Eunji turned around and left the place with Nathan following behind her.

In a short span of time that he was inside the dungeon, his soft gaze was only fixed on her, his wife. He didn't even spare the crazy and screaming woman a glance.

Aimee thought that Nathan would plead for her for the sake of the years that they were together.

But seeing the man acting cold and indifferent towards her, she could not help not to curse him at the bottom of her heart.

That was a big slap of reality itself. Now, she was sure that she had lost even before the game had started.

With this, she could not help but laugh hysterically with tears flowing non-stop from her eyes.

What's the point of playing the game now if she's bound to lose the end game?

J, Iris and the guards also walked away after they locked her cell back.

"What? Giving up? At least show some spirit. Change your motivation. Let them pay for what they have had done to you." The man imprisoned on the opposite cell taunted her.

His taunting words was somehow effective as Aimee's eyes changed.

"Nathaniel Bai! From the day you chose to marry that b*tch and forget about me! I'll make sure to make you and that sl*t pay a ten fold!" She cursed on top of her lungs.

"Shut up! You will never be able to escape this place like we do." One of the prisoner gave her a piece of advice.

"If I were you, I would humble myself and ask for forgiveness." He added.

However, Aimee was so focused on he revenge towards the couple and a glint of ruthlessness was visible in her gaze.

Little did she knew, before she could even start plotting her revenge, she was already destined to a miserable end in the end.

Nathan and Eunji entered into J's office at the top floor of the main building.

Nathan was standing by the window looking at their surroundings.

"Where are we? Why had I not known this island before?" He asked them.

"Relax. This is KSA's training and second base. We really intended for this whole island to not be seen in the satellite. With this, our base was safe. Don't worry, we're still inside the country's territory." J told him.

"Coffee?" He offered.

Nathan looked at a group of men jogging outside despite the thick snow covering on the ground. The others were practicing their Kung Fu. Some where having target shooting.

"Call off the trainings. Let them rest for today." Eunji told J and then she paused and asked.

"Is everything prepared?" She asked J.

"Yes. All that's left are the participants." He answered.

After having her ice cream and some fruits, J lead the couple into the game room where a big monitor showing both Aimee and the man.

Aimee and the man were both tied in a chair with and elastic rubber and were sitting across each other. A rectangular steel table was separating the two with a board game which looked like a snake and ladder board game.

The snakes were still there but the tiles at the tail of every snakes, there were parts of the body printed on them. Which meant that when their pawns stopped on it after their turn, that body part had to be removed or damaged.

A robotic mechanical arm which was personally programmed by Eunji would do the procedures. That way, no person would be responsible for their deaths but themselves.

A tray of medical tools were placed beside the table

As the agents present in the monitoring room saw what was going on, they turned pale and felt pity for these two people.

They were sure that before one of them would reach the hundredth tile, they were already dead due to blood lose. Worse, the entire procedure would be done without any anesthetics. And if they passed out, they would be poured with freezing cold sea water outside.

It was indeed the most painful and cruelest way to die. It was literally pouring liquid salt on their wound making it more painful. Even as an outsider, they winced in pain at the thought alone.

And if they did survived, they would be crippled and good as dead.

Then, Eunji sat down on the seat designated for her while Nathan was standing tall and proud behind her.

Then, the siren rang and the two were forced to wake up from their slumber.

Then a computer voice sounded the entire room.

Just like the agents, their faces turned pale after the voice finished explaining the mechanics of the game.

Aimee looked angrily at the camera and cursed the couple to death.

Unlike the hysterical queen, the man remained calm. As if he had already given up his life. It's too late for him to say that he regretted everything.

A bitter smile was then flashed in his face.

The game started and the two players had to roll the dice. The rubber attached on their body to the chair would loosen so they could move but if it's punishment time, it would tighten and would kept them in place. That way, the robotic arm could perform the procedure properly.

It was Aimee who had the highest number so it was her turn to play first.

On her first two tries, she landed on the safe tiles and even climbed up a ladder.

On the other side, the man had already lost his pinky finger because he landed on that tile on his second try.

He was now cursing as the pain he was feeling was too much.

Now, Aimee felt like every hair in her body were standing up.

She could not believe that someone would do such thing.

Aimee rolled the dice and it should five. She moved her pawn and bad luck struck her this time.

She had to lose her left eye ball.

"No!" Aimee screamed but the rubber tightened and in just a split second, she lost her left eye.

"Argh!!!" Aimee screamed in pain.

Blood gushed out on her face painting her shirt with red.

Nathan then looked at Eunji who had maintained an indifferent expression on the face.

He wanted to cover her eyes to not see the gore scene but she pushed his hand away.

The game progressed and both players had lost parts of their bodies.

Aimee had lost her entire left arm while the other had lost his left leg.

Everytime the robot sliced their flesh, they could feel the raw pain and the sounds of the flesh being cut open.

It was such a horrifying scene.

Pools of blood could be seen on the floor.

Both of their faces were pale as a sheet of paper due to blood loss and fear.

They could not even muster to blame each other anymore. They had no energy left to roll the dice.

The longer the game progressed, the more they lost blood.

Both of them passed out a couple of times because of the pain but a bucket of cold sea water was being poured to them every time making them to curse and scream in pain even more.

They screamed non-stop making their voice to be hoarse.

"Stop!...Please! I'm begging you!" Aimee pleaded but it was useless.

The game continued as the mechanical arm rolled the dice for them.

Aimee lost her entire toe nails this time. While the man lost his left ear. He had lost more body parts compared to Aimee but compares to him, Aimee lost the major body parts.

She had lost her kidney and her gallbladder.

Due to extreme blood loss, Aimee died and thus the game ended.

On the other hand, the man was left to die on the chair. He was supposed to be the victor should he not died.

Eunji on the other hand didn't leave the place until the game was finished.

No one was declared the winner since both of them died in the end.

Eunji stood up from her seat and looked at the man behind her. She then flashed a sweet smile on her husband as she leaned forward and grabbed his nape to give him a quick peck on the lips.

"That will happen to all the girls who would want to covet you from me. So better make sure that none of this will happen again." She playfully warned.

"Don't worry, they won't even get the chance to go near me." Nathan seriously said.

Unsatisfied by the peck she had given him, Nathan pulled her closer and kissed her passionately.

Nathan and Eunji broke off the kiss when she was already gasping for air.

Then, she grabbed his hand and told J as if nothing had happened.

"I'll leave this to you then."

With that, they left the island before a strong storm could come.

Nathan and Eunji arrived at the airport when it was exactly time for dinner. So Marco --who was waiting at the car-- had booked the restaurant in advance.

It was already past nine in the evening when they arrived at the mansion.

***

The following morning, news of Aimee Park being missing was reported on the news. Her best friend Chloe came to the police station to file a missing report.

However, the police had no clues or leads on the case.

For the rest of the weekdays, Eunji's life had been peaceful and was back to normal.

Alice and Iris' life was also back to normal.

Nathan and the rest were busy preparing for her twenty fifth birthday celebration which fell down on the first day of the Gregorian Calendar year.

Eunji had been insisting on not celebrating it since it was useless.

She'll never be on the mood for celebration.

However, Nathan had a different thought on it. So he made sure to keep it as a surprise.

Meanwhile, Celine had successfully signed up to Universal Entertainment and had held a press conference after that.

She was warmly welcomed at the company even though she was a foreigner.

The senior executives wanted to give her special treatment by giving her a bigger apartment than the others but she declined.

She's currently staying at QPRC and she had no plans in moving.

Sam had been busy sorting out her schedule for the next six months as she had a lot of invitations for a female lead audition on their movies.

Because of this, she had automatically become the enemy of her competitors.

"Choose a project that would give me ample of time for myself." She told Sam.

Celine wanted to enjoy her life though it was a very rare opportunity for an artist like her to have.

"I'll see what I can do then." Sam reassured.

"Thanks Sam. You're the best!" Celine said as she teasingly kissed her on the cheeks.

The two then erupted on a giggle fit and stopped when they entered on the car.

Celine had to attend the company's year end dinner party later.

As the new addition of the family, she had to attend.

Meanwhile, at the clubhouse where Frederick was staying, Nathan had tossed on a folder containing the files the former was asking from him.

Frederick Heart scanned on the pages as expected and after he was done, placed it on the coffee table across him.

"I hope you're already satisfied with that and go back to your country." Nathan told the man.

"Why does it sounded like you didn't want me to be here Master Bair?" The man teased.

"You already guessed it so you better scram." Nathan didn't beat around the bush.

"Oh, how's Missus Bai? I've heard something happened to her which caused a sensation in the entire city. I want to join in the fun but seems like you had it under wraps as quick as you could." The man continued teasing him.

"My wife's business is none of your concern Mr. Heart. So better keep your hands to their proper place or you'll lose them." Nathan seriously warned.

"Relax! I'm just concerned. And besides, as a colleague, it would be rude of me if I won't pay her a visit out of respect." Frederick said.

"My wife doesn't need your recognition nor your respect. She's an ordinary citizen of the country."

"If she is, then why do I have this feeling that she's not an ordinary? I can't find her in the web." Frederick pressed on the matter.

He was really curious and wanted to meet Missus Bai however, it was like she didn't exist at all. He thought that Nathan was just so good in hiding her.

'You dared to do background check on her?' Nathan thought angrily.

Sensing that the man was angry, Frederick chuckled lightly.

"Well, I have to keep all of her information private. I have a lot of enemies and I don't want to implicate her and our family." Nathan simply said.

"I see." Frederick sounded to be convinced. With that, Nathan turned around and decided to leave.

"Okay. Thanks for this. And I'll leave the country the day after tomorrow." He said while looking at the man's receding figure.
