Chapter 1198

Liam was slightly surprised. He did not expect the weak and child-like Amber to show such

a tough side. He immediately put away the dagger and said firmly, “Don’t joke around like

that. Aren’t you worried that I might actually take you as a hostage?”

Amber was very naive. Her eyes were pure and clear as she said, “I think it’s worth it even if

you hold me as a hostage in exchange for your beloved woman!”

“Silly child. You should know your worth.” Liam would never use such an immoral tactic,

even if he was left with no options.

He looked around. Although those two guards had been sent away, they were still following

them from afar. All the exits were guarded too, so it would be practically impossible to save

Renee under the guards’ strict monitoring.

“Gem… Amber… Forget about the hostage plan. Can you take me to the dungeon to see my

girlfriend?” Liam was helpless, and this was the only way he could think of. Amber was the

only one on his side that had a bit of status in the whole fort.

“The dungeon is very dangerous, so my father prohibits me from going there… but if you

want to see her, I can take you there.” Amber nibbled her lip nervously as she made up her

mind, then led Liam to the dungeon. She knew her father would be angry and punish her,

but she wanted to do whatever she could to help Liam.

The dungeon was located in a very remote place, and was guarded all around. Generally,

one would only be locked there if Benjamin wanted to sentence them to death or sell them

to others.

Currently, both Renee and Joanne were locked in there, so their fates were imaginable…

It was a dark night. The two guards were slightly tired, so they started chatting idly.

“Did you hear? Master plans to tear Joanne into pieces and sell her to someone else.

They’ll come and get her tonight.”

“Ah, how sad! She’s pretty, but she’ll soon be torn into pieces. What a pity!”

“It’s not a pity at all! If she didn’t betray him, she might be his wife now. She’s ungrateful. It

serves her right!”

Liam happened to hear their conversation, and his eyes widened in shock.” Did I hear right?

Your father wants to sell Joanne’s body parts?! Isn’t she his only female disciple? That’s too

cruel!”

With her head lowered, Amber grasped the hem of her clothes awkwardly.” Joanne is

indeed very pitiful. She did the right thing and didn’t want to conspire with my dad… I tried to

beg for mercy for her, but no one can change my dad’s mind once he decides on

something.”

At the same time, two people in lab coats and masks walked into the dungeon, carrying a

toolbox.

The guards immediately blocked their path. “Show me your pass.”

The two people showed their passes to the guards, and were allowed to enter the dungeon.

“Be quick. The items have to be delivered fresh.” The guards ordered them.

Meanwhile, Liam was terrified.

He had long heard that Benjamin was ruthless, but he had always appeared amiable. He

even took Liam in as his disciple and taught him martial arts. As a result, Liam assumed that

Benjamin was not that bad.

Now, it was clear that the man was actually a ferocious demon who had no qualms about

killing others!

The most horrible thing was that Benjamin had admired Joanne greatly in the past. She was

the one exception-his only female disciple.novelbin

Chapter 1198

Currently, Joanne was forced to have her body parts sold just because she disagreed with

Benjamin’s cruel ways. How horrible!

“They’re so used to this. Will Boss be…” Liam’s heartbeat quickened, and he did not dare to

think about it.

“No, I must save them. I can’t delay any longer!’ Driven by panic, he rushed towards the

entrance of the dungeon. Naturally, he was stopped by two guards.

“The dungeon is a restricted area. Please show me your pass.”

“I don’t have a pass!” Liam snarled coldly, “My girlfriend is in there, and I’ve come to get her

back.”

“You don’t have a pass but you want to barge into the dungeon without permission. It looks

like you’re an intruder. Well, don’t blame us for being harsh.” The guards raised their

weapons and aimed them at Liam’s head. Sometimes, there were people who tried to barge

into the dungeon like Liam was doing. It was usually quite easy to deal with them-the guards

simply pulled the trigger, dragged the body away, and threw it aside.

“What are you doing? Let go of him!” Amber quickly rushed forward and stopped the

guards.

“Miss Jenkins, we’re just doing our duty. Please cooperate,” the guards said solemnly. “You

should be aware of the rules in the fort. Anyone who wants to enter the dungeon must have

a pass. Even if it’s the master, we have to kill him if he tries to barge in without a pass.”

Benjamin had enforced that rule when he first established the fort. Their power and

influence had grown because of it, and thus, the fort had become a dangerous spot that

ordinary people dared not approach.

“Who told you I don’t have a pass?” Amber took a pass out of her bag and handed it to the

guard. “Look at it carefully… That is my dad’s exclusive pass. I can go anywhere with this,

and I can give any order I want. If you disobey me, you’re disobeying my dad.”

“Umm…” The two guards were in a dilemma. The pass was indeed the most powerful pass

in the whole fort. Guards like them, who had only a small status, had no right to doubt it, so

they could only obey her. They put down their weapons and let Liam and Amber enter the

dungeon. Right after that, they reported the incident to Benjamin.

When Benjamin’s four foster sons heard that, they became so angry that they wanted to

hack Liam into pieces.

“Master, Liam is way out of line. How dare he instigate Miss Jenkins to steal your pass! If

this goes on, she’ll even give up her life for him!” Mateo burst out furiously. He didn’t hate

Liam, it was just that he had a crush on Amber. He was worried that she might do something

more outrageous under Liam’s orders.

However, if Benjamin lost his temper, he might even punish his daughter.

“Miss Jenkins is a pure and kind woman, so she can’t be with a cunning man like Liam.

Let’s forget about our past friendship and hack Liam into pieces and sell him to others!”

Danny, Benjamin’s eldest foster son, suggested impatiently. He always thought that human

lives were worthless. Naturally, disobedient people had to be eliminated.
