The anger in Lucy's heart burned even more fiercely.
She didn't want to endure it anymore.
She lifted her foot and wanted to kick Isabella a few more times, but was stopped by Eisner.
He said gloomily, "Lucy, you're really becoming more and more reckless. In order to force me to stay, you actually found someone to stage a show of self - inflicted injury?"
"Can you use such things to compete for my favor?"
Lucy sneered, "Compete for favor? What favor am I competing for with your sister - in - law? Or do you think of yourself as your dead elder brother?"
"You!"
Eisner was so angry that he couldn't speak, but Isabella stood up and blocked in front of him.
"Lucy, direct all your anger at me. Eisner is innocent. He just pities me and the little werewolf cub and is just trying to help me."
"Even if we truly loved each other sincerely, those are all in the past. You're so desperate to stop him from leaving that you even hurt yourself. You just look down on me, a commoner, because you were born into a wealthy family."
Lucy's face suddenly turned deathly pale. She stared blankly at Eisner.
Suddenly, she remembered what he had said when he destroyed the Atlant family in her previous life.
"Lucy, you're just relying on your good birth to bully Isabella like this. If the Atlant family is gone, would you still dare to do so?"
She felt so suffocated that she could hardly breathe. In her previous life, because of this ridiculous love, she had not only ruined herself but also harmed her family who loved her.
Eisner stared at Lucy with eyes full of gloom.
"You're too wanton. This isn't your family's territory. Even if I've always protected you, something will happen sooner or later. You need to learn a lesson."
Lucy felt as if an ice - cold knife was cutting at her heart inch by inch, painful and cold, with nowhere to escape.
She wanted to say, "But in my previous life, it was clearly you who left me in hell to be trampled on and made my life a living hell."
But she felt it was unnecessary and didn't need to say it.
She didn't want to get involved with them anymore.
Five years ago, she came to this strange place for Eisner and joined the werewolf gang.
Now that she didn't want him anymore, there was no need for her to stay.
She still had a mission in five days. After the mission was over, she could draw a clear line forever.
Thinking of this, she ignored the two of them and fetched the first - aid kit to disinfect and bandage her finger.
Just as she was halfway through wrapping the gauze, Lucy's phone rang. It was a call from her sister from the family territory.
While she was bandaging, her hand accidentally touched the wrong button, and her sister's voice came out from the speaker.
"Lucy, what's this about an arranged marriage?"
As soon as Eisner heard the words "arranged marriage", his face immediately darkened. Isabella's face turned deathly pale. She seemed extremely heart - broken, covered her chest, and started gasping for breath again.
She forcefully pushed away Eisner, who was concernedly patting her on the chest, took two steps back, and turned around to leave.
Eisner quickly chased after her. Before leaving, he didn't forget to say,
"Lucy, I've already told you to put the matter of our union on hold for now. You're actually using your sister to force me into an arranged marriage. You're really hopeless."
After they had all left, Lucy answered the phone with a sneering smile on her face.
"Lucy, why aren't you saying a word? What's this about Victor saying he wants to marry you?"
This sister of hers really gave Lucy a huge headache.
Lucy was the late - born daughter of the head of the Atlant family. She had been doted on at home since childhood, and her sister treated her like a daughter.
She had been chasing after Eisner since she was a child, saying that she liked him, and came here after him when she was 20.
Now that Victor said he wanted to marry her, if Lucy didn't want to, her sister would stop it at any cost.
"Lucy, if you don't want to, tell your sister. The person you like isn't Eisner..."
But before she could finish speaking, Lucy interrupted her. Her voice was a bit distorted during the long - distance data transmission.
"Sister, I've agreed to marry Victor. The person I want to marry is him."
Her sister was silent.
"I'll come back after I've finished dealing with things here. It'll take about five days."
After hanging up the phone, Lucy didn't forget to give herself a tetanus shot.
Just as she put down the syringe, Eisner helped Isabella back.
He helped her sit down on the sofa.
There was extreme and barely - contained tolerance on his face.
"Lucy, have you forgotten the rules of the gang?"
"Leaving your post without permission, deceiving your superiors and concealing the truth, maliciously sowing discord, and bullying the weak. As the leader of the gang, my punishment for you is 99 army - stick beatings. Do you have any objections?"
