His Domineering Lover

Aleigha did not want to die, neither did she want to be indecently assaulted again.

Her mind was racing. If she had any other choices, she wouldn't exact her revenge in such an underhand way.

But both her life and Adrian's were hanging by a thread now.

The situation was too pressing to let scruples get in the way.

Lionel narrowed his eyes and looked even fiercer.

Without any sign of relenting, he even pushed the muzzle against Aleigha's forehead with more strength.

"You should be careful with what you say. Emilia is my nephew," he said with an edge to his voice.

It was ludicrous to see a scum pretending to be decent.

"Then go ahead and shoot. My death won't change the fact that you have to see her get married and give children to another man."

Aleigha felt the muzzle was slightly shaking. Her words worked.

"Oh, save your know-it-all crap. Emilia is the daughter of the Gardner family. Who do you think you are?"

"Listen, you'll die today. It's a pity that I can't make Adrian die with you. Emilia likes him."

It seemed that he didn't knowAleigha was a Gardner too.

Adrian fought his way out and ran toward them.

Lionel watched him approaching and a vicious smile flashed through his face.

"Mr. Xiao, since this woman is very important to you, what about making a deal with me?"

Adrian stopped in his tracks, his eyes fastened on Aleigha's face which was smeared with dirt and blood.

"Let her go and take me. You can have as much money as you want."

Adrian said calmly.

"Sorry but I'm greedier than that. I want both her and the money."

Lionel had been despised by those from the upper class for being a parasite of the Gardner family.

Now that Adrian had fallen into his hands, there was no way he would make things easy for him.

"Adrian, leave. They want me. It's none of your business."

She didn't want to owe him.

"Would you shut up?"

Adrian fumed with anger.

Aleigha bit her lip tightly and soon tasted blood on her tongue.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

She did not understand why Adrian would risk his life to save her.

"Take him down!" Lionel ordered.

Adrian didn't resist this time and was quickly tied up with his hands on his back. "Get up, girl. Your hero has given up." Lionel gave Aleigha a kick on her side. Aleigha got up and was thrown into a car with Adrian.

Those thugs covered their eyes and Adrian was oddly quiet during the whole process.

Aleigha knew where Lionel was taking them.

But what concerned her more was Adrian's silence. She wondered if he was injured.

Just now she had seen blood over his white T-shirt.

She was worried that he might have torn his old injuries.

"Adrian?" She called him.

Adrian heard her voice and leaned towards her.

"You owe me this time," he said in a muffled voice.

"I asked you to leave!" She shouted quietly, "Do you think we can escape?"

In her last life, if Emilia had changed

her mind at the last minute and released her, but this time Adrian was involved, there was no telling what would happen.

The man didn't answer her. Instead, he pressed his body against hers.

"Hey! It's not a good time to be frivolous!" Aleigha was exasperated.

Without responding to her, Adrian maneuvered to get his hands out of the rope.

Though his eyes had been covered, he had a strong sense of direction and knew where they were.

He then

After that, there was no sound of him again.

Just as Aleigha was to ask what he was doing, she was yanked into a broad chest.

She wriggled as she felt his warm breath against her neck but the man's gentle voice stilled her.

"Don't move. I just sent the location out," he then chuckled, "Nice hiding spot by the way."

Aleigha blushed at the lingering touch of his palms on her waist.

"You're in good shape, but a little thin. I'll see to it that you gain some weight after we leave here."

"You're so...!"

But she didn't finish her words.

The car stopped and she was dragged out, thrown to the ground.

One thug took off the cloth on her eyes and sudden brightness made Aleigha squint. When her eyes got used to the new change, she found them in a room.

She hastily turned to look at Adrian, only to find his hands were still tied.

Nothing seemed to have happened.

"You will stay here until I get the money," Lionel said.

Before he left, he gave Aleigha an unspeakable smile, which was reminiscent of what he had done in her previous life.

Aleigha trembled as he banged the door close.

Adrian quickly got up and loosened his rope before he walked toward Aleigha and freed her hands.

"You stupid woman, if you had run faster, you wouldn't have ended up here."

Aleigha cast a scornful glance at him and retorted, "If you had left when I asked you, you wouldn't have ended up here too."

"You ungrateful little thing. Shouldn't you spend the rest of your life paying me back?"

"Bah, I would rather spend the rest of my life with a beggar."
