Chapter 2044: The Madman

Joyce felt conflicted. Though she didn't know Clint well, she believed he meant what he said. Looking around, she saw over twenty guards, including Tadasuke, the previous attendants, and the maids who had bathed her-at least thirty people. If she escaped, they would have to pay with their lives. She couldn't bear that responsibility.

She glanced at Clint, who appeared indifferent, wielding life and death power so casually. She thought of Athena. It was clear now that OGW must have been part of his faction, and Athena had used Clint's connections and resources until the end. Perhaps Clint had his eyes on her since then. Ruthless, domineering, perverse, and obsessive women like Athena were under his control.

Joyce realized she had to reassess the man standing before her.

At that moment, Yukawa Mugen looked up and coldly glanced at Tadasuke. "She doesn't seem to believe me. I told you to watch her. You let her run out of the East Palace. What punishment do you think you deserve? Maybe you should start by setting an example for her."

Clint blew on his nails, admiring them in the sunlight.

His words made Tadasuke collapse to the ground, tears streaming down his wrinkled face. He trembled like a leaf in the wind.

"Yes, Your Highness," Tadasuke said with despair in his eyes. He crawled towards a nearby stone pillar, leaving a trail of tears or sweat behind him.

Just as Tadasuke was about to smash his head against the pillar to atone with his life, Joyce shouted, "Wait!"

Tadasuke stopped and looked at Joyce with hopeful eyes, like seeing a savior. He really didn't want to die.
