Jessica clearly felt that something bad was going on.
The car drove farther and farther away from the center and finally arrived at an orchard.
There happened to be a wholesale warehouse for fruits.
But now no one was there now. So the warehouse had been abandoned there.
The driver pulled Jessica out of the car and dragged her into the abandoned warehouse.
Then he found a rope to tie Jessica's hands and feet casually. He just wanted to slightly limit her freedom of action.
Anyway, she had just given birth to a child and was very weak. She could not run far in the wilderness.
The driver was about to make a phone call when he suddenly felt a pain in his abdomen.
Maybe he ate something bad before.
He put Jessica there and went out to poo.
Jessica wanted to find something to help her remove the rope from her feet. She happened to see something as if an iron bar. Then she slowly moved over to it.
She stretched her legs to the iron bar and rubbed the rope against it.
She was tired and nervous.
She didn't know when the driver would suddenly come over.
Her legs were as if a machine, which had been mechanically moving back and forth on the iron bar.
Just as Jessica was sweating and moving vigorously, she suddenly heard the sound from outside.
Her heart almost jumped out of her throat.
She thought, 'This time it is really over.'
Since someone had paid for a man to kill her.
It was her fate.
It didn't matter to her. Her Grandma had already passed away. But she still had a child who would be alone if she died.
Why should her child suffer the pain of her death?
Jessica prayed in her heart that if she died this time, her child would be happy in the orphanage in the future.
Perhaps her child was not financially rich. It would be good for her child to leave those vulgar disputes.
Jessica held her breath, waiting for the people outside to come in.
She first saw a woman's foot at the door. Then she saw a familiar face.
It was Lannan, the nurse who used to take care of her grandma.
Jessica was overjoyed. "Lannan."
Little followed the voice and saw Jessica tied up and sitting behind the door.
Jessica's face was sweating all over. She let out a soft shush.
Lannan understood that this was a dangerous place and covered her mouth.
She came in such a hurry that there was nothing sharp in her hand. She could only help Jessica untie the rope on her feet with her bare hands.
Although the rope was thick, the knots the driver tied were not firm. Lannan easily untied it.
She helped Jessica up and was about to take her out when she heard a man's voice from outside.
Both of them were stunned, afraid that the driver had called someone else over.
