Chapter 333: Gentle Woman

"You dared — AHHHH!"

"Answer," Lyca said in a calm voice. "Or suffer?"

"I don't know!" Lord Olfan said as he did his best not to move a single inch of his body. However, how could Lyca let him do that? With a huge smile, Lyca poked his arm. The excruciating pain made him tremble. By now, his suit was already wet because of his sweat. "I really don't! I have no idea that the Xu Family are helping them!"

"Then… have you heard of Ken Xu?"

"Heard! Heard!"

"Who is he?"

"Another poison expert! He is giving out poisons to people that he liked. No antidote… just poison!"

Lyca squinted. "How old is he?"

"I don't — I don't know! I haven't seen him! I don't know what he looks like!"

"But… you already spoke with him?"

"Yes! AHH Lyca! Give me the antidote!"

Lyca pursed her lips. "Did you know why the Shen and Xu Family hated each other?"

"No!"

"Be honest." Lyca smiled.

"I am really — Ahhh… Jesus Christ! I am telling the truth! I am telling the truth!" The more he spoke, the painful it became. His face turned uglier as he tried his best not to lose consciousness. "I am telling the truth!" He stared at her with amused eyes. "The… The hate existed before — Before I was even born."

Lyca nodded. She then showed him another syringe with green liquid. With no hesitation, she injected it into his neck. Smiling, Lyca looked at him and waited for the pain to stop. "Thank you for your cooperation." With that, Lyca left the car, leaving the pale Lord Olfan inside.

Lord Olfan calmed his breathing. His body trembled, deeply traumatized by the pain. It wasn't even five minutes since she injected that formula and the pain is already subsiding. His heart turned calmer. However, this wasn't enough to calm the older man's expression. Right now, his deep hatred towards Lyca tripled. An ugly smile slithered across his pale face.

The only reason why he told her those things is for her to fight against the Long Family while he watched on the sidelines. Then once the fight is over, he would kill the winner and become the ultimate victor. Just you wait… Lyca Huang.

"I will personally cut your throat and let my dogs r*pe you! You will regret making me suffer like this!" He hissed. After a few more minutes, he finally calmed down. Lyca was too foolish to think that arresting him like this would stop him. Naive.

"Boss… I am going to take you to the police station. Once we are there… we will interrogate you, then stage an escape plan." The man who sat on the driver's seat immediately said in the low voice. "The others will follow us to the station." The man added before starting the car.

Lord Olfan didn't say anything. That's right, every police officer in this City was under his payroll. They already arranged everything. Once something like this happened, the protocol is to first bring him to the police station. He wanted his enemies to taste victory before finally showing his cards. He snorted as he thought of that excruciating pain that he experienced earlier.

Soon, very soon. He will make everyone who betrayed him today suffer!

….

"Xi! How could you let him live?" Cleo couldn't help but asked as they followed the police car towards the station. "That man — I told you! Everyone in this City… be it the chief or the mayor — the previous one was under his payroll! How could you just let him go?"

Lyca lazily leaned against Shen Qui's shoulders. They are currently riding a black bullet-proof van. The one who was driving was Ma Ping. Next to him was Gu Cheng, while Cleo and Chu Nan were sitting in front of Lyca and Shen Qui. The couple actually chose to stay at the back of the van so no one would disturb them if Lyca accidentally fell asleep.

"You are thinking too much." Her nonchalant reply made Cleo tense. Each and every one of them worked hard just to capture that man. The evidence that they found was kept secret. Their spies worked hard, even Chu Nan had to contact his friends from the NSA to help them out. How could Lyca become so relax? Lyca should know that this man was dangerous, right?

"Lyca— "

"If I kill him while he is inside the car, everyone will think that I am the murderer," Lyca added. "How could you make everyone think that way? I am but a gentle woman!" She stifled a yawn.

"Then… you mean…" Cleo didn't finish her sentence. "But what if they escaped on the way to the station?

"Not his style. He would escape while he was at the station to show us that he was untouchable." Shen Qui answered before he gestured for Cleo to stop asking questions. His wife is already tired from talking too much today.

Seeing the slight smile on Lyca's face, Cleo sighed and looked at the silent man beside him. As if sensing her gaze, Chu Nan turned his head towards her and shrugged. He, too, doesn't have any idea about Lyca's plan.

"Ah, let me tell you this. Lord Olfan will surely die tonight." Lyca smiled. "Of course, he will die while I am already sleeping in my husband's arms and dreaming about cotton candies." Earlier, Lyca gave the man two poison. The first one caused him pain. While the second one was hidden on the antidote that he made. Well, it wasn't really an antidote as it is not her style to create one.

That second syringe was just another poison that could cancel the effects of the first one. It was enough to remove the pain and make someone feel better. However, this type of particular poison would show its effects once the person who ingested it will take water. That's right.

Once Lord Olfan will drink water, the poison will immediately show its potency. Ah… isn't that fun to watch? Just as Lord Olfan already thought he was winning, his life would suddenly end.

Sweet, isn't it?
