Chapter 736: Chapter 736: The Punishment Sounded Brutal
"..." hearing Edie’s words, the man’s face changed immediately, " Such an arrogant woman. You have no sense to appreciate favors. Why do you think I am not me at this moment?"
"You are so sly. An honest soldier would not have such eyes. So worldly. You never planned to lie to me at the very beginning. But you don’t want to show me who you are. It is easy for me to tell."
He has already told her the answer. Why did he still want to ask her?
"Quite interesting. But since you can see this, I believe you are smart enough to win the game. Accept the bet. You would not lose anything. I am not Julia’s man. Besides, I can pose as anyone. If you win, I might be able to leave this place."
"Really," Edie’s eyes started shining immediately.
"That depends on you. Are you sure you can win the game? If you lose, you would be punished."
"What punishment?" Hearing this, Edie got a little nervous. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
Hearing this, the man burst into laughter, "If you lose, I will destroy your face. I would make you as ugly as that woman. What do you say?"
Hearing this, Edie frowned.
The punishment sounded really brutal.
But Edie had no other choice now.
She bit her teeth tightly and said, "How long? Don’t tell me it is timeless."
"Three days."
"No, one day. Start from dawn tomorrow. If you win, I can give you my face. You can do whatever you want on my face. But if you lose, you should do me a favor, deal?" Edie became determined. This was the only way for her to save herself from this place. She has given up a lot. She couldn’t give up more.
Hearing her words, the man frowned slightly.
He was worried he was not able to meet enough people one day. It was so challenging for her.
As he lowered his eyes and hesitated, Edie sneered, "What? Are you afraid of now? You are not able to do that, right? Except deceiving little girls like my daughter, what else could your trick do? Learn to be smart, okay?"
"Bullshit. What the hell are you talking about," the man got angry when hearing Edie insulting his skill. He was so mad that he couldn’t help himself saying dirty words.
"Are you going to accept the bet or not?" Edie asked him again.
"Yes. Deal. One day. I believe I can win you."
"Okay. If you don’t come, you will lose the game."
"If you hide from me, you would also lose the game."
"Okay. But the man you’ve posed should be the man I’ve seen and touched. If you just chose a guard or a between maid I’ve just passed through without any touching, I would never get the right answer. Certainly, I would have lost the game."
"Don’t worry. I never do that. The man I would play tomorrow would be the one that you’ve touched before. Cheer up," then he turned around slowly with a smile at the corner of his mouth.
"What’s your name?" Edie asked him. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
"I would tell you after you win me," he said in a proud voice.
After he walked out of the door, he saw a woman walking to him. It has been five years since he saw her last time. Julia looked familiar and strange at the same time.
Julia...
The man’s face changed immediately. He calmed himself down. At the moment, he looked noble and serious, like a real soldier,
He put away his gun and saluted to Julia, respectively.
Julia didn’t have any formal troops. Every man here was trained in accordance with the strict standard in the military force. Therefore, every soldier here was tough.
When passing through the man, Julia didn’t even throw an eye on the man.
The man smiled behind her. Seeing his smile, Edie got more nervous. She didn’t expect that even Julia couldn’t recognize it.
This man was so good at disguising. He even could deceive Julia.
Edie was not confident in the game tomorrow. But she had to face the challenge because she had no other choice.
"Edie, we met each other again."
Julia wore a tight black leather dress. At the moment, she looked like a poisonous rose, beautiful but scary. She wore heavy makeup today. Her mouth looked bloody. Edie felt it was her nightmare.
Edie tried the best to calm herself down and said, "Julia, what do you want?"
"I want nothing. I just want an explanation for my family. I would get everything back one by one."
Hearing her words, Edie pressed her lips and kept silent. She wanted to see what Julia wanted to do.
Julia stepped towards her slowly and looked around as if she really missed this place.
"Do you know why I decorate this place like this?"
"Stuart?"
"No. It is K. K! My K!" Julia said and smiled. She smiled and was cold and damp, like a poisonous vine stretching in the dark night.
While she talked about K, she looked so happy.
"At that time, no one knew his name or identification. He liked to hide in the darkness in silence. He didn’t like contact with other people. All people would freak him out. He is like that mysterious night. He made others crazy. He made others eager to approach him. I want to tear the veil on him to see what he looked like. Everyone doubted his capability. But when he got his first mission, he acutely avoided those policemen and ensured the safety of his men and the goods."
"He finished the mission without causing any damage. It was his achievement. Do you know why we called him K? K means king. He is the real king. Have you seen him like this?"
Edie knew K Julia was mentioned as Stuart. She was talking about Stuart to her.
Edie didn’t answer. She was still waiting for Julia.
Whenever Julia mentioned Stuart, she looked so happy.
"It was his precise planning, smart approaches, and determination that let us get rid of the danger over and over again. At the very beginning, no one believed him. But gradually, more and more knew they should respect him. Do you have any idea what he had experienced? He is the same kind of guy as my brother, William. They are all fierce and powerful men. I worship them. But, because of you, they were all ruined."
When she said the last sentence, her eyes were filled with the fire of anger. She pointed at Edie madly.
Instead of panicking, Edie looked so peaceful. She knew Stuart had experienced lots of terrible things in the organization before. But he seldom talked about it. She believed he preferred to live in the sunshine, no matter what he’s achieved before.
Besides, Edie was not interested in what he has done before.
She knew Stuart. She couldn’t stay with him when he suffered. But she could stay with him in the future. Julia was so obsessed with the past that she couldn’t accept the reality.
"What do you want to tell me?" Edie finally asked her in a cold voice.
Hearing her question, Julia laughed out.
"A woman told me complicated men tend to fall in love with the simple, pure girl. That is why K chose to get married to you. Besides, even if he didn’t meet you; he would not choose to get married to me because I am one of William’s. I think about this for a while. You know K. I also know him. But I don’t believe in fate. Both you keep telling me I would never be able to get married to K., But I want. I want to disobey fate and get married to him. Understand? Isn’t it interesting?"
Both you...
What did Julia mean?
