Chapter 109

Daniel clicked his tongue and shook his head at his friend. “T`have no idea why you’re so scared. She’s

just a defenseless girl. What can she do to us? You’re being paranoid.”

Elspeth said nothing, so her kidnappers kept a lookout in the abandoned warehouse and chatted the

time away. Yet, Ophelia didn’t show up. Eventually, the kidnappers got worried.

“Do you think she’s in trouble? It’s getting late.”

“Shut it. Just mind your own business.”

The kidnappers cursed under their breaths. We’re still not paid. If she goes back on her word, then we’d

have done all this for nothing. Just then, someone knocked on the door. Three long knocks and two short

ones. Oh, that’s the code. Delightfully, the kidnappers opened the door.

Ophelia carefully darted into the warehouse and looked inside, especially Elspeth, who looked worse for

wear. Even though she was covered in a mask and sunglasses, there was no mistaking the sneer behind

her disguise. “So, how does it feel, Elspeth?”

Elspeth wasn’t scared. She stared at the listless Ophelia and laughed. “It’s been a while, but you seem

like you’ve aged ten years. What’s with the kidnapping? Callum’s going to hate you for this, you know?”

“Do I look like I care what he thinks, Elspeth? I’m over it. He doesn’t love me. He’d rather give all his love

to you. I know that, but I just can’t let it go. I loved him first and I loved him more than you do, but why did

he choose you?” She spoke in an almost hysterical tone. Obviously, she was not in the best state of

mind.

Elspeth wouldn’t talk to her in most cases, but this was a special circumstance. She must buy some time

for her reinforcement. “You’re mad, Ophelia.”

“No, no, no. You’re mad. Not me.” Ophelia approached Elspeth and crouched down. When she noticed

her captive was not tied up at all, she hissed, “Why isn’t she tied up? She could’ve run away!”.

Daniel was a little shaken seeing the look in Ophelia’s eyes. She looks so innocent, but she’s evil. “She’s

just a gal. Not like she can do anything, so…”

If looks could kill, Daniel would have died. Ophelia growled, “Tie her up. She’s a crafty b*tch. You let her

loose and she’ll trip you up.”

Emerson quickly found a used rope in the garage and wiped the grime off with his shirt, then he tied

Ophelia stared at her captive and patted her cheeks. “How does it feel? I bet it feels nasty. So, ready to

grovel and beg for mercy?”

“It’s not too late to back out, Ophelia.”

Her warning gained her nothing but one hard slap on the face “Do not try to order me̱ around. None of

this would have happened if not for you. I’m ruined now, but it’s fine. It’s fine as long as I can drag you

down to hell with me!” She roared in laughter. From the moment she kidnapped Elspeth, she knew she

couldn’t come out of this ordeal alive.

Well, so much for your kindness. Blood trickled down Elspeth’s lips, but she kept her silence. Don’t want

to make this crazy b*tch mad. Her hands were tied behind her back, and now she was cutting through

the rope furtively using her ring.

“Proud, arrogant Elspeth. You’re always looking down on everyone, but why aren’t you putting on your

tough girl cap now? Trying to get my sympathy?” Ophelia yanked her hair up and dragged her over.

“You’re disgusting. You deserve this. Someone like you shouldn’t even exist.”

Sh’t. She’s gonna pull my scalp off at this rate. The pain was making Elspeth tear up. “Ophelia, you can

still

“Shut it. Your voice is annoying. Makes me.. murderous.” She whipped out a dagger from her pocket and

swung it around. “Poison dagger. One little cut, and poof, you’re dead. Want

She never finished that sentence. Someone slammed the warehouse’s door down and in came Blake.

Ophelia was surprised, wondering why he had come.

“Ophelia?” The moment Blake got the SOS, he set aside all work and drove all the way here. Never did

he expect Ophelia to be the mastermind. She’s usually so nice.

All her niceties were nothing but a facade that she had no patience to keep up with anymore. “Surprised

to see me?” Impatiently and icily, she snapped, “This is the real me.”

Blake looked around. Okay, two thugs who probably know a bit of combat, and Ophelia has a knife. If I

rush in, she might hurt Elspeth. He found himself in a stalemate.

For some reason, Elspeth was a little disappointed that it was Blake and not a certain someone else. Oh

my god, Blake. You’re going to be nothing but dead weight. “You should leave, Blake. It’s dangerous

here.”

“Not as dangerous as you being kidnapped,” answered Blake seriously as he stared at her face.

“I don’t have time for this bickering.” Ophelia hunkered down and waved the knife in front of Elspeth.

“You know, I’ve always wondered something. Why do men fall for you left, right, and center? Maybe it’s

your looks, Wouldn’t it be fun if, say, I… destroyed your face? Let’s see if they will still love you then.”

Ophelia brought the poison dagger closer to Elspeth’s face. Its edge was glinting menacingly, and then

Ophelia held the dagger high up in the air, ready to strike a blow at Elspeth. Just then, Blake charged

ahead and slammed his foot into Ophelia’s back. The impact sent her staggering forward.

With Ophelia caught by surprise, Elspeth finally had the chance to break free, and break free she did.

The rope had been cut off a while ago, and now she stood up and shook the broken rope off.

“Our employer is hurt! Quick, get that woman!”

The thugs panicked. Their quarry was trying to run so they gave chase, attempting to surround her.

Blake was a civilian with no combat experience while Elspeth was weakened, so they couldn’t fend off

these thugs. It didn’t take long for them to fall into a disadvantageous situation.

Elspeth barely had any strength, so Blake stood over her, taking all the beatings. The thugs didn’t hold

back, and before long, Blake felt everything around him spin. He seemed like he was going to faint any

moment.
