100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Chapter 444 The Result Has Come Out!

?

Day Fifty-One…

~~*****~~

Phantomflake knew that Nathan was in the hospital. But she still requested to talk to him. She was willing to confess and reveal who called the hit, putting a price on Monica's head. But she wanted to have a conversation with Nathan personally. She would only confess in front of him.

"Is she courting death? Our Supreme Leader hates her so much. Who knows he might kill her today after using the truth serum…" She paused and embraced her own self as she added, "I don't want to see the evil side of our Leader. He is scary!" Chantha could feel the goosebump just imagining Nathan's angry look.

Axel and Violet nodded their heads as they agreed to Chantha's last remarks. On the other hand, Spider laughed sarcastically.

"Do you want to suffer miserably before dying? It looks like you want our Supreme Leader to torture you by himself. Hmm, just speak now and tell us who ordered you to kill the beloved woman of our Supreme Leader." Spider looked at her meaningfully. 

Even if Phantomflake would reveal the truth and name the mastermind for this assassination, Nathan still ordered them to make her suffer from various torture.

"Perhaps, are you thinking of negotiating with him just to save your ass?" Spider directly said, mocking her. "Are you afraid of dying now, Miss Phantomflake?" Spider kept taunting her.

Jane could only shoot him a cold sharp glare. Spider's tone was very annoying. She wanted to punch the guy in his face. If only her hands were not tied down on the chair, she would have already punched this guy.

"Let's proceed!" Spider stated. His comrade, Joker, switched on the device- picana electrica, setting a certain volt, enough to give her pain but not too much to kill her or lose consciousness.

Spider used the two prods, pressing the tip to Jane's hands. The device sent an electric shock to Jane's body. But Jane clenched her fists and gritted her teeth to stop herself from screaming. She wouldn't give them the satisfaction to hear her whimpers and groans while suffering from electric shocks.

"Speak now! Tell us everything you know!" Spider began pressuring Phantomflake as he raised his voice.

But Jane just remained tight-lipped. She wanted to talk to Nathan. She had some important things to tell him.

Seeing how stubborn she was, Spider motioned for Joker to increase the volt before electrocuting Phantomflake once more. Jane's lips bled from her biting. She tried her best not to scream in pain. But her body was sweating a lot and she could feel that she was getting weaker and weaker by the second.

After five consecutive tortures using the picana electrica, Jane was now breathing heavily and her body was sweating profusely. But she was still awake.

Spider was going to use the highest voltage of the electric current when suddenly the door of the Dark Room was pushed open. Everyone's attention was shifted to the front door. Nathan had arrived. He was still walking on crutches.

As soon as he entered, his eyes met Phantomflake's gaze. He didn't know why but his heart skipped a beat upon seeing the light of hope in her eyes as she looked at him. Nathan was taken aback for a moment.

'Why is she looking at me like that?' Nathan mused to himself. He wasn't used to seeing the gentle look in her eyes. The indifference was gone. Two years ago, Phantomflake stared at him with her cold eyes, devoid of any emotions. But now, it felt different from two years ago.

"Supreme Leader!"

Everyone inside the Dark Room greeted Nathan politely. Spider and Joker stopped torturing Phantomflake as they welcomed their Supreme Leader. 

Nathan ignored others. His eyes were fixed on Phantomflake as he traced his steps toward her. She looked like a mess. Her clothes were soaked with water and sweat. Her white shirt became see-through that could no longer hide the sensitive part of her upper body.

"Leave us!" Nathan ordered, making his men puzzled. They didn't expect him to throw them out in the middle of the torture.

"Eh? Is he going to torture her by himself?" Chantha nudged her sister's shoulder as she asked her in a low voice.

Violet just shrugged her shoulders. "Don't ask. Let's just obey our Leader's command."

"Get that woman out here," Nathan added. He was referring to Madam Lu who was still unconscious in her chair.

"Okay, Boss!"

With Nathan's command, everyone left the Dark Room, transferring Madam Lu to another prison cell. 

Now, Nathan and Jane were left alone inside. He watched her, conflicted. Phantomflake was his enemy but he could still see her as a woman. The reason he ordered others to leave was because part of him didn't want his men to see her exposed body.

"I've been waiting for you…" Jane mumbled in her hoarse and weak voice.

Nathan frowned deeply when he heard that. "Why? Are you going to beg me?" His voice was as cold as the winter snow. "Afraid of dying now?"

Jane's lips curled up into a faint smile, her eyes not leaving his face. The crease on Nathan's forehead deepened further when he saw her smile. 

'Why is she smiling?' 

Jane's strange behavior was giving Nathan one shock from another. She was so different from the way she was acting two years ago.

"I have something to tell you. I'm going to confess now."

Nathan eyed her suspiciously. He didn't know if he could trust this woman's words. What if she would only give him false information? Phantomflake was also known for being cunning and crafty.

"I can't trust you." Nathan only thought of one way— make her confess using the truth serum.

Jane was about to say a word when Axel interrupted them. He looked troubled when he entered the Dark Room. He was holding his phone.

"Why are you here, Axel? I told you to go out!" Nathan was displeased by Axel's sudden intrusion.

"I'm sorry." Axel apologized right away. "Supreme Leader, come with me first! There is something urgent you have to know!" Axel appeared to be worried about something.

"What is it?" Nathan asked him confusedly.

Axel darted his gaze back and forth between Nathan and Phantomflake. "I can't tell you here, Boss. Come with me first."

Both Nathan and Jane were puzzled as to why Axel was looking so worried. 'Did something happen to Abigail?'

The two immediately thought of Abigail. They became worried as well when thinking about Abigail's current condition.

Without wasting any more time, Nathan followed Axel outside. 

"Tell me. What's going on here?" Nathan braced himself. He didn't want to hear a piece of bad news related to Abigail.

"Master, it's a call from our AI team in SYP Twilight Corporation," Axel informed him.

Nathan felt relieved when he heard that. At least, it had nothing to do with Abigail.

"What did they tell you?" Nathan asked him curiously. He wondered how important this information was since Axel even interrupted his confrontation with Phantomflake.

"Master, the team you assigned to generate the young photo of Mr. Hiroshi's missing daughter to a grown version already has the results. And one photo generated by our AI system showed… Phantomflake's face."

There was a moment of complete silence.

"Supreme Leader… There is a possibility that Phantomflake might be the missing daughter of Mr. Hiroshi of Sawada Clan."
