Tiffany Kelley sat on the rocking chair and asked calmly. “Are you sure you don’t want to tell me?” Den Jahn smiled slyly. “Miss, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you. I really don’t know anything!
Tiffany gave a smirk. “Very well. Let’s see how long you can remain tough.”
“What does she mean? Is she going to torture me? Den wondered.
He then panicked and hurriedly shouted, “What… What are you guys trying to do? It’s illegal to torture people! I–I can sue you for wrongful confinement!”
“What are you saying? You are here as our guest. Why would we hurt you?” Tiffany smiled and even got someone to untie Den.
Then, she continued, “Since you’re a guest, you don’t have any objections to ying with my Lucifer, do you?”
Den looked wary. He wanted to reply that he had objections and that he wanted to leave this ce at once. However, the crux was that it didn’t matter even if he voiced his objections because nobody cared.
Behind Den, Jeremy Cooper acknowledged Tiffany’s instruction and immediately whistled.
Lucifer had been transferred to Luna Vi from Royal Bay a while ago. During its stay here, it had been feeling very restless so it was more than happy to have someone to y with.
Lucifer… Lucifer? So she is summoning her pet? Den thought
He heaved a sigh of relief and asked casually, “What breed is it? Is it an orange tabby or a ck tabby? Are its ws sharp?”
Jeremy looked at Den as if he was a retard.
Tiffany simply smiled nonchntly and sipped her juice leisurely.
Den gave a scornful snort. Hmph! He wouldn’t say anything even if he was bitten to death.
What could a mere cat do to him?
Soon, a creature gamboled across thewn not far awa
away.
When he saw it, Den couldn’t stop smirking. ‘Gosh, you’re quite chubby, aren’t you? You’re as big as a dog.Please check at N/?vel(D)rama.Org.
In the end, as the creature got closer….
It ran madly at an extremely fast pace and even stirred up a trail of dust.
As the creature got closer, Den finally saw clearly. This was nog some fucking domesticated cat, but a massive tiger!
The tiger’s fur was gleaming. Its eyes were bright and its teeth were sharp. The low growl from its throat carried the natural overpowering bearing of a ferocious beast.
Den’s skin went numb and he froze on the spot. “Argh! Help!”
“Why is there a tiger here? Won’t this tiger gobble me up?
As these thoughts shed through his mind, the big tiger was getting closer and closer to him. The threatening low growl from its throat became even more terrifying.
Den took to his heels: Lucifer followed behind as if it were walking Den on a leash. The creature even deliberately slowed down so that its human pet could run further away….
After running onep, Den copsed from exhaustion. As Lucifer looked down at the man, it opened its big gaping mouth and let out a roar.
“Argh!” Den’s skin went numb. He shielded his head and fled again.
Time seemed interminably long to him at this moment….
However, in reality, he did notst more than five minutes before his legs went weak from fear and he fell to the ground clumsily….
Tll tell you. I’ll tell you everything!”
Sure enough, the man finally capitted and decided to spill everything.
Tiffany nced at Den casually and gestured to Lucifer who was still growling menacingly behind Den. “Come here.”
When the big tiger, which was still so menacing a while ago, heard themand, it immediately became docile–looking and bounded to Tiffany’s side.
Once there, it kept rubbing its big head against her feet yfully
The feline did not look like a ferocious beast at all. It was such a cute furball.
Den, who was lying limply on the ground, felt like cursing out loud at this juncture.
This seemingly harmless young girl was even more terrifying than a demon!
“Tell me. Tell me everything you know. If you so much as tell one lie, you will end up as my Lucifer’s meal.”
“Okay…”
Den gritted his teeth and finally confessed. “I do have some photos, but they were all sold to me by others. I thought I could make a quick buck by selling them for profit.”
Den’s words were only half–truths.
After Alexia Harper got into trouble, many purportedly nude photos of the girl proliferated on the Inte. Some photos. were opportunistic attempts to satisfy people’s curiosity so it was hard to tell if these photos were real or fake.
Even if the Harper family had all the photos both real and fake removed, they could not possibly block the mouths of gossipmongers.
Although some photos were edited or modified, a number were genuine.
This was a stroke of brilliance on Melody Princeton’s part.
She had carefully leaked a few real photos as a precaution.
This way, even if the photos were found in someone’s possession, that person could simply say that he had bought them from someone else and did not fabricate them.
Tiffany gave an ambiguous look. “Do you honestly think I don’t know the inside story?
“Six nights ago, it was Melody Princeton who instructed you guys to deal with me. Later on, she instructed you to take action on Alexia Harper. Her motive was to frame ine so that the Kelley and Harper families would fall outpletely.
“You guys acted well. Unfortunately, Jade Payne found out about your n..
“To stop Jade from exposing her n, Melody could only silence her. She even destroyed all the evidence. Am I right?”
As Tiny spoke, Den’s expression changed again and again. ler every word hit the mark!
However…
“Who’s Jade Payne? Is it that female corpse found at Creek Lane Mel… Melody Princeton was responsible for that?” Den was surprised.
He had already left the scene with his gang afterpleting their act.
Thereafter, it was Melody who took Alexia away, so they did not know what happened after that.
“That’s right. With Melody’s ruthless and meticulous personality do you think she will shift the me to you once the murder is exposed? Tiffany concluded with an unfathomable expression.
True enough, Den’s expression changed again.
These people grew up in the same neighborhood. Not surprisingly, they knew the characters of theirpatriots well. Melody would definitely think of a way to shirk responsibility for this murderous crime.
Tiffany continued, “Melody Princeton has the backing of the Harper family’s scion while Jansen Princeton is the fature brother–inw. What about you? What do you guys have? When the timees, who will be abandoned? The answer is obvious.
Den remained silent.
If the earlier threat was not effective, then the words Tiffany said just now were surely enough to make him waver.
In this world, it was every man for himself.
Moreover, Den was not the one whomitted this crime. If what Tiffany said turned out to be true, wouldn’t he be the scapegoat and die an unjust death?
Den raised his head and asked solemnly. “But how can you be sure that this murder case will be solved? You also said that Melody Princeton will never reveal anything. And you don’t have any concrete evidence either.”
Tiffany only smiled faintly. “Tomorrow. By tomorrow, I will make Melody Princeton confess all her crimes.”
Den looked at the confident young girl in front of him who already seemed to have a n in mind.
Her words were incredible, yet he had no choice but to believe her.
Den gritted his teeth and made a wise decision eventually. “Then what do you want me to do?”
