He sneered but elaborated no further.
“You want to renege on the promise?”
“Yes, I do.” A smile curled Hades’ lips, but it was a smile of evil; a smile of the devil.
“We signed an agreement, and we clearly agreed that you can’t renege.” Selena stood her ground.She knew Hades wasn’t exactly nice, so she obeyed his every order over the last few years for fearthat she would anger him. Of course, Selena knew how far Hades could go.
“Hah!” Hades leaned back on his chair and roared in laughter. “We signed an agreement? Sue methen.”
Selena knew that agreement had no binding power in legal terms, for it was done on goodwill andfaith. Thus, she could do nothing about it if Hades wanted to break the promise.
“I’ll renege whenever I want. What can you do about it?”
“You b*stard!” Selena shot up and pushed down against the table. “Hades! I did everything youasked, including that S-class mission! Why are you doing this?”
Hades smirked, a cunning light gleaming in his eyes. “And that’s why I don’t want to let you go.You’re my best disciple. I can’t let you go just like that.”
Selena closed her eyes, holding her fury back. When she opened her eyes again, her gaze turnedgentle. “I’m different from everyone here. I have Juniper, so just let me go. Let me and Juniper liveour lives normally.” He was the devil, and his castle was hell. Selena knew she couldn’t let Juniperlive in this place for life. The moment she set foot in this place back then, she had wanted to leave.novelbin
In response, Hades sneered. “This is the price you must pay for the choice you made.”
His nonchalant attitude finally made Selena snap. Her anger flared, and she felt hatred for him. Shehated him for playing her like a fool, then Selena slapped him. “Why?! You think you’re a god? Youthink you can control everyone as you please?! I did what you asked me to! What else do youwant?”
Everyone downstairs looked upstairs after hearing Selena shouting, including Juniper. Seeing that,Barbie quickly picked her up. “Wanna see the doggy, Juniper? I’ll take you to him.” Behind her, Kenfollowed in haste.
Back in the room, Hades stared back at Selena, but instead of a dangerous gaze, there wastenderness in his eyes. As for Selena, she was still in a rage. “What will it take for you to let us go,Hades? I thought you said you like Juniper a lot! Do you think Juniper’s going to grow up well livinghere with me? She’s just a child! My life’s ruined, but I don’t want hers to be as well!”
Hades had forgotten about the fact that Selena was a mother, and he underestimated what parentscould do for their children.
After Selena had finished ranting, she hung her head low. “Please, just let us go. I beg you. If youthink I haven’t done enough, then just give me another S-class mission. One final S-class mission.”
Their missions were separated into three categories based on their difficulty: S-class, A-class, andB-class. S-class missions were the highest ranked and the toughest among all missions. A-classmissions would take up most of the missions in most cases, while B-class missions could be donesolo. However, S-class missions needed one leader and everyone else as assistants.
“Very well then.”
His answer made her look up slowly. He agreed. He actually agreed to let me go!
