“After so many years, the time has finally come.” Toby was thrilled when he could relive the hatred in
him freely, for he had a hard time suppressing it.
“Also, why didn’t you insist on eating at that table? If you had brought her there, I wouldn’t have
drugged the food.” He was unhappy that he had wasted his ingredients.
Jaxon, who was smiling wickedly before, regained his composure and said faintly, “It’s fine. She’s now
unconscious, anyway.”
“You did great this time, kid. Now, our family will be able to get our revenge!” said Toby.
Hearing his words, Jaxon asked, “I still don’t understand. You kept telling me that it was Elspeth who
wiped out the Wilcox Family, but you never told me the reason why.” As he spoke, he thought about her
smile. Although she is quite an evil character, she couldn’t have killed my entire family.
“You’ll understand it when the time comes. I want you to know that to bring back the Wilcox Family’s
reputation, we have to kill her. Only when we take over Evil Wind Sect will our deceased family
members be at ease.”
As he spoke, Jaxon already knew what he was thinking. After all, Toby had been eyeing Evil Wind Sect
for a long time. Now that Elspeth had been drugged, he couldn’t even hide the smile on his face.
“What are you going to do next?” he asked.
When Toby heard his words, he thought carefully about it. Although Elspeth is wearing light makeup
and comfy clothes, she is still quite the beauty…
“Stand outside and guard this place. I’ll kill her without anyone’s knowledge by using hydrogen fluoride.
As soon as she dissolves into a puddle of bloody water, no one will be able to find her!” he said half-
truthfully.

When Jaxon heard his words, he didn’t want to guess if Toby was lying or not. He just felt pity for
Elspeth. With that, he stood up and left after giving a final pitiful glance to Elspeth, who remained
unconscious.
Just as he left, Elspeth immediately opened her eyes.
In the meantime, Toby was about to touch her. When he saw that she had opened her eyes, he thought
he had not used enough dosage and would drug her again. However, Elspeth kicked him before he
could even act. Her movements were fast, and he was kicked in the shin.
“You!” Toby crouched and covered his wounded leg as he howled in pain.
“Stop groaning. I’ll throw you outside if you keep doing that.” As Elspeth spoke, she rubbed her wrists
as they were getting sore from lying on the table.
“How is this possible? Why are you still awake?” At this moment, Toby was dumbfounded. After all, he
had told Jaxon to watch her swallow the food. Moreover, his drugs were the real deal. Thus, he couldn’t
understand why this was happening.
“Of course, I’m still awake. I’ll be long dead if I’m not cautious around people like you. Moreover, how
could I overlook the hatred in your eyes when it was blatantly obvious?”
Fortunately, Elspeth had not swallowed the food since she had taken precautions. Instead, she hid it in
her mouth, lay her head between her arms, and immediately spat under the table when the duo was
talking. Since no one had noticed her, Toby didn’t catch it either.
“Although I have underestimated you, it doesn’t matter. This is my base camp. I can do whatever I
want.”
Since Jaxon was still outside, Toby felt he had a higher chance of subduing her.
“Why don’t you try and see?” Elspeth was not afraid of him. After all, she had a tracking GPS on her. If
she were to stay in here for too long, the shadow guards would come in and look for her. At that
moment, she wouldn’t be afraid if Jaxon called his men to assist, for she would be the final winner.
“Hah! Since you are so confident in yourself, I will not hesitate anymore!” Toby, who was still smiling,
immediately turned cold and struck her.
Is he going to slap me? Elspeth thought as she avoided his attack. Then, she grabbed his wrist and
forcefully pushed him away. Toby used much of his strength to stop himself from falling, but he smiled
all of a sudden.
It worked.
Before Elspeth was able to breathe a sigh of relief, she felt her body weakening, and she couldn’t
muster up any strength.
“What have you drugged me again with?”
“Since you don’t know about it, you’ll take these secrets to the grave.” Toby smiled coldly.
She is too dangerous. Initially, I was going to have some fun with her, but I think it’s best if I kill her now.
As he thought about it, he took out a knife and slowly walked toward her.
Suddenly, a stir sounded outside. Toby was unhappy that someone had ruined his mood. Then, he
glanced at the door and decided to end things quickly. At that moment, the wooden door seemed to
have been kicked by someone as it shook violently.
In that split second, Toby decided not to kill her as he placed the knife against her face. “It seems that
someone’s here for you, Elspeth. Why don’t we guess who it is? Is it your husband? Say, won’t it be fun
if I slit your throat right in front of him? I wonder if he will still love you after your face is ruined.”

Elspeth glared at him and said, “Just do whatever you want, you coward. You are disgusting.”
The smile on Toby’s face vanished when he heard her words. “Fine, then. Since you are ungrateful, I
might as well kill you as you wish!” Then, he raised the knife and aimed it at her shoulder.
Bang! At this moment, the door burst open, and the sudden light blinded Toby, making him miss as he
stabbed the chair. Just as he was about to take it out, Callum entered the place. Then, he grabbed a
plate from the table and crashed it against Toby’s head.
The plate hit Toby’s eyes, and he screamed in agony as he threw away the knife.
On the other hand, Callum helped Elspeth get up and sat her by the chair. However, he was rough with
her, seemingly as if he was getting revenge.
As Elspeth thought about it, she instantly knew why he was angry. I’m just eating with someone. How
petty of him!
Instead of leaving with her, he picked up the knife and slowly approached Toby, who was still moaning
in pain.
“Were you trying to kill Elspeth?” As he spoke, he was playing with the knife. The knife shimmered
coldly as he fiddled with it.
No matter how confident Toby was before, he couldn’t utter a word at this moment. It felt like a cat had
gotten his tongue as he was being terrorized.
“Please don’t kill me…” he begged miserably. He never expected Callum would arrive so quickly and
barge into his place when he initially thought of threatening Callum, the most famous man in Damoria,
to test his strength. However…
“You aren’t afraid of death, are you?” Callum’s cold voice, which was filled with killing intent, sounded.
