Chapter 953

"What happened afterward?" Pearl asked, her curiosity piqued.

"I covered for Beah and helped her successfully escape to meet with Max. Then, I took a secludedpath home, one without any surveillance cameras. Even if I returned home, no one would realize Ihad left," Saule explained, a hint of nostalgia in her voice. "I wasn't afraid of being caught. At most, Iwould face a minor punishment. But I wanted to buy them more time, to make sure they couldescape far away without being discovered."

Saule continued, "Unfortunately, I ran into someone on my way home." Her expression darkened asshe recounted the encounter.

Pearl knew what kind of unspeakable thing had happened the moment Saule made that statement.

Saule deliberately chose a secluded path to avoid detection. However, the darkness of the pathmade it difficult to discern who was ahead. Saule heard footsteps approaching but dismissed themas those of a passing servant.

But when she came face to face with the person, she realized he was intoxicated.

"I could smell the wine on his breath," Saule recalled, her voice tinged with unease.

Being naturally cautious around men, Saule tried to pass by discreetly. But the man suddenlygrabbed her wrist.

"Tell me, don't I deserve Beah?" the man slurred, his gaze intense under the moonlight.

Saule recognized him as a Waldorf, someone she had seen in the backyard.

"I don't know. Don't ask me." Saule stepped away, attempting to free herself from his grasp.

Unfortunately, her efforts exposed her under the moonlight, making her clearly visible to the man.

"Beah, it's you. Beah..." The man gazed down at Saule with intense longing.

"I'm not Beah. You've mistaken me for her." For reasons she couldn't explain, his presence filled herwith unease.

"No, you're Beah. I've told you before, I love you more than anyone. Don't marry my brother. Marryme, okay?"

Suddenly, he hugged her tightly, the overpowering scent of wine swirling around her, making herhead spin.

"Stop. I'm not Beah." Saule sensed the looming threat and attempted to push him away, but herefforts were in vain.novelbin

"Beah, as long as I have you, you'll be with me forever, right?" the man slurred.

Once this thought solidified in the man's mind, he clung to it obsessively. His actions escalatedbeyond mere words; he began to tug at her clothes aggressively.

Regret filled Saule as she found herself in this dangerous situation. If only she had chosen adifferent path, she wouldn't have encountered him.

"Beah, remember, I'm the one who loves you the most..."
