“Here, I’ve roasted a chicken drumstick for you. Try it?”

Shaun moved towards Lauren.

“Don’t come over! Shaun, you demon! I won’t believe you! My husband killed your wife. I am now in your hands. I accept my fate! My only request is that you don’t desecrate my corpse after you kill me. Please be humane!”

Tears welled up in Lauren’s eyes. Ever since Shaun revealed his identity, Lauren knew that she was doomed. After all, Jordan had just killed Shaun’s wife, and now, Shaun had kidnapped Jordan’s wife. How could Shaun let her off?

However, on the way from England to the US, Shaun was surprisingly polite and respectful to Lauren. He never had any intention of taking advantage of her.

Shaun shook his head helplessly and said, “This drumstick is delicious. I’ve been cooking this since I was 10 years old.”

He moved back to his seat and took a big bite. He ate with relish and asked,

“Why do you think I would harm you? Even if I… I want to take revenge for my wife and kill Jordan, I won’t implicate you. You’re so beautiful, fair and pure. I really can’t bear to kill you, hehe.”

Lauren squeezed her legs together and pulled her shirt tightly around herself.

“If you don’t want to kill me, why did you kidnap me?” Lauren asked.

Shaun chuckled. “Jordan is very important to me. My future depends on him, so I will never kill him. Do you know what kind of person your husband is? He’s a Deity. He has the ability to predict the future!”

Lauren believed that Shaun was spouting nonsense. “Nonsense, don’t talk to me about deities and spirits and whatever. I don’t believe in such things, nor am I… afraid of such things!”

The house was a little cold. It was not like her home in the capital where there was heating and air conditioning. Lauren was also a little afraid so she was trembling.

Shaun insisted. “I’m serious. Jordan really has the ability to predict the future! Is it that difficult to believe? Ms. Lauren, you know too little about the world. Even I can predict some things as I have some knowledge about divination! Moreover, this isn’t an ability that only modern people have. Since ancient times, there have been records of fortune-tellers across the world!”
