Chapter 880: Chapter 878 Karma

Chapter 878 Karma

Daohu pushed Leandro towards the seat opposite to Lily. "You can't treat me like this!"

"Says who?" Lily asked without raising her head. She started playing the video on her tablet. "I say… Mikaela is such a good actress, don't you agree?"

"What— What are you planning to do? I am warning you. If you try to do this…"

"You can't scare me, Leandro. Please… we all know that the only person who should be scared at the moment is you and of course… your criminal sister." Lily said.

"Don't post it!" Leandro pleaded. "I— I will do anything! Don't post it! That will ruin me and Mikaela."

"Alright." Lily immediately nodded before she gave the tablet to him. "Send a hundred million in USD to that account."

"What?" Of course, this was enough to surprise him. What is going on? He eyed the bank account number in front of him. "What are you talking about?"

"You should pay a price for my silence. A hundred million should be worth it, don't you think?"

"I— I don't have that much…"

"Please… stop lying." Finally, Lily raised her head as she met his eyes. "Send it now. Or… I post the video." Contrary to her devious words, Lily's smile was gentle to the point where most people would call it angelic. "I want it now your highness. My patience will run out in thirty minutes."

Leandro nervously eyed Lily. A hundred million bank transfer was not something he could do without informing his bank.

"The banks already know about it. There is no need for you to call. Just transfer the money and everything will be fine."

"What about the video?" He asked.

"What about it?"

"Are you going to delete it?"

"Of course. I will delete it in front of you." The smile on her face never faltered. If one could see Lily right now, they would think she was only trying to make another business deal. No one would be able to tell that she was trying to blackmail someone. "So? What do you think, your highness?"

"That… A… A hundred million and you will delete the video?"

"I already told you. I won't post it."

"How can… how can I trust you?"

"If I wanted to post the video I would have done it without talking to you, your highness. I don't need money… yet I believe that everything you do has its own karma. If you don't want me to post the video, then the least you could do is pay me some money to compensate for the damages to my emotional state. This would also cut the strands of Karma that connects us. Don't you agree?"

"You—" He could not help but wonder if this woman had gone mad. Karma? Strands of Karma? What the hell was she talking about?

Lily chuckled. "Of course… I am not forcing you to do so. You have twenty four minutes to decide."

Leandro stared at Lily. A hundred million in USD was a big amount and giving that much money to Lily would surely alert some people. However, not giving her the money would mean that the video would be made public and that would be the end of him and Mikaela. Frowning, Leandro lowered his head. His phone was currently in his jacket pocket. One call and he could summon his guards inside.

However, he was not sure whether those people were on his side. After all, he was already convinced that Lily and Zhou Jingren must have had spies inside the palace. That could be the reason why they were able to come and go without alerting the guards. His mind took him to Lily's bodyguard who was standing like a huge boulder behind her.

While Leandro knew a little bit of martial arts, he was not particularly good at it. He was only learning for the sake of knowing something to defend himself. However, he never considered himself an expert at fighting. If he attacked Lily now, there was no guarantee that the guard would not kill him in one strike. Moreover, he was not very sure about Lily's skills either.

Two versus One.

He was already at a disadvantage. Leandro could not help but swallow the hostility in his throat as he slowly nodded. "I will send it to you. But you have to delete the video in front of me."

"Of course. And I will guarantee that I will never post it online. I am after all a business woman. I value my word and my promises."

Seeing the confidence in Lily's voice, Leandro bit his lips and opened his bank using Lily's tablet. He then started transferring her the money that she wanted. The fact that the bank immediately approved the transaction without even calling him made him shiver. This was an international bank! How could Lily make them approve the transaction of a royalty like him?

"Forty percent…" He uttered as he gave her back her tablet. "Now… I want to see you delete it."

"When the transaction is completed. I will naturally delete it, your highness." Lily smirked as she eyed the tablet.

[COMPLETED]

The smile on Lily's face grew wider. "Now… I will show you that I will delete the video." Lily then showed him how she cleared all the files in her cloud account and the files inside the tablet.

"So that's it?" He couldn't help but ask.

"What do you mean?"

"This… All the trouble… the pictures. It's all gone now?"

"Of course." Lily answered. "As I said… I always keep my words."

"Then…. Then… you are not going to harm me or Mikaela? You are not going to involve yourself in our business anymore?"

"That's right. I will not involve myself with your family. I will leave and never come back" She eyed the structure inside the room. "I find this palace scary anyway. It's ominous and dark. I wouldn't want to come back in here."

"Then… Leave… please leave me alone and don't disturb my family! As you said… the— the strands of Karma are no longer present."

Like a snake looking at its prey, Lily tilted her head, her scarlet lips curling into a devious smile as she said, "Of course."

And that was the last thing that Leandro remembered before his consciousness left him.
