Chapter 288 Five Years Ago 4

No one dared to disobey when Miss Scott spoke.

The maids took a step forward, but then promptly withdrew.

Boris looked up at Ziana.

The latter had a faint expression, and those beautiful eyes were filled with the pride.

She said to him, “If you want to leave, you have to rely on your own strength, but right now it seems like you can’t even stand up.”

Boris pursed his lips and tried to get up, but the result was not satisfactory.

He didn’t have the strength to move anymore, so he simply resigned himself to staying still, only using his silent, dark eyes to stare at the young girl intently.

However, Ziana smiled.

This smile made her coldness disappear, and instead, it was replaced by a charm that should not have belonged to someone of her age.

She walked up to him and crouched down, meeting his gaze. “The doctor’s report showed that you were injected with a high concentration of drugs, and there are also multiple signs of fighting on your body. Therefore, I think you must have had an accident and were designed to end up in a situation where you had to take a blind

gamble.”

Boris looked at her with a gaze that was a bit more probing.

“I’m not wrong, am I?” Although it was a question, Ziana continued without waiting for his answer. “The other party targeted you with deadly intent, and it must have been with a purpose. If you go back now, you will have a tough battle to fight. But you can’t even stand, let alone walk. With this appearance, aren’t you just going to offer your head on a platter? If I were you, I wouldn’t go back. I would hide here, find out the situation outside, and make other plans.”

She clapped her hands and asked the maids to bring over a tablet. Then, she sat on the ground and asked him what his name was.

Boris was still lost in her words and replied casually, “Boris.”

“Ok.”

On a strange webpage, Ziana entered his name, and soon a bunch of information popped

“Yes,” he confirmed.
