“Let me in, please,” Charlotte begged as she sobbed. “There’s a wolf out here about to eat me.”

“Uh-huh,” came Zachary’s unconcerned reply. He then stood up and slowly walked away.

“Hey!” Charlotte was on the verge of breaking down. She slammed her fists on the steel gates and screamed, “You won’t just stand there and watch me die, will you? If you don’t let me in, I’ll die!”

Zachary ignored her as he continued walking into the villa.

“Zachary Nacht,” Charlotte bellowed. “You heartless animal. Karma will get you soon!”

Zachary stopped to turn and look at her. “You’re still cursing at me at a time like this?”

“D-Don’t assume I have to beg you,” Charlotte ground out. “If I die here, you’d have to bear the responsibility. If the cops come, you’ll be the primary suspect.”

“I see...” Zachary nodded solemnly. He then pointed at the surveillance camera by the gate. “See that? It will film the process of the wolf eating you. You do realize that a wolf is wild, right? I’m not the one who raised it and there is no law stating that I have to save you.”

“You-” Charlotte could not formulate a response to refute him.

“Let me teach you something,” Zachary said with a smile. “When the wolf bites you, just scream and shout like you did just now. It’ll think that you’re annoying, and it’ll snap its jaw on your throat. Blood will spurt out of you like a water fountain, and death will be instant. This way, it won’t hurt.”


Charlotte’s face turned colorless as her entire being trembled. All words died in her throat.

“I wish you a merry death. Goodbye!”

Zachary waved and turned to leave.

“Zachary Nacht!” Charlotte roared as she slammed the steel gate. “You heartless b*stard! You’ll die a horrible death!”

Awoo!

Once again, howls of wolves sounded behind her.

Charlotte immediately lost all her courage as she fell onto her knees with a thud. She wailed and pleaded, “Please save me! I don’t want to die!”

Zachary, who had his back to her, finally grinned in delight and glee.

He was even more exhilarated now than when he got a business deal worth tens of billions.

However, he was not in a rush to turn around. Instead, he took a slow step forward.

“Zachary, as long as you save me, I’ll do anything.” Charlotte cared for nothing now; staying alive was the only thought in her mind. “Give me the contract. I’ll sign it. As long as you save me, I’ll sign it.”

“Are you sure?” Zachary finally turned around. With an innocent expression on his face, he asked, “Are you going to claim that I’m forcing you again?”

“No, I won’t. I’m doing this willingly,” Charlotte guaranteed. “Let me in first. Let me in quickly. The wolf is here. It really is.”

“All right. But remember, you’re the one begging me.”

Zachary slowly raised his arm and made a gesture.

It was then the bodyguard stepped forward and opened the steel gates.
