Semua Bab My Contracted Wife Don't Run Away: Bab 71 - Bab 80

Laura's POV:Clair and I sat in our separate rooms, locked away from the outside world. Despite being imprisoned, the only thing that kept us going was the knowledge that the other was just on the other side of the wall. We communicated through the cracks, our voices barely audible, but it was enough to keep us connected.I sat on my bed, my hands clutched tightly to the wall. Ever since Jerry left, I had been trying to think of a way to escape for hours, but nothing seemed possible. I couldn't bear the thought of being locked away for the rest of my life. Aside that, I couldn't bear to think of what Jerry wants to do with Reiner. "Clair," I called out softly, my voice barely audible through the wall.There was a moment of silence before I heard a faint response. "I'm here, Laura," came the voice of my younger twin sister.I let out a sigh of relief. "I've been thinking about Reiner," I said, my voice trembling. "I miss him so much. Moreover, I'm very worried about this little ga

Reiner's POV:I was on the phone with Jerry, driving to the address he had given me. As I pulled up to the address, I could tell that I was at the beach. The sun was just starting to rise and I could see the ocean in the distance. That's when I realized I've been playing Jerry's game for hours throughout the entire night. What a hassle. I was at my limit. I doubt I'd be able to take anymore of Jerry's shit. What kept me going was Laura. She and Clair were the last people I'm rescuing. I have to keep going. I've got to keep fighting. I promised Laura's parents I'd bring their daughters back. I wasn't giving up on that promise. I double checked the address with Jerry, making sure I was in the right place. "Hello," I said. "I'm here. Where are you?"Jerry confirmed that I was at the address and told me, "Go inside the beach cabin. I'd see you there."I got out of my car and walked towards the cabin. It was small and looked like it hadn't been used in a while. I dialed Jerry's n

Laura's POV:I was seated in the midst of my family as we talked about Jerry and what had transpired last night. Having kidnapped each of us individually, it seemed a miracle we were all back together safe and sound. Everyone shared their story, each person taking their time to give an accounted details. Mom started first. It appears Jerry had been watching Clair and mom since she put to bed. He had his men followed them on their way to the airport and that was how he kidnapped them. Dad was at home when a group of men bursted into his house and took him that same day.As for me, Jerry appeared in our home with two men who blindfolded me and took me away. Jerry told me how it happened.The house he locked Clair and I in was the basement of an old winery. He didn't disclose the address to me. And I never cared to know the address either. Mom was taken to a warehouse while Dad was taken to a different location. The beach cabins were rented out by Jerry to ensure his game was saf

Laura's POV:It's been three months since Reiner and I moved into our new home. I never could have imagined that living in poverty would be such a difficult experience.The house itself is not the problem, but the challenges it brings are numerous. For one, we can barely afford to put food on the table. We're constantly cutting back on meals and going without things we used to take for granted. The kids are always hungry and I can see it in their faces.But that's not the worst of it. Wendy, who also lives with us now, has suddenly turned against me. She blames me for our financial problems and calls me the cause of all our troubles. It's not fair, but I can't shake the feeling that she may be right. Ever since I put to bed, it's been one problem from another. I couldn't shake it. Last night, Reiner and I were in bed and I couldn't help but voice my frustrations."Reiner, we've got to talk," I said as he got on the bed beside me. "Honey I'm tired. Can we have this talk some

Laura's POV:It's been a whole month since then. Reiner and I never had an argument again but we were at it again and it started out of nowhere. Unexpected, like a trap. I was at home nursing the kids when Reiner walked in and announced that he wants to take me out on a date. I couldn't help but feel a wave of happiness wash over me. It had been a while since we went out together, and I was looking forward to some alone time with my husband."Laura, get dressed, I'm taking you out," Reiner said with a smile. I couldn't help but feel a flutter in my stomach at the thought of getting dressed up and going out with my husband.I walked to my closet and picked out my favorite dress. It was a beautiful, red, off-the-shoulder dress that hugged my curves in all the right places. I paired it with a pair of strappy heels and some simple jewelry.As I got ready, I couldn't help but think about the hardships our family was facing. We were still struggling financially, and it had been a diff
