Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

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—”
