The women fell silent at once.
They didn't want Catherine to die, but neither were they willing to jeopardize their own well-being for her.
Let alone being sent to the 18th basement.
And so, Catherine headed downstairs on her own.
White bandages, in many places, were soaked with bright red blood.
She was already injured, and when whipped by the lord, the wounds split open again.
But it was as if she couldn't feel the pain.
Perhaps the pain in her heart was far greater than any physical pain at this moment.
The most important person to her actually wished her dead.
"Wait!"
Just as Catherine reached the first floor, a voice called out to her from behind.
Without even turning her head, Catherine knew who it was.
Because there were only two men in this manor villa.
One was the lord, and the other was...
Her somewhat faltering body suddenly trembled slightly.
Yes, the person who called out to Catherine was Su Chen.
