?<strong>Chapter 902:</strong>
Jayden frowned. It was clear that the environment repulsed Elyse, and it was understandable. She had always been surrounded by brightness and had never been exposed to such gruesome and frightening situations.
Jayden instructed the bodyguard, “Take her away from this ce. I’ll catch up with youter.” The bodyguard nodded and led Elyse away.
Once Elyse was out of earshot, Jayden smiled at Aarya and said, “Now, it’s just us. So, where should I begin?”
From the look in Jayden’s eyes, Aarya perceived his murderous intent. Despite the pain from her wound, she moved forward slowly and said, “No, you can’t kill me. My dad is still out there. He won’t forgive you. If you kill me, you’ll suffer severe repercussions.”
Jayden smiled and nodded. “I’m well aware your dad won’t overlook this. Especially if I kill his only child; he’d be left with no heirs in this life.”
Aarya stopped in her tracks, surprised that Jayden knew about her father’s situation. She asked outright, “Did he tell you that?”
Jayden approached Aarya calmly. “No. Years ago, a weak assassin attempted to kill Charlie but failed. Though unsessful, the assassin injured Charlie in a way that left him unable to have more children.”
Aarya’s eyes widened with fear. “Impossible! How could you know such details? Were you the one who injured him?”
Jayden nodded. “Yes, it was me. You should be grateful. If not for me, you wouldn’t be his only child, the apple of his eye. All the love he showed you would have been shared with other children.”
At that moment, Aarya finally understood just how dangerous Jayden truly was. She should never have crossed him.
Desperate to flee, she tried to move, but the pain from her wound was too much. Every step sent a sharp jolt through her body, forcing her to gasp. Her legs gave out, and she copsed to the floor.
Aarya looked up, only to see Jayden pulling out a dagger. The cold gleam of the de reflected in her wide, terrified eyes as she scrambled to crawl away.
Jayden let out a low chuckle. “You spent all this time tormenting others, but now the tables have turned. I thought you’dst longer. Didn’t expect you to break so easily.”
On the verge of a breakdown, Aarya begged, “Please, don’t kill me! Please!”
But whether she lived or died was no longer her choice.
Meanwhile, Elyse sat outside the vi’s gate, far from the stench of decay, wrapped tightly in a nket. Her mind was still reeling from what she had witnessed in the blood-soaked basement. She sat there, dazed and numb.
After finishing with Aarya, Jayden sent a few quick messages from his phone. Stepping outside, he spotted Elyse’s fragile form huddled in the cold. She looked frail, even bundled up.
