Chapter 525: Worse

Seeing the black pistol in Scott’s hand and the trail of blood on the floor left behind by the corpse that was dragged away, Karen was scared out of her wits.

She looked at Scott slowly walking toward her and quickly retreated backward as if she had seen a ghost.

She was now so scared that her arms and legs turned limp, and she could barely stand. She could only crawl backward like a dog. On all fours, she begged, “I beg you, don’t kill me! I… can do anything you want me to!”

Panicked, she scanned her surroundings and looked at the people around her with a pleading gaze in her eyes. But they were all Scott’s subordinates, so no one would come to her rescue.

Karen desperately hid in the corner since there was nowhere else to hide, and she could only watch the chubby Scott walk toward her with a suffocating sense of oppression.

“You… Ah!” Karen was finally overwhelmed with fear. She rolled her eyes and passed out.

This was probably her body’s instinctive protective mechanism when overwhelmed with fear.

With a look of disgust and annoyance, Scott immediately picked up a fruit knife and stabbed Karen’s palm ruthlessly.

Pfft! Blood splattered everywhere.

“Ah!” The intense pain in Karen’s hand immediately made her wake up and remember the situation she was in. She screamed shrilly.

“If you dare to faint again, I’ll cut your face immediately!” Scott threatened coldly, immediately making Karen shut up.

Karen’s face was so pale that there was no trace of blood at all. She was so frightened and afraid of the man in front of her that she knelt on the ground without any dignity and begged for mercy sobbingly, “Sir, please let me off! I beg you! As long as you can let me off, I will be willing to be a dog and slog my guts out for you!”

Scott sneered. “You want me to let you off? How is that possible! You just saw me kill someone. If I let you off, wouldn’t I be finding trouble for myself?”

Karen hurriedly assured, “No, no, no! I definitely won’t say a word about it! I didn’t see anything! I really didn’t! I don’t even know who you are, so how could I possibly say anything about you? Besides… I… really don’t know you. You’ve caught the wrong person…”

She was really about to go crazy. She had been living a mediocre life, and at most, she only knew a few rich women with whom she often played cards and went on shopping trips. The last time she saw a lot of big shots was at Dylan’s wedding. She really didn’t know when she offended such a terrifying person!

Scott had a sinister look on his face as he said, “Hah, it’s true that we don’t know each other. But you can only blame yourself for being Lucas Gray’s mother-in-law. If you want to blame someone, blame him. When you die, look for him. Don’t get the wrong person!”

Then he raised the pistol in his hand again and aimed the muzzle at Karen’s head. Once he gently pulled the trigger, Karen’s head would immediately be blown up like a watermelon.

Karen’s hatred for Lucas rose to the peak at this moment. She never thought that the hopeless disaster she was now facing was also caused by that damn Lucas Gray.

But she was really wronged!

“Wait… wait! I’m wronged!” Karen yelled in panic, afraid that Scott would immediately shoot her dead. She frantically said, “Although Lucas Gray is my son-in-law, he’s also my enemy! I’ve always looked at him with displeasure and always wanted to drive him out of my family. I’m definitely not on his side!

“You hate him too? It just happens that I can help you deal with him! Please don’t kill me because of him!”

Only then did Scott deliberately say, “Is that so? But I don’t trust you. Besides, you’re just a stupid woman. What can you do to help me?”

Karen was really anxious because she knew that if she couldn’t show how useful she was, she would only die.

The man in front of her was like a menacing ghost who killed without hesitation. He wouldn’t care about her life at all.

“I… I can do whatever you want me to! I… know some things about Lucas Gray, and I can tell you all about them! And I can also be your slave and dog! I’ll do whatever you want! Please don’t kill me!” Karen begged bitterly, afraid that Scott wouldn’t believe her. She even knelt on the ground and began kowtowing.

“Want to be my dog? Haha, interesting. Try doing it. If I’m not satisfied, I’ll kill you immediately!” Scott said with great interest.

Seemingly finding a straw to clutch at, Karen immediately knelt on the ground and barked like a dog. “Woof! Woof woof!”

Karen’s barking was really realistic, and she did sound like a dog.

“Hahahahaha!” Scott burst into laughter while the others in the hall guffawed too.

At this moment, Scott’s heart was full of a twisted sense of satisfaction. Lucas Gray is so arrogant and aloof. If he finds out that his own mother-in-law is acting like a dog and wagging her tail in front of me, how would he feel?

With an inflated and distorted sense of satisfaction, Scott sat down on the couch next to him with one leg crossed over the other. “On account of your sincerity, I’ll spare you. But from now on, remember that you’re just a dog to me!”

Hearing that she finally had a chance to live, Karen didn’t care about anything else and simply nodded in agreement. “Yes, yes! From now on, I am your dog, Master. I will do whatever you tell me to do!”

Scott was naturally very satisfied.

The reason that he went through all the trouble of capturing Karen from Lucas was naturally not because he just wanted to kill her.

She was an extremely crucial part of his plan to deal with Lucas from now on.

What he did just now was meant to frighten Karen and make her feel too scared to disobey him!

Sitting on the couch with his legs crossed, Scott commanded, “Shameless dog, immediately crawl over and lick my shoes clean!”

At this moment, Karen had completely lost all her dignity, and she obediently crawled over like a dog on all fours while barking. After crawling to Scott, she hesitated for a moment before immediately sticking out her tongue to lick his leather shoes.

As Scott looked at the cheap and shameless woman in front of him licking his shoes vigorously, an evil fire surged in his heart.

Although Karen was almost fifty years old, she had never suffered much in her life and usually lived comfortably. She spent loads of money on beauty products to upkeep her youth and looks, so she was still rather pretty. He was quite attracted to her.
