Chapter 233: So Painful

“I think that scene would be extremely exciting! Hahaha…” Alan said, playing the recording for Claire. Claire stared at the phone without reaction. She was still inexperienced, even after serving four years in prison. After all, she had been protected too well by the Prescott family since she was young. Naturally, she couldn’t compete with terrorists.

“I’m really satisfied with your reaction. I’ve decided to agree to cooperate with you.”

Claire didn’t expect Alan to agree under such circumstances. She took a few deep breaths and finally let out a sigh of relief.

“I can agree to your terms, but are you sure you can really do everything I say?”

Alan stopped playing and put the phone back in his pocket, looking at Claire thoughtfully.

“Of course,” Claire nodded.

Alan sneered and walked over, lifting Claire’s chin. “Really? What if I want you to sleep with me in front of Frederick?”

Alan wanted her to sleep with him in front of Frederick. Claire felt thunderstruck. For a moment, the image of Frederick watching a man and a woman being intimate appeared in Claire’s mind. She never thought Alan would make such a request.

“What’s wrong? You just said you would follow all my orders. I’ve only made one request, and you’re hesitating. Is this your idea of cooperation?” Alan seemed to have anticipated Claire’s reaction.

“I don’t think any woman could do that in front of the man she’s loved for years.” Claire felt her mind buzzing. At this moment, this was the only reason she could think of. She didn’t know how Alan would react or what he would do to her. Claire clenched her hands, her nails digging into her palms.

“Hahaha…” In the end, Alan said nothing and just left laughing. She watched Alan’s retreating figure, her heart still uneasy.

Claire thought, “What does Alan’s laughter mean? The thing he just said about me sleeping with him in front of Frederick…” Claire stood there anxiously for a long time. Alan left the room and went straight to see Frederick. Frederick was brought in and kept in a separate room. Along the way, he was blindfolded and tied up.

For someone like him, who had been through many battles, it was natural to be blindfolded. Otherwise, he could easily remember the terrain or leave marks for his people to find him. Alan walked to the door and looked at Frederick inside, who was blindfolded and tied up, and suddenly stopped.

“The pain of losing my brother, my only family in the world, was so painful. I have to give him a big gift when I meet him for the first time.” Alan clenched his fist and then relaxed, whispering to his henchman, “You go…”

“Yes, Mr. Gonzales. I’ll go right away.” The henchman immediately looked excited and ran to do it.

An hour later, Alan came to Frederick with a USB drive. “Sorry to have kept you waiting, General Hawthorne.” He walked over and pulled off the black cloth covering Frederick’s eyes.

“Making people wait, to consume some of their patience first. This is a common method we use on spies. I didn’t expect that today I would be subjected to such a method by a terrorist.” The sudden light made Frederick a bit uncomfortable. He looked at the person in front of him, who looked indeed a bit like Mark from that year. He thought that by killing Mark, he had almost eliminated four-fifths of the terrorists, which should be enough to destroy that terrorist organization. As for the remaining minions, they were not a concern. He didn’t expect that Mark actually had a brother, and he had organized all the remaining people. He had survived the bloody scenes on the battlefield back then. These things now were nothing to him.

“General Hawthorne, you’re worthy of your reputation. You have fallen into the hands of me, a terrorist leader, and you’re still so calm. I don’t know if you will be so calm after watching this video.”

Alan laughed, stroking his lips, seemingly savoring something. He handed the USB drive to his henchman. Soon, a scene of a man and a woman being intimate appeared in Frederick’s eyes. The people in the video were Claire and Alan. In an instant, Frederick’s mind went blank, leaving only Claire’s face on the big screen. Anger surged from the bottom of his heart.

“Ugh… Help me. I feel so uncomfortable!” It was obvious that Claire was drugged in the video, but she was indeed intimate with Alan.
