The Billionaire’s Priceless Darling: 33 Days of the CEO’s Pursuit

Both arms were gripped tightly on either side, and she was dragged before Li Juefeng.

A sharp kick to the back of her knees forced her to kneel, her body collapsing into a posture of utter humiliation and submission.

“Heh. Gu Xiaoai, you’re growing more and more audacious.” Li Juefeng leaned forward from his seat on the sofa, his hand lightly patting her cheek. His voice was as chilling as if it had come straight from the depths of hell.

He despised defiance, especially from women. Yet here she was, daring to challenge him.

“Mr. Li, everything is ready,” the doctor announced, holding the syringe as he approached.

Gu Xiaoai’s eyes locked onto the fine needle tip. Kneeling on the ground, her body began to tremble uncontrollably, the fear within her swelling like a storm.

The syringe inched closer and closer-

No matter how she struggled, the two towering bodyguards held her firmly in place.

Li Juefeng watched her, his gaze icy and detached, his demeanor exuding an untouchable authority.

The needle loomed so close it was almost at her eye level-

Realizing there was no escape this time, Gu Xiaoai let out a desperate, guttural scream. “Li Juefeng, what do I owe you?! What did I ever do to deserve this?! Why?!”

Her voice was so piercing it stunned everyone in the room.

Imprisonment wasn’t enough-now he wanted to inject her with drugs.

She had accepted her role as his mistress, not exactly obedient but at least compliant enough…

What had she done wrong? What had she done to deserve this? What debt did she owe him that warranted such cruelty?

She already felt filthy enough…

Why did he have to utterly destroy her life?

She didn’t want to be enslaved by drugs. She didn’t want to live the rest of her days as a broken, hollow shell of a person-neither human nor ghost.

Tears streamed down her face in torrents, blurring her vision.

The doctor crouched beside her, rolling up her sleeve. He swabbed her frail arm with an alcohol pad.

“Ahhh…” Gu Xiaoai let out a heart-wrenching wail, her voice raw and piercing. Her face was streaked with tears, her lips trembling uncontrollably.

It was a cry of despair so profound it could shatter hearts.

A pain so visceral it was impossible to ignore.

Li Juefeng froze. His flawlessly handsome face went blank, his sharp eyes fixed on the screaming Gu Xiaoai.

He saw her body trembling in terror…

He saw the flood of tears streaming down her face…

There was no beauty in her anguish, yet his heart pounded violently-for her, because of her.

Just as the needle was about to pierce her skin, Li Juefeng suddenly shot to his feet. With a swift, furious kick, he sent the doctor sprawling. His roar echoed through the room, “Get out! All of you, get out!”
