Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy novel Chapter 2877

Chapter 2877

“What do you mean?” Steven widened his eyes in shock at this.

His voice began to tremble as he tightened his grip on his phone. “What are you talking about, Denise? Did something bad happen?”

An expression of fear, one that rarely made an appearance, crossed Steven’s face as he repeated, “What happened, Denise?”

Denise began to chuckle, and the sound of her laughter felt eerily loud against the background.

“Steven, I’ll never get out of this alive.” There was a hint of despair in her scratchy voice. “Father and Mother left me here for dead. They handed me over to that pervert Mr. Hoffman, and he’s the sickest person I’ve ever met.”

She let out a bitter smile. “I know you were trying to stall Father and Mother so that someone would be able to rescue me. I know you never once gave up on me, but…”
