Chapter 127

"Evelyn, Evelyn, answer mel" Ethan shouted. "Evelyn?"

Ethan's voice became increasingly distant, and I could no longer make out what he was saying as my consciousness faded.

In the last moment, before I lost consciousness, I saw two blurry figures drawing closer.

"Why ha

hasn't this bitch woken up yet? This is such a hassle."

When I came to again, I opened my eyes to see Benjamin's face looming over me. His yellowed teeth gleamed as he spolo, and the stench of his breath hit me like a wall. "Finally awake! I've been waiting forever!"

His lecherous grin made my skin crawl as he turned to shout, "Luke, get in here! The woman's awake!"

My head throbbed painfully, and the agony coursing through my body kept me tethered to reality. "You better not touch me, or when I get out of here, I will-" Before I could finish my threat, Luke slapped me across the face, sending me reeling. I instinctively glanced toward my phone, just catching a glimpse of its case. Thank goodness they hadn't discovered I had been in contact with Ethan.

by cheekburned from the slap, and Lake sneered at me, his expression menacing. "I don't care who you are! Do you think you can threaten us in this situation? You're asking for it!"

Denna shoved Luke aside and reached out to touch my face. "Hey, can't you be gentler? It's a shame to mess up such a pretty face."

As he spoke, his hand slipped under my clothes.

Fear surged through me, and I screamed, "Let go of me! I said I can pay you!"

Luke paused for a moment but then pulled out his phone.

"Hold on, We have to take care of business first. The boss is in a hurry."

"Yeah, yeah, but let me have a little fun first. Just let me get a few pictures to show him. That should be enough, right?"

Benjamin was already yanking at my clothes, "What's with the boss? Why does he want to wait until she's awake to take the pictures? It's such a waste of time. Does he think she looks better awake?"

Benjamin's words sent a shiver down my spine, and my pupils dilated in fear. "Please, no! I'm begging you!" I cried, my voice breaking as I lost my composure- Benjamin didn't stop; in fact, his movements became more frantic

I could hear his breathing growing heavier. "Don't blame us; blame yourself for messing with the wrong people."

The ropes were tightly wound, malding it a struggle for Benjamin to get my jacket oft.

Despair washed over me, and I felt a sudden surge of resolve.

If only...

Suddenly, there was a loud bang as the old wooden door was kicked open, and Ethan charged in

""Evelyn, don't be afraid! I'm here!"

The sudden burst of light was blinding, and whether it was from the brightness or the hope of rescue, the tears I had been holding back started to fall.

I instinctively looked back at the doorway, hoping to see more help arrive, but no one else followed.

"What the hell is going on?" Luke was the first to react.

Benjamin hesitated for a moment before glaring at me. Then, he grabbed a metal rod nearby, charging toward Ethan.

The three of them began to fight.

Ethan was fit and had some skills in self-defense, but going against two people, he quickly found himself at a disadvantage. "Ethan, where are the police? Why is it just you?" Ethan glanced at me for a brief second, and at that moment, Luke pulled out a life from somewhere and lunged at him
