Chapter 894: How Does It Feel Being A Prisoner

In her entire life, the high priest had probably never been humiliated like this!

Even when she was threatened with a dagger by Jiang Xuecheng, the high priest knew that victory was within her grasp. Jiang Xuecheng would definitely compromise with her for Su Wan!

However, Fiennes was different!

The high priest suddenly began to regret. Although she had long known that the group of nobles represented by Fiennes were ready to make a move, she had not truly grasped their Achilles’ heel!

The High Priest’s pair of red phoenix eyes stared at the man in front of her. Because someone had tightly grasped her chin, her cold and elegant face revealed some pain, which contrasted with the tear mole at the corner of her right eye, making her look even more delicate and moving.

She was almost gnashing her teeth, wishing that she could rush up and directly bite Fiennes’ throat like a wild beast.

But Fiennes had suppressed her firmly, and coupled with the shackles on her, the high priest could not do anything at all!

“You disgusting bastard! A lowly maid-born commoner! I should never have agreed to let your father appoint you as the next head of the family!”

The high priest felt even more regretful over why she had agreed to the application of the Siswell family in the past!

That was because Fiennes was not the child of Diya’s mother. If they wanted to appoint him as the successor, there would naturally be many procedures to follow.

One of them was to get the high priest’s approval.

The high priest remembered that it was the first time she had seen this young man in front of her.

However, at that time, Fiennes could not be considered a young man. At most, he could was a teenager.

He was not even as tall as the high priest, but his pair of azure blue eyes were surprisingly calm. He never looked around.

He stood there like a string puppet that had been meticulously crafted. He did not have the vibrancy that a fourteen or fifteen-year-old child should have.

At first glance, the high priest felt that this youth was too dull. At that time, she did not care much about the development of the Siswell family. She did not think that such a youth would stir up any wild waves.

At that time, she was extremely happy to approve of Fiennes becoming the successor of the Siswell family.

As the days passed, the high priest looked at Fiennes in a new light. By the time she met Fiennes for the second time, it was already a year later.

It was at a festival banquet held by a noble family. It was rare for her to attend an event, but she happened to bump into Fiennes there.

At that time, Fiennes was no longer as gloomy and taciturn as before. Instead, he had become extremely talkative. Five or six young noble men and women surrounded him, as if Fiennes was the center of light.

At this time, the high priest realized that Fiennes was somewhat extraordinary. After all, the nobles were the most prejudiced, and they looked down on a child born from a maid. Even if he was promoted to the next heir, they would still be talking behind his back.

However, the high priest saw that those nobles looked at Fiennes with a look of personal worship. The expressions on their faces and the subconscious movements of their bodies were all showing respect to Fiennes.

At that time, the high priest thought that Fiennes was a talented person with long sleeves and a graceful dance. She did not expect that he would have such great ambitions!

He even dared to send someone to ambush her and imprison her without any fear!

...

When Fiennes heard that the high priest actually dared to call him a lowly maid-born commoner and even dragged out his long-dead mother, his originally indifferent face became extremely gloomy!

He looked at the high priest darkly. It was obvious that a storm was brewing on his face!

“You’re just a prisoner, and you still dare to talk about me? What a joke!”

For so many years, other than Fiennes being ridiculed when he was first established as a member of the Siswell family, after half a year, no one dared to insult him like this!

Who didn’t know that the next head of the Siswell family was a gentle and elegant young man?

Who would laugh at him for not having any manners?!

Even if they did, they would already be dead meat!

The high priest knew that she had poked Fiennes’ sore spot. She snorted coldly. Although she was now under the control of others, her expression was still that of the almighty high priest!

“What’s there to laugh about?! Fiennes, even if you take control of the entire God’s Palace in the future, it will still be the same. You are merely the son of a lowly and third-rate servant girl. In your bones, you already have half of a lowly bloodline!”

The high priest’s voice drifted to his ears. Although the tone was extremely pleasant, Fiennes felt as if his entire body was ignited by a ball of fire, as if he was about to explode!

Fiennes had always disliked violence against women. However, upon hearing these words, he mercilessly kicked the high priest!

That kick directly landed on the high priest’s weak abdomen!

The high priest cried out in pain. Her originally ugly face was now as white as snow!

Seeing that still beautiful face, Fiennes curled the corners of her lips coldly, and a disdainful sneer appeared on her thin lips.

“High Priest, do you really think you are the high and mighty High Priest of the past? You are really naive! This feeling of being a prisoner of someone else is not good, right?”

Because of the unexpected kick just now, the high priest’s face was dripping with sweat. She bent down in pain and did not have the time to argue with Fiennes.

However, Fiennes was not wrong at all. The feeling of being controlled by someone else was indeed terrible!

Fiennes obviously did not like the high priest’s attitude of ignoring him. He suddenly reached out his hand and grabbed the high priest’s chin again!

The high priest had no choice but to look up at him.

The handsome and young man lowered his head. His other hand, which was empty, almost caressed the high priest’s wrinkle-free face with a gentle gesture.

“High Priest, speaking of which, you are indeed quite good-looking. Even though you are even older than my father, this face of yours is really flawless...”

The high priest had probably never heard such a horrifying compliment in her entire life!

Fiennes’ fingers were as long as jade, but when they caressed her face, the high priest only felt cold sweat all over her body.

It was as if a venomous snake was spitting out its tongue, and it wanted to touch her face with that tongue!

No matter what, the High Priest was a woman. At this moment, she finally felt a threat that she had never felt before in the first half of her life.

“What are you doing?!”

The high priest looked at Fiennes warily. The disgust on her face was obvious.

As far as she knew, although Fiennes appeared to be very promiscuous on the surface, he maintained an unclear relationship with many noble ladies. It seemed like they were close, but there was distance.

However, Fiennes was actually not a person who was addicted to women.

The high priest was still clear about this.

Moreover, there was not even a hint of lust in Fiennes’ eyes.

“My dear High Priest, why are you looking at me like that? Do you think I’m going to do something to you? Heh, you’re older than my father. No matter how much I like you, I won’t fall for you!”

The high priest heaved a sigh of relief.

However, what Fiennes said next shattered the high priest’s remaining fantasy.

“Don’t you dislike people with low status the most? Tell me, how about I find a bunch of beggars from the slums or some disgusting death row criminals to serve you well and let you give birth to a lowly child for them?”
