In the Stelgar Sea.A massive cruise ship sailed on the calm sea. Aust sat in a wheelchair on the deck, holding a phone.“What’s the matter, Calvin?”Anthony’s questioning voice soon came from the other end of the phone. “Mr. Aust, did you kidnap anyone else besides Mable Jefferson?”Aust was not surprised that Anthony knew about this and admitted, “Yes. I also captured a woman named Olivia Page. I heard Blair has been looking for this woman for many years. I assume she’s important to him.”Taking one more person important to Blair was having an extra bargaining chip.“Mr. Aust, you should have consulted me before taking action.”Aust sneered, his eyes full of disdain. “That’s not included in the scope of our cooperation.”Over the phone, Anthony took a deep breath and suppressed his anger. “Olivia is one of mine.”Aust raised his brows. “Yours?”“Yes, I placed her around Blair.”He put a lot of thought into this move and had not gotten the most out of it yet. He could not l
If she hung on, Rory should be able to find her soon.Night fell unusually early at sea.Mable was resting with her eyes closed when the door suddenly pushed open from the outside.A man walked in with a stern face.Mable stood up warily. “What do you want?”The man did not waste words and dragged Mable outside.Considering her unborn child, Mable knew there was no point resisting and did not struggle needlessly.The man led her to the deck, forced her to sit on a chair, then secured her limbs tightly.“What do you...”Her mouth was taped up before she could finish speaking.The next moment, two men led another woman over.As they approached, Mable realized that it was Olivia.They captured her, too!Olivia was also tied up in a chair less than ten meters away from her.The night was windy on the sea, and the chilling wind caused Olivia to shiver.Mable clenched her fists, feeling an ominous premonition.Aust’s subordinate pushed him onto the desk, and he watched the sc
Mable was thrown into a dimly lit cabin in the hull of the ship.Five men storm in, stripping their clothes while leering at her.“Don’t come any closer!”Mable continued to retreat, but her hands and feet were bound. She could do nothing to fend them off.The scene was reminiscent of the nightmarish events five years ago...Mable curled up in despair, feeling fear wash over her.She bit her lip until it bled, and the blood seeped from the corners of her mouth and mixed with her tears.At that moment, a loud noise rang out. A man burst into the room and kicked away the men approaching Mable.“D...Dr. Miller, you...”The other men retreated cautiously.Ethan stared at the men darkly. “If you don’t want to die, get lost!”The men exchanged looks and quickly ran out.“Mable!”Ethan immediately crouched down to check Mable’s condition. When he saw the blood on her mouth, he quickly lifted her chin.“Calm down, Mable. You’re okay. Calm down...”She had bit through her tongue,
Liv’s eyes flashed. She did not expect Blair to ask about Mable immediately before he even asked about her wellbeing.Tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at Blair. “Master Blair, it was Mable who kidnapped me.”Blair’s back stiffened. “That’s impossible!”Why would Mable kidnap Liv?With her skills, she would not have to resort to such tactics to harm Liv.Liv cried until she was gasping for breath. “It’s true. She kidnapped me and left me out at sea, saying I should fend for myself... Master Blair, please believe me. I’m not lying...”Blair interrupted her words with a stern face. “Where did they go?”“I-I don’t know...”“Expand the search area!” Blair immediately ordered his men.Liv watched as Blair turned to leave and clenched her hands into fists.The sea was windy, and by 5 p.m., it was already dark.Olivia remembered Anthony’s instructions and felt restless in her room.She went to the innermost cabin to find Blair, but he was absent.Just as she was prepared
Mable was blindfolded and taken to an underground room.Aust’s subordinate made her sit on a chair and securely tied her upper body to the backrest using ropes. Then, he used handcuffs to lock her wrists securely.The black cloth covering her eyes was ripped off, and the glaring light made Mable instinctively close her eyes.“Hehehehe...”Aust’s sinister laugh sounded.Mable adjusted to the light and looked in the direction of the voice.Aust wheeled his chair closer, a smug smile on his face. “I wondered why you look familiar. It’s because we’ve met before.”Mable narrowed her eyes and sneered. “Is that so?”“You don’t remember? That’s fine. I’ll remind you.”Aust paused and revealed a wicked smile. “Five years ago, in Santaviz...”Mable’s eyes widened, and she instantly paled.“Oh, you remember?”“I-It’s you...”Aust raised his chin. “Yes, it was me who ordered the attack on the hospital.“It was also me who ordered them to capture you!”Back then, they had captured he
Mable could not control herself. Her body convulsed as excruciating pain relentlessly assaulted every cell in her body.“Ugh...”In less than a minute, Mable looked like she had just been fished out of the sea. She was drenched in sweat, and her face had turned bluish from the unbearable pain.It hurt...The man who had injected Mable opened another box and took out a small bottle of blue liquid.Ethan recognized what the man was holding and shouted in a panic, “Stop! Stop it! Aust!”It was a restricted drug. Injecting it into the body would magnify pain tenfold, even inducing pain from old injuries. Moreover, any cut made by it would leave a permanent scar. Even a man made of iron would not be able to endure it.Furthermore, Mable was pregnant.“Aust, tell him to stop! You’ll kill her! If she dies, the Necro Poison will die with her! Think this through!”That lunatic!If Ethan had known Aust would do this to Mable, he would not have told him about the Necro Poison inside her
“Boom—!”There was a loud explosion.The four-story villa collapsed and was engulfed in flames.Adam’s expression changed drastically as he ran toward the exploding villa. He did not have time to care about Aust.Rory was still inside...Rory ran out of the burning villa. Although his arm was injured, his life was not in danger.He shouted, “Hurry! Save our people!”Some of their people were still inside.“Rorr!” Adam ran over, still frightened.“Aust said Mabes is in the basement.”Without another word, Rory released the gun’s safety and walked toward Aust.“Tell me, where is Mable?”Rory tried his best to resist the urge to shoot Aust as he pressed the muzzle of the gun to Aust’s forehead. He was burning with rage, and his eyes were murderous.Aust raised his head and looked at Rory. He narrowed his eyes slightly. “I told you, the basement!”“No one is in the basement!”The first place Rory went was the basement as soon as he rushed into the villa.He could not see Ma
Rory paused and looked at Mable lying on the operating bed.“How is she?”Wilbur glanced at the time and reminded him, “You have three minutes to get changed.”Rory turned around and walked out.Two minutes later, Rory changed into scrubs and returned to the operating room.He walked tremblingly to Mable and stared at the wound on her wrists. He was about to burst into a rage.How dare Aust hurt her!“Mabes, I won’t let anything happen to you.”......On the other side, Blair suddenly vomited blood and fell into a coma. The doctors on the ship could not find the reason, so they had no choice but to send him back to Richworth.Solomon and Kyle dared not delay the search for Mable. After sending Blair away, they immediately brought their men to Hilary Island.When they arrived, they saw that Aust’s villa had been burned to ashes.Kyle led his team to search the island all day, but they still could not find any trace of Mable and Aust.They had no choice but to continue the s
