Filed to story: My Husband Regrets Divorcing Me (Audrey & Cornell)
“I’ve been kidnapped. They’re demanding money. Can you bring the ransom right away…”
“Audrey,” Cornell cut her off, his voice tinged with irritation.
“Enough with these childish games. I’m done playing along.”
His words felt like a freefall into an abyss from which there was no return.
Audrey didn’t expect that Cornell’s first reaction was to think that she was making a fuss.
She felt her heart was being stabbed by countless daggers. It was so painful that she could hardly breathe.
But she had no time to pity herself at this moment. Her priority was the safety of her baby. The stick Tessa was holding was still pressed against her belly. She must make Cornell believe her.
Tears streamed down her face and mixed with the blood at the corners of her lips. She said hoarsely, “Cornell, I am not lying to you. I was really kidnapped.”
Perhaps the sadness in Audrey’s voice moved Cornell. He glanced at the bag of money sent in by the remote-controlled car and said in a gentle tone, “Be good. Don’t make such a joke, okay? I will be back soon…”
“Cornell!” Audrey shouted, interrupting him. Her voice was full of despair.
“I really don’t understand. Why do you always believe whatever Cecilia says, but assuming me to be the one who messes around all the time, huh?”
Audrey’s choked voice sounded very angry. But for Cornell, it was more like she was having an emotional outburst.
The situation on Cornell’s side was urgent. He could still hear Cecilia’s miserable cry from time to time.
So, when he spoke again, his voice became cold.
“Audrey, can you stop please being unreasonable?”
Unreasonable? She was crying for help desperately. Was it just being unreasonable in his eyes? Audrey couldn’t help laughing at herself bitterly.
She thought Cornell was her last hope. But she was too stupid to think that he would rescue her.
She said again, “Cornell, I am pregnant with your child. But in your heart, Cecilia is still more important than us. Her life matters more than ours, right?”
At this moment, Cornell’s patience wore thin. He said coldly, “We’ll talk about it when I return. I’m hanging up.”
Suddenly, Tessa stabbed Audrey’s tummy with a sharp stick.
Thinking of her baby, Audrey was so desperate that she roared madly, “No, don’t hang up! Cornell, don’t hang up the phone! Please… I’m begging you. At least save your…”
But before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by the beeping sound from the other end of the line. Cornell had hung up.
She was about to say “child,” but Cornell didn’t give her a chance.
Audrey felt like the blood all over her body froze. She suddenly felt very cold. Her heart sank to the bottom.
At this moment, her ten years of love for Cornell completely disappeared.
Audrey sneered at herself. She had never been this regretful.
Cornell was her world for the past ten years. She had admired him.
But what did he do in return? He just pushed her to hell.
When Tessa saw the pain on Audrey’s face, she was overjoyed. She thought it was more awesome than beating Audrey
“You see, bitch? You are nothing in Cornell’s eyes. You are just a joke. Ha-ha!”
The tears in Audrey’s eyes almost dried up.
Indeed, she was ridiculous. Instead of being Cornell’s wife, she was just a joke.
At this moment, something warm surged from her lower abdomen. She felt she was bleeding. The panic in her heart brought her back to her senses.
Audrey looked at Tessa with pleading eyes.
“Tessa, please let me go.
If you want money, I can give it to you. Just tell me how much you need. I can give it to you. Just please let me go.”
However, Tessa just raised her head and giggled. After a while, she said, “Do you really think I want your money? No! What I want is to make you scared and desperate. I want you to know how it feels to be abandoned and ruined.”
She pointed at the camera set up in the shabby room and mocked, “Do you have any idea how pitiful you looked just now? It turned out this is how you look after being abandoned by the person you love.”
When Audrey saw the madness in Tessa’s eyes, she realized that Tessa didn’t want money. Tessa wanted her life.
Now that Audrey knew what she was about to face, she stopped begging.
Tessa would definitely not let her go. The more pitiful she was, the less chance she had to survive.
So, she asked calmly, “Tessa, do you really think no one will know about this? Have you thought about the consequences? You’d better give it careful thought now.”
Tessa bent down and patted Audrey’s cheek. She sneered, “Don’t worry about me. Focus on the next exciting part because you are the star of it. Enjoy yourself.”
After saying this, she stood up, looked at the two hooligans, and said, “This woman is very cunning. You see? She just claimed that her husband would definitely pay the ransom. But what happened? She lied. Her husband abandoned her, so she has no values at all. Don’t be fooled by her. Just do your job, and don’t believe any of her nonsense. Do you understand?”
The two hooligans nodded obediently.
Then, one of them quickly unbuckled his belt.
A trace of disgust flashed through Tessa’s eyes. She really wanted to watch Audrey being bullied by these hooligans.
But she had enough of it. Every time she saw the bodies of naked men, she couldn’t help feeling sick.
“You guys have fun. But do as I told you and make it quick.”
After saying this, Tessa pushed the door open to wait outside. She didn’t go far. Instead, she stood by the door and listened carefully.
The tall and thin hooligan threw the belt he took off at Audrey.
This was part of Tessa’s instruction. She told them to beat Audrey hard with the belt first before they raped her.
Fortunately, Audrey was tied to a chair. So, most of the whips hit the chair. But her arms were still hit by the belt.
She endured the sharp pain and bit her lips hard to keep herself sober while racking her brain. She had to think of a way to save herself.
The other hooligan thought the process was too lengthy. He got so impatient that he pushed the tall and thin hooligan away and said, “Hurry! I can’t wait anymore.”
Although Audrey was beaten, and her face was covered with blood, she still looked tender and fresh in the hooligan’s eyes.
Soon, the two hooligans had a tacit understanding. They decided to fuck her first.
As the two hooligans approached Audrey step by step, Audrey was uneasy to see their obscene and twisted faces.
Her hands and feet were tied, so she had no way to avoid them.
For the first time in her life, she felt so desperate.
But she forced herself to calm down.
At this moment, no one else could protect her baby but herself. She couldn’t give up.
The next second, Audrey said gently, “Guys, don’t you think it’s a little inconvenient for you that I am tied up? Why don’t you untie me? Then, I can serve you better.”
The two hooligans paused and thought for a while. They realized she was right. Indeed, it was inconvenient for them to fuck her when her legs were tightly tied to the chair.
The tall and thin hooligan quickly untied the rope around Audrey’s hands and feet. He warned, “Don’t play tricks with us. Otherwise, we will kill you.”
“Yes… I will be good…”
Audrey put on a frightened look and nodded timidly.
After untying the rope, the tall and thin hooligan pulled Audrey’s hair, pointed at the stack of messy straws in the corner, and ordered, “Go and lie there.”
Audrey cried out in pain and said fearfully, “Please, be gentle with me. I will do whatever you want.”
The two hooligans had never been treated like this, especially by a woman. Their vanity instantly rose. They let go of her hands and threw her at the stack of straws.
Audrey’s head hit the floor heavily. She felt like her brain buzzed because of so much pain.
She got up awkwardly, knelt on the floor, lowered her head, and fumbled in the stack. Finally, she found the stick dropped by Tessa just now.
The laughter of the two hooligans got louder and louder in her ears.
At this moment, Audrey raised the stick and hit the tall and thin hooligan with all her strength.
A loud thud sounded in the room.
The tall and thin hooligan’s head was broken, and blood oozed out of the wound.
