Chapter 4
“Run far away? Do you really think it’s that simple?!” Liam spat through gritted teeth, his voice trembling with rage. “Mila endured hell abroad because of your schemes! And now you plan to just disappear without a trace? Never!”
His obsidian eyes blazed with an inferno of wrath, each glare piercing into Evelyn like daggers, threatening to incinerate her very soul.
Evelyn sucked in a sharp breath, her body convulsing under the weight of sheer terror. Panic clawed at her chest, consuming every shred of rational thought until only one desperate idea remained: she must kneel and beg for mercy. She couldn’t die here, not now when life still held hope. She wouldn’t let this ruin the rest of her days!
With that resolve, she prepared to drop to her knees. But before she could, Liam seized her waist with brutal force, slamming her against his chest.
Liam’s bloodshot eyes locked onto hers, his grip tightening around her lower back with crushing intensity, nearly snapping her fragile frame in two.
“Kneeling before me? Don’t insult me further, you’re not worthy of sullying my presence.”
Her lips quivered uncontrollably. What else could she do to appease him? Suddenly, inspiration struck. “Mr. Drake,” she stammered, desperation dripping from her voice, “if you feel my punishment hasn’t been enough ... whip me. Burn me with cigarette butts, whatever it takes to satisfy you! Whatever it takes...”
Liam’s fury erupted like a volcano. “Evelyn, how utterly despicable can you get?!”
She dared to suggest such punishments herself? This pitiful creature was once Evelyn, the proud, beloved young lady of the Clarke family, admired by all. How had she transformed into this groveling coward within mere two years?
Evelyn’s lips trembled, her gaze hollow and devoid of light. Wasn’t degradation expected by now? At this point, anyone’s pride would’ve crumbled to dust, and hers had vanished long ago.
It didn’t matter if he called her vile ... as long as he spared her life.
