CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

“We didn't expect this to happen, did we?” Silas looked at Shane and asked. “All we wanted to do was torture her, yet she killed herself. Does this mean our revenge had failed?”

Shane clenched his fists. He was obviously displeased with the turn of events.

But what else can I do? The woman is dead. I can't possibly get a medical expert to resuscitate her so that I can kill her with my bare hands, can I?

Or should I whip her lifeless body to vent my frustration? But that's not me. I'm not that perverted.
