Chapter 1071 - 1071: What a Bunch of Suicidal Idiots

There is a tiny needle mark on the pale arm.Aurelia Shaw's eyes narrowed sharply.

They really dare to test her limits!

Aurelia looked up at the iron cage again; as long as there is a mechanism, there is a way to unlock it, just like if there is a lock, there must be a key. It's just that she hasn't found that key yet.

...

It's unclear how much time passed.

Aurelia rested her chin, staring at the top of the iron cage, when a faint, almost undetectable crisp sound was heard.

The door was pushed open.

A figure walked in.

"Hey, are you still alive?"

Huh?

Aurelia was startled, looking in the direction of the voice, and upon seeing the newcomer, she narrowed her eyes.

Robert saw that Aurelia could still move, sighed in relief, and pretended to be relaxed as he said, "Looks like I should have come later; you seem to be quite alive and kicking."

"Why are you here?" Aurelia asked him, ignoring his previous comment.

Robert walked to the mechanism to study how to get Aurelia down, responding to her question as he said, "What do you think? Of course, I came to save you. I thought you were already dead here. That old man is quite the pervert; he wouldn't spare even a young girl like you with such delicate skin. How did you offend him?"

"Oh, by the way, I heard that old man say your fiancé Mason Nightshade happens to be his mortal enemy."

Robert spoke to himself, his tone seemed normal, but his fingers that fiddled with the mechanism were trembling, causing him to fail several times to unlock the combination lock.

"Damn! Why is this thing so hard to manipulate!" Robert muttered softly.

Aurelia glanced at his hands, "Your hands are shaking, are you scared?"

"Hmph! Scared? I never know what fear is!" Robert snorted disdainfully.

Aurelia certainly didn't believe what he said.

Aurelia: "You seem to have a pretty good relationship with that man; perhaps you two joined forces to deal with me?"

"Forget it, don't rescue me, lest I step out and get killed right away."

Saying this, Aurelia sat down.

Robert glared at her, "I'm risking my life here to save you, and you, how can you doubt me!"

Aurelia raised an eyebrow, "Who can prove your goodwill? Compared to someone I've only crossed paths with a few times, offending someone you've feared and known for so many years — if you were me, would you trust me?"

Aurelia's mischievous eyes narrowed, a glint of brilliance mixed with a trace of coldness flowing in their depths.

Robert fell silent, saying nothing.

She's right.

Who would believe that someone with no personal connection would risk their life to save them?

What's more frustrating is that he didn't even know why, on impulse, he took the risk against that old man to rescue this woman!

"Are you leaving or not?" Robert shouted angrily, unclear whether his anger stemmed from being misunderstood or from something else.

Aurelia sat cross-legged, her long curly hair covering half her shoulder. Her slight form was partially hidden by her black hair, her crimson lips curled into a teasing smile, her mischievous eyes undulating with charm and hinting at a spellbinding allure. Even now, she seemed less like she was in danger and more like she was lounging on a sunlit beach, leisurely sunbathing.

Robert muttered another curse under his breath, glancing at his trembling hands again... Damn it! He couldn't even measure up to a woman.

"Let's see you open the door first." Having observed Robert's every move, she had already figured it out.

Robert didn't know the code.
