the helper immediately looked embarrassed. ” miss luo, our young master is very busy. after sending you back yesterday, he was called away by the old master … “
“is that so?” luo chenxi sneered. it was apparent that she did not believe the female servant’s words. ” so, you’re saying that cyril has a guilty conscience and doesn’t dare to show up in front of me? “
“why would i? “the young master really just had something to do …” the maid explained with a dry smile.
“in that case, i understand,” luo chenxi said indifferently.
the female servant thought that she had successfully convinced luo chenxi. she had just heaved a sigh of relief when she saw luo chenxi turn her wrist. she picked up the fruit knife on the table and placed it on her wrist when the female servant was not paying attention.
the maid was shocked. ” miss luo, you … what are you doing?! “
luo chenxi said coldly, ” get cyril to come and see me! otherwise, i think he wouldn’t want to end up with a corpse after painstakingly bringing me from the mu family to this island, right?”
the maid looked at her in panic and tried to persuade her with a trembling voice, ” “miss … miss luo, please don’t … don’t be impulsive! there’s … there’s no need to do this. put down the knife first …”
although she sounded like she was trying to persuade her, she was actually concentrating on luo chenxi’s hand. she was waiting for the right opportunity to snatch the fruit knife from luo chenxi’s hand.
however, luo chenxi saw through her thoughts at one glance. her hand that was holding the handle of the knife was unusually steady. she even pressed it down a little.
the skin on her entire body was fair and delicate, especially on her wrists.
her snow white wrist was lightly cut by the blade, and a bloody mark immediately appeared, like a plum blossom blooming on the snow. the strong contrast was even more shocking.
the female servant did not expect that a beautiful and gentle-looking girl like luo chenxi would be so ruthless to her. she would stab her without any hesitation!
for a moment, he was completely frightened by her. he was afraid that she would continue to attack him, so he quickly said, ” ” miss luo, don’t … don’t be impulsive. i … i’ll help you find the young master now. really, ma … i’ll go right away … “
after the maid finished speaking, she ran out of the door.
pAn,D a-n0ve1,c-o-m half an hour later, cyril appeared in the room.
luo chenxi clenched the fruit knife in her hand tightly. she was on full alert. she dared not relax at all. she was thinking of how to intimidate cyril so that she could get information out of him.
however, cyril only glanced at her before sneering. ” “luo chenxi, stop putting on an act. put down the knife. we all know that you’ll never commit suicide. i didn’t come here because i was afraid that you would commit suicide.”
the expression on luo chenxi’s face did not change at all. she raised her chin. how do you know it’s impossible? after all, if i die, you won’t be able to carry out any of your plans. so, it’s worth it for me to die here.”
cyril’s gaze fell on her flat belly, which had yet to bulge, and he said indifferently, ” i believe that you have the courage to fight to the death, but it’s a pity that you’re pregnant. even the most brutal tigress has the instinct to protect her cubs. would you commit suicide at this time?”
luo chenxi’s expression changed ever so slightly upon hearing his words. she knew that it was impossible for her to deceive him anymore. she put down the knife and said straightforwardly, ” “cyril, the person i saw yesterday was my mommy, right?”
