Billionaire Defiant Wife Chapter 857
Advertisement
Gabrielle took the chance and pulled out her hands. She picked up the whistle and blew it.
Eric frowned, and he was a little surprised, "You want to attract wolves? This is not a wolf mountain."
But with such a blow, the shrill sound of the whistle was like a slender needle poking at his eardrum. The original sexual desire of the man was blown away.
He grabbed her by the hand, removed the whistle from her mouth, and wanted to take the whistle from her hand. Gabrielle had a pen in her hand suddenly.
The pen had been originally placed on the nightstand.
She has pulled out the pen cover, put it against the main artery of her neck, and then stared at Eric, "If people in the nation know I'm dead, what do you think will happen?"
Didn't he say she was the soul of the nation and the source of cohesion?
So such a threat would be of use?
Eric was only half a meter away from her, and he leaned over to look at her. The sharp pen has been stabbed into her pale neck skin.
"You think I'm afraid of your threat?" Eric darkened his face. His displeasure was not from her threat. He was precisely afraid that she would influence the people in the nation even if she did nothing.
Gabrielle probably also guessed that Eric would not care about her life or death, "Then have a try."
Eric stared at the place where the tip of the pen stabbed and smiled sinisterly, "You are not afraid of death. I don't mind either."
Gabrielle looked at him in horror. How could he be so selfish?
Just as she did not know what to do next, the howl of wolves came from a distance.

At once, there was a knock at the door, "Lord, there is the howl of wolves. Residents nearby have different levels of panic."
Eric gave a cruel warning to Gabrielle, opened the door, and then went out.
Gabrielle finally had her own space.
Gabrielle's body softened down, but fortunately, the whistle saved her at the last minute.
She rolled over in a hurry, rushed over to lock the door, and dragged the sofa and coffee table behind the door.
After making sure that Eric should not get in, she sat on the sofa, and her body was full of sweat.
However, what if it happened next time?
She shook her head. She had to find a way out of here.
Outside the room, the bodyguard followed Eric walking out of the villa, "Lord, do you want our king to deal with it?"
Eric looked fiercely at the bodyguard and said, "You think I can't deal with it?"
"This is not what I mean. I'm surprised that they support our king unconditionally. It's you who has been taking care of the affairs in the nation."
"Shut up!" Eric interrupted him, impatiently, "I should explain to the public."
"If they continue to be foolish, I'm afraid that it's not beneficial for you. I think it would be better to take this opportunity..." The bodyguard said flatteringly
Eric slowed down his pace. After hearing the bodyguard's words, he quickened his pace and walked out.
Gabrielle did not sleep well; what had happened just now made her uneasy. She didn't dare to go to bed but lay on the sofa for a long time.
The communication signal here was cut off, so she could only play mobile games.
When it was morning, the sofa against the door suddenly slightly shook. There was the sound of patting the door.

"Who is it?"
"Open the door." Outside was the voice of a bodyguard.
The sound of the patting of the door increased, and her eardrum ached.
"What's the matter?"
Gabrielle rose uneasily from the sofa, and the men patting the door were fierce. She was wondering what was going on.
"We need to take you away at the command of the Lord."
"Where are you going to take me?" Gabrielle thought of what had happened last night, and she was more reluctant to open the door. It's very rude for them to pat the door heavily.
The bodyguards didn't want to say more and directly began to kick the door. There was even the sound of prying locks.
There must be a problem.
Gabrielle quickly looked around the room to see if there was any place to go out.
Unfortunately, this was only one door in the room.
Even if she wanted to run, it was obviously too late. The door hit the wall, bounced back, and hit the bodyguards heavily.
At the door, dozens of bodyguards broke in and rushed in to surround her!
"What do you want?" Gabrielle looked at them warily, and now this situation was very terrible.
"You use witchcraft to betray our nation. The Lord respects the demands of the people and orders us to lock you up."
Eric was so angry that he wanted to kill her?
Gabrielle shook her head, "When did I betray the nation?"
"You had secret communication with Mr. Oliver in A Country."
Gabrielle could not help laughing out. No one other than him knew her relationship with Jackson.
"Where are you going to take me?"
"The dungeon."
Gabrielle, "..."
She had intended to escape by this opportunity but did not expect Eric to act faster than her. She would have no chance if she was taken to the dungeon.
She gave a quick look at the bodyguards, who were all expressionless and surrounded her in the middle.
Gabrielle bit her lips, "You get out of the way. I'll go myself."
They passed through a long corridor. The more they walked in, the more ghastly it was.
Along the way there was the sound of metal instruments beating. It was from outside the wall. The wolves were afraid of the heavy metal percussion sound. They did so to defend against the attack of wolves.
Gabrielle was pushed by the bodyguard behind, "Go quickly."
Gabrielle returned to her mind, looking up to the front and found a figure quickly hiding.

Entering the Sieve not to work for victory, but to collect it as a boring chore, she soon finds herself shocked by the difficulty of her tasks, both inside the contest and out. After all, she was also given the privilege of joining at a younger age than anyone else. Machiavellian manipulator Unity Eden is growing tired of the tasks forced onto him by those who control him, unfortunately he also happens to be controlled by the leaders of the largest empire the world has ever seen. While he has little hope of wriggling his way out of it, he intends to make his entry into the Sieve as damaging to them as he can. While most are fixated on the events of the Sieve's stages, intently watching the young and talented as they go head to head to find out who holds the title of strongest, Karma Alabaster has her eyes on the powers behind the curtains- the endless machinations of the Immortals and their servants. Caught between enough crisscrossing schemes to form a spiderweb, she must use every ounce of her not inconsiderable mind to keep herself from playing into another's hands... all while solving a mysterious and seemingly impossible murder. The winds of change are blowing in Bermuda, and only one person will shape them. Cover art by: Nova @no_no_nova on tiktok @no_no_no_nova on ig THREE NEW CHAPTERS POSTED EVERY SINGLE WEEK.
