Ex-husband's Sweet Trap novel Chapter 58

"You mean, you'd sacrifice my woman to capture this syndicate?"

His voice was so cold it seemed to come from a glacier. Chandler nodded his head in silent acquiescence. They had no choice.

"You can try!" Henry left him a cold glare before turning to leave.

Lucas immediately followed him out. "What are you going to do if they really can't save Luz?"

"I'll save her myself."

There was no hesitation in his answer. Lucas was silent for a moment. "If you love her so much, why did you agree to the divorce? Forget it. There are three points of interest now. We can only target one of them, or wait and see if they're going to ask to exchange the women for their men that the police captured."

"We can't wait. I recall that ten years ago, Gefeag Wood had a nuclear energy project that the government forced them to abandon due to environmental issues?"

Henry stared coldly in the direction of Gefeag Wood. It was hard to say if those people would ask for an exchange. Moreover, he could not bear the thought that Luz might not be able to hold on any longer.

"I really hope you two are telepathic."

Lucas sighed and went to prepare for everything that could be used in Gefeag Wood. If he made the wrong choice, he might miss the best time to save the women. He didn't dare to think about the consequences.

......

When Luz woke up again, all she could see was green. Once her mind cleared, she found that they were surrounded by a green forest, and they were locked in an abandoned shipment container.

"Mia, wake up."

Labouriously, she used her shoulder to nudge Mia, who was still unconscious beside her. Her eyes were scanning the surroundings warily. Where had the drug dealers brought them?

Mia opened her eyes groggily. The pain in her neck reminded her of the way she was knocked unconscious.

"Luz, where are we?"

"How would I know?"She had left the country for seven years. The country had developed quickly during the seven years she was gone. Even if nothing had changed, her memories would have faded. 

Mia wanted to move her body, but the rope that bound her restricted her movements. She stared at the dense trees outside. "I think we're in a forest at the south of North City."

However, there were quite a few dense mountain forests in the southern part of North City. It was impossible to determine their exact location.

When both of them were panicking, footsteps came from outside. "B*tches, the food's here."

The man who was injured by Luz threw two bags of bread towards them. His eyes were gleaming with malicious mirth. "Eat like a dog if you're hungry!"

"I should've aimed properly before I shot." Luz mumbled, but the man grabbed her hair. His eyes were fierce.

"Bitch, don't think that I wouldn't dare to kill you."

"How are you going to get your companions back if we're dead?" Mia said hurriedly. The man spat on the floor. "I'll kill you once we're done." He left angrily.

She hadn't eaten anything since last night. In addition, she had been injured, so her energy was almost completely drained. Luz tried to reach out, but she couldn't reach the bread with her hands tied behind her back.

"Would you rather eat from the floor or use your feet?"

A smile appeared on her pale lips. Since they could not escape, the only thing they could do was to eat their fill. At least, they could keep their physical strength, so that they would have the energy to wait for rescue.
