Qin Yuanfeng continued. "This man is meeting a Japanese… Or someone from the East."

Almost immediately Lily thought about what Claude said about some Japanese in a news article. At this point, Lily had been through a lot to know that everything is connected. There is no such thing as coincidences.

If that man is indeed a member of the organization, then does that mean Claude was lying about his earlier claims that he met with Mr. Neeson?

Another knock interrupted the silence inside the room. This time it was Secretary Go. He went inside to give them the food that Zhou Jingren ordered. Not long after, the four of them had brunch before Lily told Zhou Jingren and Qin Yuanfeng to sleep while she goes and visits Claude.

"Did you find her?" Claude immediately said when he saw Lily walk inside the room.

"Did you sleep well?" Lily ignored the latter's question as he eyed the sleeping bag on the floor. "We apologize for not giving you something more comfortable. It's just that. This is the safest place in the palace. And we couldn't risk putting you in an unsafe place." Lily lied without batting an eyelid.

"My grandmother."

"Yes… we just found her." Lily didn't miss the surprise in the younger man's eyes. She walked towards the table with Secretary Go following her around.

"Then let me see her! I need to talk to her. I need to— "

"She is alive." Lily interrupted him. "You seemed too worried that we found her? I was expecting to see you happy."

"Of course I am worried! You already said that you are here to kill her!"

"I will decide on that after… I talk to her."

Lily immediately saw the changes in Claude's eyes. He eyed Secretary Go who stood behind Lily before shifting his gaze back to her.

"You seemed… angry?" Lily raised an eyebrow. "Are you afraid that we will find out something?"

Surprisingly, the younger man's face didn't change this time. He stared at her for a few seconds. "You do not have the right to kill her."

"Killing… Does not involve rights." Lily said. "I followed the orders of the people who wanted her dead."

"Aren't you curious why they wanted her to die?"

Lily shrugged in response. She waited for him to speak. But seeing Claude just stared at her, Lily added. "I was planning to ask her about my grandmother. When… That's when I realized that the organization wanted to silence her for something else." Slowly, a smile bloomed on Lily's face. "Now… that makes me so curious."

"You— You don't know what you were talking about."

"That is true." Lily shrugged again. "But I know that some people have a small level of pain tolerance. Some of them would confess if… you put a needle in their toenails. Some would confess after losing a limb. While some… would confess after their faces were destroyed." She beamed when she saw Claude's pale face. "How much pain do you think your grandmother can take?"

"You— You devil!"

"I want to know what you know." Lily calmly said. "It's either… I torture you or your grandmother. You choose." Lily was hoping that this man truly loved his grandmother. Or else… she won't be able to use her to make him talk.

"You— You would really hurt my grandmother?"

"Your grandmother… went out last night to see me," Lily said. "But… we never met as some people took her on her way to see me." Lily turned on the monitor that showed her arrival in the house near the marketplace followed by his grandmother leaving their house. All with time stamps.

"But… she is refusing to tell me the truth." She added and observed the man's face. "So… I am hoping that you could save her."

"Are you still planning to kill her?"

"She won't survive for long once she is out there. If I let her live, other people won't. So now… it all comes down to how much are you willing to do for her not to experience extreme pain before passing." She continued smiling. "I mean… an older woman like that… I don't think she can take two needles in her nails, no? But what if…"

"Stop." Claude interrupted her. "Just stop it." He lowered his gaze before looking at Lily. "You are too cruel."

"I am. I am more than cruel."

He gritted his teeth as he glared at her. "Don't you dare hurt my grandmother."

"Or what?"

"I will kill you!" he hissed.

"Assuming you can leave this place alive… " Lily said. "But that is near impossible. You could assault me now. But… this man here is bigger and more experienced than you. A black belt in Karate is not enough to take an experienced man like him down. You would probably die before you even touch a strand of my hair. And once you die… I will still torture the older woman until she says something." Lily leaned towards him. "You know what? We will not kill you. I will ask my men to cut off your limbs one by one and show it to the older woman. Say, how much do you think she can take?"

Slowly, Claude's eyes burned with rage. His hands balled into tight fists as he listened to Lily's sharp words. As irritating as it may seem, everything that she is saying is true. He might know martial arts and how to shoot a gun, but he lacks experience.

In front of a veteran. He was nothing.

"Do you think she will cry if we start cutting off a finger?" Lily gave a sinister smile. Lily was not proud of this method. However, this was the only way that she could think off to break a man like Claude.

"I will talk!" Claude said. The thought of his grandmother crying as she watched him getting cut off is already hurting his chest. He could never imagine seeing her being mentally tortured by this despicable woman. "I am Claude and I am Madam Luo's grandson. I a few months ago… before my graduation. A man approached me and offered me a deal."
