Chapitre 308: End (II)

Since her hands were bound behind her back, she used that to her advantage and adjusted her hands to read her pulse and find out exactly what kind of drug the man had fed her.

It wasn't easy for her to concentrate on her pulse as the man was still observing her closely. So, in order to keep him distracted from realizing what she was doing, she decided to continue speaking. "Are you planning to kill me?" she asked, her voice trembling from the nerves.
