Chapter 156: CH 36: The Tool

Laila's shocked face gave Dylan the answer that he wanted to have. She didn't expect that he will figure it out this fast. She looked away to hide her surprise:

- No one has the right to judge me. I don't intend to hurt anyone.

- But you will hurt yourself instead.

Those words pierced her heart:

- I know, but I can't stop. I must do it, no matter what. Don't try to convince me otherwise.

- I'm pretty sure that nothing will change your mind. You already took your decision, and you made it clear that we don't mean anything to you but a tool to get that treasure. Well, you will be also our tool to save Tarou.

Laila smiled at him to hide her pain:

- Right, consider me as a tool. I have been always treated like that. It won't be something new.

Dylan felt so angry, he wanted so badly to yell at her to put some sense in her mind, but he held himself back:

- You made yourself a tool, it is up to you to change that. I can't help you if you keep pushing me away.
