Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 1506

Ian stepped closer, only to notice a red light blinking on the anklet strapped to Cynthia's leg.

He tugged at the device, and a man's voice emerged from within.

"Cynthia, you trying to make a run for it again?"

"Why the urge to flee, why so disobedient?"

"Do you really want me to break your legs?"

The man's voice, despite its softness, sent chills down Ian's spine.

Cynthia, now deaf to the world, seemed to sense the anklet's alarm.

She desperately tried to rip the device off her ankle to no avail.

"Fuck off!"

"Fuck off!"

Her fingernails dug into her flesh, but the anklet wouldn't budge, the man's voice still echoing from it.

"Gone blind, gone deaf, do I need to render you mute too?"

"Get any closer to that door, and you'll get zapped again. Just stay put, stop struggling."

That's when Ian realized this basement was no ordinary place.

It wasn't just blocking external signals. It was rigged with various switches.

Whenever Cynthia got too close to the exit, it would shock her.

The two goons who had been guarding Cynthia had been hit by this very current.

But Cynthia, likely having attempted escape multiple times, had grown accustomed to the shocks.

The real trouble now was that Ian couldn't communicate with her.

She couldn't hear or see, instinctively fearing anyone who tried to take her away was a threat.

Worst of all, Ian was running out of time.

His face grew grim as he turned to his associates and asked, "Can't we get that thing off her ankle?"
