Chapter 155
When the voice traveled into Stella’s ear, it sounded as if it came from a distance; it was indistinct and surreal.
Stella forced out a thank you and reached out to grab her phone. Just as she stepped forward, her knees gave out. She could no longer stand.
Someone grabbed her by the waist and pulled her into their arms.
Stella heard the warning bells in her head blared, enveloped in a person’s unfamiliar scent. She struggled with all her might, but her limbs had gone weak; her movements seemed feeble as if she were playing around.
Stella was dragged out in the person’s arms. One of the attendants noticed something amiss and asked if they needed help.
Just as Stella was about to call out for help, the hand on her shoulder promptly tightened on her neck. In an instant, she felt a suffocating feeling and could not make a sound.
“It’s alright; she’s my girlfriend. She had too much to drink and is upset with me,” one of them explained.
Then, another person said, “I’m so done with you two. You two had such a huge argument. Now I even have to accompany you to look for her this late at night! Let’s hurry up and leave. I’ve got something to do later!”
go
“Give John and the others a call and tell them we found her. Then, ask them to home.”
When the attendant saw how natural their conversation sounded, they did not ask any more questions. After all, these kinds of situations were way too common at bars.
As soon as the attendant left, one of the men placed a jacket over Stella’s head.
After the two dragged Stella out of the bar, the man with his hand on her neck released his grip. She could finally catch her breath.
“We almost got caught!” one of them spoke just as they exited the bar.
He continued, “This new drug is pretty good; its effect is prompt.”
“Stop wasting time and call a cab.”
“I did; it’ll be here soon. Let me go buy something good first,” the person said as he laughed. sleazily.
“Get me a few of those pills.”
“Understood!”
Hearing the two’s foul conversation, Stella paled. Since she was still very conscious, she could hear their entire conversation.
‘I’m sure I was drugged. It must have been that half glass of lemon water I drank after I took the phone call. They secretly drugged it while I had gone outside. I never expected case examples on crime TV programs to happen to me. It obviously isn’t these two’s first time committing such a crime; they’re really experienced and worked together to cover for each
other. It won’t end well for me if I end up in their hands. I can’t stand by idly!’ she thought.
Stella forcibly bit down on her lip to regain her sense. The pain, mingled with the taste of blood, sobered her up a little.
While the man was on the phone with the cab driver, Stella charged up her strength and bit the man’s arm. The man instantly flung her away in pain.
Stella staggered and fell onto the ground.
However, she could not feel any pain at all. She struggled to get up and quickly stumbled away. “F*ck! You b*tch!”
The man turned red in anger and ran after her. He grabbed her by the hair and dragged her back.
Stella struggled with all she had, and her actions quickly caught the attention of the passersby. The man hugged her waist and smiled apologetically, “Honey, I was wrong. So cut it out, and let’s go home. I’ll listen to everything you say in the future, okay?”
“I don’t know him!”
Stella wanted to shout. However, her voice was as soft as a whisper due to the effects of the drug.
