When Daryl woke up again, her limbs were sore and feeble. She slowly opened her eyes. It was dark around, only the window was a little dim.
"Miss Ye, are you awake?"
A low and hoarse male voice suddenly sounded from behind. Daryl was so scared that her back turned cold. Her body trembled and she could not help but take a deep breath.
"What... What the hell do you want to do?"
Daryl forced herself to calm down. "Do you want money? If you want it, I can give it to you."
"Money?" The man chuckled and said in a hoarse voice, "No, I know Miss Ye is not short of money. Just like Helen, you are always the brightest star on the stage. As long as you open your mouth, countless men will throw a lot of money for you!"
Helen? All of a sudden, it occurred to Daryl that it was a movie she had filmed before she left the entertainment circle. It was a film set in Shanghai. Helen was the heroine and also the famous artist of Broadway. She was surrounded by countless rich men!
As soon as the man finished his words, the incandescent light above his head lit up!
The sudden bright light made Daryl squint uncomfortably. When she opened her eyes again, she saw a man wearing a black cap, which was very low. He stood against the light, and there was a big scar on his face. She couldn't see what he looked like at all.
"Who the hell are you? What do you want to do?"
Daryl swallowed and said in a trembling voice.
"Me? I'm just a fan of Helen."
The man said in a hoarse voice. The needle tubing appeared in the light.
"What do you want to do?"
Seeing the yellow liquid in the syringe, Daryl panicked. She wanted to escape, but her hands were tied and unable to move.
"Trust me, Daryl."
The man seemed to be mentally abnormal and was almost crazy now. He smiled and reached out a hand to touch her smooth face.
The man's big hand was incredibly cold. Daryl only felt that it was like a snake coiled on her body!
His hands gradually wrapped around her neck, and his eyes finally glowed with passion and madness. "Daryl, Helen, trust me, I will protect you for the rest of your life. I will take you to see the night scene of Shanghai, and also take you to visit other beautiful cities!"
What he said was all about the heroine's repentance after she was addicted to drugs in the movie! Did he want to inject drugs into her?
Daryl curled up and kept stepping back. She shouted hysterically, "Don't come over! Help -"
But Daryl's voice couldn't be heard outside the room. What she did was like an ant struggling in the man's eyes! With her back against the cold wall, Daryl finally had no way back!
The narrow and closed space, the dark light, and the crazy man were almost destined to make her have no way to escape. A sense of despair rose in Daryl's heart!
Tears began to fall from the corners of her eyes. At this desperate moment, she closed her eyes. The first person that appeared in her mind was actually Zack. But would he come to save her? Was it too late?
Without the hero in the movie saving the heroine in time, Daryl only felt the cold needle like a snake piercing into her skin! A complete chill poured down from her head, spreading all over her limbs and heart.
The injection didn't last long, but every second she spent was suffering and desperate!
Finally, when the man laughed and pulled out the syringe, Daryl suddenly had the strength to pounce on the man and bit hard at the back of his hand!
