"Let me in, please, " Carla begged as she sobbed. "There's a wolf out here about to eat me."
"Uh-huh, " came Zayn's unconcerned reply. He then stood up and slowly walked away.
"Hey!" Carla was on the verge of breaking down. She slammed her fists on the steel gates and screamed, "You won't just stand there and watch me die, will you? If you don't let me in, I'll die!"
Zayn ignored her as he continued walking into the villa.
"Zayn Giblo, " Carla bellowed. "You heartless animal. Karma will get you soon!"Zayn stopped to turn and look at her. "You're still cursing at me at a time like this?"
"D-Don't assume I have to beg you, " Carla ground out. "If I die here, you'd have to bear the responsibility. If the cops come, you'll be the primary suspect."
"I see…" Zayn nodded solemnly. He then pointed at the surveillance camera by the gate. "See that? It will film the process of the wolf eating you. You do realize that a wolf is wild, right? I'm not the one who raised it and there is no law stating that I have to save you."
"You-" Carla could not formulate a response to refute him.
"Let me teach you something, " Zayn said with a smile. "When the wolf bites you, just scream and shout like you did just now. It'll think that you're annoying, and it'll snap its jaw on your throat. Blood will spurt out of you like a water fountain, and death will be instant. This way, it won't hurt."
Carla's face turned colorless as her entire being trembled. All words died in her throat.
"I wish you a merry death. Goodbye!"
Zayn waved and turned to leave.
"Zayn Giblo!" Carla roared as she slammed the steel gate. "You heartless b_stard! You'll die a horrible death!"
Awoo!
Once again, howls of wolves sounded behind her.
Carla immediately lost all her courage as she fell onto her knees with a thud. She wailed and pleaded, "Please save me! I don't want to die!"
Zayn, who had his back to her, finally grinned in delight and glee.
He was even more exhilarated now than when he got a business deal worth tens of billions.
However, he was not in a rush to turn around. Instead, he took a slow step forward.
"Zayn, as long as you save me, I'll do anything." Carla cared for nothing now; staying alive was the only thought in her mind. "Give me the contract. I'll sign it. As long as you save me, I'll sign it."
"Are you sure?" Zayn finally turned around. With an innocent expression on his face, he asked, "Are you going to claim that I'm forcing you again?"
"No, I won't. I'm doing this willingly, " Carla guaranteed. "Let me in first. Let me in quickly. The wolf is here. It really is."
"All right. But remember, you're the one begging me."
Zayn slowly raised his arm and made a gesture.
It was then the bodyguard stepped forward and opened the steel gates.
The gates had only opened a fraction before Carla rushed in. As her legs were still weak, she fell to the ground.
Lifting her head, she could see numerous pairs of green eyes watching her covetously from the nearby woods.
Widening her eyes in fear, a shudder wracked through her body before she fainted.
Zayn clicked his tongue and sighed before shaking his head. "How fragile is she to pass out just like this?"
He then walked over to lift her up into his arms before instructing the guards. "You may leave now."
"Yes, Mr. Giblo."
One of the bodyguards pressed a button, and the green eyes immediately disappeared.
Zayn carried Carla into the villa and placed her on the bed.
Just then, Naya came in with a new copy of the contract.
Holding Carla's hand, Zayn bit on her thumb, and blood immediately seeped out.
He then pressed her thumb at the signature section of the contract before a satisfied smile grew on his face.
"I told you. You won't be able to escape from me."
