I bit my lip and tried to stop my body from shaking.
Overwhelmed by the sadness deep within my soul, I could only let my tears fall.
I clenched my fists and stubbornly held back my tears.
As I watched them exchange wedding vows and rings, my vision gradually became blurred.
My heart felt as if it had been stabbed countless times, and it was now numb after the initial excruciating pain.
Although the engagement process took just the right amount of time, it felt particularly long to me.
I saw my empty eyes on the palm-sized glass window.
I had thought that I could make myself give up and forget him.
But I was still more worried than hurt when I saw Quan Jinnian’s man outside slowly approaching Quan Shaoze.
I was sure that was Quan Jinnian’s man whom he had pointed out to me earlier on!
I was even more certain that the man was holding a gun behind him!
Seeing him approaching Quan Shaoze while the latter was still unaware and whispering to his fiancee, I felt a twinge in my heart.
I shook my head and quickly collected myself. At this moment, the effect of the anesthetic drug given to me by Quan Jinnian was almost gone.
I did my best to spit out the cloth stuffed in my mouth and shouted out in desperation, “Watch out!”
Although the storage room was well soundproofed, my words were still loud enough to shock the man outside, who was up to no good!
Seeing the man freeze for a moment before quickly backing off, I could finally set my mind at ease.
Quan Shaoze, who seemed to have also heard my voice, looked back in my direction with a slight frown.
Before I could rejoice, Zhao Dong suddenly grabbed my neck and dragged me from the window to the wall at the side.
His eyes were cold as he said viciously, “Since you can’t wait to get out, I shall satisfy you!”
At this moment, the masquerade party on the cruise ship had begun.
Zhao Dong took out a larger dose of anesthetic and fed it to me before helping me change into a gown hastily. He then stuffed my mouth with a piece of cloth and put an inconspicuous black full face mask on me.
After also putting one on himself, he took me to a corner of the party.
Needless to say, my hands were still tied, but no one noticed anything amiss because his arm was around me.
Due to the strong effect of the drug, my movements were completely controlled by him.
“Now, I shall let you take a closer look at how your man is behaving intimately with another woman!” he said in a low and merciless voice beside my ear.
My chest tightened, but I was weak all over and couldn’t do anything despite my anger.
I looked at Quan Shaoze through the crowd. He was dancing like prince charming in the center with his fiancee, and I felt broken inside.
My vision cleared up quickly, and tears had already rolled down my face.
I was glad that I had a mask on to cover the look on my face.
Since I finally managed to get out, I quickly took a few deep breaths to control my emotions, suppressing the bitterness and pain in my heart. I then began to look for opportunities to tell Quan Shaoze that he was in danger.
But when I was desperately trying to counter the effect of the anesthetic, I suddenly saw Quan Shaoze smiling softly at his fiancee.
My heart bloomed and died at that same instant.
I suddenly felt embarassed, and my vision turned blurry again. I bit my lip and stopped myself from making any noise.
Lin Feng, did you know how pathetic you were?
Why was your love always so worthless? He was already engaged and you were still concerned about him?
