Sweet Subterfuge

Chapter 862
Edmund seemed to be convinced by Larissa. His stunned expression turned dark pretty quickly. The sound of knocking sounded
at this time. The man in the black suit entered the room
He was still stone–laced. He did not look at Larissa at all for fear that Edmund might notice something. “Mr. Rogers, it’s time. We
have to go,” he said in a low voice to Edmund.
Edmund nodded. “Okay.” He pulled Larissa up from the bed.
Because her ankles were tied by the ropes, Larissa nearly slammed against the wall when her feet touched the floor. Edmund
helped steady her and frowned at the ropes on her ankles.
Previously, he only wanted to stop Larissa from escaping, so he got the guys to lie layers of ropes around her legs. He did not
think it would cause trouble now for him. After some hesitation, he called the man in a black suit to come over. “Free her legs.”
Then, he warned Larissa. “If you dare to try something, Wendy-”
“Chill. I won’t escape.” Larissa mocked him. Tm more trustworthy compared to you.”
Edmund snorted coldly. “You’d better hope so.”
The man asked Edmund, “Mr. Rogers, should we free her hands too? Because what if people see and call the police
Edmund was silent for a bit then he said, “Go ahead. She can’t run anyway.”
The men in black suits had tied deadened knots when they’d tied Larissa up. So, only a knife could help cut Larissa free.
Larissa glanced at the pocket knife the man was using, and an idea struck her. She secretly gave the man a look, and the man
understood what she wanted. After cutting Larissa free, he secretly slipped the pocket knife into Larissa’s down jacket pocket
while Edmund was not
looking.
“Done.” the man in the black suit reported emotionlessly to Edmund, who wrapped an arm around Larissa.
Edmund pretended to be very affectionate with Larissa. “Do not scream or shout for help after going out. Otherwise-”

“Otherwise you’ll kill Wendy and her unborn child that she had with you.” Larissa coldly finished his sentence. “That’s enough,
stop talking. Every time you say it, it just tells everyone what a fucking monster you are.”
Edmund’s expression frame for a moment before he snarled threateningly at her, “Shut up, bitch!”
The motel did not have soundproofing, When walking in the corridor, one could clearly hear the heavy metal music coming from
a nearby
door as well as moaning.
To prevent people from paying attention to them, Edmund and Larissa left first and the black–sulted men followed after.
Some sloppy thugs passed by and whistled at Larissa openly, making all kinds of disgusting gestures. They even asked
Edmund, “Can we
do a threesome?”
Edmund’s face was dark. He pressed his lips together and ignored these people.
His attitude was treated as a provocation by the thugs. They sumounded Edmund and Larissa, and one of them purposely
knocked into
Edmund.
Edmund was knocked back hard, and he let go of Larissa as a result.
“Who do you think you are, motherfucker? The thugs trapped Edmund in a comer. “Do you know whose land you’re on? Can’t be
fucked with us? Who gave you the guts to be a dick?”
Edmund was not a tall person, and so he looked even shorter and smaller when stuck with these tall Aldovians. He did not dare
to start things with the thugs as he kept glancing back to see if the black–sulled men had followed.
He smiled at the same time as he begged for mercy. “Sorry, sorry. I didn’t mean to,”
Larissa watched coldly. She was somewhat amused by Edmund’s dumb cowardice. What a typical poser he was, and useless
too. It were not for the fact that Wendy was in Edmund’s hands, she would not even need to bribe the black–suited people. All
she needed to do was let these thugs take care of Edmund
