Chapter 343: You Are Becoming More and More Unruly!
"Jose Floyd," Nicole finally couldn’t help but break the silence, "do whatever you want, just make it quick.""Make it quick?" A trace of icy coldness appeared on Jose Floyd’s lips, "I’ll take my time settling this score with you! If it’s not clear, the Seys Family will pay for it!"
Devil, King Yama! Nicole looked at the ruthless Jose Floyd, her lips trembling, "Don’t hurt them! They have nothing to do with this! I’m the one who hurt you, come at me if you have grievances, leave the Seys Family out of it!"
"Come at you?" Jose Floyd’s gaze shifted to her, carrying a chilling coldness, his words even more bone-chilling, "Nicole, since you so want to bear the punishment, how can I not oblige?"
Nicole looked at Jose Floyd and coldly corrected him, "My surname is Seys, I’m Nicole Seys, not that Nicole anymore. Jose Floyd, I hope you understand, I don’t want any further entanglements between us."
If meeting again would inevitably lead to confrontation, then it’s better not to meet.
"Don’t want any entanglements with me?" Jose Floyd sneered, "It’s been so long since we last met, Nicole, you’re speaking more and more out of line."
Nicole looked at him, her eyes cold and indifferent, biting her lip in silence.
"Go to the fridge and bring a bottle of red wine over." Jose Floyd commanded coldly, his voice carrying the usual imperious authority that brooked no argument.
Nicole pressed her lips together, walked to the fridge, opened it, and took out a bottle of red wine to hand to Jose Floyd.
"Open it."
Nicole opened the bottle of red wine and handed it back to Jose Floyd, her voice calm, "As long as you don’t hurt the Seys Family, I can do anything. I hope our grievances don’t drag anyone else in."
"Is that so?" A devilish arrogance emanated from Jose Floyd’s face, his cold gaze turning to Nicole, then coldly commanded, "Drink it!"
Nicole’s fingers stiffened for a moment, her gaze deepening as she took the bottle and brought it to her mouth.
Without using a glass, she drank directly from the bottle, pouring the wine into her mouth.
"Cough cough----" Nicole started coughing violently.
Sitting there, Jose Floyd’s gaze remained cold, unmoved, "Keep drinking."
Nicole could only grit her teeth and continue forcing the wine down her throat.
In the end, when there was about a half bottle left, Nicole couldn’t swallow anymore. Holding the wine, she looked at Jose Floyd, "I can’t drink it all, Jose Floyd. Just stab me, it would hurt less and be better."
"Can’t drink anymore?" Jose Floyd looked at her and softly sneered, "Then---- I’ll help you drink!"
A flicker of surprise flashed in Nicole’s eyes as she looked at Jose Floyd.
He’ll help her drink? Has King Yama’s nature changed? Nicole couldn’t believe it! A cold, cruel person like Jose Floyd wouldn’t really intervene just because he saw she couldn’t drink anymore?!
Seeing her stay still, Jose Floyd’s voice sounded again, "Am I drinking or are you? Nicole, is this question so hard for you to decide? You’re so indecisive, unlike the Nicole I knew, the one who could wield a knife without hesitation and stab me without blinking!"
His words were cold, filled with absolute sarcasm.
Nicole’s lips tightened as she picked up the red wine and walked toward Jose Floyd.
When she handed the red wine to Jose Floyd, he glanced at her sideways, "Nicole, you’re becoming more and more unruly."
Only then did Nicole realize that someone as noble and proud as an emperor dislikes looking up to others the most, so those under his command are always especially respectful when speaking to him.
Now standing while he sat, her position’s height was a grave offense.
Nicole lowered her eyes, squatted down, and handed the red wine to Jose Floyd once more.
