Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 797

When Paul saw Vincent's annoyed expression, he quickly let go of him.

It was not until this moment that Vincent looked slightly pleasant.

"Elaine did beg me to let you go," Vincent said slowly.

Hearing his remark, Paul blurted in surprise, "Great! please let me go then. I haven't eaten or even had a sip of water for a whole day. I can't stay here any longer!"

As Paul went on, there was not a slightest change of expression on Vincent's face. In fact, bonepiercing coldness started to creep out of his eyes.

His gaze startled Paul.

Why did he feel that he was glaring at him in a menacing way?

He was going to let him go, wasn't he?

But he felt that there was killing intent in his eyes.

Fearful, Paul stammered in a shaky voice, "W-Where's Elaine? Why didn't I see her?"

"Do you know what you did wrong?" Vincent countered with a question.

Paul was taken aback by his question.

"She is your sister, but you conspired with an outsider to deceive her. You not only put her in great danger but you also stood by and watched her being assaulted without lending a hand!" A sinister smirk appeared on Vincent's face. "You don't deserve her help."

Blood drained from Paul's face upon hearing that.

"She goes all out for you and even protects you all the time, yet you harmed her, you ungrateful b*stard. If I were you, I wouldn't have thought of leaving this place." The Vincent looked at him coldly. "I might as well die here."

Startled by his remark, Paul pleaded, "No! I don't want to die! I'm sorry! I didn't mean it. I was blinded by the money. Please let me go!"

Vincent were unmoved.

Since Paul was not bound to a chair like Allen, he suddenly rushed straight to the door.

When he was about to go out, the door was kicked open.

It was Ruben, and he came in with a person in his hands. "Oh my gosh, why did you let her come here? I was sleeping downstairs when I heard some noise. I thought it was you, but then I heard another set of footsteps, so I got up and saw that she was eavesdropping behind the door!"

With her mouth muffled, Elaine couldn't make a sound, and she glared at him with her fiery eyes.

She had been listening for a while but she couldn't hear anything they said, instead, she saw Paul was running towards her.

She was about to rush in when Ruben covered her mouth and brought her in.

Surprised, Vincent did not expect to see her here, so he frowned and asked, "Why are you here?"

Elaine pulled the frightened Paul behind her and growled, "If I don't come, are you going to kill him?"

At this moment, Vincent shot his indignant glare at Ruben. Ruben quickly waved his hands and grumbled, "What's that look? Hey, I'm innocent! It's you who didn't notice her following you, and you

blame me for it? "

Frowning, Vincent put away his gun quietly.

At this time, Allen, who was not far away, came to his senses and shouted," Elaine, help me!"

Elaine glanced at him, grimacing slightly. His nose was bruised, his face was swollen, his legs were bleeding, and his whole body was covered in wounds. If Elaine had not been able to recognize his voice, she would definitely not recognize him in his current state.

However, she glanced at him indifferently and then turned her face away.

She could not abandon Paul because he was her brother.

But she couldn't care less about Allen.

He almost assaulted her last night. When she recalled the desperation she felt at that time, she wished that Allen would be more miserable than now.

Although she did not like to see these bloody scenes, she would not have thought to save him.

Elaine intended to leave with Paul, but Ruben kicked the door close swiftly upon seeing the signal from Vincent.

All of a sudden, Elaine froze.

What did he mean by this?

Vincent looked at her calmly. "You can go, but he must stay."

He pointed to Paul as he spoke.

Trembling, Elaine shouted, "Mr. Bradbury, you promised to let him go!"

"You called me a liar, didn't you? I'm sorry, but I have to break my promise."

"You..."

Stamping her feet in anger, she took several deep breaths before stating, "I will take him away today

whether you like it or not!"

Hearing her words, Allen shouted from behind, "And me! Take me with you too!"

"Who are you? I don't know you. It's none of my business whether you are dead or alive." A faint expression appeared on her face.

Upon hearing her sarcastic remark, Allen shivered in anger.

"Haha...” Ruben couldn't help but laugh out loud by the scene.

When he sensed Elaine's glare on him, he cleared his throat and assented, "Go on. Just pretend that I'm not here."

On the other hand, Vincent's expression softened a little. If she begged him to spare Allen, he might shoot him in a fit of anger.

It was a good thing she could tell right from wrong.

Gradually, Vincent's voice softened too as he said while raising her chin and looking straight into her eyes, "He doesn't see you as his sister. If I hadn't arrived in time last night, he wouldn't have saved you from those monsters. Do you still want to protect such a b*stard?"

Under the dim light, her face was as pale as a piece of paper.

Paul screamed, "No! It's not that I don't want to save her, but I... I..."

"I'm scared." He couldn't say those words out loud though.

A sinister smirk appeared on Vincent's face as he looked at him coldly.

Paul shuddered in fear by his gaze.

Sensing the awkward vibe in the air, Ruben quickly stepped in to mediate the dispute. "Come one, guys. It's getting late. Why don't we take a break for today?"

Seeing that everyone was ignoring him, Ruben gritted his teeth, pulled Vincent to the side, and whispered, "You'd better let go of her brother. If you make a move on him, she will definitely hate you, and you don't want that. Just let him go."

"I'm taking revenge for her," said Vincent.

"Revenge? They are siblings. How is she going to explain to their parents if you beat the crap out of her brother right in front of her?"

Seeing his expression shifting, Ruben paused for a while and continued, "You have not felt the family bond since you were young, but she has. They grew up together for decades. Do you think she can cut ties with him because he committed one single mistake?"

Upon hearing that, Vincent looked at Elaine and

Paul, the brother and sister who were donning a wary expression.

Then, Ruben continued, "Besides, you should control your pathetic EQ. You looked like Freddy Krueger when you started your killing spree last night. I bet Elaine must be frightened now. Do you

want to scare her further by hurting her brother? You should take this opportunity to calm her since she is so alert and afraid of you, yet here you are, wanting to murder everyone. Do you really want her to stay away from you forever?"

As soon as Ruben finished, Vincent blurted, "Of course, not!"

"Then do something to make her happy!"

"Such as?"

"Let her brother go!"

Vincent blinked in silence, weighing the pros and cons of the matter in his heart. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

After a long while, he finally turned around and said, "You can go."
