Audrey Wood slowly raised her head, and when she clearly saw the man's face, her pupils suddenly shrank, her mouth opened wide, and her voice hoarsely stuck in her throat, "Ma... Mason Nightshade..."
"It seems Paul Wright served you well." Mason Nightshade's gaze was chillingly indifferent, "Want to get out? No need to rush, someone will take you out soon, the people outside can't wait for you to show your face."
The pain in her fingers was piercing, Audrey Wood barely had the strength to cry out. Paul Wright had been hitting her intermittently for over two hours. Even if the door was open and no one was guarding it, she wouldn't have the strength to crawl out.
"Why? Mr. Nightshade, I haven't offended you, there must be some misunderstanding. Aurelia... Aurelia, that little wretch, she..." Cruelty flashed in Audrey Wood's eyes, but before she could finish speaking, Mason Nightshade's gaze turned sharp, and his foot ground forcefully into her hand. Audrey Wood screamed hysterically in pain, her throat torn, mouth filled with the foul taste, her throat already bleeding from shouting.
Grayson Quinn, who was leaning against the doorframe, watching the spectacle, suddenly clicked his tongue twice. Audrey Wood cast a desperate gaze at him, but what she saw was a pair of emotionlessly cold eyes, even... with a hint of amusement.
"Before plotting against others, wouldn't you first investigate their identity? Sophie Nye and Eleanor Spencer have been making you target Aurelia Shaw for so long, don't you have even the slightest doubt why they specifically target a newly debuted actress?"
Grayson Quinn found it hard to muster interest in Audrey Wood, a woman so foolish in her actions was bound for this day sooner or later. However, he quite liked the bloody scene.
"Did you really think Aurelia Shaw was a kept woman by Mason Nightshade?" Grayson Quinn scoffed, "Since you guessed some of it, yet still dared do this, it seems you have quite a few things concerning Aurelia Shaw that you wouldn't want Mason Nightshade to find out."
Audrey Wood's eyes suddenly widened, panic and fear flashing through them. Who exactly was this man? How could he so easily see through her heart?
"Mr. Nightshade, it's not like that, Mr. Nightshade please listen to my explanation, I really didn't know Aurelia Shaw is your wife..." After saying this, Audrey Wood met Mason Nightshade's cold and harsh gaze, her body instantly froze.
Mason Nightshade had never said Aurelia Shaw was his wife, that man, he... he was setting her up!
Audrey Wood suddenly turned ashen, powerless and lying on the ground, her gaze empty, having lost any desire to struggle for whether she would live or die, or what kind of torture she might endure.
Mason Nightshade looked at her with disgust, turned coldly, and a light, casual remark floated by, "Inject her with the pain-inducing drugs brought from E country, and when the effect wears off, throw her to those reporters, ha, I remember she seems to owe a lot of gambling debts? Blame it on the debts, understand?"
Tsk tsk, that's ruthless.
Grayson Quinn clicked his tongue in his heart, leisurely following behind him while asking, "That drug's worth quite a bit, even agents can't handle it when injected, aren't you afraid of torturing her to death?"
"Heh." Mason Nightshade coldly tugged at his lips, "My entire medical team is on standby next door, dead? She's dreaming!"
Grayson Quinn looked at Mason Nightshade's cold, chilling gaze and shivered.
A man with a wife, indeed, best not to provoke.
However, Aurelia Shaw, that girl...
If he missed the opportunity to settle the score from the last text message, it would greatly hurt his reputation.
"Mr. Nightshade, how should we deal with the man inside?" the guard asked.
