Chapter 259

Janet froze on her spot when Daran’s gaze fixed upon her.

A horrible dread surged up in her chest…Would he recognize her?

No.

He wouldn’t. She was wearing a mask.

Daran stared at the woman in front of him with a frown.

He couldn’t see her face with that mask.

Yet for some unknown reasons, he found her very familiar.

Had he met her before somewhere?

“Put the boy down.”

He took a step forward and growled, “Or I will toss you into prison and skin you alive!”

“No!” Aspen let out a sharp cry, horrified. “Don’t! Don’t do this to my-”

Janet clamped the boy’s mouth as quickly as she could.

“…Don’t say I am your mom,” she whispered into the boy’s ears.

The boy blinked and tears streamed down his puffy cheeks.

Seeing the boy cry, Daran gave a sudden flash of anger.

He had a special connection with this boy.

Anyone who made the boy sad should be prepared to face his rage.

He didn’t know why this woman was trying to steal Aspen.

Maybe she heard rumors saying that Aspen was his child and decided to abduct the kid to get a large ransom.

“What is it that you want? Huh? Is it money?” he glared at Janet. “Put the boy down and we can still talk. Or you won’t make it out of this house alive.”

Janet let out a small, trembling breath.

She deepened her voice and talked in a faked, rasped voice, “…No, My King, I wasn’t trying to steal the boy. I saw him alone in this lounge and came in here to play with him. I didn’t mean any harm.”

“Alone?” Daran gave a freezing look at the maid.

The maid dropped to her knees instantly, shivering from head to toe, “F–Forgive me, My King, I didn’t mean to leave the young master here alone…he wanted cake so

I…”

You placed your young master’s safety at stake,” said Daran ruthlessly. “You will be punished.”

The maid sobbed, looking very afraid.

Janet stared at Datan with a very complicated feeling at heart.

He wasn’t this harsh and cold at 8 years old.
