idea of setting us free since he has his doubts. In order to convince him, I need to
prove I’m telling the truth.

“Eve!” Christopher rushed over to my side to support me when I was about to fall.
“I’m fine!” I managed a smile. For the first time, I was brimming with the confidence that I must bring
Christopher out of here, alive.
I turned around and warned Wesley, “I’m pretty sure you’re going to have it tough if I’m dead! What do
you think he’s going to do if he figures out you’re trying to take out his sole sessor over something
trivial? You better take the consequences of your actions into considerations!”
As Wesley remained silent, I stabbed myself in the arms once more without holding back. I was
impressed as blood continued gushing out of the wound as if there was an endless supply of it in my
system. To be precise, I was surprised I was still conscious at that point in time.
ring at Wesley in the eyes, I licked the blood staining my lips off and asked, “Is that enough to prove
myself yet?”
Out of the blue, I stabbed myself in the arm onest time in an attempt to force him into submission
since it was my only chance to make it out alive with the rest of the party.
“On the count of three, if you think it’s not enough, I’ll stab myself in the heart and see if luck is on your
side or my side!” I raised my volume and spilled some of my blood in his direction.
As a result, he staggered and gaped in disbelief.
“One! Two! Three!” At the end of the countdown, I knew I had to do it to prove myself. Otherwise, he
would get suspicious and think it was nothing more than a bluff.
In the nick of time, he broke the silence and stopped me from stabbing myself. He was impressed as it
was written all over his face. “You’re quite something else, Ms. Goldstein! To be honest, there’s no way
Nathan’s capable of giving birth to such a courageous daughter!”
“If that’s the case, can you instruct them to leave us alone?” I was on the verge of passing out, but I
knew I had to pull myself together until we were safe.
He took the blood-stained dagger away from me and ran his fingers across it, announcing with a smirk,
“It turns out a woman is as capable as a man in times of emergencies! Tell your men to leave us alone,
John!”
“Thank you so much!” I couldn’t stop myself from grinning since I had finally made it when it might be
just another bluff.
“Sir, we can’t afford to set Christopher free since he’s a member of the special force! Otherwise, he’s
going toe after Mr. Goldstein in the future!” John got in our way and tried to stop us from leaving.
Wesleyunched another powerful kick at John and bellowed, “Stop getting full of yourself and yelling
at me! Get out of my sight and stop causing me more troubles!”
I couldn’t even walk without others’ support since I had to lie in an attempt to keep the rest of the party
safe. Horrified by the things awaiting us once they figured out the truth, I thought I was about to pass
out again.
I waspletely drenched in sweat as we continued marching our way through the ones surrounding
us. All of a sudden, I caught a glimpse of John reaching for his gun and pulling the trigger.
Bam!
