Chapter 344 Willingly Oblige
Barely clinging onto her consciousness, Elspeth watched them as they veered through the road, remembering all
the turns they made, and the car soon slowed to a stop.
She squinted and scouted her surroundings. When she saw the landmark at the entrance, she nearly spoke up and
alerted the person in front of her. Isn’t this the Adler Residence? He’s got guts, doesn’t he? After going around in
circles, I can’t believe he brought me back home again!
With a loud slam, the door was opened. Elspeth hurriedly pretended to be unconscious, and she was lifted by two
people and carried away.
As the path gradually became darker, Elspeth secretly opened her eyes, only to see that they took her to a small
door. She didn’t know when or how, but there were people waiting at the small door by the time they arrived. And it
was only when she entered the inner room and saw the dimly lit and depressing interior that she realized it seemed
different from the last time she came. This isn’t the path to the hall. In that case, where is Rayan taking me?
Just as she was shrouded in doubts, Elspeth was brought into an even tinier door. Without looking closely, it was
impossible to even notice that it was a door. Suddenly, she was hit by an ominous feeling, and sure enough, when
she squinted at the environment inside, she realized that it was a basement.
Due to her shock, Elspeth momentarily lost focus, and Rayan had walked to her side before she returned to her
senses. He suddenly patted her face and let out a hideous laugh. “Okay, stop pretending if you’re awake. The drug
stops working the moment you stop inhaling it!”

“Miss Lynwood, do you know why I didn’t search your body?” Seeing Elspeth’s dumbfounded face, Rayan revealed a
ravenous smile.
“Why?” Elspeth deliberately looked at him with an overwhelmed and frightened expression.
Her show of weakness pleased Rayan, and he said, “Because I installed a signal jammer, plus this is the basement,
so of course no one will know.”
“So, what are you planning to do?”
Although Elspeth looked fearful on the surface, she inwardly detested this cunning man.
“Since we’ve come to this, I won’t pretend anymore. Return my scimitar, Miss Lynwood. Then… if you agree to
sleep with me for one night, I’ll let you go. What about it?”
When Rayan ordered her to sleep with him, his perverse smile was glued onto Elspeth the entire time, as disgusting
as a chewed-up piece of gum.
Scimitar? Elspeth’s thoughts drifted at that word. She recalled that she had left the scimitar at the store before she
left and did not retrieve it.
“I… don’t know where the scimitar is either. I really can’t remember where I left it.”
Elspeth could only play dumb until the end, pretending not to know anything.
“Stop pretending. I heard everything; you’re planning to give my scimitar to Mr. Logan, right?” Rayan did not beat
around the bush either and asked bluntly.
“Yes, I did say that, but I didn’t say it was your scimitar. It isn’t with me, remember? Did you forget that your father
has already given it to someone else?”
Her words made some sense, but Rayan was clearly not easily fooled. He frowned and pondered for a moment
before suddenly remembering something and glaring angrily at her. “Don’t lie to me! How could both of you
coincidentally ask me for the scimitar at the same time? Besides, you two know each other! He’s your fiancé, isn’t
he? A woman has told me everything!”
Elspeth’s tears spilled from her eyes at once. “Callum is my fiancé, but he has already canceled our wedding for
another woman. That woman doesn’t like me either and has been targeting me at every turn. Mr. Adler, you’re
talking about Emma Walker, right?”
The culprit can only be Emma and no one else! I’m losing my mind at this point! Why is she everywhere? Why can’t
she just mind her own business?!
Upon seeing a beauty in tears, even the furious Rayan became frantic, and he said impatiently, “I don’t know who
that woman is, but I’ll have you know you should stop lying to me. You’re already untrustworthy to me.”
Elspeth’s tears continued to flow at his words. “I’m not lying to you. You can just call her and confront her, but don’t
be fooled by her. Mr. Adler, you’ve always been a sensible person in my heart.”
“Fine, I’ll call her over now!” Rayan did not care about these things as long as he could have Elspeth.
“Sure.” She nodded and let out a shy smile. “Thank you, Mr. Adler.”
Elspeth had always been stunning, and there was no man alive who could resist her flirting.
Rayan couldn’t help but approach her at that moment, and he took her hand and caressed it. “Don’t worry, as long
as you’re right, I’ll do you justice and teach that woman a lesson.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Okay.” A dark glint flashed past Elspeth’s eyes. Although he was compliant, she was still sickened by his unbridled
fondling of her hand.
Rayan immediately made the call right in front of her and even turned on the speaker. Seeing that, she smiled at
him. Soon, Emma answered the phone, and she agreed in a heartbeat as if she couldn’t wait to come over to see
Elspeth’s downfall.
Half an hour later, Emma quietly arrived at the basement. When she saw Elspeth on the ground with her hands
bound, she was insanely elated, and even her tone turned shrill.
“Oh, isn’t this Elspeth? You poor thing, why are you all tied up?”
Elspeth couldn’t be bothered by how she was mocking her and only smiled lightly. And such a response made
Emma feel powerless instead, as if her taunts were useless.
Emma crouched down and looked at her face, yearning to send a slap across her face. She stretched out her hand
and clutched her chin, her grip hurting Elspeth, but her tone was extraordinarily gentle as she said, “What’s this?
How are you still so proud when you’re tied up? Elspeth, I really do pity you.”
Elspeth didn’t reply and only looked at Rayan with a pair of tearful and emotional eyes.
With just one glance, Rayan immediately felt his heart ache, and he stepped forward to grab Emma before flinging
her to the side. “I called you over not for you to lay your hands on Elspeth. I have something to ask you.”
Emma was nearly turning green with envy, wondering why every single man would end up completely bewitched by
Elspeth. Even after Elspeth had done something like that, Rayan was still defending her this much.
However, as Rayan was still present, she tried her best to act docile and innocent. “Don’t worry, I’m willing to
answer all your questions. I just don’t want you to be fooled by this woman.”
As long as she could bring an end to Elspeth, she would definitely oblige!
