"Do not tell me you put this man to watch over us?" Kristie exclaimed, her lips curved upward, and her eyes looked down on Barbara.
Barbara, on the other hand, lowered her head in shame. Hours ago, she was boasting about her plan and now she felt as if she was shot in her foot. She cleared her voice. "Things like this happened," she said casually, concealing her embarrassment.
However, the look on Kristie's face screamed with belittling and amusement. Barbara pursed her lips.
"What is your plan now?" Kristie asked.
Barbara pondered for a while, then gazed at Kristie. "Aren't you the famous Venom? You will help me escape, won't you?" she suggested.
"I do not work without payment, so what is your offer?" she stated.
"Isn't staying at the palace and enjoying a life of luxury and comfort enough?" Barbara said.
"Enduring the prince's whims had killed everything!" Kristie frowned.
