Captivated by the Ruler of the Underworld
Chapter 307 Human Nature

Ruby curled up in Lela's arms, trembling uncontrollably. "Devil."

Her teeth chattered as she spoke.

Lela squinted her eyes, a trace of annoyance flashing through them, and scolded, "Stop that."

With that said, she grabbed Ruby's hand and stabbed another pin into it.

Blood gushed out from another leg.

It was like water spurting from a fountain.

Cosmo lowered her head in pain, her face contorted.

She wanted to scream, but no sound came out, just her tears falling.

Lela glared fiercely at Cosmo, and said with her voice filled with anger, "What makes you the one to cry? What makes you use Flora? And after using her, you defamed her!"

Cosmo couldn't retort.

Lela turned to Ruby and said, "For her?"

Cosmo looked at Lela with pleading eyes, feeling extremely anxious.

Ruby's face was pale, and her body no longer trembled but convulsed. "No... I don't know. I don't know."

Lela laughed, grabbed Ruby's hand, and slowly moved the pin towards Ruby's face. "You don't know? Then who exposed Flora's photos? Ruby, could your lies be any more fake?" "And besides, Cosmo is your mother; don't you feel even a little sad?"

"She's not my mom, she's not. She made me post those photos; she forced me to."

Ruby was now consumed by fear and focused solely on shifting the blame. She didn't consider that Cosmo was still her mother, the one who carried her for ten months before giving birth.

All she wanted now was to blame Cosmo, her mother.

'Don't retaliate against me; don't retaliate against me.'

Ruby prayed.

Lela smiled and looked at Cosmo again. "Cosmo, does it hurt to be seen as a devil by the people you've helped?"

Betrayal was the most painful to all.

Cosmo looked at Ruby in disbelief, her eyes full of disappointment, feeling very hurt.

At this moment, Lela tapped Cosmo, and Cosmo found her voice. She coughed a few times and directed her tear-filled eyes at Ruby, expressing regret. "Do you hate me that much? I carried you for ten months and gave you life. I returned to work and planned my life to make you famous. Do you truly hate me to this extent?"

By the end, Cosmo was sobbing uncontrollably, her eyes full of regret.

Ruby ignored Cosmo as if trying to gain favor in front of Lela, turned to Lela, and said with her eyes bloodshot, "I hate her; she abused Flora; she forced me and forced Flora. I'm telling the truth. If She didn't take away Flora's job, Flora wouldn't have died. I don't want to die; please don't kill me."

Cosmo thought of the pain of being forced by Roy's wife back then, thought of the torment of giving birth to Ruby alone, and began to feel resentment.

"Ruby, you are unethical; I really regret it." Cosmo was angry.

She regretted giving birth to Ruby, or maybe not.

Thinking of the person who exposed the photos, Cosmo pleaded with Lela, looking directly at her. "I didn't force her to expose those photos; I trust your judgment. Please don't kill me; I apologize. I was wrong; I'll bow down to you. I'll bow down to her, but please spare my life."

After hearing what she said, Ruby knew she was talking about her.

She was scared too, and like Cosmo, started kowtowing.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Don't kill me, I'm sorry. I owe Flora."

The situation had escalated to this point, where Cosmo and Ruby, the mother and daughter, resented each other. nature! Was it truly like this? What an irony.

Lela watched Cosmo and Ruby's actions, listened to their words, and suddenly felt a wave of nausea; that disgusting feeling suddenly surged up.

Cosmo and Ruby were too disgusting.

Lela flung Ruby away, stood up from behind her, looked down at Cosmo and Ruby, and then turned to look at the night outside the window, her eyes red. She faced the direction of the Divine Doctor Association. "On behalf of Flora, I will never accept your apologies."

Then, Lela recited a spell, her voice very sorrowful.
