Chapter 239 Imprisonment.

Hugheska's eyes were now filled with fear as he looked at Grace. Only now did he realize that Grace was not only a gene fusionist, but also a hybrid gene fusionist.

His burned half-face is the best proof!

If this news had come before, he would have been extremely envious of Grace's good fortune, but now, his heart was filled with fear.

If he had known, if he had known earlier, that Grace was a hybrid of different genes, he would never have dared to feel any jealousy.

"I was wrong, please don't kill me, I really know I was wrong, please spare me!" Hugheska, ignoring the pain on his face, begged Grace for mercy, weeping bitterly.

However, Grace's gaze remained devoid of any warmth.

“From the moment you started slandering her, there was no turning back.” Grace stood there like the Grim Reaper, calmly pronouncing his death sentence.

Hugheska shook his head and said, "I really know I was wrong. I will never do it again. I was just confused for a moment. After all, we are brothers. Grace, you can't treat me like this. What will people think if word gets out? You can't kill me!"

"Do you think I care about what others think?" If he really cared, why would he have gone to overthrow the imperial rule?

Upon hearing this, Hugheska seemed to realize something as well, and he was filled with terror, because he found that he had no reason to persuade the other party to give up his desire to kill him.

Seeing that Hugheska seemed to realize something and stopped struggling and begging for mercy in vain, Grace curled her lips into a smile: "I won't kill you. Only by living and suffering can you cleanse your sins. You can stay here."

Grace finished speaking and turned to walk towards the door.

Hugheska finally realized what was happening and shouted, "Grace, where are you going? Come back! You can't leave! What is this place? I don't want to stay here!"

However, all he received in response was the cold sound of the door closing.

At that moment, Hugheska truly realized that death might be a relief for him, while living was a torment.

Because he might spend the rest of his life in this dark and sunless dungeon, living like a rat that can never see the light of day.

This is Grace's revenge!
At this moment, Hugheska realized the disaster that his pleas for mercy had brought upon him.

"I was wrong, I was wrong, Grace, you're back! Kill me! Kill me! I don't want to live in a place like this! Kill me! Ahhh!"

Grace came out of the cell, took off her gloves and tossed them to the man standing there: "Keep an eye on him."

"Yes, sir."

Grace did not leave immediately, but instead went to visit Lustan.

The door opened, and Lustan was still sitting on the floor fiddling with the pile of loose parts. Hearing the noise, he turned around and asked, "A new resident has moved in next door?"

Grace walked over and sat on the sofa: "Yes, you have someone to keep you company now."

"You're really ruthless. He's still your brother, after all."

"But he touched someone he shouldn't have. I've already done enough by not killing him, haven't I?"

“But isn’t this worse than death, Hugheska? I haven’t seen him in a long time.”

"He's not your son, so why do you still have feelings for him?"

“Although it has nothing to do with me, I did hold him when he was a child. As a gene fusion user, he was quite pampered, much more so than you.” Lustan glanced at Grace as he said this, “But who would have thought that you would surpass him.”

"Yes, I'm lucky. Otherwise, how could I have met a female master like Duke Lu Xia?"

Even Lustan cannot deny this point.

Duke Lu Xia is indeed a very good mistress. "I heard that she has developed a natural conception agent. Was your male child conceived naturally?"

Hearing this, Grace was not surprised. Lustan was never a fool, and it was normal for him to be able to analyze the truth from a single piece of information.

"Yes, but you'll never get to see it, so don't worry about it."

"Hehe, that's good. It doesn't matter whether I see him or not, as long as he's there, that's enough. Just train him well."

“I will.” Grace stood up, left those words behind, and turned to leave.

As the door closed again, Lustan chuckled softly and then began to hum a song.

Clearly, Grace's arrival gave him the answers he wanted, and his mood improved.

After leaving here, Grace went straight back to Duke Leslie's mansion.

Duke Leslie was startled to see him return and quickly asked, "Why did you come back so suddenly? Did something happen?"

"Husca went to see Duke Lu Xia."

"What!" These words immediately changed Duke Leslie's expression. "Is Xiaxia alright?"

Seeing that Duke Leslie's sudden change in expression was genuine, Grace knew that Duke Leslie was unaware that Hugheska had appeared before Duke Lu Xia.

When she spoke again, her voice was softer: "It's nothing, I was stopped by security."

"That's good, that's good. That brat, how could he be such a scoundrel? Where is he now!"

"They've been sent away; they can no longer remain on the Imperial Star."

"Yes, we can't keep him. That's what I thought too. Since you did it, then it's fine. Luckily, that bastard didn't do anything to hurt Lu Xia. Thinking about it now, I'm still scared. If I had known, I would have broken his legs and thrown him out!"

Upon hearing this, Grace sat down to the side without responding.

But he believed that Duke Leslie's words were sincere.

Duke Leslie, who always prioritizes profit, will abandon even his own male sons if they cannot bring benefits to the family.

He was already well aware of this when he was given to Lu Xia.

However, he was lucky, and Duke Lu Xia was not as rumored.

"You came to see me just for this?"

"I should have informed you about this incident."

"Since Xiaxia is alright, you can just send me a message. Aren't you very busy right now? Hugheska isn't important."

"I am quite busy, but I still have time to come and see you. Also, I should let you know when I'm seeing Hughesca off."

"From now on, you don't need to tell me about his affairs. I'll just pretend that bastard never existed. Just thinking about him makes me upset. If he were even a little bit more sensible than you, he wouldn't have done something like this. Okay, okay, let's not talk about him anymore. It makes me angry just thinking about him."

Duke Leslie waved his hand as he spoke, as if that would free him from thinking about Hugheska.

"Okay, then I'll handle things concerning him from now on and won't let his affairs bother Mother anymore."

"That's perfect!"
