Chapter 233 Guess What I Want to Do
Paige burst out laughing as soon as she heard it. "Sure, if you wanna die, I've got some pills right here. Pop one, and in less than ten minutes, your wish will come true."
Paige pulled a pill from her bag and tossed it to Lily, who caught it. "In ten minutes, you'll be numb, no pain at all. You'll be free. Once you're gone, your body can leave this place."
Lily held the pill, the choice now hers. Paige watched, curious if Lily had the guts to go through with it. Lily looked like she was about to take the pill, but her hand hesitated.
Paige laughed. "Didn't you want to die? I gave you a choice, and now you're backing out. Don't take me for a fool, Lily."
Lily couldn't do it. She threw the pill away, angered by Paige's taunts. "No one wants to die, not even me. But you all treat me like this, locking me up in the dark, one meal a day, no water to clean up. I'd rather die than suffer like this."
Paige listened. "Fair point. That's why I gave you a painless way out, but you refused. You chose to stay."
Lily stood up suddenly. "What did you say? You're gonna keep me locked up here?"
Paige nodded. "I'm just in a bad mood today, so I came over to vent a little."
Paige's words were infuriating. If Lily weren't so hungry and exhausted, she would've fought back. But she had no strength left.
Paige stopped talking and had someone bring Lily out of the cage. She walked up, took another black pill, grabbed Lily's jaw, and tried to force it into her mouth.
When Lily saw it was the same pill, she panicked and struggled desperately. Paige asked coldly, "Afraid to die?"
Paige's movements slowed, and Lily struggled even harder. "So you dare to covet Raymond, knowing he's my husband? Think you can take what's mine? Did you consider the consequences of falling into my hands?"
With that, Paige pried open Lily's mouth, shoved the pill in, and made her swallow it. Paige let go, and Lily immediately started coughing, trying to vomit the pill, kneeling on the ground.
Paige watched the disheveled Lily, grabbed her by the back of the neck, and lifted her up. Lily couldn't believe how strong Paige was, especially given her own weakened state.
Lily thought, 'If it weren't for Raymond locking me up here with barely any food, I might've had the strength to fight back.' But before she could dwell on it, Paige punched her hard in the stomach.
Lily crumpled to the ground, her stomach in agony, but she managed to vomit. In the light, she saw the black pill Paige had forced her to swallow in the vomit. She breathed a sigh of relief, though she was still coughing.
Paige stood by, looking at her hand with disdain. Raymond, who had been silent, noticed immediately. He reached out, and Charles handed him a sanitized towel. Raymond took it and carefully wiped Paige's hands.
Lily turned her head and saw this. She couldn't understand. Paige was just pretty, but she wasn't bad either, and she was even younger than Paige. She wondered why Raymond wasn't interested in her.
Paige met Lily's gaze and said coldly, "Wondering why Raymond isn't into you?"
Lily replied, "What do you want? Is it fun to humiliate and torture me like this?"
Paige nodded affirmatively. "Of course it's fun! Want to know what I want? Tell me, who sent you two? Who is the mastermind behind this?"
Paige didn't beat around the bush. Lily laughed. "Why does there have to be someone behind it? Can't it just be us? Mr. Carnegie is so handsome and charming, and he's from the Carnegie family. Who wouldn't want to marry him?"
Paige said, "So you're here for love?" After asking this, Paige got really angry. Insulting love was unacceptable.
Lily said, "Of course, I love Mr. Carnegie." Raymond's face immediately changed. If Paige weren't there, he might have taken action himself.
Although Raymond didn't move, Paige couldn't control herself. The knife Paige always carried finally had a use. She drew it and walked towards the cage.
Inside the cage was Oliver. His body was tied up, and his mouth was taped shut, making it impossible for him to make any sound. The whole scene was eerily quiet.
Paige, holding the knife, walked straight towards him. Seeing this, Lily couldn't help but ask, "What do you want to do?"
Paige looked back at Lily, a mocking smile on her lips, and said, "What do you think I want to do?"
