The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 1161

In the past, she came here to investigate a crime.

This place was almost beyond the suburbs, and if they kept going further, there wouldn’t be any other neighborhoods around.

Instead of driving further, the car made a few turns before finally reaching the entrance of a farmhouse.

The farmhouse was rundown, and it seemed like it hadn’t been occupied for a very long time now.

Once the car stopped, Lola still had her eyes shut.

As soon as the car stopped, Lola felt both people sitting next to her had gone down the car. Sneaking a quick peek, the people sitting at the driver and front passenger seat were still in the car.

The one sitting in the front passenger seat even turned around to check on her.

Fortunately, Lola was very experienced, so she did look as if she was really unconscious.

In the end, the two men carried her out from the car, all the way to the rundown farmhouse.

The house was so rundown to the extent that the glass on the windows were broken, and even the door was unable to be shut tight.

Carrying Lola all the way into the house, the two men placed her on a chair and tied her up with ropes.

Due to the position of her fake belly, the rope around her waist wasn’t fastened too tightly.

With her head hung down, Lola continued to pretend to be unconscious.

The moment they had tied her up, they stood guard over her.

In the midst of conversation, one of them suggested, “Call them up and inform them that everything is going according to plan. Don’t forget to ask them when they’ll be here.”

“Maybe later. They’re probably negotiating with the Constance Family at this moment,” replied another person.

Hearing that, the first person said again, “This house really smells, and I can’t stand it. Let’s just wait outside.”

As soon as he finished, one by one, four of them left the house and waited outside.

Obviously, they turned her down.

Without giving up, Lola begged again, “Can you just loosen the rope a little? Look at me! How can I possibly run away in this state?”

From the looks of it, the four men didn’t seem professional because they failed to notice that Lola wasn’t Sophia. On top of that, they were gullible to give in to her plea, loosening the rope around her wrist.

Frowning, one of them warned, “Not too loose. Better to be safe than sorry.”

With that, the person who was loosening the rope said, “You heard what they said—she must be unharmed. We have to make sure nothing happens to her. Besides, just look at her baby bump. Even if she tries to run away, any one of us here can easily get her back.”

Just like that, the other three didn’t utter anymore words.

Without untying her completely, Lola felt the rope around her wrist loosened a little.

After staying around a little while longer, all four of them left the room again, as they couldn’t stand the stench.

Seizing the chance, Lola managed to untie herself instantly. Once the coast was clear, she flipped her evening dress and drew the fake belly slightly away from her, taking the phone that was stuck on her tummy.
