CHAPTER 29.SOPHIE.My heart raced uncontrollably, and my hands trembled as he turned his face toward me.It was Leo! My heart skipped a beat when our eyes met, and I gulped, unable to speak. Tension coursed through my body, and I shivered involuntarily, my feet now planted on the car seat as I hugged myself, trying to shield away from the monster.“Hey, sweetheart,” Leo said with a smile. I shook my head in disbelief. No, this must be a dream. It can't be real. I am not his sweetheart.I couldn't process how he had found me or how he knew I was staying at Jenny's place. This couldn't be a coincidence; it felt like a deliberate act. A chill ran down my spine as I sat there, watching him smile at me with a sinister expression.“Adele misses you so much,” he began, and a lump formed in my throat. “What kind of mother leaves her daughter for so long without any promise of coming back, huh?”My body froze, panic racing through my mind. How did he...? Why was he...?I tried to speak, but m

CHAPTER 33 SOPHIE."Vin, Vin, Vinci… please, you need to—" My voice trailed off as he abruptly cut the call. A deep wave of defensiveness washed over me.I nervously glanced at Leo, my eyes darting around as my whole body tensed up.He laughed, "You really think he was going to come save you? Listen up, Sophie: right now, Vincenzo only wants to kill you, and I’m sure his family feels the same way. You should be thankful I'm here to save you.""Call me 'savior,' bitch!" he shouted, releasing his feet from the brakes. He increased the speed, swerving the car from side to side, making me jump in my seat.My hands trembled as I replayed Vincenzo's words in my mind. Was I really revealing important information about his family? I shook my head. No, I couldn't have done that. I would never betray him, especially since I didn't even know his family well enough to share anything vital. This had to be a misunderstanding.The realization hit me: Vincenzo couldn't save me. I was alone now, left

CHAPTER 35SOPHIEI wondered if he really meant what he just said about liking my family if I said a word to the cops.But then the incident of cutting my credit cards and stopping my mum's hospital payments when I left flashed back in my head.There is nothing this monster can't do, but I have to take my chances and leave this car.Telling the cops that I was kidnapped will be my only escape route right now.It's now or never. I narrowed my eyes forward and saw a lot of police officers at the front. It looked like some of them were not just searching the cars; they were also searching the surroundings. Something must have happened for them to be all over the place like this.Leo drove slowly as he approached the checkpoint where he would be searched.I felt my heart racing with fear and anticipation. My hands were starting to tremble, and I clenched my fists slowly, trying to calm myself down.Leo didn't notice my pain and fears; his eyes were fixed on the area of police officers in

CHAPTER 36EMMA I stepped away from Leo. “He kidnapped me!” I screamed again in a shaky voice. “We are divorced; we are no longer married. He is an abusive freak—please don't let him take me back there.”The officers exchanged furtive glances at each other, as if they believed me, but the next moment, they just walked off, allowing Leo to come closer to me.“Come on, baby, come on,” he said in a low and sweet voice, urging me to go with him. But I instinctively stepped away slowly, my heart racing and my hands trembling. This was it; if the policeman couldn't save me, then I was done for. I couldn't even run away from here. If I did, that would only cement his claims that I was mentally ill, and they would all try to bundle me back into his car. Leo smiled as he walked up to me. Once he reached me, he held my hand carefully. He whispered, “Bitch! You think you could outsmart me on this one? Jokes on you, Sophie.” I swallowed hard, a cold chill running down my spine as my life flashe

CHAPTER 38 SOPHIEThe next morning, I woke up earlier than Jason. The first thing I did was move to the kitchen; the guest room he offered me was close to the kitchen, so I just strolled in to make something for myself for breakfast. When I got to the kitchen, I was surprised by how modern and sleek everything looked. All the appliances were top-notch, and the countertops were made of gleaming granite. But despite the impressive setup, it was crystal clear that Jason didn't cook much.All the utensils were sparkling new, barely used, and the pots and pans? I could swear they hadn't been used in a long time. Meanwhile, the fridge was stacked with takeout containers. I chuckled to myself as I opened the cabinets to see what ingredients I could find. It was clear that Jason relied heavily on delivery and takeout rather than cooking for himself. Well, I didn't blame him because of his job.Just when I was about to give up finding anything after searching for a long time, I spotted a loaf
