Contracted Bride Is Trapped By Her Husband

Although Miles was already determined to kill Jocelyn, he acted like he was innocuous.

"I think you have a point. I can give you the recording, but right now, you need to help me get into bed. It doesn't feel good lying on the ground."

Miles made a very uncomfortable expression. He wanted to use this expression to deceive Jocelyn.

His numb body had not fully recovered, but his arm had already regained some strength.

If Jocelyn approached him, he was 80% sure that he could lock her neck and suffocate her to death.

Miles's acting skills were not very good. Jocelyn could easily see through Miles's tricks. Although Miles had already been electrocuted to the point where he collapsed to the ground, Jocelyn still did not dare to lower her guard.

Seeing that Miles was paralyzed on the ground and unable to resist at all, she vigilantly walked towards him in small steps and finally came to his side.
