It wouldn’t be necessary for the man to threaten me as it would be impossible to break free. There was nothing that could be made use of to escape the spacious basement.
The desolate environment was so eerie I could hear my heart racing.
I started cursing Crystal for bringing upon my misfortune by exposing the messed-up relationship to the public, including the kidnappers.
A short while later, I could barely pull myself together anymore because the pent-up fatigue had caught up to me.
The kidnappers never returned after their departure, leaving me starving in the dark. My fear grew stronger as my stomach started growling.
Where are you, Christopher? Can you come over yet? You’re the only one I can rely on! You have to save me! As long as you save me, I’ll promise you whatever you have in mind!
It was a tormenting experience to be confined in a pitch-black room. When someone opened the door again, it felt as though an eternity had passed.
I could barely open my eyes because of the strong shaft of light. While closing my eyes to get used to the illuminated environment, I heard a woman’s voice.
As it was a familiar voice, I widened my eyes in disbelief and looked in the direction of the entrance.
Crystal was being dragged into the basement by a few buff-looking men. When they placed the equally startled woman next to me, she yelled, “Yvonne, are you the mastermind behind this? I will never succumb to you!”
I rolled my eyes in silence because I no longer had the energy to pick a fight with the shrieking woman next to me.
“Idiot!” I snorted at her in return and turned around, staring elsewhere to avoid engaging in a conversation with Crystal.
“Are you reprimanding me? Yvonne, you’re such a jinx! Why the heck have you persuaded them to abduct me? What exactly are you up to? I’m telling you Lyle will never return to you even if I’m dead!”
