Chapter 718

Chapter 718

Christina, who was imprisoned alone, was starving.

The dinner thrown to her by the guard was just a piece of raw meat. Even when she had lived with

Barbarians, she had not eaten raw meat.

Why did they lock her up alone? She didn’t know what happened to Patrick and the others.

Her previous island experience told her that she had to rely on herself to survive.

She had carefully checked the cage, which was square and was made of iron. The narrow space was

not enough for her to stand up. It was almost the same as the cage for death row prisoners in

ancient times.

A big lock hung on the heavy chain. Christina looked around and saw that no one was in the cave. It

was useless to pull the chain.

Although the gate of the prison was rusty, it was still firm. She kicked the iron pillars around with all

her strength, but it was useless, which depressed her.

Perhaps they thought there was no need to arrange too many guards to watch over a weak woman

so there were even no guards in the cave. It was so dark inside that only some faint flame shone

from the entrance.

When the guard came in with a torch and threw raw meat at her, she noticed a sharp stone 60

centimeters away from the gate.

Now she was crawling on the ground pitifully, stretching her hand hard to grab the sharp stone, but

she still couldn't reach it. She could only turn her body over and stretch her right foot. Fortunately,

her legs were long so she could get it over.

Just as she was about to reach the sharp stone, a sound came from outside the cave.

She quickly hid it and sat upright, looking nervously towards the entrance.

It seemed that someone was about to come in and was arguing with the guards. Christina was

familiar with the sharp female voice.

“Are you blind? You don't know who I am?”

Mary arrogantly shouted at the guard, "Get out of here!”

The guard naturally knew this arrogant and domineering lady who was the Chief's favorite woman.

Everyone got along with her very carefully in fear that she would speak ill of them and they were

killed by the Leader for no reason

The guard lowered his head and whispered, “Madam, Chief said that Elder would take care of it.”

“The resting place of Elders has been disturbed by Mr. Raphael. Everyone is busy seizing him. They

are too busy for a moment. Get out of my way. Now I want to get in, do I need your permission?”

Mary's beautiful eyes glared, and she looked so powerful. Lucy stood behind her, feeling overjoyed

as Mary's words seemed to work.

The two guards looked at each other awkwardly and did not dare to contradict her. They had to

take two torches and accompany her in.

When Christina saw the person coming in, she was surprised. It was her mother, Mary.

She never expected that her cruel and cold blooded mother would be the first to visit her.

Mary asked the guard to take out the key, open the gate, and let Christina out.

Christina looked surprised and bent down to walk out.

Before she felt touched about her mom risking herself to save her, Mary straightened up, glared at

her in anger, and slapped her in the face.

Christina's face was burning with pain, but she was slow to what was happening.

Even the two guards were a little confused. They thought that Mary had taken the opportunity to

come in and visit her daughter, but they did not expect her to come here and get hysterical.

Mary's harsh words echoed in Christina's ears. “How dare you resist your father? He was angry and

also blamed

me!”

“I've done so much to bring you to the island. What have you done? How dare you scramble for

Scepter with your

father!”

Hearing her words, Christina suddenly realized that her mom couldn't save her.

Christina's lips curled into a self-deprecating smile. She really couldn't expect too much from a

woman who abandoned her husband and children.

Christina retorted with a cold face, “It was you that forced me to this place. I just want to leave this

godforsaken spot!”

Mary looked angry. “You are impolite. How dare you talk back!” Raising her hand, she wanted to

slap Christina again and teach her a lesson.

Christina took advantage of the pause and grabbed her shoulder. Then Christina pointed the sharp

stone under her chin, wanting to threaten her.

If she wanted to escape, she must not miss such a good opportunity.

Unfortunately, when Christina put her hand on Mary's shoulder, the bodyguard following Mary

immediately found the sharp stone in her hand. The guard snatched her sharp stone and pushed

Christina away with great force. The force was so strong that Christina was caught off guard and hit

against the iron gate. She felt great pain.

Mary's guard was so nimble and quick-witted that Christina was not a match for him. She could just

gasp in pain.

Mary was still a little confused. When she saw the sharp stone in the guard's hand, she was even

angrier. “You,

how dare you attack me!” She was ferocious with anger.

Only then did the guard realize that the imprisoned lady was a hard nut to crack. She should dare to

take Madam as a hostage!

Fortunately, Mary's bodyguard was nimble or they two were to blame for it.

Christina glanced at the bodyguard who was plain, old-fashioned, and thin. She could not tell that

he was so skilled. No wonder Mary trusted him so much.

The guard leaned over to Mary's ear and whispered, “Madam, since she is so heartless that she

disregards the mother-daughter relationship, why don't I just kill her?”

“If she had succeeded just now, not only would she have hurt you, but Chief would have been

furious if he knew.”

"Anyway, Chief has ordered the Elder to kill her in case more trouble would arise. Her temperament

and existence will only cause you trouble. In the future, there would be more misunderstandings

between you and Leader. If I kill her now, not only troubles could be saved but Chief will be

pleased.”

Christina looked nervously at the two people in front of her. She could not hear what the guard had

said to her mother.

Mary was silent for a moment. She looked at her daughter, who was now leaning against the gate in

the prison. Christina was destined not to be favored and would only make everyone laugh at her.

Chief would be even more dissatisfied with her.

“Both of you go out.”

Mary's face suddenly turned cold. She turned around and sternly ordered the guards.

“But, Madam...The guards felt vexed.

"Get out!”

Mary screamed again.

“Yes, Madam.”

The guards had no choice but to compromise. They put the torch on the wall and left.

They were also not stupid. At the same time, they sent more people to guard the entrance of the

cave just in case. Even if something happened inside, they could deal with it in time.

“What do you want to do?”

Christina had a bad feeling when she saw Mary driving the guards away.
