The woman looked coldly atand was clearly upset now. "You'd better behave yourself, Ms. Lane. That's how
you can suffer less."
| shook my head and cowered in a corner, saying with a trembling voice, "If you letgo, then TH give you
whatever amount of money you want."
The woman snickered, looking atwith a face full o f mockery as she said, "Looks like you don't have an
inkling of what's going on here. Do you think we'd make you our target if we were after money? There's n o
shortage of rich people among those women before you and they all said the sthing as you, but they
eventually went to the place they were supposed to go. So, do you think we're doing this just for money?"

| felt excruciating pain in my arms and could not help but shriek.
After my head was slammed into the wall countless times, the woman tossedto the floor and kicked m e in
the abdomen continuously, showing no mercy.
She stopped beatingwhen | stopped screaming.
Later, | heard the sound of the door opening. After the woman went out, the two men who stayed behind lifted
My body was in so much pain that | could not even move a muscle and simply allowed them to carryinto a
car.
When the car engine started, my eyes were blindfolded.

me.

The girl sitting besidewas crying incessantly. One of the girls was annoyed by her crying and snapped." Stop
crying, will you? Think of a way."
That girl looked to be about 20 years old. Judging from her attire and her noble aura, | figured she cfrom a
well-off family.
"What other ways do we have?" one of the girls asked while crying.

toward the city when we get out?" suggested the girl who seemed to cfrom a well-off family.
