Retribution in Bloom Chapter 33 Disappointed and Kidnapped
Silence fell. It was a very long silence. I could faintly hear heavy breathing coming from outside through the crack of my door. While I could not see Terry's face, I could sense the pain and conflicted emotions he was being barraged by. Michele was his sister! How could he go after her? "I'm sorry, Adrianna. I... I can't do that." Terry's voice was hoarse and dripping with agony. "Still, I won't give up on you."In the end, it's my family who wronged you. I'll use my whole life to make it up to you, to give you a good life."As he did not want to push me too far, he left for now. I felt a heavy burden on my shoulders. At the same time, I came to a decision. I pulled out my phone and called Scott. "Hey, babe, have you thought it over?""Yes." I nodded. "I've made up my mind.""Really? Babe, once this is over, I'll marry you..."I instantly interrupted his happy rambling and emphasized, "I won't do it. I won't get together with Terry."Silence fell on the other e

Michele stopped talking. Her face was swollen, as blood began to drip from the corner of her mouth. She was utterly stunned. At the same time, she backed down and became more subdued. My reaction was the opposite of hers. I was unusually silent and seemingly calm. The bald man could not resist glancing at me. Then, he pulled out his phone and put it on speaker as he called Terry. "Terry, I have Adrianna and Michele.""Let them go! How much do you want? I'll pay." Terry's voice rang over the phone. "Do you think I need money?" The bald man scoffed. Moments later, he spat out through gritted teeth, "You killed my family, so I'll give you a taste of the same agony."Let's play a game. You can only choose one woman out of these two. The one you choose will be released while the abandoned one..." The bald man excitedly glanced at the metal cage. "She'll be fed to the dogs!""Terry! Terry, pick me! Pick me! I'm your sister!" Michele immediately started shouting in panic. Ter

I bit my lips hard. I was using the pain to numb the pain in my heart. Indeed, what a joke. I shut my eyes. When I next opened them, they were covered in ice. "Scott, I agree to do what you suggested," I calmly stated....I called Terry, telling him I had escaped. When he heard I wanted to stay by his side due to how scared I was, he immediately sent a car for me. I was brought back to the Finnen Residence. Melissa had gone on a vacation abroad. The only other person at home was Michele. However, she was resting in her room due to the shock and trauma she suffered. I did not see her at all. "Adrianna! I was just about to send someone to rescue you. Thank goodness you're alright!" Terry embraced me. This tall man was actually looking at me with red eyes. I went stiff. With a frown, I resisted the urge to push Terry away. On the inside, I was laughing. What a great actor Terry was. Not even in his dreams could he have imagined that the bald man had put the call

Caught off guard, I ended up with Michele's hands wrapped around my neck as she squeezed hard. "L-Let go."Michele's strength was overwhelming. I tried to pry her hands away, scraping and scratching until blood welled up on her skin, but I could not get her off me. Breathing became a struggle, my face turning an ashen white. Dizziness washed over me in intense waves, a loud roar filling my head. I pushed past the agonizing pain and desperately called for help. "H-Help! S-Save me!"But Michele was unfazed, her voice hysterical as she screeched, "Scream all you want, Adrianna! No one will come to your aid. "I've sent all the servants away, so stop wasting your energy. Just accept your fate and die!"Despair seized me as I realized Michele spoke the truth.Yet, I couldn't resign myself to this fate. I couldn't die just like this. With a clenched jaw, I gathered all my strength and stomped hard on the back of Michele's knees. "Argh!"Her grip slackened in pain. Seizing

"Mr. Finnen, please spare me!" the bald man pleaded. With a cold look on his face, Terry stood up and looked at the other man like he was already dead. "You deserve death for hurting her."Then, he said to his subordinate, "I don't want to see him again.""Yes, Mr. Finnen! Scott has gone too far. Should we inform Ms. Nanami?"Terry faltered for a moment before shaking his head. "No, there's no need. Such filth is not fit to be heard by her. She will have me for the rest of her life. I will protect her, never letting her come to harm ever again."I stumbled as I ran out. Still, I could not hold back the pain. With my arms around myself, I sank to my knees and howled with sorrow. Scott, the man who kept going on and on about how he would marry me. I really was blind. I could not even differentiate a man from a monster.As for Terry…"Fool! You're an absolute idiot…" I murmured through my tears. But then, slowly, a smile broke through my sorrow as warmth filled my heart. S

However, before my smile could truly blossom, our happy moment was abruptly interrupted by a shocking explosion. I flinched, terror seizing me.Terry's face was dark as he hurriedly pulled me into his arms to keep me safe in his protective embrace. The mansion's doors had been blasted open. Through the settling dust and smoke, Scott—dressed in his finely tailored suit—and a group of mercenaries strode in.His eyes fixed on our intertwined hands, narrowing with a dangerous intensity as a lethal intent emanated from him."Adrianna, come here!" he barked out through gritted teeth. "No way!" I shot back immediately. "Scott, I have nothing to
