He said, “Don’t talk nonsense. We two have an agreement.”
Beata felt it even more strange. What kind of agreement it was that they needed to sleep in separate rooms.
This was not a good thing for Beata.
They slept in separate rooms, always telling her to associate with bad things.
Could it be that there was a problem with their relationship?
Beata looked at River in horror, with a worried look on her face.
When River saw her expression, he was speechless.
Raising his hand to pat Beata on the head, River said, “Put away your messy thoughts. There is no problem between me and your sister-in-law.”
Beata didn’t dare to say anything more, and was going to ask her dear sister-in-law later.
She hasn’t finished writing the planning yet, but the two of them had a relationship problem?
Then she will be sad to death.
River didn’t bother with Beata anymore. Anyway, this girl couldn’t do anything.
Beata ignored River and went directly to Averi.
After confirming that there was no problem with the relationship between Averi and River, Beata felt relieved.
However, she still couldn’t help wondering why Averi stayed back in the guest room.
After all, Beata was a young writer with wild imagination. Thinking of whats he wrote and the voice she heard last night, she understood everything in an instant.
There was no problem with their relationship, but they were so in love, and they couldn’t bear it.
Hayden family.
After Ash knew from Joshua that it was Alina who spread the rumors, Patrick asked someone to tie
Alina here.
Alina had been locked a container for five days. She was originally a spoiled young lady who had never really experienced hardship throughout her life. However, during her last visit to the Hayden family to settle some matters, she was beaten up by Aimee.
It was the first time in her life that she had ever experienced such pain and suffering. The suffering now was nothing compared to what it was back then.
She was cold and hungry again, feeling fearful. She hadn’t dared to close her eyes for five days and nights, feeling like she was about to be tortured to death.
However, apart from someone bringing her water every day, no one paid any attention to her. Even water was only available once a day, and in a small bottle.
On the first day, she shouted and screamed, smashing the water bottle in disbelief that someone would dare to treat her like that.
However, on the second day, third day… Alina gradually realized that the daily bottle of water was only meant to prevent her from dying of thirst, and couldn’t even satisfy her basic need for quenching her thirst.
She smashed the water bottle, so there won’t be any more water.
On the third day, Alina dared not mess around anymore. And she even dared not drink the water all at once.
She only dared to take a sip to moisten her throat when she can’t hold on.
Alina was very scared and also very angry.
She hated Aimee! No matter whether Aimee did it or not, Alina insisted that it was done by her.
That bitch stole the man she loved, and now she was torturing her like this.
She swore that even if she became a ghost, she wouldn’t let Aimee go. But she was very hungry now and had no strength at all. She seemed to be dying.
At that moment, the container was opened and a blinding light shone through, stinging Alina’s eyes.
She instinctively raised her hand to shield herself, but before her eyes could adjust to the sudden burst of bright light, someone grabbed her by the arm and pulled her out.
Alina had no ability to resist at all. Like a rag, she was just dragged out. She was even pushed into a car before she had a chance to see what was going on around her.
When she was caught, she fiercely resisted by shouting and screaming, and even attempted to escape. Now, she looked completely like a helpless victim waiting to be exploited.
The driver in front of her looked at Alina’s behavior and snorted, “Thought she was so tough. Only five days and already acting like this? Pathetic.”
The man on the passenger seat said silently, “What did you expect? Do you want to practice first?
You’re too idle.”
The driver said, “There’s no need to practice with this kind of junk. We haven’t done anything, but she cries and whines about pain. Even my ears hurt.”
In the back seat, Alina listened weakly as her anger burned within her.
That man was just a lousy driver, but dared to complain about her. It was simply outrageous.
However, she really had no strength and can’t even manage to curse.
The driver saw Alina’s expression through the rearview mirror, and he was even more contemptuous.
She had long become a trivial matter, like an ant, yet still put on airs of being a rich lady. She should take a look at whose hands she had fallen into. And it was not even certain whether she’ll come back alive.
Finally, the car arrived at its destination and Alina was lifted out like a little chick. This time, she was taken directly into a dark warehouse. The damn driver just threw her on the ground.
Alina even heard the crack of bone and the pain from her elbow.
Her arm was broken from the fall.
Pain shot through Alina’s arm, making it impossible for her to observe her surroundings.
When she finally calmed down, she realized that she was in a dark and damp warehouse with no one in sight. Suddenly, the lights turned on, blinding Alina and forcing her to cover her eyes with one hand.
As she adjusted to the brightness, she saw Patrick sitting across from her with a cold expression on his face.
Alina’s heart felt like it was being twisted by a knife at the sight of him. She didn’t know what was going to happen next, but one thing was certain: Patrick wouldn’t let her go. And now she knew that he was the one who had kidnapped and locked her up.
At that moment, besides fear, Alina also felt deep hatred towards him. She hated him so much!
Patrick asked bluntly, “Who ordered you to do this?”
Alina lay prostrate on the ground looking miserable and pitiful as if nothing could be done about it. Her gaze never left Patrick’s face as he waited for an answer.
“No one! It was just me!” she said after a long pause.
She knew that revealing who had helped her would not benefit herself in any way. Even if she did tell him everything he wanted to know about those behind-the-scenes people involved in this mess, there would be no mercy from Patrick either way.
Rather than that, it was better to bear it all herself. In this way, maybe someone will come to save her.
Otherwise, even if she gave up the people behind her, she must be retaliated by Patrick.
Alina kept her mouth shut, as if she wouldn’t say anything, no matter what.
Patrick sneered at Alina’s response. Playing games like this wouldn’t work against him anymore. Did she think he had no other ways of dealing with someone like her?
She’d got a good idea.
He signaled Trace over instead of doing anything himself.
Alina knew Trace well. Last time when she was thrown into jail, he made sure that every day inside there became torture for poor Alina. Seeing Trace again filled Alina with more fear than seeing Patrick.
She really feared him!
Trembling on all fours, she couldn’t help but feel terrified as Trace dragged her up off the ground by force despite how scared or helpless or pitifully pathetic she looked right now.
Alina fought as hard as she could. However, to no avail, she was pulled up like this and dragged straight inside.
“Let go of me! Let go of me!” Alina struggled hard, but she was no match for Trace’s strength.
Soon, Trace dragged Alina away.
Patrick stood up from his chair only after Alina’s voice faded away.
With Trace’s methods, it was as easy as pie to get Alina to spill the beans.
Patrick left the warehouse directly.
Inside the warehouse, there were Alina’s desperate screams, one after another, each one more terrifying than the last.
Patrick got into the car and stepped on the gas pedal, driving straight back to the Hayden family.
Camdyn was still asleep, and although his vital signs were good, he had not woken up yet. This had cast a gloomy atmosphere over the entire Hayden family. Even with Aimee and Kelvin around, it still felt incredibly stifling.
The Hayden Family
Patrick walked in and saw Aimee coming out of Camdyn’s room looking exhausted.
He hurried over and hugged Aimee, saying, “You’ve been working hard, babe.”
Aimee shook her head and said, “It’s not too bad. It’s just that grandpa’s condition is a bit strange.”
Camdyn had been unconscious for too long. She and Kelvin had carefully checked all of his indicators to confirm that there were no problems with him.
But unfortunately, Camdyn still hadn’t woken up yet.
This was the first time Aimee had encountered this situation. For a moment, she didn’t know what to do.
Patrick squeezed her shoulders gently and said, “Don’t worry. We’ll find a way.”
At this point, Patrick didn’t know what else he could say to comfort Aimee.
In fact, he was very anxious and scared inside as well. Grandpa was the closest person to him, so he couldn’t accept any accidents happening to him at all.
But if he told Aimee about his feelings now, Patrick felt like it would only add pressure on her.
The last thing he wanted was for Aimee to be under more stress than she already was.
