Chapter 252 Completely Infuriating Her

Chapter 252 Completely Infuriating Her

Louis wasn't about to let Emily get away with anything. He stepped forward, shielding Elizabeth, and grabbed Emily, pinning her against the cold wall with a swift motion.

In the next moment, he seized Emily's wrist and hair, his grip like a vice, causing her to gasp in pain. He didn't let go, instead issuing a low, menacing warning.

"My patience is running thin. If you so much as touch a hair on Elizabeth's head again, you'll find out what it means to die a miserable death."

A flash of cold steel, and a sharp knife was pressed against Emily's throat, the icy touch sending shivers down her neck.

Emily's eyes widened in shock. She followed the slender wrist holding the knife and met Elizabeth's gaze, trembling with disbelief.

"How did you get that knife up here? There's strict security when entering the lab. There's no way such a sharp weapon could go unnoticed!"

"There's surveillance here. How dare you lay a hand on me! Watch out, Mr. Ramirez will kill you!"

Elizabeth gave a sinister smile in response to her question, veins pulsing at her temple, looking like a demon.

She suddenly grabbed Emily's jaw with her other hand, her thumb grinding into Emily's cheek, as if she were looking at an insect.

"You think you have the right to question me?"

Elizabeth leaned in, her breath filled with contempt.

"As for the surveillance, Ms. Perez, there's a camera right above us. Why don't you check later to see if this part is recorded?"

With the cold knife at her throat, Emily looked up, trembling.

The red light on the camera above had disappeared. The surveillance had been turned off long ago.

Emily felt utterly hopeless, staring at the enraged Louis and Elizabeth, suddenly regretting her actions.

She forced herself to stand despite her trembling body, her life in their hands, and managed a sycophantic smile, stammering an apology.

"I'm sorry, I misspoke earlier. I was just joking, please don't take it seriously!"

Emily knew Elizabeth well enough to understand that she feared nothing.

Elizabeth, holding a knife to someone's throat, wouldn't hesitate to kill!

Especially now, with the Moore family backing her.

Emily had no idea how Elizabeth managed to bring the knife in, but she was terrified, her previous arrogance completely gone.

Emily's submissive demeanor was a stark contrast, like a different person.

Seeing that Elizabeth and Louis remained silent, just staring at her, Emily, pinned against the wall, gathered her courage to speak again.

"I'm sorry. If you want a better room, I'll arrange it for you right now!"

"I..."

Before she could finish, a sharp slap interrupted her.

Elizabeth casually withdrew her hand, looking at her reddened palm from the slap, shaking her head in displeasure.

"Why is there a dog barking?"

Louis understood, pressing Emily tighter, forcing her to lift her head, revealing the bright red handprint on her face.

"Weren't you just so proud? Didn't you love bullying people? Now that Colt's not here, is this all you're capable of?"

Louis pressed so tightly that Emily couldn't struggle, especially with the knife at her throat. Elizabeth, this lunatic, could kill her at any moment.

Faced with humiliation, Emily had no choice but to endure it silently, admitting defeat.

"I'm sorry. I apologize. Please let me go this time."

After she spoke, Elizabeth let go.

But this time, her smile was even more terrifying than Emily's earlier one.

"Alright, no rush. Once we're on the isolated science island, let's see who gets rid of whom first!"

With that, Elizabeth grabbed Emily's collar and threw her into the room, snatching a key from her waist.

"Since you carefully selected this crappy room for me, you can have it. I'll take your room."

Elizabeth turned and walked away without looking back.

Louis even took out a tissue to wipe his hands, disgusted by the contact with Emily.

This scene deeply wounded Emily's pride.

Watching their backs, she looked around, suddenly relieved that no other students were assigned to this area.

Otherwise, it would be incredibly embarrassing if anyone saw her like this!

Left alone, Emily trembled with rage. She looked at the mess in the room and angrily swept everything off the table, her sharp voice filling the room.

"Elizabeth! You bitch!"

Emily grabbed a glass and smashed it on the ground, the shards reflecting her twisted, angry face.

Leaving the scene, Louis gave Elizabeth a thumbs-up.

"Elizabeth, I knew you weren't the type to be bullied. But I didn't expect you to bring a knife in, and what's with the surveillance?"

Louis had been ready to go all out, not caring about offending Colt, knowing Matthew had his back.

But Elizabeth had her methods, solving the problem with Emily right then and there.

Elizabeth walked into the new room, tossing a jammer from her bag for Louis to see.

"Emily is the main person in charge this time. I knew she'd cause trouble as soon as we left the lab."

"I don't like dragging things out. With the surveillance blocked, I have plenty of ways to make her beg."

As for the knife, it was a gift from Henry, bypassing the lab's security entirely. She hadn't expected to use it so soon.

Louis looked at her with admiration.

"No wonder you're you. You and Matthew are a perfect match!"

Elizabeth had no interest in his flattery, inspecting the new room.

As the person in charge, Emily's room was indeed different, a stark contrast to the previous environment!

This was a suite, over a thousand square feet, with a beautiful setting.

Opening the balcony door, the terrace revealed turquoise waters crashing against the rocks, the mist from the waves creating tiny rainbows.

The nearby beach shimmered with a pearly glow, showcasing the best views of the science island.

Elizabeth felt great looking at this scene.

That dark, damp little room was smaller than the bathroom here. Emily should be thrilled to stay in the room she chose, right?
