Chapter 212: Poor Ling Xue? (2)

Chloe asked in her cute tone; however, this time, her tone was a little softer than before as she was feeling a little guilty about making this poor condition of her previous proud leader.

She had never seen her break down like this and cry; however, wasn't she going to apologize to her?

The answer was, of course, not.

'Hmph! Why should I apologize to her when it is all that scum Mark's fault for making things like this?'

While she knew it was her own mistake to let her emotions slip away and cause her to leak her bloodlust, she was not going to apologize and explain how it happened, as it would complicate things even more.

'Hmph! I would call things even after this.'

She was angry. She would have taken some treasure as punishment for fooling her, which she would have obtained to get things even with her, even when those treasures wouldn't suit her. However, in the end, she would have likely sold them to her at a high price, and she knew Ling Xue would buy them. It would have been her perfect revenge after taking these extra cores today. However, seeing her cry had caused such a great loss.

She even doubted if she was being tricked or not. However, only after a few seconds, remembering the look of despair and the tear-covered face of her, Chloe knew Ling Xue was actually crying earlier. And after a few thoughts, she was even more sure that she was not acting.

After all the time spent together with her in her previous life, Chloe knew that even before her greed for power and above all else, Ling Xue liked to be free, which was why she went against and created her own organization to survive and not surrender.

Even when times were tough for them, mostly due to the government trying to locate them, pestering them, and even attacking them after getting rejected many times, even when they were many times weaker than them, Ling Xue still didn't give up and fought them while changing their bases from time to time.

She didn't know what happened after she had left the organization. However, whenever she heard her name and saw her wanted poster, she knew her friend was alive and well, which made her a little prideful. However, remembering what she had done to her, she would only "Hmph!" in response while seeing the poster with a small smile on her face.

'Hmph! What a crybaby, I have to take care of everyone.'

Ling Xue heard the soft and cute voice of the little pink-haired girl who had caught her before kneeling. She didn't know why the little devil had done that; however, now she had even tried to stop reading her mind and guessing her intentions, realizing how futile her attempts were.

Now she felt the wetness on her cheeks, which made her realize how she had been crying. But instead of stopping and trying to wipe her tears to hide them from everyone else, she let them see.

The realization that her freedom was not in her hands made her start sobbing silently without making a sound, yet still, the weak sobs escaped with new, restarted trembles in her body.

Sob Sob Sob

'I am trapped.'

The words that sounded to her like a sweet whisper of the devil had caused her to stand straight without her support, however, not without tears sliding down her blue eyes and weak trembles in her body, clenching her fists.

She didn't care about her image now after realizing that her life was not even in her own hands, feeling like being in her greatest nightmares, and now she only hoped not to upset Chloe and prayed to survive, as she didn't want to die.

'Sob, I have so many things I wanted to do.'

Sob Sob Sob

Against the absolute terror she had witnessed earlier, she realized how much of a monster the cute pink-haired girl standing in front of her was.

She regretted how she had tried to trick her with all her heart.

Sob Sob Sob

'What have I done?'

She only hoped to get one more chance, as after what she had felt earlier—the horror, the feeling of death that had drowned her, the terror of the cute pink-haired girl who was standing there doing nothing but making her feel her intent to take life at all costs—

She was sure her end was near.

'I shouldn't have tried to trick such a cute girl.'

But even now, her will to live was still there. She would do anything Miss Chloe asked of her and even beg her, with only the wish that she would forgive her and not kill her.

But for now, she was only standing in her place while silently sobbing, something she couldn't stop even if she tried, after realizing how her freedom—the thing she wanted most in her life—was gone just like that, over a small mistake of hers.

Devastation and regret would only be an understatement of what she was feeling right now; however, she was not delusional and wasn't going to reject her reality, as her only goal was to survive.

'Damn it!! Stop crying.'

Sob, sob, sob.

Tears were glistening down her beautiful face, and even her eyes were red now. She had tried her best to stop crying.

But she was failing to stop her tears from leaking. She knew if she acted like this, it could upset Miss Chloe even more, which was why she tried to wipe the tears from her face again and again.

Yet, only after a second of wiping her tears did it start to flow again. Her realization of losing her freedom didn't let her stop from crying.

Chloe was looking at Ling Xue, and now, even if she tried to be cool earlier and denied the thought of saying sorry because she would feel embarrassed while doing so.

'Poor thing.'

However, no—after seeing the state of Ling Xue, she couldn't stop herself from walking forward with the intention of consoling her.

'Hmph! I would be an adult and apologize to her.'
