Chapter 781 Not a Regular Person

"That's not the case," the driver explained in a collected manner. It was much slower compared to how fast he drove. One couldn't imagine he was a kidnapper. "We've had many clients from previous jobs who behaved calmly like you at the start. We also used a somewhat softer approach with them. Yet, they still quarreled with us halfway through the drive. That forced us to resort to unnecessary measures. In telling you all that, I'm hoping that you, Ms. Johnson, will cooperate with us."Rebecca snorted, then shut her eyes and leaned against the backseat.They had kidnapped her in the middle of the night, blindfolded her, and sped down the road. Despite all that, she found herself falling asleep in no time. She was even a little hazy from waking up when her kidnappers led her outside after parking the car.Rebecca couldn't see the road ahead and could only discern her environment through her senses. She heard the wind blowing against trees that rustled. They sounded close to where she

Chapter 782 Unknown Whereabouts

Caleb was still optimistic before heading upstairs. Rebecca may have ignored his text and phone call, but maybe she fell asleep out of exhaustion. Perhaps she didn't want a call to wake her, so she switched on "Do Not Disturb" mode.After all, she had been busy these past few days. She had submitted work earlier that day and chatted with Penny and the others until late at night. It was normal for her to want to relax after returning home.Alas, Caleb's optimism vanished once he entered the elevator, which required residents to scan their resident cards. What he felt next was immense fear.Rebecca's apartment building elevators required all residents to scan their cards before they could press a floor button.Caleb had a residential card, but his sharp senses immediately detected something was off once he put his card on the scanner. The elevator's automated announcements, the delayed floor number on the indicator screen, and Caleb's intuition told him the system had been tamper

Chapter 783 A Useless Bunch

Nate nudged his glasses higher up his nose. "I tried contacting him, but he still hasn't responded."He didn't have David's contact number, so he clearly couldn't send him a message on WhatsApp. So, he resorted to a dumber contact method. Nate emailed David. That ensured David could definitely receive his message.It was a work email listed on the Winston Group's website. Someone would look through and deal with the incoming emails, even if they were spam. That was why it was a dumber method.Daniel, who got ignored by Nate and Caleb, suddenly spoke up. "David's not in the country for now. If it really turns out to be the person David offended—"He paused but didn't continue. Instead, he fished out his phone. "I'll try contacting him."Daniel and his biologically related older brother had become enemies. Yet, he had still exchanged contact numbers when bumping into Darren at the hospital. It was unclear if there was a psychological term to describe Daniel's situation, but he was

Chapter 784 An Old Fox

To David's surprise, the phone call went through. In truth, he had only called out of frustration and wanted to see if his suspicions were correct. David knew the truth once the call connected.He couldn't think of anyone who would do such a thing except Darren, who was old and close to death's door. Plus, Darren was a patient, so why wasn't he resting at this late hour? It probably meant he was up to no good. David got to the point once the call connected. "You're already ancient. Is there a point in doing all this?"Darren continued his pretense of not knowing anything. He spoke in a frail voice. "You're kicking up such a fuss at this late hour. What vague nonsense are you getting at?" David scoffed. "Yeah, right. I'm only spewing this 'vague nonsense' because you started it. Grandpa, I can apologize if you're doing this because I left without informing you. But it has nothing to do with others. Why would you cause trouble to a helpless woman? Let her go."After a pause, D

Chapter 785 Fell Asleep

There was a small wooden house by the sea at Fairport.Rebecca had been sitting in this leaky place all night.She drifted in and out for a while, but she couldn't hold it any longer. Even though she was tied up, she couldn't bear to sit like this at midnight.Although she slept, she was conscious. After all, the leaky wooden house was too cold at night. Even if she felt sleepy and almost unconscious, she would still get forced to wake up by the cold.She could only be grateful that she was in a relatively southerly location. She wouldn't freeze to death at night.She was blindfolded, and her arms were already numb from being tied behind her back. Her feet were so cold that she lost all feeling in them. She could only thank the two kidnappers for not tying her up too tightly. She could move her ankles within an appropriate range to make her feel like she was still in the world.She didn't know how much time had passed.At first, she counted the lapping waves. But later, she beca

Chapter 786 Don't Do the Wrong Thing

A heavy knocking sound sounded inside the house.A vibrating feeling came from the soles of her feet. Rebecca woke up from her sleep.At the same time, someone removed the blindfold.The dazzling light made her unable to open her eyes for a moment. She squinted before she could make out what was before her.It was different from what she imagined. The person before her wasn't a vicious gangster but an old man with a relatively kind face.At this moment, Darren sat opposite her. He was holding a dragon-headed walking stick. The knocking just now was probably caused by him striking the floor with this walking stick.She thought, "His body looks bad, but he still had quite a lot of strength."As she looked at him, he observed her.After being in the cold wind all night, her beautiful face was a little pale. Her hair was a little messy, and her lips were also dry.Anyone could imagine how she'd look if she stayed in such an environment for a few more hours.When she saw him, she

Chapter 787 He's Pissed Off

After Darren gave the order, the bodyguards in black came toward Rebecca.The chains binding her hands and feet were removed, and she was soon shackled again by new ones.She tried to struggle, but they were much stronger than she was. After all, a woman's strength could not compare to theirs. She was also dealing with multiple opponents. Her struggle was equivalent to scratching an itch.Within three minutes, her hands were tied behind her back again.Seeing that she was struggling, a bodyguard glanced at Darren and then kicked her knee.After being locked up for a night, her hands and feet were so numb that she could barely stand. She was kicked to the ground and fell to her knees.She was in so much pain that she couldn't recover for a long time. When her consciousness gradually came back, the bodyguards dragged her to him.His walking stick was on the ground. It was half stained with dirt and looked worn."Do you have anything else to say?"His majestic voice came from abo

Chapter 788 Clueless Fool

As Rebecca was hastily dragged away, she shot a quick glance at Mr. Winston Senior, who was convulsing in the arms of the doctor. A hoarse chuckle escaped her lips as she said, "Mr. Winston Senior, I must admit I've got a bit of a temper. What you said actually makes sense. Karma is just a psychological comfort for ordinary people. "When it comes to revenge, taking matters into one's own hands is far more satisfying." If she couldn't survive, she was determined to infuriate him to the core. Being forcibly pulled away from the wooden house, Rebecca managed to catch a glimpse of the infuriated Mr. Winston Senior pointing at her, trembling and muttering incomprehensibly. He couldn't articulate a coherent sentence. Only strange and incomprehensible sounds came from him. Soon, she found herself forcefully taken onto a ferry, where the nauseating smell of engine oil filled the air. A bearded foreigner with deep-set eyes stood at the boarding gate. He engaged in a conversation i

Chapter 789 Strength Gradually Returning

As the conversation concluded, the two bodyguards handed Rebecca over to Beardo and briskly walked away without a backward glance. The sea breeze blew strongly, and Rebecca couldn't help but think she must have appeared as disheveled as a beggar on the streets of Seardale. She was led to a corner of the deck by Beardo. Her hands were chained and locked to the railing as if she were a piece of cargo brought onto the ferry. This was a precautionary measure to prevent any escape attempts from her. Gazing at the azure ocean, she listened to the buzzing cacophony around her. Unable to withstand the unpleasant scent of diesel fuel, she eventually succumbed and vomited. Having gone through the night without much food and an empty stomach, she expelled only bile. A passerby noticed and loudly berated her while delivering a swift kick to her stomach. In an unfamiliar accent, he scolded her for sullying the area. She was curled up in the corner. Rebecca's head throbbed intensely, and

Chapter 790 Stinks

The room remained dimly lit. No one had a phone on them, and nobody knew how much time had passed. The only rhythm they followed was eating when hunger struck, sleeping when exhaustion overcame them, and navigating to the distant corner for necessary bathroom breaks. The cramped toilet was barely enough for one person to stand in, but it served for washing hands and faces and attending to toilet needs. As time went on, the smell of ammonia gradually spread in the small space. Initially, only the nearby area had a stench, but eventually, even Rebecca on this side could catch a whiff. However, Rebecca and the woman beside her were already sitting in the farthest corner of the space. The unpleasant odor in the air became increasingly pungent, and the men, now familiar with each other, became more audacious in their speech. Dreams of striking it rich in the new place turned into discussions about the beauty of the women in this unfamiliar territory. These crude remarks could
