Chapter 634

A tall man was curled up in a corner of a cold, dark room.

Shane could hear a click. He was like a rat in the dark and was silently paying attention to what was

happening outside.

The tiniest sound would attract his attention. He adjusted his glasses and stumbled toward the door.

A ray of light shone in through, and Shane became hopeful.

Ethan’s men didn’t do anything to him after he made the video clearing up the misunderstanding about

Olivia. But he hadn’t had anything to eat or drink for over half a day. His throat was parched.

The door was finally being opened. Was he going to be freed?

A tall and well-built man appeared at the door. Shane anxiously asked, “I did what you asked. You

should let me go now.”

Someone turned on the lights in the room. The bright light shone right into Shane’s eyes, so he

covered his eyes with his

hands.

After his eyes adjusted to the light, he heard an indifferent voice say, “You think you’d be leaving?”

The voice wasn’t loud, but Shane felt like he had been hit by a bus. He had a feeling that he might not

be able to leave this place in one piece.

He saw a handsome man in a suit before him. He had only seen the man on television before.

“M-Mr. Miller!”

Maybe it was because Ethan had such a commanding presence, or maybe it was because he had

learned his lesson; Shane knelt

on the floor without hesitation.

“I was fooled by the rumors online, Mr. Miller. Trust me, I wasn’t really planning on hurting your wife.”

“You weren’t planning on hurting her?” Ethan thought that was the funniest joke he heard in a long

time.

Ethan wasn’t someone who would bully the weak, nor would he look down on others. He would’ve

forgiven Shane if it was just

a minor issue and Olivia wasn’t hurt.

He reviewed the footage repeatedly. If Olivia reacted a little slower, she would’ve been doused in

sulfuric acid, especially her face.

The majority of it would be eroded. The consequences of Shane’s actions would be devastating, but he

glossed over it by saying he didn’t plan on doing it.

Ethan smiled without saying a word. Shane’s heart started to beat quickly, and his back was covered in

sweat.

Just as Shane was trying to guess what Ethan would do, Ethan suddenly slashed Shane’s arm with a

knife.

Ethan’s actions were so swift that Shane could already feel the pain when he realized what had

happened.

He screamed in pain.

“I didn’t mean to do it. Can you forgive me?” Ethan asked with an icy expression.

Although Shane was in pain, he didn’t care about it as long as he could get out of there alive.

He quickly said, “Of course I can forgive you. I deserved that.”

“You are quick-witted.”

“Then…” Shane was excited.

In response, Ethan cut Shane a few more times ruthlessly. He didn’t even blink as he swung the knife

repeatedly.

Shane finally realized that Ethan’s question was meaningless. No matter what his reply was, Ethan had

no intention of letting him go.

“Does it hurt?”

“A lot. Mr. Miller, please don’t hurt me anymore.”

“You want me to stop hurting you? Did you think about that when you tried to hurt Olivia?””

Ethan grabbed him by the collar and said, “Do you know what happens when a person is doused in

sulfuric acid?”

Ethan’s eyes were bloodshot, and his expression was stormy.

Shane was sweating profusely from the fear.

He muttered, “I don’t know. I really don’t. Mr. Miller, I don’t know what came over me. I was blinded by

greed. I didn’t think

too much about it …”

Ethan said coldly, “Then, I’ll give you a taste of what happens when you’re doused in sulfuric acid.”
