"If you're willing to tell the truth, I'll take the needle out," murmured Luca. She knew how much pain Stan was enduring, but she also knew that this amount of pain would not kill anyone.

Stan listened to Luca's words, but the pain made it impossible for him to think. At the same time, he dared not to compromise. He just kept saying, "It hurts, it hurts so much. Oh, it hurts. Help. It's killing me..."

Stan screamed wildly, but Luca paid no attention.

The soundproofing in this old mansion was done very well. Even though the alarm outside could be heard from the inside, the sounds from inside could not easily transmit to the outside because they had already closed all the doors and windows of the house.

Now, they were essentially in a sealed space.

Stan continued to scream in agony for several minutes.

Luke grew increasingly impatient and muttered, "I really want to shut him up."

Luca reminded him helplessly, "Just one needle can make him mute, but if we do that, how can we make him confess?"

Luke nodded. Stan still needed him to talk. That was why he did not ask Luca to make Stan shut up.

Luca's gaze fell back on Stan. She was not the type to resort to coercion.

However, this time, Stan had put her and Luke in a dangerous situation. If she did not act, she would feel sorry for herself and Luke.

Fortunately, Luke was prepared this time. If they were not prepared, they might have already been discovered by Abel, and their daughter would have been in danger.

As Luca thought about their daughter, she pulled out another needle and pricked it directly into Stan's stomach.

"Ah!" Stan let out a piercing scream.

Luca said coldly, "Still not talking?"

Stan writhed in pain, but his limbs were tied, so he could only awkwardly shift into various positions on the bed as he tried to curl up.

Luca warned, "If the third needle goes in, it'll only get worse. Are you still refusing to talk?"
