Ruth’s eyes widened, a look of despair forming in them.
She couldn’t breathe properly and her throat felt like it had all stuck together.
Her brain started receiving insufficient oxygen and her vision blackened intermittently. Then, she blacked out from suffocation.
Splash!
A basin of icy-cold water was splashed onto Ruth’s face, waking her up with a start. Only then did she realize that she had been released and had fallen onto the ground.
The basement was dimly lit, so she had no idea just how long she had been unconscious.
She wiped her face with her hand. When she looked up, she saw Justin seated on the sofa with his legs crossed, coldly looking at her.
The look in his eyes gave Ruth a shock. When she thought of what had happened before, she swallowed hard and said, “Mr. Hunt, you can’t kill me! If you kill me, that child will die too!”
Because Justin had strangled her just now, thereby injuring her wind-pipe, her voice was hoarse. Additionally, the more she spoke, the more she ended up straining her throat, causing searing pain.
Ruth clutched her neck. In this instant, she became very sure of something Justin really had wanted to kill her just now!
While she was thinking, Justin suddenly took out a small chip. “Is this how you keep Trueman Yale informed of your situation at all times?”
Ruth’s pupils shrank. That was a tracker-cum-monitoring device that had been implanted in her. It allowed Trueman to check on her situation at any time.
It was only with this communicator and the child that Ruth could ensure her safety.
Yet even the communicator had been discovered?!
Justin threw the chip he was holding between his fingers onto the floor. Nora had reminded him of it before she left. After that, he had instructed Lawrence to bring him the relevant apparatus before he finally found it in Ruth’s stomach.
He crushed the chip with his foot. After breaking it, he scoffed, “Do you think my men won’t be able to find the child just because you’re dead?”
Blood drained from Ruth’s face. “I… I am the child’s mother!”
“So?”
Justin countered dispassionately. His voice was low and rich, making him sound just like a demon in the dim basement. “I can make it such that the child will never know that I’m the one who killed you.”
Ruth swallowed.
Seeing the strong murderous intent in the man’s deep-set eyes, she knew that he was telling the truth!
She started shivering all over.
In this instant, she suddenly discovered that Justin was actually a hundred times… no, ten thousand times more terrifying than Black Cat!
No matter how powerful Black Cat was, what she did was ultimately still torture. However, Justin had been dispassionate and unconcerned the whole time. It was as if nothing was a problem in his world, and that he was the king in control of everything!
Such arrogance and confidence weren’t to be found even in her brother, Trueman!
While Ruth was filled with fear and trepidation, Justin suddenly said lightly, “Of course, whether that child exists or not, as well as whether he is my son or not, is still yet unclear.”
“He’s your son! I guarantee it! I have evidence to prove this!” Ruth was terrified. She knew that she had to prove right away that the child really existed, and that he was indeed Justin’s. Otherwise, he really might kill her!
