LOVE COMING FROM THE LEAST EXPECTED - Season 2 Episode 73

It wouldn’t be necessary for the man to threaten me as it would be impossible to break free. There was nothing that could be made use of to escape the spacious basement.

The desolate environment was so eerie I could hear my heart racing.

I started cursing Crystal for bringing upon my misfortune by exposing the messed-up relationship to the public, including the kidnappers.

A short while later, I could barely pull myself together anymore because the pent-up fatigue had caught up to me.

The kidnappers never returned after their departure, leaving me starving in the dark. My fear grew stronger as my stomach started growling.

Where are you, Christopher? Can you come over yet? You’re the only one I can rely on! You have to save me! As long as you save me, I’ll promise you whatever you have in mind!

It was a tormenting experience to be confined in a pitch-black room. When someone opened the door again, it felt as though an eternity had passed.

I could barely open my eyes because of the strong shaft of light. While closing my eyes to get used to the illuminated environment, I heard a woman’s voice.

As it was a familiar voice, I widened my eyes in disbelief and looked in the direction of the entrance.

Crystal was being dragged into the basement by a few buff-looking men. When they placed the equally startled woman next to me, she yelled, “Yvonne, are you the mastermind behind this? I will never succumb to you!”

I rolled my eyes in silence because I no longer had the energy to pick a fight with the shrieking woman next to me.

“Idiot!” I snorted at her in return and turned around, staring elsewhere to avoid engaging in a conversation with Crystal.

“Are you reprimanding me? Yvonne, you’re such a jinx! Why the heck have you persuaded them to abduct me? What exactly are you up to? I’m telling you Lyle will never return to you even if I’m dead!”

If others were around, they would be shocked by Crystal’s true color as she had always put on a considerate and adorable front when she showed up in the public.

Unable to withstand her remarks anymore, I rebuked, “Can you stop accusing me of something I have never done? Do you really think I’m as vicious as you are?”

Infuriated by my remark, she tried to kick me in return. “You know what? I’ll get you back for today’s incident! Lyle won’t leave me alone, but I’m afraid that’s not the case for you!”

Hello? I’m not waiting for that jerk, okay? I’m waiting for my one and only to rush to my rescue!

With that being said, he isn’t in Avenport at the moment! Is he going to return to my corpse in a few days?

Irked, I yelled at her in return, “Alright, I’m well aware you’re having an affair with him. Why don’t you keep that to yourself and stop bringing it up?”

Suddenly, a man approached us and slapped me in the face. I was frustrated by the fact that he decided to take things out on me when Crystal had been yelling as well.

“Get in touch with Lyle and tell him his wife and mistress has been abducted! If he wants them back safe and sound, get him to prepare a billion! Warn him not to get in touch with the cops! Otherwise, we’ll allow him to make it to the headline with his beloved women’s death!”

A man reached for his phone and took photos of Crystal and me. He then proceeded to get in touch with Lyle and instructed him to meet them in the basement at five o’clock in the morning.

It turned out it had been twenty-four hours since I was abducted. That must be the reason my entire body had been aching since a few hours ago.

“Lyle will definitely rush to my rescue! Do you think you get to salvage your marriage by playing the victim in front of him? No way!” Crystal yelled at me with a provocative look.

I had no intention to carry on with the fight Crystal started because she wouldn’t stop mentioning Lyle when Christopher was the only one I cared about. It would be such a shame if I couldn’t get to meet Christopher for one last time before my death.

Lyle soon showed up with the demanded sum, but the kidnappers refused to set us free. They announced, “A billion for one of them!”
