Chapter 1121 She Saves A Life
Chapter 1121 She Saves a Life
In the evening, a slightly desolate sound of birds returning to their nests could be heard in the distance. Casper let out a low moan and slowly woke up from his unconsciousness. As he opened his eyes, a sudden wave of pain swept through his body, causing him to curl up involuntarily. However, as he moved his body, the pain in his wound intensified.
Casper couldn't feel better when Lauren made a move, and his subordinates didn't use ordinary whips either. That short whip was covered with tiny barbs, and the skin that was hit by the whip was all torn, and the bones were almost visible.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
"Are you awake?" A familiar and cold voice shattered Casper's pain, making him almost doubt if he had been in so much pain that he had gone insane.
Struggling to lift his head, Casper saw Lucia's cold but still stunning face reflected in his eyes, with Kane and several men standing beside her.
All the memories came back in a flash. He talked to her alone after the symposium, and then she left, and he fell into a coma. When he woke up again, his eyes were covered with blindfolds. Before he could speak, the whip fell mercilessly on him, until he fell into a coma again.
It was done by her!
"Lucia, how dare you!" In an instant, humiliation and anger overshadowed the pain. Casper glared fiercely at Lucia, his voice harsh as if it had been chewed up and spat out.
"I've known for a long time that you never truly respected me. It's ironic now to think about how you used to call me Ms. Webb." Lucia sat leisurely in her chair, with the sunset casting a warm glow on her in the heavenly realm. The supposed warm shade of yellow now appeared very cold.
"Respect you?!" Casper was furious, completely unaware that his hands had already been untied and the blindfold removed. All he could think about was his anger towards Lucia.
"I really didn't expect that you would play such dirty tricks! Lucia, in fact, you, like Nia, have always wanted my life, right?!"
Casper even wondered if she already knew his true identity?!
Kane, standing beside Lucia, couldn't bear it any longer and spoke coldly, "Casper, before you start insulting others, make sure you understand your own situation first. Otherwise, you will regret it."
"What do I regret! I..." Casper raised his hand and realized it had regained its freedom. He was stunned for a moment.
Although he was still paralyzed on the ground, his body was clearly no longer restrained. Even the cunning Casper cannot figure out what was going on right now.
Just then, a group of people slowly walked out from the inner room. Before Casper could even see who they were, a cry of surprise had already pierced his eardrums.
"Mr. Wood! What's wrong with you!" The person who shouted was Leon. Seeing Casper's distressed appearance, he rushed over anxiously. At first glance, there was not much good about the skin and flesh on his body.
Casper ignored Leon and stared straight at Miles, who had already walked to the courtyard.
What on earth was going on?! Casper's brain capacity can't handle it anymore.
"Ms. Webb, thank you." Miles gave Casper a glance and was the first to thank Lucia.
"You're welcome. If I didn't come, that guy named Leon probably wouldn't give up easily," Lucia mocked as she looked at Leon.
Leon's face changed and he couldn't speak.
"Leon, what's going on?" Casper rarely showed a bewildered expression as he turned to stare at Leon.
Leon stole a glance at Lucia and then explained,
"Today I waited for you in the conference room but couldn't find you. Later, I found your phone in the atrium of the conference building. I thought that Ms. Webb had kidnapped you, so I went to Webbex Group to confront her. However, it was my impulsiveness that caused a misunderstanding with Ms. Webb. We kept searching for you everywhere until Mr. Wood Senior received a call from Ms. Webb in the afternoon saying that she had rescued you."
While explaining, Leon secretly hinted that he had realized his offense to Lucia.
However, Leon's explanation was not enough to dispel Casper's doubts. After listening, Casper turned his head to look at Lucia and hesitated for a moment before saying,
"Ms. Webb... what is going on here?"
Lucia stood up slowly and glanced at Miles without leaving a trace before saying,
"I came back from the conference building. It didn't take long for your subordinates to come to Webbex Group to make trouble. At that time, I was really upset. Isn't it ridiculous to slander me and kidnap you? But although his behavior is very annoying, it also let me know the fact that you were kidnapped. You don't need to question Arthur and my strength. I have my own reasons for saving you. I got the whereabouts of the vehicle that kidnapped you soon, so I chased it all the way. When I arrived, I saw only a few foreign men. As soon as they saw me bringing people, they immediately withdrew. It seemed that they had no intention of harming your life. They just made you suffer a little, and then... I notified Mr. Wood."
Listening to Lucia's words, Casper was full of doubts. The first was why Lucia saved him when she could have ignored it, and the second was since she had already saved him, why did she wait for Miles to come? He suffered such a serious injury. Couldn't she just send him to the hospital?
However, one thing Casper was certain of was that when he heard the words "foreign men," he already knew who had kidnapped him!
Nia! Casper's eyes almost bled!
"It's Lauren!" Leon exclaimed, but in the next second, he was fiercely glared at by Casper.
He didn't want Lucia to notice the existence of someone like Lauren.
But fortunately, Lucia seemed indifferent. She turned to Miles and said, "Mr. Wood, I'll leave him to you," then turned to Kane and said, "Kane, let's go."
"Wait!" Casper quickly stopped Lucia.
"What?" Lucia smiled with a hint of frost in her eyes. "Are you apologizing for your offensive words just now?"
Casper's expression suddenly became complicated. He had indeed been too impulsive just now. In fact, upon closer inspection, it could be seen that Lucia had no reason to kidnap him at all. So he apologized honestly,
"Ms. Webb, I'm sorry for what I said earlier out of confusion but I still have some questions that I hope you can answer."
At this point, Leon had helped Casper stand up as his body felt weak and wobbly; however he still stared intently at Lucia without blinking an eye.
"Speak." Lucia was straightforward.
So Casper voiced his doubts,
"Why did you save me? If you're willing to intervene, why not take me back directly instead of waiting for my father?"
