Logan held the microphone, grimming as he bowed to the rich men on the second floor; the obsequious way he did it made Waylon’s teeth ache.
“This man is hereby removed from the Stone family registry. He’s a disgrace to the Stones!”
Natalie stayed silent. Things like this were naturally handled by her brother.
Baron stared at Logan, his hands clenched tightly. Logan had no idea someone was watching his every move from the surveillance room.
After exchanging pleasantries with the rich men, Logan cleared his throat and said with a bright smile, “Gentlemen, once again we’ve reached an exciting moment! Has everyone got their money ready?”
“Ready!”
Jacob and the others shouted back in unison.
“Mr. Logan,” Jacob said, standing up, “money’s not an issue–but we want something thrilling!”
Logan laughed quickly, nodding.
“Of course, of course. I guarantee you’ll be satisfied, Mr. Jacob. These past few days, I’ve found something special–top quality. The body on this one, tsk, tsk; I promise you’ll all love her. And she’s got skills too. If I hadn’t used some… techniques, I might not have been able to capture her.”
Logan’s words made Natalie’s heart sink. He’s not talking about Yvonne … is he?
Baron’s face turned frighteningly cold.
“He’d better pray it’s not Yvonne,” Baron said through gritted teeth, “or I’ll make sure he begs for death before I’m done with him.”
Waylon’s face darkened as well, though his thoughts weren’t as optimistic as Natalie’s.
At the mention of a beautiful woman, Jacob’s excitement only grew,
“Mr. Logan, if this girl you’ve found really satisfies me, name your price–I’ll pay it.”
“Oh, Mr. Jacob, such generosity!” Logan laughed. “But what’s our theme when we play together? Thrills! Ordinary beauties are boring. Have any of you seen Beauty and the Beast?

Well, tonight, I’ll show you what a real battle between beauty and beast looks like. And if the girl’s still alive afterward–gentlemen, the highest bidder wins.”
The moment he finished, sharp whistles erupted from the second floor, piercing the air.
Natalie shot to her feet.
“What are they doing? What does he mean by beauty and beast? What does he mean if she’s still alive?”
Baron grabbed her wrist before she could move.
“Watch first.”
Natalie could feel the murderous aura rolling off him; it reminded her of the first time she’d seen him at the Luke Corp press conference.
Ever since their marriage, Baron had deliberately kept his sharper edges hidden around her- so much so that she had almost forgotten who he really was.
Now, seeing him this angry, she knew this wasn’t simple.
Maybe Baron had already guessed what was coming.
“Baron,” she whispered, “you’ve figured it out, haven’t you?”
“There used to be something called a colosseum,” he said.
That one sentence made Natalie’s eyes widen in disbelief.
But Logan didn’t give her time to process it. At the sound of drums and gongs, a woman in ragged clothes was dragged out by a rope.
Her face was smeared with camouflage paint; her outfit, made of primitive animal hide, barely covered her body. With every struggle and step she took, it threatened to slip further out of place,
Her legs were covered in wounds, but even so, it was clear they were long and slender enough to draw wild cheers and whistles from the men upstairs.
Tears welled in Natalie’s eyes.
“That’s Yvonne?”
She couldn’t believe it. Couldn’t accept it.

Yvonne–the girl who had taken care of her when she was paralyzed–now looked so utterly
broken.
But before Natalie could even process the shock, another group entered from the other side- leading a tiger.
Yes, a tiger. And judging by its appearance, it hadn’t been fed in days. The hunger burning in its eyes made Natalie’s blood run cold.
She clutched Baron’s arm, her voice trembling. “Logan… he’s not planning to make Yvonne fight that tiger, is he?”
Baron’s eyes were filled with murder; the scalpel hidden in his sleeve had already slid into his palm. Anyone who dared touch what was his… was courting death.
Waylon shot to his feet as well.
He never imagined Logan would commit such monstrous acts–right here in the Stone residence.
Unforgivable.
The fight hadn’t even begun yet; the tiger was still restrained, while Yvonne struggled helplessly against the ropes binding her.
She looked around–the place was surrounded by electric fences. There is no escape. Am I really going to die here today?
Just then, a thin, frail man stumbled into the room.
