This place seemed like living hell to her.
Clyde brought Lilith to the farthest end of the prison.
The farthest cell was empty and no inmates were locked inside.
Clyde gestured for her to enter. “Mrs. Thisleton, please enter.”
“What do you mean?” Lilith was rather alarmed.
Clyde answered, “I’m merely following Ares’ orders.”
Lilith retorted, “Then what is the reason behind his orders?”
Clyde shook his head. “I don’t know either. But, don’t worry. I won’t lock the door.”
Drawing in a deep breath, Lilith replied, “Alright.”
For the sake of revenge, I’ll just bear with it, she decided.
After Clyde left, the inmates’ growling and yelling went on.
As Lilith listened to their growls, she felt her heartbeat increased due to fear. Thus, she ended up covering her ears.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNot long after her arrival, another military helicopter arrived and touched down outside the prison.
It was the Great Marshal, Zeke Williams.
The reason Zeke was here was that he suspected Lilith had come here to visit the real Ares.
At once, Clyde came to greet him by falling to his knee. “Greetings, Great Marshal. I am Clyde Hill, the director of
Iron Prison.”
Zeke asked in a cold voice, “Ares’ wife, Lilith Goldace is here. Am I right?”
Clyde nodded. “Yes, Sir. Mrs. Thisleton is here to visit an inmate.”
“Oh? Who is she visiting?” Zeke questioned.
Clyde answered, “Why don’t I bring you in so you can see for yourself?”
“That sounds good.”
After Zeke agreed, Clyde brought him to the farthest end of the prison.
When Lilith saw Zeke, her heart started thumping furiously.
Damn it, why is Zeke here?
What is Ares’ plan?
Zeke turned and asked Clyde, “Isn’t she here to visit someone? Why is she in the cell?”
Clyde hurriedly replied, “The inmate she wants to visit is in a cell with the highest security, which she has no right to
enter. I need to bring the inmate here.”
Zeke nodded. “Oh, I see. Bring the inmate over. I’ll be waiting here.”
“Yes, Sir!”
Clyde turned and hurried off.
An evil smirk appeared on Zeke’s lips, because it was obvious that Clyde was acting fishy.
Only the most hardened and uncontrollable inmates would get locked up in the cell with the highest security.
Once the inmate was brought out, he or she would either escape or get killed at once.
Instead of exposing Clyde, Zeke went along with him as he wanted to know what his enemy’s plan was.
As Zeke walked into the cell, Lilith immediately stepped backward instinctively.
She knew the Great Marshal had the ability to take her life anytime.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZeke inquired, “Tell me now. Who are you visiting here?”
Lilith took a deep breath to recompose herself. “This is none of your business.”
“If I’m not mistaken, you must be here to visit the real Ares, right?” Zeke asked.
Lilith was baffled at his question. “What? The real Ares? I don’t understand.”
Zeke had been studying Lilith all the while.
Her reaction showed that she had no idea the current Ares in Thisleton Manor was an impersonator.
With that, Zeke told her. “Let me tell you the truth. The current Ares who you share a bed with is an impersonator.
The real Ares has been imprisoned for a long time.”
Lilith could barely stifle her laughter. “Do you think I’ll believe this nonsense?”
Zeke scorned, “What a fool. Didn’t you realize how Ares had changed since two years ago?”
Lilith pondered for a moment before answering, “Yes. Two years ago, Ares became hot-tempered and even started
going against his own rules.”
“But how could there be two people who look so much alike? Just stop lying to me.”
