Unfinished Business with You

Chapter 1212

Chapter 1212 Fearsome

Damian had already suffered two stabs and had bled out for a long time. His nerves were so tense that a tightrope walker could probably use it as a stage for their performance. So, when Alex stabbed him again, he was in such agony that he rolled his eyes back and fell into a dead faint.

Alex simply snorted and harshly tugged the dagger out, proceeding to wipe it on Damian's shirt. Then, he went to the bathroom and filled a basin of water before unceremoniously dumping it all on Damian's head.

Damian, who had just lost consciousness, was forced to wake up again thanks to the icy cold water sluicing down his body.

His first sensation was pain. There wasn't a spot on his body that wasn't hurting.

The only unharmed arm he had left had no idea which part to favor: the other arm or the legs.

He wasn't the sort of person who would make a fuss at the smallest hints of pain. He was also used to getting beaten up by people over the years, but he never saw someone as cruel as Alex. Alex was gunning for his life!

"Be honest. Whom in Double Dragon Court do you frequently contact?" Alex demanded.

He was just testing Damian at this point because he didn't know the truth behind the incident back then. However, he could guess that since Jewel ended up in Double Dragon Court, there was no doubt that Double Dragon Court had something to do with all this.

Damian shivered. He was already cold, and he didn't know that it could get worse. After he was splashed by ice-cold water, the chill managed to penetrate his bones and caused them to ache.

He didn't want to reveal anything. If he did, he would lose the only thing he could depend on. Unfortunately, if he didn't, he might lose his life right now.

After he frantically pondered over his options, he finally decided to confess. "I'll tell the truth, so let me go."

At that moment, Alex was even more confident about the guesses he had as he scoffed. "Do you think you're in a position to negotiate with me?"

Damian looked at Alex dumbly. Why would he spill the beans if his freedom wasn't guaranteed?

If he revealed the truth, no one would avenge him. Even if there was a slim possibility that he could make it out alive, Phantom wouldn't go easy on him. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

He hadn't had time to analyze the pros and cons of telling the truth when he heard Alex speaking.

"The casino is Double Dragon Court's property. If the person was powerful enough to instruct the bodyguards to detain you, and also owe my friend a favor. I'd say that they're probably some higher- ups of the casino. By the looks of it, you've been contacting him, haven't you?"

When Damian heard that, his heart sank. He was done for. Even if he didn't die by Alex's hand, Phantom wouldn't let him off the hook either.

To be fair, he had never spilled the beans! Everything Alex discovered was a result of his deduction.

This man was too fearsome. He was smart and cruel to boot!

Fortunately, he didn't have a father. Otherwise, he'd be winning by spades and leaving absolutely nothing for the rest.

Alex stared at Damian's expression before inquiring sharply, "How did you get involved with each other?"

Damian knew that he would be done for anyway, so he decided that he might as well make himself comfortable now. So, he said nonchalantly, "If that's the conclusion of your reasoning, then so be it. After all, I'm in your hands. Just say whatever suits you."

Alex wasn't in a hurry either. His tone remained leisurely as he drawled, "If I can find out that you're contacting a higher-up of the casino, do you think I won't be able to find out the rest? Still, I'm afraid you won't be able to keep the only unharmed limb you have."

Damian instantly grew anxious as he stuttered, "I-If you can figure everything out, why would you even ask me in the first place? You could just kill me."

Alex's cold eyes glinted with a sharp gleam, but a cruel smile appeared on his lips. "It'd be too easy if I just killed you. I want you to experience pain! Even! Worse! Than! Death!"

Every emphasis in his sentence was like a nail driven right through Damian's heart. Only a panicked look remained on Damian's pale face. When he saw the dagger in Alex's hand aiming at him again, he panicked and shrieked, "I'll tell you everything! What do you want to know?!"
