His Contractual Mistress

Chapter 524: You Are Not Worthy



Chapter 524: You Are Not Worthy

"I don't know," Samuel answered weakly. "And I did not care about him."         

    

The only matter in his mind is to make Vincent's life miserable. However, why is Vincent's life always good? Yet, he was still lucky to marry the empress in this life, who was reincarnated into a wealthy family and became a trillionaire heiress.      

Now Vincent was enjoying this wealth and connection. He became an influential son-in-law, and he was too envious because, until now, he was still someone's puppet!     

Heh. Samuel sneered in his heart after reality slapped him in the face. The difference between him and Vincent is still so significant. In the end, he would die pitifully again.     

Why? Why?     

While Samuel had his moment of self-pity, Vincent was not happy with his reply a few seconds earlier. His already grim face became even more profound as his gaze narrowed. He kicked Samuel in the stomach, and the latter grunted in pain.     

"Answer my wife properly!" A tinge of firmness present in his voice, Vincent ordered Samuel. He is far satisfied. Thus, he steps on Samuel's wounded knees.     

Eyes closed, Samuel cried out when the pain in his limbs was insufferable. Then, blood was spouting from his mouth. Despite the suffering, Samuel is still able to laugh. He dared to infuriate Vincent, even though the pain was seeping into his bones and almost caused him to pass out. For unknown reasons, he was still conscious. Probably because of the hatred he had for Vincent. He is mentally fighting against him, and this gives him strength somehow.      

Witnessing this, Hailee pursed her lips. As Samuel enjoys being tortured, then she will grant his wish. She stood from the dining chair and walked toward the center table where wine bottles and crystal glasses were knocked all over after Samuel attempted to seize Vincent's throat earlier.      

Everyone in that room was puzzled when she picked up the ice bucket. They wondered what she was going to do with it. They'd just realized when she splashed the content on Samuel's face.     

Jacob's men, especially Captain Jones, were dumbfounded. From day one, she came out into this chaotic world; he never witnessed this princess act cruelly, but only with kindness and a sweet smile plastered on her innocent face.      

But at this moment, their eyes glowered with deep respect for her. Finally, she is living up to Davies' name. Davies' family is known as a great ally. Families bowed before Jacob, hoping to be in his wing and protected by his wealth and power.      

Now, this dominion was officially passed down to the only heritor that Jacob had.     

Being tortured more by Hailee, Samuel was coughing hard, chasing air as he was out of breath.      

He threw sharp glares at Hailee and mused. 'How cruel!'      

How ironic he thought of this.     

Samuel did not realize yet that what he had done to innocent people was way crueler, and it was what Hailee planted in her mind to comfort herself about why she was doing this to Samuel. She is not a natural evil. She has only become one because of what other people do to her loved ones. Now they owed her so much.     

Friendship and family…     

That was what Samuel took from her.     

He killed a few of her knights she treated like her blood brothers. Pitt was still in critical condition, and even Carmen was wounded severely.     

Also, she almost lost Liam and Bryan. Their beautiful relationship ended because Samuel wanted to mess up their lives. And above all, he caused so much trouble in Vincent's life.      

Samuel owed her so much not only in this life but also in the previous. Prince Xing Ling planned to murder her son, the Imperial crowned prince. Furthermore, at present, he wants to kill her children.     

Now they were granted another life to repent and do good deeds, yet Samuel still wasted his chance to redeem his soul from the sins he committed in his previous life.     

And so she will teach him how to atone.     

"Look at you now…." Looking down at Samuel, Hailee pursed her luscious lips, wearing a red velvety matte lipstick made by Davies Cosmetics.     

Today, she exceptionally dressed up something fiery red and wore exquisite makeup for this reunion.         

    

"I should wear a black dress to commemorate your funeral tonight. However, I remembered you are not worthy of more attention. Besides, you are the last person who deserved my sympathy," she muttered with disdain as she recounted those incidents in their previous lives playing in her head.      

"Before you die, you must listen carefully. Now tell me... Do you know why the Emperor only punished you with a light punishment?"      

Listening to Hailee, Samuel snorted inwardly. 'Light punishment? It's just to give him a good image in front of the people! But he planned for his brother's death by annihilating him!'     

Hailee noticed the fierceness in Samuel's eyes, and she understood what was running in his head. She smiled.      

"You've believed that the Emperor designed your assassination. Aren't you?"     

Lying helpless in the pool of his own blood, Samuel constricted his pupils when Hailee read his mind. Initially, he has no interest in listening to her recounting how he died in their previous lives. But a part of him became curious to hear further.     

Now that Samuel was focusing his attention on her, Hailee continued.     

"You may not know, but did you remember where you died?"     

Samuel narrowed his half-opened eyes as he dug into his distant memories. He indeed noticed that the place was far different. That place is not Death Valley.     

Death Valley is a desert of suffering. But back then, after someone attacked the carriage, he noticed that the surrounding was filled with trees.     

'Where is that place, actually?' Samuel began to wonder, digging deeper into his previous life memories as Hailee carried on.      

"You didn't get a chance to know the truth. The Emperor sent you to Mystic Village to unseal Prince Wu Feng's spell on you."     

The surprise was written on Samuel's face. At first, he wanted to believe that Hailee was only lying. But what for? Everything happened four hundred years ago. But the more it sinks into his brain, the more everything seems to be more apparent.      

'Mystic Village!?'     

He opens his mouth to utter something, but he has no more strength to speak after he loses so much blood. Vincent cut off his knee joints, causing blood to ooze from both legs. His body was shivering as a chill seeped into his skin.     

Hailee peered at Samuel, opening and closing his mouth. His pale lips were out of color, and now his face looked white as a sheet of paper.     

Vincent surely did not beat around the bush and quickly tortured Samuel, cutting off the bones by hitting the patella in his knee joints.     

Hailee guessed that her husband would also dislocate Samuel's elbows if she did not appear surprisingly.      

Of course, she witnessed the Emperor doing so personally to the traitors in the empire. To teach them a lesson, he cut their arms and showed the public that traitors and robbers would fall to the same fate.      

It was so cruel of the Emperor that she hated him for being so ruthless that she wanted to call off their wedding.     

But later on, she learned the true heart of a brother.     

The Emperor had a profound reason why he was so cruel to some families in the empire that made mistakes and wrongdoings. Those people were the ones who chastised the first prince...      

As Hailee drifted farther by these memories, Hailee concealed the emotion about to flow through her eyes. She leaned back and sat leisurely like she had all the time in the world.
