The won fell silent at once.
They didn't want Catherine to die, but neither were they willing to jeopardize their own well-being for her.
Let alone being sent to the 18th basent.
And so, Catherine headed downstairs on her own.
White bandages, in many places, were soaked with bright red blood.
She was already injured, and when whipped by the lord, the wounds split open again.
But it was as if she couldn't feel the pain.
Perhaps the pain in her heart was far greater than any physical pain at this mont.
The most important person to her actually wished her dead.
"Wait!"
Just as Catherine reached the first floor, a voice called out to her from behind.
Without even turning her head, Catherine knew who it was.
Because there were only two n in this manor villa.
One was the lord, and the other was...
Her sowhat faltering body suddenly trembled slightly.
Yes, the person who called out to Catherine was Su Chen.
"What are you doing, seeking death?" At this mont, the won also ca down from upstairs.
Minako Ozawa, seeing Su Chen seemingly wanting to speak up for Catherine, quickly whispered to stop him.
"Didn't you hear what the lord said? If anyone dares to plead for Catherine, they'll be locked up in the 18th basent together!" Tanoyu Kyou also gave Su Chen aningful looks.
If Su Chen dies.
When would they ever find such a man again?
Perhaps soon, other n will appear in the manor.
But are other n as good as Su Chen?
Aside from these two won, there was also Chu Hongyun, who said nothing, just frowned and looked at Su Chen, her thoughts unknown.
"Su Chen, don't talk nonsense!" Even the sturdy black woman couldn't help but urge Su Chen.
Reason told Su Chen.
He shouldn't stand up now.
But if everything was about reason.
That wouldn't be him.
Catherine was being punished by the lord because of him, for saving him.
Others can turn a blind eye.
He can't!
The lord narrowed his eyes, his gaze landed on Su Chen, and said, "Little brother, are you trying to plead for Catherine?"
"Of course not," Su Chen replied.
Hearing Su Chen's response.
Minako Ozawa and Tanoyu Kyou both breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Su Chen wasn't pleading for Catherine.
They knew the lord's temper all too well.
He always ant what he said.
If Su Chen pleaded for Catherine now.
Then the lord would definitely lock Su Chen in the 18th basent too!
Catherine also breathed a sigh of relief.
This guy has always been capricious and brash.
She really feared that Su Chen would plead for her.
Because if Su Chen did plead for her.
The lord would certainly increase her punishnt.
The lord would have her locked in the 18th basent because with her ability, although she would inevitably be injured.
She wouldn't die.
But Su Chen was different.
Those were ferocious dogs raised on raw flesh.
If she wanted to kill those dogs,
If she was not injured, of course, she could easily do it.
But now...
"Oh, then you are..." The lord was sowhat curious.
If Su Chen wasn't pleading for Catherine, what was he doing?
Su Chen walked straight to Catherine, glanced over her for a few monts, then turned to the lord and spoke deliberately, "Lord, since you don't want Catherine, why not give her to , let her be my woman!"
As soon as Su Chen spoke.
The entire villa fell silent.
The air seed to freeze.
Particularly Minako Ozawa, Tanoyu Kyou, Chu Hongyun, and the others.
Each of them gaped.
What is he saying?
He wants the lord to give Catherine to him?
Is this a joke?
This guy...
Has gone mad!
"What did you say?" As expected, after a brief shock, the lord was the first to react.
A strong murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
But as if he hadn't seen it, Su Chen continued, "I said, Lord, give Catherine to , since you don't want her, don't you?"
The lord locked eyes with Su Chen.
As if trying to see through Su Chen.
Su Chen, on the other hand, looked back at the lord unwaveringly.
From Su Chen's gaze, the lord saw four words.
Greed, desire.
The greed for Catherine, the desire for a woman!
At this mont, even Minako Ozawa and Tanoyu Kyou didn't dare speak for Su Chen.
Clearly, Su Chen had touched the lord's taboo.
No one could save him now.
However, after half a minute, the killing intent on the lord's face disappeared, his look towards Su Chen filled with amusent, and he said, "Little brother, you've got guts, you're the first man who has dared to ask for a woman."
"Lord, you know my character, I'm not good for much — my favourite things are money and beautiful won, especially beautiful won, won like Catherine you have a lot of, but I don't. From now on, my life, is yours, Lord!" Su Chen's voice was firm and resolute.
Many won's faces twitched.
Damn, this truly is a man with guts.
Not only daring to ask the lord for a woman, but also making it sound pretty damn reasonable.
