Chapter 685: Chapter 685: Still Defiant in the Face of Death
Nanny Chen, after being locked inside a dark room by two bodyguards, began banging on the door and yelling in desperation, “Let me out, you’ve got some nerve! Once the Old Madam wakes up, she will definitely release me. Then, I won’t let you off, daring to imprison me like this. If you’re smart, you’ll let me out now!”
Her voice was clearly audible within dozens of meters.
Just when she thought her throat would go hoarse without anyone paying attention, the door suddenly opened!
Nanny Chen, thinking it was the bodyguards, took a few steps back in fear. But when she realized it was Bai Yueru, she rushed forward, attempting to grab Bai Yueru’s hand.
However, she heard a ‘clang’ beneath her feet; a heavy iron chain cruelly restricted her freedom.
“Bai Yueru, it’s the Old Madam who sent you, isn’t it? Hurry, get someone to unlock this chain from my feet. They’re utterly insane to have locked me up like this!” Nanny Chen kept shouting.
Nevertheless, Bai Yueru didn’t move an inch, and just stared at Nanny Chen as if she was watching a monkey, “Old Chen, if I were you, I’d tell the whole truth about what Dr. Eligen did to my son. Maybe then, your fate might be slightly better.”
“What are you saying? Have you lost your mind, Bai Yueru? How dare you talk to me like this? Do you realize how disrespectful you are being towards the Old Madam?” Nanny Chen pointed her finger at Bai Yueru, yelling furiously.
“Slap!” Bai Yueru stepped forward and slapped Nanny Chen across the face, “I dare not only talk to you like that, I also dare to hit you like this!”
“Bai Yueru, what do you mean?” Nanny Chen seemed to detect a whiff of despair, “You, you all have some nerve. Have you done something to the Old Madam?”
“Old Chen, for a mere servant like you, why bother with so many questions? You just need to understand that from today on, I call the shots here, that’s all.” After speaking, Bai Yueru suddenly glared coldly at Nanny Chen, “All these years, how many bad ideas have you given in front of the Old Lady, causing me so much suffering. Do you still remember? Don’t worry, Old Chen, I will return each misdeed to you, one by one.”
Nanny Chen’s face turned ashen, and she fell to her knees with a ‘thump,’ “Bai Yueru, no, Mrs. Bai, I was also forced to do those things in the past. Many were deliberately instructed by the Old Madam herself. All the pressure put on you, it was all the Old Madam’s own idea. I was merely echoing it for emphasis, Mrs. Bai, please spare me, Mrs. Bai!”
“Spare you? Sure!” Bai Yueru handed her a small device and said, “Old Chen, this is a recording pen. Take it and tell, in full detail, how many things you’ve hidden from me over the years along with the Old Lady. Perhaps, then I’ll consider sparing you.”
“Get lost!” Nanny Chen suddenly slapped the recording pen out of Bai Yueru’s hand, “Trying to trick me into confessing? How naive of you to think that. Don’t assume I’m unaware that you’re only using the Old Madam’s coma to play these frightening tricks, trying to interrogate me. Hmph, you think I’d fall for that? Bai Yueru, I really underestimated you, daring to act the master while the Old Madam is unconscious? I spit on that idea. Once the Old Madam wakes up, you’ll be in for it; I’ll make sure to speak ‘kindly’ of you in front of her!”
