Chapter 288 I’m Not Worth It

Maggie’s eyes swelled with a sour sensation as she fixed them on the man on the screen.

He was disheveled, as he was still in the same suit he wore the day they went to watch the competition. His beautiful eyes were tinged with the red of sleeplessness, and his hair was messy from a night without rest, coupled with the weariness from travel. It added a rare disheveledness to his appearance.

Nevertheless, despite this, the tension in his expression intensified like churning like a stormy cloud, and the icy aura radiating from him was hard to suppress. The once fierce and controlled malice he had previously held back now surfaces prominently. His dark eyes gleamed with a cold, murderous gaze, akin to that of a demon wandering on earth.

Timmothy nonchalantly hung up. He turned to Maggie and said, “It seems like I’ve worried you for nothing. Alex and Nelson only showed up at Alosea’s factory as a diversion.”

His voice was calm, as if discussing the uncertain weather of the day, tinged with a hint of regret.

However, the scar across his face was a gruesome sight. The man, who was previously perceived as harmless, appeared eerie..

Flaws always bring a sense of sorrow.

Maggie said nothing. She knew Timmothy wasn’t likely to stop his maneuvers just yet. With her falling into his hands, she became his best leverage against Nathael.

Did Timmothy have any weaknesses?

To her knowledge, his father had passed away early. His brother was severely injured in a scheme at the age of eighteen and had been disabled since. His mother had been driven mad by him and was now living in seclusion, rarely seen in public.

So, did he care for anyone at all?

Threatening his life? She had tried before, but this madman didn’t fear death.

Maggie’s eyes drifted to the book before him. She wondered if there was truly no way to break this stalemate.

“What is in your mind?” Timmothy asked, and his interest piqued as he looked at her.
