In the Lap of Luxury by Unsweetened Chestnuts Novel novel Chapter 364

"Darien, you better turn yourself in. Confess about your crimes, and let those women and children you kidnapped go home. Otherwise, dying a thousand times wouldn't be enough to repent your sins."

Hearing that, Darien burst into laughter.

"Turn myself in? Ms. Lewis, that's the funniest joke I've heard in my life."

As soon as he said that, his expression changed.

The next moment, he reached out and grabbed Grace's chin.

"Your family has pushed me to a dead end, making it impossible for me to stay in Frenda. They almost took my life. Since you've cut off my path, then let's all die—"

Before he could finish, Xander reached out and forcefully hit Darien's arm.

A tingling sensation spread, and Darien felt immense pain. He suddenly lost the strength in his hand.

He clenched his fist, but the numbness in his hand showed no sign of subsiding. He looked up and stared coldly at Xander. "What did you do?"

Xander's eyes darkened, and a faint smile appeared on his lips. "Nothing much. I just hit your tendon. Don't worry. There won't be any serious harm. Just numbness for a few minutes."

Darien's face turned dark at his words, clearly angry.

Xander had only struck him once, and he hadn't even applied much force, yet it had caused Darien so much pain.

"Who are you?" Darien asked, gritting his teeth. He scanned his memories for information about Xander, but he found nothing.

Xander stared at Darien coldly. He only said, "You don't deserve to know."
