After breakfast, Rex and Lily drive to the spa. As soon as they enter the room, they smell incense
prone to calm people down. Lily has booked a package service in advance. The technician leads them
into the room. After getting changed, Lily and Rex enter the spa. Lily's delicate and satiny skin is
charming. If it weren't for the wrong time, Rex would have sex with her now.
As Lily is paddling, Rex clears his throat a few times, and then forces himself to look away.
The technician has been massaging at the side. The gentle water refreshes Lily. She feels so
comfortable that she almost falls asleep.
"Miss Lily, you also chose a cold bath, it needs to be done in another room." The technician reminds
Lily softly.
Lily nods lazily. "I almost forget. I'll go over right now."
As she is ready to get up, but Rex grabs her. "You may catch a cold. Don't go."
She smiles and waves her hand. "It doesn't matter. I asked just now. There are Chinese medicines in
the water. It's good for my health."
"Then I'll come with you."
"No need. You had a headache yesterday. You can't soak in cold water." Lily holds his hand, feeling
that he is weird today. "Twenty minutes is enough. There is no need to worry."
Considering yesterday's incident, he is quite uneasy.
Rex wishes he could tie her to him so that she won't go anywhere, but she insists. For fear that she will
notice something, he lets her go.
Just as Lily leaves, Rex walks to the door and winks at two policemen in plain clothes guarding the
entrance. Rex feels relieved when he sees the police following Lily.
The room where Lily will take a cold bath is at the end of the corridor. Lily follows the technician's
instructions and pushes the door open. "Miss Lily, wait a moment. I'll go fetch the massage tools."
As the technician leaves, Lily walks to the small bathtub alone. She is wrapped in a large white towel,
and most of her body is covered. Lily cannot wait to go in, so she takes off her bathrobe. In an instant,
only a towel that looks like a tube dress remains on her body.
The white towel is only long enough to cover the thigh. After carefully stepping into the bathtub, Lily lets
out a cry, for her slender legs feel so cold.
In the room, it can be heard that Lily is sloshing the water. She doesn't completely submerge herself
into the water until she tries several times. Being stimulated by the cold water, her skin suddenly
tightens. Just as she is about to adapt to this temperature, she feels a warm touch coming from her
back. She senses clearly that someone is behind her.
How can anyone sneak in such a private place?
Lily is shocked. Without looking back, she directly rushes out of the bathtub. Unfortunately, the man
behind her notices her movements. He immediately takes out a towel and covers her mouth, pulling her
back.
Lily is tightly gagged. She cannot see the person's appearance with her back left to the man, so she
struggles desperately and causes a large number of splashes.
The door to the room has been closed, and the technician who said he was going to get the massage
tools doesn't return.
Lily's heart is beating fast. Only then does she understand that she and Rex have been watched since
the moment they come in here!
Suddenly, an ice-cold sharp knife is gently pressed against her neck. The blade has already been
sharpened, emitting a frightening light. If she is not careful, it will cut open her skin and flesh.
Lily stops resisting, and she flushes from lack of oxygen.
"I know there are people guarding outside. If you don't want to die, be quiet." Behind her comes the
man's sinister voice.
Lily feels that she has once heard this voice, which sounds familiar. In a trance, she suddenly
remembers the foreign man she met in the shop. She widens her eyes in horror and groans
uncertainly.
Hawk presses the knife against her skin tightly. Having made sure she won't resist anymore, he
releases his grip.
Fresh air pours into her nose, and Lily gasps, not daring to move or turn around. "Are you ... Oden?"
The man behind her sneers, "Oden is dead."
Lily's heart once again is in her mouth. How dare he kill people? Who is he?
"You're bolder than your boyfriend." Hawk lands his hand on Lily's smooth shoulder mischievously.
Noticing his touch gives Lily gooseflesh, Hawk presses heavily. "I wanted to come to you yesterday. I've
been restraining for a long time."
...
The scene happening last night in the underground parking lot flashes through Lily's mind. Only then
does she understand. "You were the one who wanted to hit me, weren't you?"
"No, I didn't mean to hit you. I just wanted to warn Rex."
Based on his simple explanation, Lily understands his purpose. Cooperation and purchase are just his
excuses to deliberately approach her.
After figuring out his intention, Lily forces herself to calm down and says, "What do you want to do?"
The calmer she is, the more excited Hawk is. He enjoys terrifying people who are composed.
That kind of gaze full of fear will excite him. Hawk takes delight in making others scared. He is
bloodthirsty and indifferent. Everyone is afraid of him, but Lily is an exception.
It is interesting.
The man presses harder, and the knife inserts half an inch deep into her skin. Dark red blood flows
down Lily's shoulder, and she howls.
"No one can question me!" Hawk stretches out his hand and forces her to face him. He leans forward
slightly and others will think they are kissing. "Because of this case, my subordinates are scared and
worried. Do you know what I am thinking?"
Lily is examining his handsome face. She thought he was a gentleman when she first met him, but now
he looks like a complete freak!
Hawk continues, "I wonder how Rex will be like if he panics. Will he stop or proceed?"
'It is obvious that he is here for Rex, and he wants to threaten Rex by using me.'
This thought flashes through Lily's mind, and she frowns. "You want to use me to control Rex."
"That's right. You are his Achilles heel."
"You're wrong. He won't be hampered by me or anyone else. The most important thing to him is his
work," Lily says with so much certainty in her eyes that no one will suspect that she is lying.
Unfortunately, Hawk is not an ordinary person. He will never be fooled by lies. He believes in what he
sees.
"We'll find it out after we try." After that, Hawk moves the knife that is pressed against Lily's neck
towards her chest, terrifying Lily extremely.
He stares at Lily's trembling body with pleasure. His gaze sends shivers down Lily's spine.
The room is quiet. It is unknown whether she has stayed in the room for too long or officers have
sensed something unusual. Suddenly, there is a knock on the door.
"Miss Lily, are you alright?"
Lily can clearly feel that the knife is pressed harder. She suppresses the fear and tries her best to calm
down. "I'm fine."
No sooner does she finish than the side of her neck is heavily hit. Overwhelmed by a dull pain, Lily has
a blackout and faints.
