Chapter 124: To see my mother
Lillian, sensing her brother’s displeasure, attempted to leave before he could confront her. However, Magnus intercepted her, seizing her throat.
"Ahh!" Lillian gasped, struggling to break free, clutching at his hand.
Norman and Elliot watched in a gape as Magnus revealed this side of himself, fearing they could be his next targets. If Magnus couldn’t show mercy to his own sister, they realized, there was little hope for gentleness toward anyone else.
"Didn’t I tell you not to force your nose in my matters? It seems you have a death wish, Dear Sister!" Magnus said with an intimidating gaze.
"Magnus!" Alora called his name out and rushed to them. She held his wrist, asking him to leave Lillian. "She’s your sister. Let her go," she implored, managing to pull his hand away as Lillian struggled for air.
Witnessing her brother’s callousness, Lillian was horrified. Her brother was insane. How could he be willing to harm his own sister?
Tobias entered the drawing room, greeted by a distressing sight that unfolded before him.
"I’ll inform Mother about this," Lillian threatened, her eyes brimming with tears.
"Don’t use Mother’s name as a threat," Magnus retorted sharply. "And who are you to meddle in my affairs? Don’t pretend to be the epitome of innocence. I know your intentions and what you’ve been scheming, bringing those two humans here," he accused as he skeptically glanced at her.
