Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me?

The man who came in had his face covered, so they couldn’t see his expression clearly. However, the

hatred in his eyes became more and more obvious.

“I’ve been lurking on this ship for three full years.” The man looked at Elias with a sneer. “I have

endured humiliation and been a subordinate for three full years. Today, I’ve finally found a chance to

fight back.”

Elias was calm as if nothing particularly important had happened. “Oh, so what?”

Seeing Elias’ unafraid look, the man became more and more annoyed. “Keep pretending. I’ll see how

calm you can still be in a moment.”

Behind him was a group of men in black, all of whom looked vicious and strong. As soon as the man

raised his hand, one of them came over immediately and asked, “Sir, what should we do with the two

people in front of us?”

“Except for the two people sitting at the table, you can deal with the others as you like.” The masked

man let out a grin.

Soon, the rest of his men immediately became excited when they heard this. Since the masked man

had said to let them handle the other people as they liked, they would be able to enjoy the women here

however they liked. Some women in the room began trembling with fear; others fell to the ground and

dared not speak. They were so frightened that they were about to cry. As the men saw this scene, their

strong desires were aroused. Just when they were about to step forward to do something to the

women, Elspeth suddenly let out a snort, which stopped them in their tracks. At once, all eyes were on

her.

“What are you laughing at? You’re going to die soon. How do you still have the nerve to laugh?” The

masked man didn’t understand Elspeth’s reaction. Why was this woman different from other women?

Wasn’t she afraid at all when encountering such a situation?

Elspeth sneered as she stared straight into the other’s eyes. “There’s nothing to be afraid of here.

You’re just a pitiful man.”

The man stepped forward and grabbed Elspeth’s arm. “Who are you calling pitiful? Let me tell you—

today, you will meet your maker!”

“There’s nothing certain about that yet. We don’t even know which one of us will die and which one of

us will live. You may not be able to beat me, so don’t waste your efforts.”

After the man heard her words, he laughed. “Everyone here knows that you were rescued from the

ocean. After being unconscious for so many days, you don’t have much strength, right? How will you

have the strength to beat me?”

The masked man didn’t want to talk nonsense anymore. He stepped forward a few steps and was

about to grab Elspeth’s hand when he found that his wrist was locked tight and he couldn’t move at all.

At that moment, his face immediately became extremely ugly. Her strength was so great that he

couldn’t resist at all! No, it was not just strength, but force instead! Her brute force was so mighty that

even a man like him who had practiced martial arts for many years had to admit he was weaker than

her!

“You—”

“Can you beat me?” Elspeth smiled lightly.

If that group of people came up to fight her together, she might not be able to beat them. But if they

came at her one by one, she could definitely wipe them out easily. The masked man was still trying

hard to keep his smile, but his smile was particularly forced. “I’ll admit you’re pretty good… but there

are so many people on our side. Do you really think we can’t beat you?”

“Let’s leave the matter of fighting aside. Just tell me why you’re making trouble on this ship today.”

Elspeth’s question seemed to bring back the masked man’s memories, and he immediately showed

resentment. “Three years ago, I boarded this ship for the first time, and I originally wanted to do well

and earn lots of money so that I could marry a woman and start a family. But his father, Irving Cole,

broke one of my fingers just because of a small mistake.”

After speaking, he stretched out his hand and showed it in front of them. Sure enough, the little finger

of his right hand was indeed missing.

“It’s hard for a disabled man like me to find a wife, let alone have a great career. That’s why I’ve been

doing odd jobs on the ship, and no one thinks highly of me.”

His face was full of desolation.

“How is it possible for me not to hate him? So, I swore that I will make your father pay the price. This

so-called son of his is here to supervise the work on the ship, and I will kill his son and make him regret

it for the rest of his life.”

He cast his eyes on Elias who was at the side before smiling cruelly.

Irving Cole…

Isn’t that my godfather that I accidentally acknowledged back then?

Irving Cole and Elias Cole…

One was like a mobster, while the other was bright and handsome. She really hadn’t connected them

together. The man thought that if he told Elspeth, she would think about it and stand on his side. After

all, if such a mysterious and special woman could help him, it would be of great benefit to him.

However, after hearing his story, Elspeth not only didn’t empathize with him but just rolled her eyes.

“You said it was just a small mistake, so do you dare to tell me about this small mistake? Also, you

want revenge, but you allow your men to bully the women on the ship. This proves that you are not a

good person!”

“You don’t even know what happened, so why do you say that about me?” The masked man’s

expression became twisted. “Okay, if that’s the case, then don’t blame me for attacking you!”

Not only was Elspeth not afraid, but she stepped forward and stood in front of everyone.

“Other than your grievances with the Cole Family, what about the men behind you? Have all of them

been treated badly?”

The dozen or so people behind who were holding weapons in their hands were all stunned.

Elspeth picked a person at random who appeared to be more honest. She smiled at him and asked,

“Why did you follow him?”

“I… He promised me that he will give me a lot of money after the matter is completed.”

Elspeth nodded thoughtfully and changed her target. “What about you?”

“He also promised me that he will give me money after the matter is completed.”

Hearing these answers, Elspeth couldn’t help laughing. “He is just a poor man now. Do you really think

that he will have money if he kills the captain’s son?”

“Besides, it’s unlawful for you to follow him. When the time comes, you won’t have lots of wealth, but

instead, you’ll be hunted down endlessly! Don’t forget the might of the one who owns this ship. When

the time comes, not only you but even your wives and children will suffer together!”

Elspeth spoke harshly, and everyone around her was shocked. Immediately, they began whispering to

each other.

“Yeah, although he did promise us money, where will the money come from?”

“He doesn’t have any money, yet he wants to get justice for himself.”

“Why do I feel like we’re believing in the wrong person?”

The men behind turned their gazes to the masked man in front of them.

Right now, the face of the masked man turned red. “You must not listen to this woman’s instigation. She

just wants to sow discord among us and then take us down!”

But no matter what he said, the men behind him still didn’t dare to move.

At this time, Elspeth smiled slowly and said, “I’ll give you another offer. You can work for me and take

down this masked man who is being insolent toward us. After the matter is completed, I will give each

of you one million.”

One million?

The eyes of all the people present widened, and their gazes began sizing up the masked man greedily.
