Chapter 1057: Lucky night
[FLASHBACK: SORRENTO, SUN ORGANIZATION’s MANSION]
"Ugh..." Katherine grunted. The pain in parts of her body felt paralyzing. ’No. I can’t die now.’
She tried crawling away in a futile attempt to escape. However, she knew deep in her heart this could be her end. Yet, she still tried. No matter how imbalanced and cruel she was, she was just like anybody else in the face of death.
They would kill and even torture others but were too afraid to face their deaths.
"I got to..." she trailed off when she sensed a person’s presence in her vicinity. Rolling on her back, her mouth parted, eyes wide. Katherine held her breath, staring sternly at the pair of eyes hovering over her.
For a moment, she couldn’t react and her mind just went into a blank state. All she could do was stare at the person looking down at her. The look on Dominic’s face wasn’t enough to distract her. She could only stare at his eyes, devoid of any human emotion.
Dominic just stood there beside her, looking at her as if she was a piece of meat he would never put in his dish. She had met and seen different sorts of people in the underground. Many of them were always full of emotions. Anger, joy, greed, fear... all sorts of emotions under the same circumstances were usual to be seen. But this man... he carried none of those.
The only thing she could see in him was... none.
’Don’t kill me,’ was what she wanted to tell the man. She was even prepared to beg. But alas, after looking into his eyes, she knew saying those words was futile. This man would kill her, not out of spite or anything of the sort.
