She Has Three Little Treasures: Fake Heiress, Yet Captures The Tycoon's Heart-Chapter 929: Is She More Important Than His Life?
At the side, Dante Drake couldn’t hold back any longer and immediately said angrily, "What nonsense are you spouting? How could my lord possibly have killed... Alliance Leader Rivers? My master clearly doesn’t even care about his own life for the sake of Alliance Leader Rivers!"
"Oh... really?" Corvus Hades raised an eyebrow and calmly retorted, "If he doesn’t care about his life, then why won’t he step aside? Is monopolizing Leo more important than his life? Or is it just empty talk when he says he doesn’t care about his life?"
Hearing Corvus Hades’ words, Dante Drake became even more agitated.
This was obviously sophistry, just unreasonable twisting, and Dante Drake would never let this happen.
He was about to refute without hesitation, however, just as he was about to speak, Elias Hawthorne stopped him.
"Master."
Dante Drake reluctantly called out, but Elias Hawthorne’s cold expression forced him to hold his tongue.
Corvus Hades saw this, smiled, and said, "I was mistaken earlier; the Nameless Lord truly has deep feelings for Leo. I thank you on her behalf."
With that, he bypassed Elias Hawthorne and walked toward Raina North.
At this moment, Raina North was leaning back on a chair, her cheeks flushed, eyes misty, already plunged into a dazed state of consciousness.
Yet even in such a state, Raina North looked astonishingly beautiful, blending femininity with a masculine vigor that made it hard to look away.
Bang bang bang—
Corvus Hades heard his own heartbeat, and as he bent down to embrace Raina North, she suddenly opened her eyes just before he touched her.
Corvus Hades curled his lips: "Leo, you’re awake. I’ll take you back."
Saying this, he reached out again to embrace Raina North.
Raina North unhesitatingly avoided Corvus Hades’ arm: "Stay away from me."
Looking at his empty arm and then at Raina North’s expression of repulsion, Corvus Hades couldn’t help but feel discomfort in his heart. He sighed and said, "Leo, don’t make a fuss. By now, you should know it’s better for you to behave obediently."
"Better? How is it better? To fall in love with you and be with you forever?"
"Yes, isn’t that good?"
"No." Raina North said without hesitation.
Corvus Hades’ expression turned somewhat cold: "What’s not good about that? Leo, this is destiny."
"Ha! Destiny?" Raina North reached out to touch Corvus Hades’ forehead: "No fever, so why are you talking nonsense?"
Raina North’s expression gradually turned cold, her gaze sweeping over everyone present before fixing on Corvus Hades, coldly saying, "Corvus Hades, there’s something you got completely wrong; this is never destiny but just a little insect venom. Such a trivial thing can’t represent destiny."
"Oh?" Corvus Hades raised an eyebrow slightly, then suddenly reached out to grasp Raina North’s hand.
This simple clasp of the hands, skin touching skin, brought an indescribable pleasure, as if every cell in the body was dancing.
"Leo, how do you feel?"
"Feels alright."
Upon hearing this, Corvus Hades’ expression instantly became pleased. Just as he was about to say something more, Raina North said, "It’s indeed quite a remarkable bug, but no matter how remarkable, it’s still just a bug. Corvus Hades, do you know what love is?"
Corvus Hades’ face darkened slightly, his brow knitted, but he said nothing.
Raina North didn’t mind; in fact, she never intended for Corvus Hades to say anything: "I may not be from The Mirelands, but I have heard of the famous Love Venom. It’s a bug planted by the master of the Love Venom into someone they deeply love. Venerable Elder Rivers, am I right?"
