Let’s start all over again,shall we?

Chapter 231 The Desperation

“Afterwards, it appeared that the ninth young master of the Harrises had metaphorically attacked them. then observed the spectacle from a different room.”

Mia expressed herself with utmost gravity, yet Maggie found the situation utterly ludicrous.

“One can easily envision a scenario where within that cramped space, longing, survival, morality, and principles all become tangled together.

“Confronted by the overwhelming allure and cravings induced by drugs, should one yield to instinct or uphold moral standards?

“When confronted with the solitary dagger, is it wiser to use it against the other or retain it for personal defence?

Timmothy seemed to relish the scene, eagerly awaiting the responses of them.

“When every choice demands the collaboration of two individuals, confronting the triple dilemma of desire, morality, and survival, making a wrong decision could render it difficult to decide again.”

Maggie’s interest was aroused. She said, “Please, just inform me of the result without delay.”

“I couldn’t possibly predict the result,” Mia couldn’t resist remarking.

Maggie was speechless.

Observing her speechless, Mia grinned and added. “The circumstances back then were unpredictable, but there’s hearsay that the eighth young master passed away, and his mother has withdrawn from society, seldom making public appearances, supposedly devoting herself to pray alongside Old. Madam Harris.

Maggie couldn’t resist but let out a sigh. It appears the story didn’t conclude with a flawless resolution after all.

According to the saying, if a mother is willing to sacrifice herself for her child, then there must be a queue. of mothers ready to do the same.

She never questioned the depths of maternal affection.

Under the sway of powerful drugs, when one relinquishes control and rationality, Maggie finds it impossible to anticipate the choices individuals might make in such circumstances.

Mia further remarked, “I’ve heard that as a result of this incident, the ninth young master of the Harrises was confined for four years by Old Mr. Harris, and it was Nathael himself who intervened to subdue him. Upon his release, he stirred quite a commotion.”

Observing her prolonged silence, Nathael furrowed his brow, grasping her chin firmly as he uttered in a solemn tone, “Keep this in mind.”

Maggie snapped back to attention and nodded affirmatively, saying, “Understood.”

Unable to suppress her curiosity, she inquired, “Is he extremely dangerous?”

She always struggled to accept that someone like Timmothy could commit such a horrendous act.
