Chapter 162 The expected result
Xia Qingluo looked at the parrot and said calmly, "If I hadn't seen the grand spectacle of the Colosseum, I would probably have regarded you as a kind person."
Cohen smiled and said, "Parrots are easier to get along with than people. They are very simple-minded. They vent their anger when they are angry and bite people when they are unhappy. They also help me with the decoration..."
After chatting about parrots for a while, Cohen changed the subject and said, "By the way, do you like the clothes I designed for you?"
It would be fine if we didn't talk about this, but as soon as Xia Qingluo mentioned it, he felt sick.
What a nice bag, what a nice dress, what a nice jewelry.
How come it is designed to be such a stupid thing?
Xia Qingluo shrugged, "It's pretty nice. If it wasn't designed by you, I would probably buy a whole set."
Cohen has already gotten used to Xia Qingluo's weirdness.
"How can I let Miss Xia spend money? I have asked someone to pack ten sets for Miss Xia. You can keep one set for yourself and give the rest to your relatives and friends."
Feeling disgusted, right? Then I'll disgust you even more.
Xia Qingluo's eyes turned slightly cold as she met Cohen's smile.
He always had a smile on his face, as if he was wearing a mask, and his every move was like that of a European gentleman.
But Xia Qingluo knew Cohen's true face, so she felt even more disgusted.
Xia Qingluo suppressed the urge to tear Cohen's face apart and asked again, "Speaking of relatives and friends, I wonder if Mr. Cohen has seen my sister."
Xia Qingluo didn't know whether Cohen was the person behind Xia Wan'er, but she knew that the purpose of the person behind the scenes was to make her trust Xia Wan'er.
Therefore, Xia Qingluo had to pretend to have a deep sisterly love.
For the former movie queen, tears can flow at will.
Her beautiful fox eyes blinked gently, a tear ran down the corner of her eye, and flowed down her beautiful little face.
Xia Qingluo deliberately looked at Cohen, letting him see her tears. Her voice trembled and she cried, "My sister is very good to me... She obviously doesn't even want to buy things for herself, but she keeps sending them to me."
"When I encountered the robbers from your Colosseum, my sister kept covering for me and allowed me to escape first..."
Cohen was stunned for a moment, observing Xia Qingluo's expression carefully.
She was crying so hard and was heartbroken, but there was really no sign of any flaws in her.
Cohen knew that Xia Qingluo was an actor with excellent acting skills.
He even caught up on the TV series that Xia Qingluo had previously filmed during his free time playing with the parrot.
Xia Qingluo's acting skills were so superb that he originally just wanted to watch it casually, but he never expected to get so absorbed in it that he watched the entire TV series.
But even so, Cohen was moved by the tears in Xia Qingluo's eyes and really believed that Xia Qingluo cared about Xia Wan'er.
Otherwise, Xia Qingluo would not have posted the missing person notice on the dark web.
That being the case, Cohen was even happier.
He had seen Xia Qingluo's bravery, and he also wanted to see her collapse.
"Ms. Xia, you really asked the right person. I do know where Xia Wan'er is." Cohen pressed the remote control and the projector screen rose from the ground.
Following closely, there is a video.
The video was shot in a dark basement, with water dripping from the cracks in the ceiling, as if every inch of the air was tainted with cold moisture.
The moment Xia Qingluo saw the dim basement, he felt as if a cold current was flowing through his back, and he felt chilled instantly.
The scene before her overlapped with her memories of her previous life, and the fear of being imprisoned in darkness surged into her heart again.
The last moments of her life were spent in such a dark place, where she was ruthlessly abused by Xia Wan'er.
Cohen was keenly aware of Xia Qingluo's changes. He saw that her fists were clenched tightly, her knuckles turned white due to the force, and her whole arms were even shaking slightly.
There was a hint of amusement in his eyes and his smile deepened, as if he was enjoying her fear.
Afterwards, the camera gradually moved forward, as if deliberately creating suspense, and it took a full thirty seconds before Xia Wan'er appeared in the picture.
Xia Wan'er was tied to a cold metal chair, looking horrible.
There was almost no intact area of her skin; it was all covered with festering wounds.
Some were burns, with the skin at the wounds red, swollen and blistered, and turbid liquid flowing out of the broken blisters. Through the video, one could almost smell a disgusting odor;
Some were untreated whip wounds, with deep bloodstains crisscrossing each other. The dried blood coagulated at the edges of the wounds, presenting a terrifying dark red color.
There were also maggots gnawing at the rotten flesh. Those little white bugs wriggling in her wounds were creepy.
Xia Wan'er's face was filled with pain and despair. Her eyes no longer had the luster they once had. Instead, there was a deep fear and helplessness, as if she was a body with its soul taken away.
If Xia Qingluo wasn't too familiar with Xia Wan'er, he probably wouldn't have recognized her.
Cohen raised his hand to touch his black curly hair, his deep-featured face was filled with a smile, "Because you burned down my Colosseum before, I was in a bad mood, so I found something to vent my anger."
"I didn't expect Xia Wan'er to be so important to Miss Xia, so I'm really sorry."
Cohen's apology was completely insincere and was simply meant to deliberately provoke Xia Qingluo.
Xia Qingluo stared at the screen blankly, his eyes revealing complex emotions, and he seemed to be in a trance.
Xia Qingluo slowly asked, "Is she still alive?"
Cohen folded his fingers on his hands, placed them on the armrests of his wheelchair, and supported his chin. "Of course I'm alive. I won't kill anyone."
"But whether she still recognizes you is not certain."
Xia Qingluo blinked his eyes. Oh, it seemed that Xia Wan'er had gone crazy.
She suddenly realized that in her previous life, she was not as miserable as Xia Wan'er in front of her.
Although every minute and every second of that dark imprisonment was torture, it was at least only ten days.
Even so, at least the flesh on her body was not as rotten as Xia Wan'er's now, and she was only enduring whippings, slaps, stabbings, and all kinds of unbearable verbal insults.
She was a commodity at that time, and Xia Wan'er might have wanted to offer her to Cohen, but precisely for this reason, Xia Wan'er did not dare to abuse her too much and did not scratch her face.
Before she fought to the death, she bit off Xia Wan'er's fake nose.
Xia Wan'er probably never expected this.
Cohen, who helped Xia Wan'er become a movie queen and made her successful in her previous life, will make Xia Wan'er fall into hell in this life.
Unconsciously, a crystal tear slowly slid down from the corner of her eye.
That tear seemed to carry most of the pain, grievances and hatred from her previous life.
As this tear fell, it seemed as if something heavy was finally released from the depths of her soul.
Xia Wan'er finally got the result she deserved...
