A smile crept up on Donoghue's lips. He had lied to Florian that Yumi was dead not because he was afraid of the man but because he had just become the Emperor and he needed talents at his service. There was no need to end up in a stalemate with Florian.
"My dear!" Florian trembled and wailed; his vision turned black, and he almost fainted.
"Susan, you b*tch!" The next second, Florian suddenly recalled something. He clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and said, "If she killed my wife, then I must kill her. I'll kill her personally."
Florian's eyes were bloodshot when he said that. His whole body was filled with murderous intent.
He had no idea that Donoghue had utterly fooled him. Yumi was not dead; she was locked in a private room in the palace.
Ugh!
Donoghue sighed as he persuaded Florian. "I understand your feelings at this time, but Susan can't die now. I need her to lure Darryl here."
Donoghue's eyes flickered as he continued to say, "Darryl was probably the reason Susan harmed your wife. You and your wife have always stood against him. Susan is Darryl's godmother; it's natural for her to hate both of you. That's why she killed your wife so cruelly. Darryl is the culprit. Don't worry, when we catch Darryl, I will let you kill him and avenge your wife."
Florian gritted his teeth as the anger in him seethed.
'Your Majesty is right. This is all because of Darryl.'
Florian suppressed his anger and said with tears, "Your Majesty is right; I'll obey your arrangements."
Mmm!
Donoghue nodded in satisfaction before he said pretentiously, "Florian, I'm sorry I have not protected your wife well. Don't worry; I will definitely treat you better."
"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty." Florian wiped the tears from his eyes and replied in gratitude.
Donoghue stopped talking. He waved his hand and beckoned Florian to leave.
