Chapter 263
Olivia woke up, regaining consciousness. She had a splitting headache. In the elevator, someone had covered her nose and mouth with a drugged handkerchief.
The effects of the drug still lingered. Olivia felt weak and sore all over her body.
Her eyes were covered with a thick piece of black cloth. She couldn't see any light at all.
Her wrists and ankles were tightly bound as well. Tied up firmly, she couldn't move.
She was trapped in a narrow space, and she could smell something rotting.
She tried to feel around. She soon realized that she was squeezed tightly, and there wasn't much space for her to move around.
Soon, she figured out where she was. She was in the trunk of a car.
For sreason, she suddenly thought about how Jodie died.
Jodie was strangled to death before getting tossed into the ocean. She was only discovered when her body was distorted from all the swelling.

She must have provoked the mastermind by working at Miller Group. They wanted to end this gprematurely, so they decided to attack her on the day of Ethan's engagement ceremony.
But she didn't want to die yet.
Olivia sensed that there was danger before she left. So, she hid a pocket knife under her clothes.
Fortunately, her body was quite flexible. Olivia bent her body into a semicircle. Then, she felt the inside of her coat with her finger.
She had been trapped in a closed space for a long time. So, her body was drenched in sweat.
The car was going at a steady pace without stopping, so they must be on the expressway right now. This meant that they wouldn't be reaching their destination so soon.
She still had time.
Enduring the pain, she patiently rubbed at her coat with all her might. All her strength was focused on her fingertips.
When she touched the surface of the pocket knife, her heart skipped a beat.
"Found it!" she exclaimed in her mind.
She slowly moved the knife out. Then, she sawed it lightly against the rope.
Olivia didn't dare to make it too obvious. In the direction of her wrists, she sliced through two-thirds of each length of rope.
On the surface, she looked like she was still tightly bound. But if she used enough strength to struggle, she could completely break free.
After dealing with the ropes, she twisted her body so that it looked like a shrimp was being pulled backward. Every tshe sawed the ropes, she had to use up all her strength.
Her vision was dark, and oxygen was running low. Her head was spinning.
Still, Olivia managed to perk up. She refused to waste even a second.
Based on what she knew of the mastermind, they paid attention to detail, and they hid their traces very well. They were also quite cruel.
For example, there was that one tshe went to the mental hospital. She received news of Belle's death right after that.
Belle's body was in such a horrible state that Olivia still couldn't forget about it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSo, that person would never give Ethan a chance to save Olivia.
Olivia feared that when Ethan noticed something, she would already be dead.
Her gaze was stern. She couldn't die. She couldn't let those people go unpunished!
Because of the excessive tugging, the joints in her body kept popping. Enduring the pain, Olivia continued her work.
It was a pitch-black environment, so she was her only rescue.
After driving along for a while, the car finally stopped.
Olivia had hidden the blade early on.
She had a feeling that she could finally meet that person.
No matter how outstanding they were, they would appear right before their enemy died. They would gloat about their victory in their enemy's face.
Someone opened the trunk. A cold wind rushed in, bringing the unique scent of the sea with it.
They were by the sea.
As expected, the mastermind wanted Olivia to die the way Jodie did.
