Chapter 198
“Let go! What are you doing?!” Elyse struggled with all her might.
Be that as it may, someone dragged her into a car. Unfortunately, the car was small and narrow. It was also tightly sealed, making the interior stink to high heaven.
She tried to shout for help, only for her mouth to be forced shut again.
A short while later, a three-wheeled truck carrying many empty chicken coops drove past the front of Elyse’s van.
Her assistant, who was playing on her phone with her head lowered, looked up and showed an expression of disgust. She didn’t even notice that Elyse had been kidnapped.
Elyse had never been transported in a three-wheeled truck in her life, never mind one that transported chicken! She was scared and angry. At the same time, her complexion turned various shades of purple and green as she was cooped up in such a disgusting vehicle.
How could the performance of the three-wheeled truck compare to a van? It shook and swayed violently, causing her to be thrown back and forth. Moreover, the road was uneven and filled with potholes. Combined with the truck’s lack of an impact reduction system, she couldn’t help feeling dizzy every time the truck went over a pothole.
The stench and the shaking made her extremely nauseous. On multiple occasions, the contents of her stomach rose to her mouth. However, her kidnappers had sealed her mouth. She could not spit out the bile in her mouth, and the contents of her stomach had nowhere to go but remain in her mouth. In order to prevent herself from choking to death, she had no choice but to swallow the bile again. This scenario repeated itself over and over again.
Since she was forced to endure various forms of torture repeatedly, the entire journey felt like a trial in hell to her. By the time the three-wheeled truck came to a stop, she was limp and weak. The whites of her eyes showed as she alternated between various states of consciousness and unconsciousness.
In the next moment, her body was carelessly thrown to the ground. The pain was so intense that she regained consciousness and opened her eyes. What entered her vision was the dark interior of a house.
“What are you doing? Let me go!” The arrogance that was practically carved into her body was gone. Elyse was so scared and uncomfortable that she burst into tears.
Her sweat and tears had ruined her perfect makeup, flecks of mascara sticking to her face. She looked like a ghost straight out of a horror movie. Likewise, her hair was messy, and her clothes were filthy.
The three men who brought her here circled around her as though examining cattle. Finally, one of the men reached out and slapped her face lightly. “It is said that idols are gorgeous, but she doesn’t even compare to the village h*g without her makeup.”
The other men laughed and snickered at the statement. The sound of their mocking laughter was rough, harsh, and highly grating to the ears.
She couldn’t help feeling angry and humiliated.
Nevertheless, they seemed to think that she was not humiliated enough and called the village h*g over.
Elyse stared at the village h*g in front of her and nearly fainted from indignation! It was bad enough that the village h*g was old and hideous! She was also mentally unstable!
These damn men! How dare they compare my appearance to this old h*g?
Elyse had always been the most famous woman among men. Certain obsessive nerds even regarded her as a goddess. She had never once suffered such insults and humiliation in her life! She gnashed her teeth in fury, infuriated enough to tear a person apart with her teeth alone!
For some reason, she had the feeling that these men did not kidnap her for money but to thoroughly humiliate and shame her!
“Who sent you here?! Was it Amelie Dillon?” The only person who came to mind was Amelie. The instant she even mentioned the name, the hatred in her heart immediately soared to new heights! “What amount did she pay you? If you bring her here, I’ll pay you double!”
“Who is Amelie Dillon?” one of them inquired.
Likewise, the other two exchanged a glance of confusion.
Elyse was taken aback by their reactions. Is it not Amelie? Impossible! I’m sure she hid her identity so that these people would not recognize her!
With that thought in mind, she swiftly recited Amelie’s address. “Go to this place and capture her.”
“Amelie Dillon! How dare you scheme against me? I’m going to make you wish you were dead!” Unable to suppress the hatred in her heart, she shrieked at the top of her lungs.
As soon as the words left her mouth, she felt a resounding slap landing on her face. The blow came so suddenly that she was struck by surprise. She clutched at her face and looked up instinctively only to see the village h*g’s fierce expression. “Evil woman! How dare you try to harm others! Beat her to death!”
Following those words, two more slaps smacked Elyse harshly across the face. The force of the blow left her cheeks stinging in pain. She tried to stand up and fight back, but the village h*g was as strong as a bull. The woman swiftly and efficiently tied her hands behind her back in a few precise movements!
