Seeing her brother actually release Holden in order to treat her foot, Isadora immediately stopped him. "Malvolio! If you release Holden, you'll be dead."Malvolio smiled and said gently, "Silly girl, I am only letting him out of the cage, but I am not setting him free. He will be able to run away. I also won't die."Isadora shook her head and there was a catch in her throat. "You can't defeat Holden. He is very vicious, and he is more skilled in combat than you. If you were to have a solo fight with him, you would not be his match. You can't take him lightly."Malvolio looked at his sister with a consoling smile. "It's fine. Don't worry. One of Holden's legs is broken now. He won't be able to exert force on it, and he won't be able to defeat me. Besides, even if he could defeat me, this island is filled with my men now, could he even escape from this island?""Malvolio, I am afraid…""Don't be afraid. I have absolute certainty that nothing would go wrong," said Malvolio.The con
Although Holden had never met his own mother, some of his preferences were very similar to her. Holden was also very gifted in design. Because of that, Sabrina's hate for Holden reduced a little.She stood outside the door and listened to the motions in the room. There was no activity inside there at all. She originally thought that Holden would create a huge ruckus after being locked in there, but as a result, he was very calm. That made Sabrina feel a little relieved.She asked Isadora to lay on the couch, then she moved a small stool over and sat in front of Isadora. After that, she let Isadora put her foot on top of her leg. Suddenly, Isadora pulled her foot back from being on top of Sabrina's leg.Sabrina looked at Isadora with confusion. "What's the matter?""You're a pregnant woman. It's already inconvenient for you to sit, to begin with. I…How can I put my foot on your body?" Isadora said coldly.Sabrina could not help but sneered. "Wow! You're quite the considerate one."
Sabrina turned around and looked at Isadora. Isadora did not have that usual viciousness and icy coldness in her gaze, and it was replaced with shyness. There was a sense of gratitude in her shyness.Sabrina sneered. "A robber's sister could show the feeling of gratitude?"Isadora instantly became exasperated. "Don’t infuriate me! Don’t think that I will spare you because you have helped me treat my wound on my foot! Also, don’t think that I can't do anything to you now that one of my feet could no longer walk! Don’t you forget that you're a pregnant woman! I can have you killed in a jiffy!"Sabrina nodded. "My bad. I thought that birds of a feather flock together. After all, it's your brother who robs, and not you. I’m sorry.""My brother also wasn't born a robber! I forbid you to criticize my brother in the future! Otherwise, I will not let you treat the wound on my foot anymore!" said Isadora sternly with her chin lifted.Sabrina looked at Isadora. "There's something wrong with
"It's because you are different from your brother and I saw that you're innocent that I am willing to help you treat the wound on your foot. Now, it seems like you’re not innocent at all! Very well! Weren't you not willing to let me treat your wound on your foot? I will not treat it!"In any case, Holden had already gotten out of the cage, so if she did not want to be treated, then so be it! Sabrina did not even look back. She just continued walking out the door."Sabrina…" This time, Isadora's tone was pitiful and helpless.Sabrina stopped in her tracks again. She turned her head around to look at Isadora, and Isadora was actually crying."Can…can you listen to me for a moment?" asked Isadora.Sabrina frowned in confusion. "What do you want to say?"Sabrina was being held hostage and she was even almost nine months pregnant. What more can Isadora tell her?"You're entitled to think of me however you want, but I knew that you were one very miserably. You were misunderstood and y
"Do you know why my brother has to kill your husband?" asked Isadora sorrowfully."What do you want to say? Are you saying that my husband has wronged your brother?" Speaking of that, Sabrina sneered. "I'm sorry. Please don’t force this kind of offense onto my husband. When your brother fled abroad back then, it was because he had already broken the law for robbery. At that time, my husband had always been abroad and had never returned to the country. My husband did not wrongly blame your brother." Sabrina said."I didn't say that your husband has wronged my brother. I'm also not saying that my brother is innocent. What I'm saying is, it was your husband who had helped Alex and almost drove my brother to his death! If it wasn't for the help your husband had given Alex, my brother would have already had Alex killed!" Isadora said coldly."But Alex also didn't wrong your brother! It was his duty to pursue and capture your brother! Could it be that your brother had broken the law, but
Malvolio's mother took him with her, and was even planning on buying a smaller house after maybe a decade and after she had earned some money. That way, both mother and son would have a place to live again. They were very optimistic about their life in the future. However, as an orphan and a widow, they were always bullied by others. It was particularly so for Malvolio, who had been naughty growing up. He had suddenly lost his father, so when he was bullied, he would not accept defeat and had always wanted to fight back. He was then beaten up by the older children till his face was all bruised and swollen.One day, when Malvolio was chased by a few older children as they wanted to beat him up, a man with a strong build helped Malvolio chase those children away, and he even personally sent Malvolio home. From that day on, that man had gotten to know Malvolio's mother. That man's name was Delmont Stevens, and he was an owner of a recycling center.Although Delmont opened a recycling ce
When Delmont saw Eirwen's appearance with disheveled hair and a knife in hand, he hated her even more. "Look at you. You don’t even look slightest bit like a lady boss! You're simply a country bumpkin! Our business is developing and growing, how can I be with a bumpkin like you? If you don’t want to get a divorce, I'll just be separated from you for two years! As long as we've been separated for two years, the court will grant us a divorce!""I'm fine to divorce! However, the factor is all mine!" said Eirwen furiously.Delmont sneered. "Eirwen, I said that you're a bumpkin, but you won't admit it! Let me tell you this then. It's already thinking too highly of you to say that you're a bumpkin! You're simply a shrew from the countryside!""I was forced by you!" Eirwen said.Delmont sneered. "Didn’t you want the factory? Here you go! Take it all! You're truly a vicious b*tch! Don’t you forget how hard it was for you back then. You didn't have a husband, you were a widow, and your son
When she was doing well, she would set up a stall on the street to help others sew and mend their clothes to help with the family expenses. When she was not doing well, she asked her two children to tie her up at home as she did not want to hurt anybody and she did not want to be sent to a psychiatric hospital. That was because once she was sent to a psychiatric hospital, her two children would no longer have a mother. Both her children would have no home to go back to. Therefore, only the two siblings, Malvolio and Eira, knew about Eirwen's mental issues.The first time Malvolio had stolen something was when he was eighteen. He had snuck into a psychiatric hospital to steal psychiatric medication. It was by a lucky chance that after his mother had taken the medication he stole for her, she clearly got better and did not have any episode for more than half a year. After that, Malvolio would steal medication for his money when nobody was around. With that, his mother's illness has impr
