Chapter 1354

Renee repeated herself, rendering Quinton speechless.

Quinton swallowed and clenched his fists, trying to calm himself down as excitement surged in his veins.

"Quinton, are you... alright?" Renee whispered anxiously when he remained silent.

"I'm great!" Quinton took a deep breath, then asked eagerly," Where is she now? What happened to her?"

"Ah, that's a long story..." Renee explained everything to him, then sighed regretfully. "Back then, it was Liam who calmed the for master down, giving Joanne and I the chance to escape. If he hadn't done that, they would have taken out Joanne's organs and sold them. However, even when things were tough, she never gave up."

The dark zone of The Triangle in Southeast Aeos was a dangerous spot, and a pretty woman like Joanne would've been easy prey for all the merciless sadists there.

"Stop, I don't want to hear anymore." Quinton's face turned pale, and his body trembled. He was well aware of the kinds of torture in The Triangle, since the Water Dock's punishments had been inspired by it. Carmine Pawnshop had prospered fast by breaking a lot of rules, and there were many young women who suffered the same fate as Joanne ... and worse. It was also the reason why Quinton had fallen out with Joanne.

He had taken Joanne to Water Dock and built her a courtyard full of her favorite flowers and soft toys. She'd led a carefree and naive life like a princess there, but the world outside of her fairytale castle was horrible. Terrible things happened outside her courtyard, making it a forbidden land for ordinary people.

Quinton had prohibited Joanne from leaving the courtyard, and her initial obedience faded after her boredom caught up to her. She had begged him to take her out but he always turned her down. At last, she managed to sneak out alone, and her entire world crumbled when she witnessed Quinton's cruelty and horrible deeds. It worsened her conflict with Quinton, and she no longer wanted to stay in Water Dock. Quinton then proceeded to lock her up, and then... that tragedy ended everything.

"I locked her up in the courtyard because I was afraid that she might get hurt. The world out there was too cruel and dangerous, and I didn't want to risk her safety. I didn't expect that what I feared most would happen nonetheless." Quinton sighed

remorsefully. Finally, he looked at Renee in disappointment and asked, "So you knew that she's alive. Why did you keep it from me?"
