Chapter 5

Brandon clenched his fist and slammed it against the table.

“Security, bring her away,” he said coldly without a hint of emotion.

They pulled out every single needle and tube in me. Blood splattered out, and I bore with the pain. I was then forced into a car.

When I saw that the road was getting unfamiliar, I was shocked.

“Where are you bringing me, Brandon?”

“To the hospital, of course.” He sneered, and his tone was as cold as ice.

The car slowly came to a stop. I saw a huge luxurious private hospital before me.

At this deserted place, no matter what he did to me, no one would find out.

“Brandon, I’m begging you, please look into the matter before torturing me. Please…” I looked at him with desperation in my eyes.

“Look into it?”

Brandon seemed like he had heard a joke. “I don’t have to look into anything when it comes to you.”

The basement was very dark and cold. I was tied to a cold electric chair, and I could not move.

“Where’s Poppy?”

Brandon did not even look up when he toyed with the remote control in his hand.

I did not speak.

I did not explain either.

It was… completely useless. He would not believe me.

“Not talking?”

At that moment, Brandon pressed the remote control ruthlessly with bloodshot eyes.

“Ah!”

I started to twitch and convulse. Even breathing was hard.

“Is it not enough that you killed my sister? Now, you’re trying to kill another person who’s important to me? Aspen, am I too forgiving toward you?”

Brandon’s words felt like poison to my system.

“Well? Speak!”

The current was numbing my body. A sense of hopelessness rose in me.

However, he did not seem like he was going to stop.

“Mr. Fuller, if you continue to shock Ms. Anderson, she might really die… Should we tone it down?” His assistant could not help but voice up.

“Shut up!”

Brandon kicked his assistant.

“She’s all mine. You don’t have to worry about her.”

After he said that, he glared at me with cold eyes.

At the same time, his phone started to ring.

Poppy’s name showed up on the caller ID!
