Chapter 367 Bribing Him for Help

Luna was beaten up pretty badly, though not to a pulp, but she was almost out cold.

She lay there on the ground, her hair a tangled mess. Nearby, Leo was panting heavily, clutching a thick rope in his hand. Emily saw the scene and felt a chill run down her spine.

Seeing Emily arrive, Leo took a deep breath and plopped down on the couch to rest. He then tossed the rope aside and managed a small smile, apologizing to her.

"Sorry for calling you over so late, Emily."

Emily took a couple of steps forward, the smell of blood growing stronger.

She swallowed hard, noticing up close that Luna's face had red welts, with beads of blood seeping out. Other wounds were oozing blood, making her look terrifying.

Because of this, Luna turned her head away, not wanting to lose her dignity in front of Emily.

It seemed like the rope had accidentally hit her face.

Leo had really gone too far.

He didn't care at all about the appearance of a young girl... But then again, Luna must have done something really bad.

But was it really worth it just for breaking two necklaces?

Emily was conflicted. She was genuinely shocked, so much so that she didn't even hear Leo invite her to sit down.

It was Harlan who reminded her, and Emily finally sat down obediently.

Her gaze drifted back to Luna, seeing her trembling all over, half her body covered in blood, the wounds bleeding faster, staining her clothes.

It was the green dress Luna had worn when she saw Emily that morning. Now, the green dress was stained with blood, turning dark red and then purple, looking very jarring.
