, it was already 9:00 pm , but no one in the meeting room dared to leave .

Brians expression remained grim when he returned to the meeting.

He seemed distracted and lost in thought .

And everyone could tell that his mind wasnt on the discussion .

After a long while , even Emily had enough .

She whispered , Mr.

Lodge , its 9:00 pm .

Brian snapped back to reality and glanced at his watch .

Lets end the meeting , he said coldly .

Noticing his absent mindedness , Emily hesitated .

Mr.

Lodge , about the proposal just now … Well revisit it later , he said before leaving the room .

The people in the meeting room exchanged nervous glances .

Revisit it later ? Then was their meeting earlier for naught ? Brians demeanor was unnerving .

He had never seemed this intimidating before .

Inside the lift , Brian asked nonchalantly , Hows Arianas interrogation going ? Theres no news yet .

I can call to follow up , Emily offered No need .

Ill check myself .

Brian dismissed her .

What ? Emily froze .

Brian was heading there himself ? Half an hour later , at the police station .

Mr.

Lodge ! What an honor to have you here ! Why didnt you call ahead ? Mick , the chief , hurried over .

Brian wasnt in the mood for pleasantries .

He frowned .

Wheres Ariana ? Shes in a cell .

Would you like to see her , Mr.

Lodge ? Mick looked proud of himself .

In a cell ? Brians expression darkened .

Who told you to lock her up ? Has she confessed ? This is about Ms.

Granger , right ? Theres no way shed confess so quickly .

Shes not that foolish , Mick chuckled .

nervously .

Ive arranged for her to receive some special attention , but Ariana is incredibly stubborn ! She wont say a word … Before Mick could finish , Brian interrupted , Special attention ? What exactly have you done ? Mick froze at Brians murderous glare .

Didnt … Didnt you instruct us to interrogate her thoroughly Take me to her immediately ! Without waiting , Brian strode into the building .

Mick scrambled to follow .

Inside the cell , no one knew how much time had passed .

The female inmates had grown tired from beating Ariana , who now lay on the floor , covered in blood .

Boss , maybe we shouldnt go too far .

If she dies … Therell be trouble , right ? one of the women asked nervously .

The leader looked at Arianas battered state and couldnt help feeling a twinge of fear .

Despite being beaten up , Ariana hadnt screamed once .

Instead , she had been laughing .

It was a haunting sound that even unsettled her tormentors .

Still , the leader forced herself to stay calm .

What are you afraid of ? Were just following orders ! We have to make Chapter 219 +25 BONUS her talk as long as she doesnt die ! With that , she walked over to Ariana and yanked her off the ground .

Arianas face was covered in blood and bruises .

The leader sheered .

Ill give you one last chance .

Are you going to confess ? If you dont , Ill break your hands ! Lets see how youll ever hold a pen again ! Go ahead … and try … Arianas smile remained .

The leader was enraged .

Fine ! You asked for it !
