Chapter 1069

"Brielle, look at me!"

His grip on her chin was like a beast pushed to its edge, ferocious and unyielding.

Brielle winced, wanting to push him away, but the pain was too intense, sapping her strength.

Every cell in her body screamed in agony, her complexion turning ghostly pale. She was powerless to escape his grasp.

Like a coward deceiving himself.
