Dash’s back was slick with cold sweat, his face pale. When he saw the red potion being put away, he stumped to the ground like a deflated rag doll, all strength drained from him
Dash stammered. “A few years ago, we kidnapped Vivian. We knew she was the heiress of the Hart Corporation, but we didn’t do anything to
extreme to her. Ah-
Dash kept hemming and hawing. Reno finally lost her patience and drove her knife straight into the back of Dush’s hand.
Reno growled, “I don’t think he wants to talk, Miss Enna. Should I just finish him off?”
Upon seeing that this was no bluff, panic set in among the remaining thugs The men all started talking over each other in a panicked rush.
“We tortured her. We took off all her clothes and tied her to a chair
“With stun batons, some toys, and whips-
“W we even recorded videos
Sienna’s eyes burned crimson as she charged forward, her stiletto heel stomping down mercilessly on Dash’s groin and grinding with brutal force. “Give me the videod
Dash was writhing in agony, desperate just to stay alive. Nothing else mattered.
“Everything’s in the camera inside the cabinet, Dash gasped out desperately
Reno opened the cabinet to find it stuffed with cameras and memory cards. Beneath them lay a thick stack of photos, nothing but explicit images of young girls, their privacy shamelessly violated.
No one could stay calm seeing this
Reno roared furiously, “You filthy scum
Sienna took the camera labeled Vivian with trembling hands. As she started to open it, Lana reached out and placed her hand over Sienna’s gloved one. Even through the fabric, she could feel Sienna’s ice–cold fingers.
Lana gently placed her hand over Sienna’s “Miss Enna, save it for later”
Lana thought to herself, If Miss Enna watches from here, I’m afraid she might lose control and kill them. These scumbags aren’t even worth her personal attention”
Sienna’s crimson glare gradually cooled as she demanded coldly, “Who ordered you to kidnap Vivian
He continued, “I don’t know who it was Dash stammered, “Some masked person found the on a rainy night, handed me 30 thousand dollars, and told me to teach Vivian a lewon
“I couldn’t even tell if it was a man or a woman. Then this morning, when I got home, there was another 15,000 dollars on my table, along with a note telling me to make trouble for Vivian.
Sienna turned to leave, her voice icy. “Lana, make them suffer a fate worse than death”
“Understood, Miss Enna Lana nodded.
As Sienna’s car passed by a police cruiser, Reno, driving upfront, asked, “Miss Enna, are we heading to the hospital?”
Sienna finally opened the camera and saw its horrifying contents.
A few hours later, she lit a cigarette and stood at the hospital entrance, the night wrapping around her
Reside the car, she looked especially solitary and cold, the crimson ember of her cigarette flickering in the darkness as Reno waited quietly behind
Reno said, “Miss Enna, Anya reports that Miss Vivian has regained consciousness and is asking to see you”
“I know” Sienna stubbed out her cigarette, said, and turned to head inside.
Guilt coiled around her heart like countless black vines, choking its every beat, then snaked down to entangle her limbs, dragging her into a boundless sea of hatred.
Sienna fixed Keno with a cold, commanding look. “Reno, handle this”
When it came to beating someone up, Reno was the perfect choice. She might not be as versatile as Lana, but dealing with Aiden was well within her capabilities.
Vivian sat still on the hospital bed, knees drawn to her chest. Against her hair, her pale face looked almost translucent
