Chapter 353
Damn it!!
She had to run!
Aveline couldn’t afford to hesitate any longer and took off running!
There was another convenience store open not far ahead; she could rush in and call the police there!
Just then, two girls rounded the corner ahead.
Aveline’s eyes lit up, and she immediately ran over to link arms with them, smiling brightly. “Where have you been? I’ve been waiting for you so long.”
The two girls looked at her in surprise. “You…”
Aveline quickly winked at them and whispered, “Someone is following me. Can you help me, please?”
The girls‘ expressions turned tense.
One girl said, “Why were you dawdling? We had to do our makeup before leaving!”
The other girl added, “Let’s go to that food street; there are lots of delicious food there.”
Aveline nodded eagerly. “Sure, sounds great.”
They chatted like friends as they walked.
At the corner, Aveline glanced back and saw that the man hadn’t followed.
She breathed a huge sigh of relief.
“Thank you so much,” she said to the girls.
One of them replied, “Don’t mention it. Let’s keep moving; what if he follows again?”
The other girl nodded. “Yeah, it’s not safe for you to be alone. Why didn’t you call the police?”
Aveline smiled bitterly. “My phone died.”
The two girls linked arms with her again, leading her down a street.
But as they walked, Aveline felt something was off.
Why was it getting more and more deserted?
She asked directly. “Where are we going?”
One girl replied, “This way leads to the food street. It’s more crowded there, so you’ll be safer.”
Her companion nodded. “Yeah, come on,”
Cold sweat broke out on Aveline’s palms.
Suddenly, she clutched her stomach and said, “I… I have a terrible stomachache.”

The two girls exchanged a glance, then dragged her deeper into the alley.
“There’s a restroom over there.”
Aveline’s face turned pale!
They had figured out her thoughts!
These two were in cahoots with that man!
But realizing this was too late, as the man had somehow appeared at the other end of the alley, his eyes cold and menacing.
Aveline stood still, not moving.
The two girls held onto her arms, preventing her escape.
Aveline’s voice was dry and hoarse with tension as she bitterly asked, “Who are you people? Why are you kidnapping me?”
One of the girls responded, “Kidnapping? What kidnapping?”
Aveline paused, if not kidnapping, then was it human trafficking?
