Ambush of the Quadruplets novel Chapter 1316

“Daniel…” Doris choked up, “Why are you so foolish? How could you follow me? I’ve brought trouble upon you.”

“How can you still be saying that at a time like this?” Daniel sighed, “How could I just stand by and watch you get kidnapped? What kind of a man would that make me?”

“But now…” Doris sniffled. “I worry you’ll be in danger.”

“It is what it is now,” Daniel said. “Don’t be afraid. You still have me!”

Doris lowered her head and sobbed for a moment, then said, “Thank you.”

“Don’t be so polite with me!” Daniel reassured her with a smile. “Having the opportunity to protect you is something I’ve been hoping for. Unfortunately, I couldn’t protect you properly. If you keep being polite, it’ll make me feel even worse.”

“You’re already injured.” Doris looked at his bloodied forehead with teary eyes. “Does it hurt a lot?”

“It’s not too bad,” Daniel replied. “But right now, our top priority is figuring out how to escape or call for help.

“Is your phone still with you?” Doris asked. “Let’s try calling the police.”

A bitter chuckle escaped Daniel before he said, “Do you think they’re that dumb? They’ve probably taken our phones already.”

“What should we do then?” Doris felt helpless.

“Don’t worry,” Daniel said. “You can try to help me untie the ropes on my hands. Once I’m free, we can. open the window and figure out a way to escape.

“Alright, you turn around,” Doris said. “I can only try to feel my way around.”

“We can’t give up hope with even the slightest chance. Daniel turned around, back to back with Doris.

Doris used both of her hands to feel the ropes on Daniel’s wrists. Unfortunately, her wrists were tightly bound, and she could only use her fingertips. She had to rely on her sense of touch to fumble through it.

Click! The door lock made a sound, and the iron door of the warehouse swung open when Doris found the end of the rope and was about to pull hard.

Doris shivered in fear, and Daniel held his breath.

Creat… The door opened, and a young man entered.

He walked straight to Doris, crouched down, and raised his hand to pat her cheek. “No wonder Mr. Raymond said to bring you here no matter what. You really do have some charm!”
