Chapter 599 Tease
"You seem confident, Chief Macall. Let's see who the winner will be, then." As Elspeth spoke, she
glanced sideways. Suddenly, dozens of men in black appeared from the corner.
"Get them," she said.
The men in black obeyed her orders and sprinted toward the villagers.
Don didn't expect her to bring along reinforcement. In that split second, his face turned pale. "How did
they get here?"
"I left some markings on the way here. It's only normal that they've arrived now since several days
have passed. Now, it's time for you to pay for your sins." Elspeth smirked coldly.
When Don looked at the men in black, all of them were strong and bulky. Thus, he cowered in fear and
begged, "This is just a misunderstanding. We are just here to bid farewell."
Hearing his words, Yelena couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"You sure know how to talk nonsense." Elspeth raised her eyebrow. "Since you are here to bid your
goodbyes, shouldn't you act like it?"
Don immediately searched his pocket and found a few bucks. "Is this enough? I only have this much
money on me."
Although Don didn't want to give his money to Elspeth, he knew this was an exchange for his life.
Elspeth signaled the man beside her to take the money. However, as soon as she got the money, she
threw it on the ground and said, "Whom are you trying to fool with such a small amount of money? I

don't want this."
When Don saw that she had thrown the money he cherished to the ground, he was heartbroken. "What
do you want?" he asked.
Elspeth pointed at the mountains and said, "I want you to let go of all those women you have
abducted."
At that moment, Don was in denial.
"But it was the villagers who bought them; I have nothing to do with it. If I let them go, the villagers
would be furious." Don shrugged, seemingly as if he couldn't do anything.
"If you can't handle this matter, I don't think there is a reason for you to become the chief anymore."
The man beside Elspeth immediately raised his knife toward Don.
"No! I'll do it, alright?!" Don lowered his head in devastation.
"Okay. Yelena, take Federick to the hospital. I'll rescue those women with Callum."
"Okay." Yelena nodded. Then, she looked at them nervously. "Please be careful."
After Yelena and Federick left, Callum and Elspeth returned to the village. On the way back, Don
looked around sneakily, seemingly as if he was waiting for something. Elspeth noticed it and told
Callum to stay alert.
Many women had been abducted, and some older women were reluctant to leave after they had given
birth. Thus, Elspeth told them she would give them some money if they insisted on staying. However,
some troublemakers were unwilling to let the women leave. After all, they had spent their money on
those women for them to bear their children. Thus, how would they be willing to let those women
leave?
"If you want to take her away, you must step over my dead body first." A man was throwing a tantrum
on the floor. He knew he was no match against those men, so he threw a fit.
"Well then, I guess I have no choice." Elspeth took out a knife and threw it on the floor. "Do you want
me to help you with that?"
The man never expected her to take action since he didn't mean it. At that moment, he quickly got up
and said, "I was just joking."
Elspeth looked at the miserable girl behind the man and waved at her. "Come here."
The girl quickly smiled and ran toward Elspeth.
Soon, Elspeth had gathered dozens of women. Looking at their faces filled with fear, she took a deep
breath and said, "Don't worry, I'm going to get you guys out of here."
Among the women, there were teenagers and middle-aged women present.
When they heard Elspeth's words, their eyes lit up for a second before dimming once again.
"Can we really escape from here?"
"Of course. I will keep my word and get you guys out of here." Elspeth nodded her head confidently.
"But we are not the same anymore. Even if we were to get out of here, we'll always be mocked by
others." One of the women voiced her concerns as she lowered her head.
Initially, she was a college student with remarkable grades. However, she was abducted because she
had talked to a stranger on a trip. Just like that, her life was ruined.
"Why would they look down upon you? As long as you live your life to the fullest, no one will ever say
anything bad about you." Elspeth walked toward the girl and held her hands. She was heartbroken
when she saw the scars on the girl's delicate skin. "You are a student, right? You can continue studying

At this moment, Callum stepped forward and wrapped his arm around her shoulder. "It's time to leave."
Hearing his words, Elspeth nodded. She had already ordered those men to get more cars, so there
would be enough space for everyone to sit.
In the end, Elspeth left the village with a bunch of people. After they left the mountain, she ordered her
men to send the women back to where they came from before returning to Evil Wind Sect. Then, she
went to the hospital with Callum.
Since Federick's chest wasn't severely injured, they admitted him to the ward once he was fully
bandaged. At that moment, Yelena was taking care of him.
"Does Hank know about this?"
Yelena nodded and replied, "I just called him. He should be here any moment."
When Federick heard the unfamiliar name, he smiled and asked, "Is he your boyfriend?"
"Yes. We have been together for a year." Yelena nodded with a smile.
Hearing her words, Federick lowered his head and looked at the white sheets, seemingly in deep
thought. "That's great."
"How about you, Federick? Have you been in a relationship with anyone after all these years?" Yelena
teased.
"No. I have never been in a relationship before."
"What? Are you sure?" Yelena said exasperatedly.
"Yes. I'm too busy to have a girlfriend."
Elspeth suddenly burst out laughing.
