The Robin Hood Society (Jacob And The Heiress) - Chapter 654
Senator Rizza’s heart started pounding on her chest making her catch her breath. Are they going to kill her by drowning her?
“You don’t have declined board here,” Arthur said nonchalantly. He has taken a seat on a chair in the corner of the room.
“Oh, right,” Felix said as if he realized something. “How about stress position?”
Stress positions are a form of torture where the victims are forced to stand, handcuffed and with their feet shackled to an eye bolt in the floor or wall, for more than 40 hours, causing their weight to be placed on just one or two muscles. This creates an intense amount of pressure on the legs, leading first to pain and then muscle failure.
Senator Rizza started sweating.
“You don’t have cuffs or shackles.” Arthur again said.
Hearing this, Stefan looked at Arthur then he turned to Felix. “Why didn’t you bring one if you planned on torturing Senator Rizza?”
Felix shrugged his shoulders and said, “Well I never thought of that. We can just strike her abdomen, or slap her and shake her. We won’t need a device.”
Senator Rizza started shaking and felt dizzy.
Why don’t they just do what they are saying instead of discussing those things in front of her making her mentally tormented?
Physical pain is better than mental pain.
Stefan shook his head. “I always thought that the military’s form of torture is too lenient.”
“Well, they only do that to gain information,” Felix replied.
“But we are not after information here. We are after punishment.” Stefan said. They seemed to have lost the interest of physically torturing the Senator.
It should be good but Senator Rizza felt like she is already losing her sanity.
Arthur watched as Senator Rizza slumped herself on the bed. Her hands clasped on her chest while trying to catch her breath. Thou the lights of the room is dimmed, her face has obviously paled. Beads of sweat formed on her forehead.
Being born from a rich family, Senator Rizza was used to be overindulged. She gets whatever she wants in excess. She only sees the world in her own perspective making her a self-centered person. She thinks that she is the only woman in the world that when another person got what she wants, she would go nuts and will try to obliterate them thinking that it is what they deserve.
She doesn’t have any experience of pain and suffering. All she had and know is grandiosity.
So, the thought of her in pain is nerve-wracking enough to put her in this state.
Arthur has been observing her earlier. The conversation earlier about how to punish her through surgery and memory erasure made her confused and scared at the same time. But it seems that she is still not believing that it is possible. That they would really go to that extent.
That is the purpose of her presence in that room. To make her experience fear. To make her confuse what is reality and nightmare.
And now, it is time to make her thought of pain before letting her experience it in the next days.
Arthur stood up from his seat and walk towards Senator Rizza. As much as he wanted to avoid an egoistic person like her, that can’t be help especially when she is unreasonably aggressive towards the person he is protecting.
“Senator Rizza, you did this to yourself by thinking that you are more important than anybody else. Do you think you are the only one who deserves adoration? There are other people who deserve that more than you.”
“Do you think you are the only one who can steal another person’s money that when someone stole yours, you would go ballistic and just go around ordering everyone to assassinate someone?”
“The world doesn’t revolve around you, and you only. You’ll realize that in the coming days.” Arthur surprised Stefan and Felix by speaking a lot of words within just five minutes.
He must’ve been too disgusted by her to say a lot of words. But sometimes, words are not enough to express one’s anger and disgust.
Senator Rizza raised her head to look at Arthur. “Can you…let…me go? I-I’ll pay…what…ever amount. What…e-ever y-you wants.” Senator Rizza stuttered. This is her last chance to plead. Because it seems that tomorrow, her nightmares will turn into reality.
“Whatever we want?” Arthur asked then cocked his head.
“I’m afraid, we’ll never get what we want if we let you go.” He said in a cold tone.
“And besides, Doctor Miller and Doctor Taylor will kill us if we release their lab rat,” Felix added with amusement. It seems like Senator Rizza finally realized what she got herself into.
Without a word, Arthur turned to leave.
Seeing that they are already done, Felix said. “Rest well, Senator Rizza.” Then they followed Arthur.
