Hiding Behind Her Superficiality novel Chapter 509

Chapter 509 Spare Him

"She's my get-out-of-jail card. It'd be a waste not to use her, don't you think?"

Arthur didn't care who the scapegoat was. If it weren't for Jasmine locking Elspeth and Callum up, he wouldn't have done this. However, now that he had the chance to kill Callum and pin all the blame on Jasmine, he'd seize it, no matter what.

"You're evil." Elspeth took a step back and stepped into a pool of mud.

"Don't try to fight. I said I won't hurt you. Now, come with me. It's raining out here. You don't want to catch a cold, right?"

The man tried to hold her, but she swatted his hand away. "Don't touch me. You're disgusting."

"You still think I'm disgusting, huh?" Arthur stared down, his eyes filled with cold fury.

"I've always thought you're disgusting. You're the most disgusting man in the world." Elspeth was riling him up so he would tell her all his plans.

And he took the bait. "I'm disgusting?! I did it all for you! I have to kill him. That's the only way to get you. Without him, we can be together." He stepped forward and forcefully grabbed her hand. "Do you have any idea how long I've waited for this?"

She shot him an icy look. "What did you do to him?"

"Nothing much. I just told my men to hide in the bushes and ambush him. Once he shows up, they're going to grab him. First, they'll cut off his limbs. Then, they'll slowly rip his insides out…"

The description was getting gory, and Elspeth started retching in disgust.

"I know you won't listen to me, so don't ask. Now, come with me. There's water in the car. You'll feel better once you have some water."

Arthur picked her up in a princess carry. The woman tried to break free of his grasp, but she had no strength left. The sprinting from earlier took all she had. Thus, she gave up resisting and tried to come up with a plan to escape. Callum can hold on for a bit.

Noticing what she was thinking, the man shook his head, smiling. "You can't run this time. No matter what you say, I won't agree to it." Callum must die.

Elspeth looked at him intently. "What if I agree to date you, then?"

"Nope. You'll still be with me after I kill him anyway. And I might just cut his body up to pieces just because you're defending him now, you know."

Dammit. Screw you, Arthur. She took another approach. This time, she pouted, hanging her head low.

Arthur was a little nervous seeing her upset. "What's wrong? Why are you upset? Okay, I won't cut him up to pieces. He'll be in one piece. Dead, but in one piece."
