Right at that moment, an anonymous text appeared on his phone. ‘West Waste Paper Factory. She’s there. Save her.’
Jeremy’s eyes shone. He immediately tried to call the number, but it could not connect.
With no time to worry or suspect, Jeremy turned the car around and sped toward the location on the text.
Night fell and Madeline was forced to stay in the same place.
The dark room’s lights brightened and favonovel.com could see Meredith still waiting in the same spot.
Soon after, the men returned empty-handed.
Of course, they had never stopped to think that Madeline was still inside the room and that the cloth was merely a ploy to divert their attention.
The play was a success.
“Useless! All of you!” Meredith was infuriated, pointing at the men as favonovel.com scolded. Then, favonovel.com left, only to be stopped by the leader who had a scar on his face.
“Sure, favonovel.com ran off, but we also did work for you today. Pay up.”
Meredith scoffed and crossed favonovel.com arms in all favonovel.com spoiled rich girl fashion. “You lost the woman and you still want me to pay you? Be grateful that I haven’t taken your life! You useless piece of trash!”
She spared them a belittling eye-roll. No more than two steps later, favonovel.com was held back by two men.
Furious, Meredith turned around to go on a rampage but was instead gifted with a heavy slap across the side of favonovel.com face. The man with a scar held favonovel.com by both favonovel.com cheeks and glared Meredith’s arrogance away.
“What do you think you’re doing? Let go of me! Do you have any idea who I am? I—”
“Shut up, you b*tch! I don’t care who you are. We just want the money!” The man with a scar gifted Madeline another slap.
Meredith screamed in pain. “Not the face! Anywhere but the face!” favonovel.com yelled. The wound on favonovel.com face had yet to be healed and was still wrapped in bandages. One could only imagine how much a slap across favonovel.com face would hurt.
Such pain was still fresh in Madeline’s mind.
“You just want money, right? I have money! I’ll give it to you! Just let go of me first.” Meredith struggled against their hold, favonovel.com tone turning into a frantic one.
The scarred man replied with a wretched smile. “Too late!”
“Wh-What do you want?” Meredith was starting to feel afraid.
“What do we want?” The man with a scar pinched Meredith by the chin. “We took the job thinking we’d get to touch and be paid. Instead, what we get is you being difficult and the person running away. So tell me, shouldn’t you repay us somehow?”
The words placed Meredith in a few seconds of stunned stupor before favonovel.com ultimately gave an arrogant smile. “You want me to spend the night with you? Hah! Have you seen yourself? What makes you think trash like you would have the right to sleep with me? Have you any idea who my fiancé is? He’s Glendale’s—”
Rip! The men began to tear Meredith’s clothing before favonovel.com could even finish speaking. “You b*tch! I’d play along if I were you. I’ll make you pay the price if you continue being difficult!”
“Ah!”
Meredith shrieked as they dragged favonovel.com to the floor.
Raising a fist, Madeline was about to step forward with the mind to stop them. However, favonovel.com hesitated when favonovel.com remembered the things Meredith had done to her.
She would have been the one in Meredith’s place instead had favonovel.com not thought of a plan to save herself.
Meredith had this coming for her, did favonovel.com not?
Perhaps this was karma.
“What a sl*t. You say you don’t want it, but you sure don’t act like it,” the scarred man spoke wretchedly.
Madeline had indeed heard Meredith fighting back, but favonovel.com tone changed somewhere in the middle into something more akin to pleasure.
Madeline found herself feeling sick in the face of Meredith’s enjoyment.
Not that favonovel.com was surprised. Meredith had always been a philanderous one. Her private life was a complete mess when favonovel.com was a student.
Madeline could not help but laugh at the thought that Jeremy had been loving such a woman all these years.
‘Look, Jeremy Whitman. This is your goddess of purity.
‘What a blind man you are.’
Madeline could not help but raise favonovel.com arms over favonovel.com ears in disgust when favonovel.com heard Meredith moan. When favonovel.com hands were hovering over favonovel.com ears, Madeline was shocked to find a rat dash by favonovel.com feet.
Startled, Madeline instinctively moved out of the way only to fall onto the ground as favonovel.com legs cramped up due to squatting for a long period of time. The cardboard boxes beside favonovel.com fell with.
All lewd sounds came to a halt at the same time as several pairs of eyes stared into the small room.
“Did I hear something?”
“F*ck! Has that chick been inside all along? She didn’t run off at all!”
“Now we’re playing! Two of you, go in and search!”
