Chapter 354 Fury
“If you beg a little, I might consider setting you free, considering you’re still just a young girl,” Jim proposed.
Maria remained silent.

Aren’t you the one who claims your father loves “you the most? Aren’t you afraid of hurting him if you perish?” Jim prodded.
Maria suddenly exploded, “Don’t mention my father! If you want to end me, just do it.”

Jim smirked. “Disappointed with dear old dad, huh? With such a fiery spirit, was it him who molded you, with no interference from your mother?”
Maria’s expression darkened instantly, as if Jim had struck a raw nerve. She issued a chilling warning.
“Don’t bring up my mother!”
Engaging in negotiations with Jim, who had cast off his facade to reveal his true nature, posed a formidable challenge.
With a soft chuckle, Jim pulled out a chair and settled into it. Crossing his legs comfortably, he leaned back casually, fingers interlocked.
Though his tone remained light, his words carried a deliberate edge.
“Forgive me, I have a knack for striking where it stings, especially with adversaries. To truly end someone, you must hit them where it counts.”
He presented himself as a gentleman, yet he harbouredthe instincts of a predator.
Under Maria’s unwavering scrutiny, Jim began to casually probe her emotions.
“What became of your mother? Given that you’re your father’s favorite, he must have cherished your
mother as well”
“Is she no longer with us, or did she part ways with your father? Or perhaps she left you both behind?”
“Shut it!
“Ah, I see. Bad case, isn’t it? I know a thing or two about your family. Your father seems to have a harem of his own. Is your mother part of it?”
“Stop talking!”
“Did a concubine do her in while she tried to get your father’s attention? Or did he slit her throat because she killed someone else?”
Jim was a lawyer and also a licensed psychologist. He studied Maria’s eyes closely, analyzing the subtle shifts in her expressions.
At the mention of the last scenario, Maria’s demeanor flickered.

the situation both appalling and callous. Nonetheless, he persisted.
“Did your father feed her to the leopards?”

His words landed on Maria like a curse, tearing open her heart and seizing her nerves.
Maria lapsed into silence abruptly, her gaze fixed ahead as if her very soul had been wrenched away.
Sensing something amiss with Maria, Jim eventually retreated from his beastly demeanour to his usual
self.
Jim wanted to wake her from her stupor.
However, as if seized by something otherwordly, Maria screamed.
The look on Jim’s face changed abruptly. He couldn’t even cover his cars.
As if slipping into a nightmarish memory, all Maria could see was the dark moment of that traumatic day. Her pupils were dilated, her eyes filled with terror.
Hearing the scream, the guards came rushing in. “Mr. Jim!” Jim ignored them and shot up to check on Maria. “What’s wrong?”
No answer.
There were only screams.
“Hey! Hey, are you okay?”
“Hey, you! Mad lady! You alright in there?”
Jim’s gentle tap on Mariah’s cheek went unnoticed as she continued to scream, oblivious to his presence, casting an unsettling atmosphere over the room
Swiftly, Jim instructed his men to summon Isabelle..
Upon Isabelle’s timely arrival, she swiftly administered an injection to Mariah, inducing a calming effect.
Jim, observing the now unconscious Mariah, turned to Isabelle inquiring. “How is she faring?”
“She will soon regain consciousness, Isabelle reassured him.
Curiosity piqued, Jim probed, “What could have triggered her outburst?”
Isabelle gave him a look. “That’s my line. What’d you do to her?”
Isabelle knew of the beast hiding behind this gentlemanly facade.
Jim was speechless. Back in Everthorn, Isabelle told her this mental illness was hereditary, and it was exacerbated by trauma.
Her father fed her mother to the leopards. Though he grew up in the mafia and witnessed countless bloodshed, Jim thought this was beyond inhumane.
What bind of neucha would food his con moman to the lennards and make his daughter match?

Thanks to that, Jim didn’t see Maria for the next couple of days.
Eventually, the Warners came, demanding the reacquisition of Maria.
They came in a large group.
Josh was in the lead.
Jim chortled. “Do you really think I’ll give her back to you?”

Smiling, Josh said, “You burned my auction house down and killed a lot of my clansmen. Yes, my sister abducted you, but you did the same to her. Look, I’ll let our losses slide if you’ll let me take her away. Let bygones be bygones. You stay in your lane, I stay in mine.”
