In the dark basement, the atmosphere returned to calm.
Although Noya untied the handcuffs and anklets, her body became even more tense.
In the past, when Eli pinched her chin, she would have been very nervous and wanted to break away, but now she didn't dare to move at all, and even her hands on her lower abdomen could not help but tighten.
Not that she accepted Eli's touch.
It's just that her mind is so messed up that she no longer has the heart to care about such things.
Although Noya didn't want to agree with Eli's words.
But she also had to admit that what this guy said was really reasonable.
Judging from the current situation, becoming Eli's maid is really her only way to survive.
As a result, Noya's heart began to fall into an unprecedented tangle, as if an angel and a demon were arguing in her mind.
The devil keeps tempting her, asking her to seize this unique opportunity in her life. Only by accepting Eli's olive branch can she seize the future!
The angel is reminding her that Eli is not trustworthy at all. Once she really breaks through her bottom line and becomes Eli's maid, she will be eaten up by this man sooner or later!
More importantly, if she agrees now, wouldn't she become a clown who never let Eli succeed in her previous life until her death?
Thinking of this, Noya's mentality collapsed a little.
So, after a period of entanglement, she finally chose to respond to the persistence of her previous life, moved her gaze to the side, and whispered: "I have never been a maid... I don't know what to do... ..”
Noah thought this was a very tactful rejection.
But the delicate face, the slender white legs held together, and the pitiful expression will only make people feel that they are trying to resist in return.
Seeing her cute reaction, Eli couldn't help but pause for a moment, then came back to his senses and said calmly: "It's not important, you just need to be obedient."
"..."
Noah was really speechless now. He couldn't even hold back his inner thoughts. He glanced at Eli subconsciously and said sarcastically: "Be obedient? So you just want me to be your dog?"
After all, after being the eldest lady for more than ten years, Noya still has some momentum when she gets angry.
But Eli didn't care about this. Instead, he nodded slightly in agreement and said, "If you want to do this, I can accept it."
"(๑•ᴗ•๑)?"
Noya's expression froze instantly, and she suddenly felt like digging a hole and jumping into it.
"Okay, make your choice."
Perhaps after all that needed to be said, Eli let go of Noya and just waited for her answer quietly.
This time Noya didn't feel any pressure from Eli.
It was as if the other party really entrusted the choice to her.
She could even faintly see a hint of real emotion in Eli's eyes.
There was no doubt that it was a desire for her.
A pure desire, unadulterated by any evil thoughts.
This made Noya suddenly confused.
It was as if she saw the duality of good and bad in Eli.
But at least she realized something. She had never been cared about so much since she was a lonely child.
So, under the influence of childhood memories, Noya accidentally bit her lower lip, looked at Eli subtly, and couldn't help but mutter: "You...do you really want me that much? "
As soon as she finished speaking, she regretted it, feeling like an idiot for asking such a question to her enemy.
Not to mention the crimes Eli had committed against her in his previous life, just locking her in the basement now was enough to make her feel extremely disgusted.
So if you still ask this question now, could it be that you are planning to give Eli a chance to convince her?
Thinking of this, Noya became a little anxious.
But before she could open her mouth again to correct her, Eli replied calmly: "Maybe you don't know yet, but I have been eyeing you since that banquet five years ago, otherwise I wouldn't have been there just after you were arrested. I caught you when I was expelled from the family."
"Ah?" Noah was stunned on the spot.
Then, she saw the corners of Eli's lips rising slightly, revealing a rare and sickly smile, and sighed in a low voice: "I've been waiting for this day...I've been waiting for a long time. ....."
After all, it is the obsession of this life. Even if Eli incorporates the memories from before his reincarnation, this sigh can be said to reveal his true feelings.
Noya also felt the weight of this sentence.
But she no longer knew how to evaluate it.
Five years ago...she was only ten years old, right?
What kind of newborn does it take to be able to think about her all the time from that time on? ?
And if I remember correctly, she only showed up once at the magic family's banquet at that time. Could she be targeted by Eli?
Recalling this incident, Noya couldn't help but feel his scalp numb.
She finally understood that she had underestimated the extent of Eli's perversion after all.
This guy will never give up...
If so...is it still necessary to say no?
For some reason, Noya suddenly felt that his persistence was a bit ridiculous.
Rather than this kind of meaningless persistence, it would be better to agree to Eli's deal without conscience. In the end, you will have to endure the humiliation and bear the burden. The only difference is that you have slightly adjusted your bottom line.
In fact, things like the bottom line can be adjusted back at any time as long as you maintain your original intention.
Noya doesn’t think she will lose her original intention.
Although she was indeed a little shocked by Eli's words, and even felt a little strange, she at least knew what was good and what was bad.
Based on this, Noya was convinced that no matter how Eli tried to confuse her and manipulate her bottom line, she would never collude with this pervert from the bottom of her heart.
And rather than repaying evil with kindness, she prefers to retaliate with evil.
"Come on, tell me your answer."
Eli didn't give Noah much time to think, and urged him again.
And Noya also came back from deep thought and glanced at him with some disdain.
"Do you think it's useful if I refuse?"
"Well, it's no use."
Eli answered truthfully.
Noya didn't expect him to be so direct, and was choked on the spot.
But maybe she had already figured out the answer in her heart, and she didn't bother to argue with Eli. Instead, she gritted her teeth after being speechless for a while, and finally said in a frustrated and soft voice: "Isn't it just to be a maid? I promise you that is the answer. Already..."
Although the mood at the moment was very awkward, Noya did not forget to emphasize that she was a "maid", not a dog.
Not only was this a reminder to Eli, but it was also a reminder to herself.
But Eli didn't care about this at all, it was enough for him.
After all...as long as you open a small hole, are you still worried that you won't be able to get in in the future?
Thinking of this, Eli suppressed the smile in his heart and turned around to leave, leaving only a plain compliment.
"Good, you made a wise choice."
As the words fell, the stone door of the basement opened again, allowing the outdoor light to pour into it.
Even if Eli stepped out, the stone door would no longer be closed.
Seeing Eli's figure fading away, Noya wanted to get up, but in the end he collapsed on the bed with some exhaustion.
It’s pure mental exhaustion.
Now she can't understand the direction of this life at all, and she doesn't know what fate she will face next.
As the distracting thoughts flashed through her mind, Noya couldn't help curling up her soft and slender body like a pitiful girl, as if this was the only way to bring her a sense of security.
