"You’re going to report !"
"I don’t need to report you! Sixth Master will find out for himself!" Xavier Young laughed maliciously.
Suddenly, Sienna Johnson drew a dagger from Xavier Young. Xavier Young’s eyes narrowed, but he didn’t imdiately snatch the dagger from her. He didn’t take Sienna Johnson’s threat seriously. In his eyes, she was just a weak woman he could take out with one punch.
He said disdainfully, "Mai, you want to kill to silence ? It’s not that I look down on you, but with your skinny arms and legs, killing is simply impossible!"
Sienna Johnson slashed her arm forcefully, fresh blood gushing out. Xavier Young was stunned. "Why are you hurting yourself?"
"You said Sixth Master has a keen sense of sll, right? That he can sll fresh blood on . Isn’t this the sll of fresh blood?"
Sienna Johnson rubbed the bloody knife on his clothes to clean it, then returned it to him. She looked up at the man, whose resolute face was filled with anger, leaned in, and whispered so that only the two of them could hear,
"Also... if you tell Sixth Master I’m not really pregnant, I’ll tell him that because of Jasper, you tried to kill . That you not only slashed my arm but also pushed , causing to miscarry.
And I, being a kind-hearted woman, hid this matter so as not to affect the brotherly bond between you and Sixth Master.
Wouldn’t that explain why I’m having my period?
Because you... caused to miscarry!"
Xavier Young felt as if an atomic bomb had gone off in his head; his entire world was turned upside down. He had encountered many won. Most were gentle and kind, and so were ruthless, but none were as cunning and vicious as Sienna Johnson.
This woman wasn’t pregnant at all, and she even wanted to pin this on him! He, Xavier Young, had never been so wronged in his life!
Xavier Young was a man who yielded to persuasion but not to coercion. With Mai framing him like this, how could he let her have her way? "Mai! I’m going to tell Sixth Master! I want to see who he’ll believe!"
"Go ahead. I’d be delighted if you told Sixth Master!"
Sienna Johnson had an expression of complete confidence. Xavier Young, furious, pointed at her and cursed, "You sorceress! You venomous woman! Just you wait!"
Sienna Johnson smiled, her beauty as radiant as a sunset, captivating all who saw. "Xavier, I’ll be waiting!"
Maxwell Young ca by and, seeing the two of them standing together, was shocked. "Xavier, what are you doing?"
Maxwell Young was Xavier Young’s elder brother; Sienna Johnson recognized him.
Sienna Johnson didn’t explain. Holding her bleeding arm, she stepped aside to leave.
Maxwell Young looked at the blood on the ground and asked, "Is Madam injured?"
"Yes."
Xavier Young watched Mai’s retreating figure, spat on the ground, and seethed, "Vixen! Sooner or later, I’ll expose your true colors!"
Maxwell Young gave him a shove. "How did Madam get injured?"
"She cut herself!"
Maxwell Young punched him, dragged him back to his room, closed the door, and began questioning him. "Tell , what exactly is going on?"
Having just learned such shocking news, Xavier Young was desperate to confide in soone, and his own brother was the best option.
"Brother, that Mai... she’s lying to Sixth Master! She’s not pregnant at all..."
"What?"
Xavier Young then told Maxwell Young everything he had just found out, embellishing the story with his own outrage. He concluded, "Brother, let’s find a chance to get rid of that woman! A woman like that by Sixth Master’s side is a ticking ti bomb."
"You idiot!" Maxwell Young punched Xavier, exclaiming with exasperation. "What have I told you? You just let my words go in one ear and out the other, don’t you? I told you not to cause trouble for Madam! How could you slash her?"
Xavier Young stared blankly at his brother, taking a long mont to react. "Brother, you don’t believe ?"
"Who would cut herself like that?"
All won cherish their beauty. A cut like that would surely leave a scar, wouldn’t it?
Xavier Young clenched his jaw, his face contorted with anger, his fists cracking. "I can’t believe that vixen managed to fool even you, Brother!"
"You brat! What nonsense are you spouting!"
"Brother, believe it or not, everything I said is true!" Xavier Young suddenly stood up, intending to leave. Maxwell Young, afraid he would cause trouble, stopped him. "You’re staying with for the next few days. You’re not allowed to go anywhere!"
"Are you trying to imprison ?"
"I’m doing this for your own good!"
"If it’s for my own good, you should be clearing my na! I need to go tell Sixth Master. If I don’t tell him, who knows what lies that vixen will spread about ! I regret it so much now. If I had known what kind of vixen she was, I definitely would have..."
Xavier Young impulsively tried to go find Sixth Master, but his brother blocked him. "Get back here! You’re not going anywhere!"
"Brother, I can’t listen to you on this! I’ve never been so humiliated in my entire life! Damn it, that despicable woman..."
Maxwell Young slapped Xavier Young across the face. Xavier, enraged, yelled, "You hit my face?"
"Calm down! Otherwise, I won’t be able to protect you when things go south!"
"Why would I need your protection? I don’t believe Sixth Master will trust that vixen over !"
Maxwell Young looked at his impulsive, irritable brother. "You can’t outsmart Madam!"
Xavier Young pushed his brother away and stord out. Maxwell Young called after him, "Where are you going?"
"I can endure hardship, but I absolutely will not let so despicable woman fra like this!"
To stop him, Maxwell Young fought with him. The cabin was small, so they couldn’t maneuver freely, and both sustained injuries. However, Xavier Young’s martial arts were slightly better. As he overpowered his brother, Xavier Young said, "Maxwell! Have you forgotten what Dad said when he passed away?"
Xavier Young used a rope to tie his brother up, securing it with a sturdy sailor’s knot that Maxwell couldn’t possibly undo on his own. "I rember!" Xavier retorted. "Dad told to always listen to you! But Dad also said a man must live with integrity! That despicable woman got Jasper killed, and now she wants to fra too! If I let her get away with it, I’d be a spineless bastard!"
"You..." Maxwell Young was bound like a rice dumpling. As if that weren’t enough, Xavier Young then gagged him with a towel, silencing him completely.
"Brother, don’t worry about this. I can handle it myself! Just get so sleep here. By the ti you wake up, I’ll have exposed that woman’s true colors!"
