“Boom!”
Molly’s car spiraled out of control, crashing into the road barrier. The hood flew up, releasing plumes of white smoke as the airbags deployed.
Buckled in, Molly felt a sharp pain in her chest from the seatbelt’s force.
The black sedan that caused the accident had vanished, leaving her seething with rage.
“What happened? Molly, talk to me!” Flynn’s voice boomed over the phone.
He had heard gunfire and subsequent explosions over the call, causing his heart to skip a beat.
“Cough cough… I’m okay… They shot out the tires, and I hit the barrier,” Molly managed to say as she unbuckled herself and crawled out of the car.
“Stay put, I’m on my way!” Flynn responded urgently.
A minute later, Flynn’s Aston Martin screeched to a halt beside Molly.
“Just you?” Molly was stunned to see Flynn arrive alone.
Flynn nodded, “I’m enough!”
“Are you joking? There are five kidnappers, all Semi-Grandmasters. We’re no match for them!” Molly stamped her foot in frustration.
In her eyes, Flynn was at best a Semi-Grandmaster, just like herself.
Two against five, and the enemies were armed; they stood no chance.
Molly had expected Flynn to bring reinforcements, even a bodyguard from the Sharp’s Group would have sufficed.
But he had recklessly come alone!
“As long as you’re okay. Go to the hospital; I’ll handle the rest,” Flynn said dismissively, ready to leave.
However, Molly jumped into Flynn’s car, resolute. “Scarlet and Ms. Sharp are my friends; I can’t just stand by!”
Despite her disdain for Flynn, she couldn’t bear to see him walk into certain death.
With the situation dire, she had no choice but to join him.
Flynn, knowing Molly’s stubbornness was unyielding and lacking time to argue, reluctantly allowed her to come along.
“Boom!”
The silver Aston Martin roared like an arrow speeding northward.
“Northview’s vast expanse of wilderness, where do we even start looking for them?” Molly expressed her confusion and worry.
Northview was a dense forest, scarcely visited, crisscrossed with valleys.
Once the kidnappers entered, finding them would be nearly impossible.
Flynn remained silent, eyes fixed on the approaching vast mountain, as he dialed Nathan’s phone.
“Log into the Eternal Eye system, find a black sedan in Niarak Northview!”
Molly was shocked, hardly believing Flynn had access to the Eternal Eye-a National Security Bureau’s tool that used specialized satellites to observe everything in real time with far greater precision and clarity than commercial satellites, capable of identifying even license plates on highways.
How did Flynn have the authority to use the Eternal Eye? Did he know someone at the National Security Bureau?
This thought filled Molly with a myriad of doubts; this man was constantly challenging her perceptions of him.
…
“We’re finally here!”
The black sedan was parked beside a small depression in the land.
There stood a dilapidated two-story building.
Forty years ago, when leprosy broke out in Ostrad, Niarak Prefecture built this isolation hospital to prevent the spread of the disease.
Abandoned thirty years ago, it had become a haven for animals.
Now, with peeling walls and ivy covering them, the building seemed eerily like a haunted house.
The kidnappers led Rose and Scarlet inside, a musty, rusty smell hitting them as they entered.
Two stayed on the first floor.
The others took Rose and Scarlet to a small room on the second floor.
“Tie up their limbs; we’ll take turns!” Vincent glanced at the two women and pointed to a wooden bed that had been cleared earlier. “Let’s get this done quickly; we still need to report back.”
“Vincent,” one of the kidnappers with a pistol grinned and said:
“These girls are so fresh, let’s not kill them after our turn. We could move them somewhere else, and then we can have our fun every day… hehe…”
Another robber, grinning lasciviously, nodded incessantly in agreement.
They each drew an annual salary of a million dollars from Maximo and were not short of women.
But Rose and Scarlet were too beautiful, and the more they looked, the more they liked them, almost regretting the thought of killing them.
“Do you have nothing but women on your mind?” Vincent glared at the man, his voice harsh:
“We don’t have much time, the women who were chasing us must have sought help by now.”
“Hurry up and complete the mission, kill them! The longer it takes, the more likely things will go wrong!”
“Alright!” The two robbers exchanged glances, pushed Rose and Scarlet onto a wooden bed, and began to tie their limbs to prevent resistance later.
Their gazes swept over Rose and Scarlet.
Both women were of exceptional beauty.
Scarlet was the cute and lovely type, with a full chest and baby fat, her eyes large.
Rose, on the other hand, was the cool, aloof type with long, slim legs, a perky rear, fair neck, and captivating, luscious red lips.
It seemed a pity to kill them after just one encounter.
“Come on, baby, let me taste the grapes of Niarak’s finest beauty!” the man with the pistol said, a flicker of excitement in his eyes as he took rope to tie Rose’s arms to the headboard.
“Beast!” Rose kicked at the man with all her might.
Scarlet also took the opportunity to lash out, biting the arm of the other robber.
After these actions, they both ran towards the door.
Vincent would not let them succeed. He slapped each of them, pulling them back.
They both felt dizzy and tasted blood in their mouths, collapsing onto the bed.
“Damn it!”
One of the robbers had a bleeding nose from the kick, and the other nearly had a chunk of flesh torn from his arm.
Enraged, they approached Rose and Scarlet and slapped each of them.
Especially Rose, the man with the broken nose seemed more vicious, unsatisfied with just a slap, he punched Rose in the stomach.
The punch to her abdomen brought Rose to her knees, her stomach churning in pain, her brain spinning.
“You’re after me, let Scarlet go!” Rose almost screamed.
Molly’s car had crashed into a barrier, and Rose didn’t know if she was seriously injured.
She also didn’t know if Flynn had arrived or where he was.
She even more didn’t know if, in the vast mountains, Flynn could find them.
Perhaps Flynn might manage to find them after some effort, but by then they might have already been harmed and then killed.
Rose felt like her heart was being torn apart.
She wasn’t afraid of dying, but she feared dying with a tarnished reputation.
Being raped, photographed naked, and killed would certainly bring more rumors and insults to the Sharp family, leaving her a topic of idle gossip forever.
Braiden, you’re truly despicable!
“Let her go?” Vincent chuckled, shaking his head: “Ms. Sharp, I’m sorry, but I can’t promise you that.”
“Scarlet is close to Flynn, and according to Mr. Swanson, since they were caught together, they should be treated the same, raped then killed.”
Hearing this, Rose and Scarlet felt chills all over, completely despondent.
“A bunch of shameless trash, you’ll definitely receive your karma, you’ll definitely go to hell, and never be reborn!”
“Let us go, let us go!”
Scarlet screamed in anger, veins bulging on her neck.
She was too scared, too desperate.
She had never encountered such a situation in her life, thinking that such a furious shout might scare the robbers away.
But the robbers were unfazed, and she broke down first, crying on the wooden bed:
“Mr. Clark, where are you? I’m scared, I’m really scared… sob sob…”
