Chapter 294

The woman in black was dragged out, and soon her desperate cries echoed from outside. She pleaded, “Your Highness, spare mel Have mercy! I’ll never dare again! Never! Your Highness…”

Leon continued sipping his coffee in perfect calm, seemingly untouched by the woman, his mood undisturbed.

Magnus stood silent guard by his side.

After what felt like an eternity, when the woman’s cries faded to a faint whimper, Leon finally gave a dismissive wave of his hand.

Magnus immediately ordered his men to haul the woman in black back inside.

The woman in black was thrown to the ground, beaten within an inch of her life. Magnus hauled her up and forced her to face Leon.

Leon leisurely picked up his coffee cup and idly drank it. “Speak. Who’s pulling your strings behind the scenes?”

The woman, beautiful just moments ago, now lay battered and bloodied. Her hair was in wild disarray, her body smeared with blood and filth, a pitiful

wreck.

Though utterly terrified and desperate just moments before, she now mustered a shred of defiance.

The woman, trembling, said, “You… You destroyed my father and my brother. Do you… think I’d ever be afraid of you?”

“Still not yielding after being beaten to this state?” Leon suddenly rose to his feet, his piercing gaze fixed on the woman’s face. Though battered and disheveled, she remained strikingly fair and beautiful.

Suddenly, Leon gave a cold smirk. With a flick of his slender fingers, he snapped the coffee cup in half between his fingertips.

With a flick of his finger, a shard of the coffee cup shot across the woman’s face like lightning.

The shard moved too fast. The woman in black barely had time to register the pain before something warm and thick began trickling down her face.

A sharp, burning pain suddenly shot through her. The woman, who had shown a hint of confidence a moment ago, was now utterly gripped by panic.

“My face! My face! No… no, no…!” the woman in black shrieked in horror, clutching her cheek in panic.

“Shut up!” With a flick of his sleeve, Leon sent the woman flying across the room. She crashed hard to the floor, unable to resist his overwhelming force.

After being beaten with a stick, her face disfigured, and then struck by a palm, the woman now hovered at death’s door.

She gasped for breath, lifting her eyes to the ice–cold, merciless figure still seated before her. She was torn between disbelief and bitter acceptance.

She didn’t just fail. She failed utterly.

“Your…” She tried to speak, but a mouthful of dark blood gushed from her lips.

Leon’s gaze remained inscrutable yet chilling, laced with a menace so dark it struck despair into her heart like a demon from the depths of hell.

Leon said coldly, “This is your last chance. Who exactly sent you here? If you stay silent, don’t blame me for what happens next.”

Leon stared at her, a cold smile playing at his lips. “Not afraid of death, are you? Then you wouldn’t mind being sliced into pieces, would you?”

The woman in black trembled all over, finally croaking out in a broken whisper, “It’s… It’s an organization… Only women… in it.”

The woman in black finally revealed the location, a hidden cave nestled in a mountain ravine on the outskirts of the city.

By the time Magnus and his men arrived to search the place, It was already deserted, without a soul in sight. Someone had set the whole precz zbir reducing everything to ashes.
