C1 'i will Give You Five Days to Break the Engagement!'

The hot summer air was filled with the heat of the day.

The young girl was lying on the leather sofa in the living room with her head lowered. Her wrist was tightly tied up by a man's tie. Her clean and fair face was filled with pain.

The walking clock on the white wall made a rustling sound, breaking the silence in the room.

Pain, my hand hurts.

She frowned and woke up in a daze. She looked around and saw a strange space.

"Ugh…"

She tilted her body and looked around the room. Every single item in the simple but not simple aristocratic residence was exuding a sense of value.

"I'm awake!"

A cold and dangerous male voice sounded behind Patricia.

"Who is it?"

She was startled. She turned her head to see the man clearly, but her head could not move. She had been maintaining the same position for a long time, causing her neck to fall slightly.

"Who are you!" Patricia was terrified. Her wrist was tightly bound by her tie. Who was the one who caught her?

"Patron, I will give you five days to break off the engagement. What have you done?"

The man stood behind her. His voice was sharp, but his tone was indifferent.

She was stunned. Her thoughts returned to five days ago when she was on the bus back home. She was about to fall asleep when she received a text from an unknown number on her phone.

"Miss Gonzales, please dissolve the engagement with me within five days. Otherwise, you will have to bear the consequences."

The short sentence made Patricia confused. When had she ever engaged in an engagement with anyone? After that, she ignored the message as if it was a mistake.

"You... You are the one who sent the message." Patricia came back to her senses and panicked.

"Are you scared?" The man heard the panic in Patricia's voice and scoffed, "Since you know you're scared, why don't you listen to me?"

"You're ridiculous!" Patricia said angrily. "I don't even know who you are. How can you break the engagement? Furthermore, you're threatening me! That's illegal!"

"Illegal?" The man sneered in disdain, "This is a new word."

The man's arrogant voice angered Patricia. She stood up and looked at the man behind her with a startled expression.

The man stood in front of the French window. He was tall and straight. His facial features were perfect. His thin lips were slightly pursed and his ink-black eyes were half-closed. There was a cold glint in his eyes. Invisibly, Patricia felt a pressure that could almost kill her.

"I'll dig out your eyes if you keep looking!" The man's eyes were unhappy. His voice was sharp and his tone was murderous.

After a long time, she finally calmed down and mustered up her courage to ask, “In a society ruled by law, who do you think you can arrest? Who do you think you can dig out your eyes?”

"Right!" The man said coldly.

The man's decisiveness made Patricia nervous again. She swallowed her saliva and forced herself to speak, "Do you know who I am? Let me go if you can untie the rope and let me go! Otherwise, you..."

"What?" The man walked forward with wide strides when he heard her. "Are you the daughter of the mayor or the daughter of the president?"

"I..." Patricia felt guilty. She was just an intern who made pastries and desserts.

"You can't speak?" The man had already walked over to her. Suddenly, his aggressive aura rushed towards Patricia.

"Don't you know who I am?"

Who was this man? He seemed to know everything about her.

The man looked down at her and said, "Miss Gonzales, I don't want to waste my breath on you. Tomorrow, I want to see the news of you and me breaking off the engagement. Otherwise, the consequences will be worse than this!"

With that, the man threw a fruit knife at her!
