Silly Bride

Chapter 256

key because she was afraid Christopher really would suffocate her, killing her in a painful manner. Of course, she didn’t want to die. She still wanted to live and find her grandfather, after all.A plan was even formulated in her mind, which involved her ambushing him from behind when he grabbed the key to rescue Winnie.However, she quickly realized that was a stupid plan. Why should I wait until he grabbed the key before I retaliate? He’s injured! He’s about to die from massive blood loss! There’s no reason for me to be afraid of him. Do I have a loose screw in my head? Based on how much effort it took him to stand up earlier, I bet the strength he’s using to grab my neck is probably all the energy he has left.When Yulissa’s train of thought ended there, she suddenly smiled.There was no longer any fear in her heart as she stared at Christopher.She held his arms tightly before abruptly raising her knee and ramming it right into the wound on his abdomen.That was his most severe wound. She believed he would go down soon if she continued to attack the same spot.Truthfully, her strategy was effective.Christopher’s body was no more than an empty shell by that point. He had expended all the strength left in his body when he grabbed Yulissa earlier.After being kicked by her twice, his body couldn’t hold up any longer, and he dropped to the ground.As she watched him collapse in front of her, she temporarily stopped moving her leg.Yulissa gently touched her neck, which was almost crushed by Christopher’s hand, and sneered, “Come on! Suffocate me! Where did the strength you muster earlier go? Stand back up, Christopher!”Holding his wound and curling up on the ground, he muttered intermittently, “Let her go… You can do whatever you want with me, either beating me up or suffocating me… Just let her go…”She cackled as she caressed her neck in anger. “Let her go?”Then she couldn’t help but kick him again and roared, “You two sure have a telepathic connection! She asked me to let you go, and you’re asking me to let her go! Do you think it’s even possible?”With every sentence she uttered, Yulissa gave Christopher a violent kick. “Why should I let her go? Do you think I like her as you do? I hate her! I wish she would die! Do you know you two are making things very difficult for me? Earlier, she was crying and begging me to let you go, and now, you’re asking me to release her. What should I do, hmm? How about you teach me what to do?”The more she thought about it, the more furious she became. Why is there always someone trying to save Winnie whenever she’s in danger? Why is Christopher trying to kill me in the end, even though I risked my life to provide so many leads to him?“Are all you men sick in the head, Christopher? Why are you all so willing to give your life to save her? You were doing it, and Xavier did too, although Xavier ultimately got her hand in marriage. But what about you? What did you get from her? A look? A few words of comfort? Is your brain all messed up? Is it worth it? How about this?” Yulissa let out a huge sigh. “I’ll give you a choice. You can beg me to send you to the hospital. I’ll find you the best doctor and the best place to recuperate. As for this woman, I’ll stop torturing her, but I will keep her locked up in here and let her fend for herself. If she’s lucky, someone may find this room and bring her out of here. Of course, if she’s not, she may die of thirst and hunger.”Her mind had already fallen into madness as she squatted down and slowly supported Christopher up. “If you kneel in front of me and beg me now, I’ll take you to a hospital. I promise.”It was then Yulissa helped him up and put him in a kneeling position.Staring at her twisted face, he was suddenly amused. “You’re such a pitiful woman. Do you want someone to kneel before you that badly? I’m afraid I’ll disappoint you because I’m not going to do that.”“Why?” Yulissa grabbed his short hair, forcefully lifting his head. “Don’t you want to live?”A cold smile formed on Christopher’s face. “The ugly, twisted expression on your face and your crazy obsession have told me everything I need to know. No matter what I do, you’re going to make sure I suffer. In that case, there’s no need for me to sell out my dignity in front of you.”“Oh? You’re saying I’m ugly and twisted, is it?” His words maddened her.Then, she forcefully struck his head against the wall, each strike harder than the one before.“You want dignity, is it? In that case, I’m going to tear your dignity away and trample on it hard!” As Yulissa spoke, she stood and grabbed a stick sitting in a corner before approaching Winnie.Winnie’s left hand was already let down by Yulissa, but her right arm was still dangling in the air.Without hesitation or delay, Yulissa swung the stick in the direction of Winnie’s right arm.“Stop!” When Christopher returned to his senses, it was already too late for him to stop Yulissa.Yulissa’s stick had already landed on Winnie’s arm. It was pretty evident that, even if the attack didn’t break Winnie’s bone, it would undoubtedly fracture it.There was no way for Winnie to dodge the attack. All she could do was take it.She only groaned in pain once. No matter how painful it got afterward, she resisted the temptation to let her voice out.Yulissa was pissed off when she saw that. I want to see her begging me for mercy as I beat her up! Why is she enduring this silently? What’s the point? “Are you taunting me, Winnie? Aren’t you in pain? If you are, shout then! Cry! Let me witness your wretched death!”Winnie’s entire body was covered in sweat. She would not cry in front of Yulissa because she held back the tears generated in reaction to the pain.With clenched teeth, she glared at Yulissa and sneered, “You’re not getting anything you want from me!”“Okay then!” Yulissa’s eyes turned red from anger. “I can see you’re unwilling to give in to me. In that case, allow me to give you a taste of what it’s like to have your entire body beaten blue and black. I will make you suffer the pain I once endured.”“No! I beg you!” Right as she was about to strike Winnie again, Christopher suddenly struggled to sit straight up. He pleaded, “I’ll kneel and
