Chapter 10
"What are you going to do about last night? I helped you. Is that how you repay my
kindness?" Katherine felt a little anxious in her heart, but she still looked calm on the
surface, as if she was not afraid of Joaquin hurting her at all.
After all, she already held a silver needle between her fingers. As long as Joaquin made
any wrong move, she would immediately let this man feel what desperation was like.
"Oh? Then tell me, how do you want me to repay you?" Joaquin smiled and glanced at her
clenched fingers, his eyes sarcastic.
Katherine lifted her neck and looked at Joaquin. "Let me out of the car, and I'll treat that as
repayment…"
She froze before she finished speaking because the man suddenly moved closer to her.
Katherine instinctively wanted to avoid it, but the back of her head was held down and
pushed forward a few inches.

The man's warm breath brushed past her ears, while the hand that fell on the back of her
head slowly slid down and landed on her neck in an ambiguous manner. It tightened
slightly, and then the man sighed as if looking at his prey. "Your neck is really fine…"
It was so fine that he could break it with little effort.
Katherine's eyes were slightly rounded in disbelief and fear.
I've actually let myself get trapped by someone! This is something that hasn't happened
in years!
Katherine squeezed the silver needle in her hand and was thinking about whether to bring
him down with her when the man's voice rang out, interrupting her movement. "If you
don't want to return it, that's fine. It's just that the pendant is what I want to give to my
future wife. Since you took the token of love that I've prepared, does it mean you plan to
marry me?"
Katherine listened to his words, and there was an inexplicable layer of cold sweat on her
back.
Joaquin touched the sweat on her neck and laughed. "What are you afraid of?"
Her thoughts were exposed, and she did not care about anything else anymore. She
reached out and pushed Joaquin away, then scolded coldly, "You're shameless."
Joaquin said, "It's not very nice to let you cheat on the Levisay guy and marry me, but… I
like that."
He smiled meaningfully.
"You keep saying that I took your belongings. But where's the evidence?" Katherine was
convinced that Joaquin had no evidence to prove that she took it, so she had no fear.
"You were pursued by killers last night, so maybe you lost it on the way. Why are you so
sure it was me?"
Seeing that Joaquin's expression loosened for a moment, Katherine knew that she had
made the right bet.

He really had no evidence.
So, she became more and more aggrieved, and her eyes instantly turned red. "I kindly
helped you last night. It's fine if you don't want to thank me, but you instead kidnap me
and accuse me of taking your things. Although I just returned to Cechirus, I am not to be
bullied!"
Joaquin, who was still shaken just now, suddenly smiled when he saw her reaction. "I was
almost deceived by you, you little fox."
He was about to say something else when a familiar voice suddenly came from the
earphone. "Sir, the Levisays are coming this way and we are about to cross paths."
The Levisays?
Joaquin's cold voice rang in the car. "Stop the car."
The driver pulled over and stopped. Joaquin sat upright, did not look sideways, and did not
look at Katherine either. "Whether you took my things or not, the truth is best not to be
discovered by me. Get out of the car."
Soon, Katherine opened the car door and got out. Watching the black car speeding away,
she furrowed her brows, feeling that the man was weird.
Is he afraid of the Levisays then?
