Chapter 500 I Promise You

Amidst the cries of despair, Lainey's eyes gradually became dull. She cried silently, as she knew that crying in such a situation was futile.

Her ****opened and closed, and she muttered, "Help me."

She regretted it so much. Why did she come here alone? Why didn't she tell Ainsley before she left?

The abandoned room smelled of mold everywhere.

Roman was covered in bruises and bound. He raised his head, panting. His face was covered in cuts, and even his brow bones were

****

He had been locked up here for three days. During these three days, he was beaten and kicked every day. In the beginning, he struggled desperately, and later he just passively accepted it. Three days ago, in the old place, Roman was looking for something.

He rarely came here. After all, this so-called "home" had long been empty. It had not been taken care of for several years. The wall had long been covered with moss, and the room was full of dust. It would only make him sad to be here again since there was no one here waiting for him anymore.

This time, he came back for the truth.

Five years ago, he was just a naïve young man, thinking about how to get his parents to buy him a sports car.

Before they bought him a car, he saw them jump to their deaths from the top of the company.

That day, he became not only an orphan but also a man in debt. The company was in the red, and all its debts were on him alone.

He didn't get it. A month ago, his father was planning to expand the company, and in the blink of an eye, the company went bankrupt. The day they jumped, he saw a man, the chief culprit.

Roman did not know who it was, except that he was called Aaden.

The pain overwhelmed Roman again, and he coughed violently.

The old wooden door creaked, and an ordinary middle-aged man walked in. He got one of those faces, which was easily forgotten. Yet seeing him, Roman was so excited that he wanted to break free of the rope badly. "You!" he said, gnashing his teeth.

The middle-aged man was expressionless. He walked over, slapped Roman, grabbed Roman's hair, and lifted Roman's head. "You are Roman Heyman?"

"Don't you know? I didn't think you'd ever forget me. You broke my family. If you don't ***me, I'll ***you," Roman said excitedly, and his dry lips were bleeding.

"Sure, as long as you can. But now, someone wants to cooperate with you," the middle-aged man said in a deep voice.

Roman smiled self-mockingly, "No. No to anything that concerns you. Don't waste your breath."

The middle-aged man didn't mind being refused. He look out his phone and pointed the screen at Roman. "I hope you can still say that after watching this"

The man pressed the play button with joy.

The screen lit up, and the woman on the screen was pressed on the table. Several men surrounded her **, gnawing lustfully at her shoulders, while some of them held her ankles.

Even though the light was dim, Roman still recognized the woman on the screen at a glance.

He felt that his heart was tom mercilessly. It was a kind of suffocating pain, making him want to break the chain and **the man in

front of him at once.

"What are you doing? Let her go! Let her go!"

The middle-aged man had a half-smile and put the phone away. He said, "What you just saw is real-time. You know what is happening. but you can do nothing about it. We can let her go, but we need you to cooperate with us."

Roman gritted his teeth, his eyes bloodshot. "Cooperate with you about what? What the heck do you want?"

"It's very easy. We want the Gage Group. Manuel trusts you the most. You can imagine how devastating it would be for him if you betrayed him."

"You wish!" Roman wanted to stand up, but his wrists were tied up tightly.

The middle-aged man was not in a hurry. He said softly. "Come in."

Someone immediately came in and handed over a tablet.

The middle-aged man took the tablet.

Then he placed it in front of Roman. He also brought over a stool and put the tablet on the stool steadily.

"It's OK if you say no. Take your time and enjoy."

He turned on the screen and was about to leave the room. Something suddenly occurred to him before he left, and he said to Roman, "Oh, by the way, you may not know this, but she was at Ainsley's place at first, and no one could lay their fingers on her. Who knows? We used your phone to text her, and she went out herself. After she entered the box and saw so many men, the first thing she asked was how you were doing."

On the tablet screen was the same video footage from the middle-aged man's phone. From this angle, it was clear that it was the surveillance camera in the room.

Roman clenched his fists tightly. He looked at the screen in pain.

Lainey's painful voice was like a sharp sword, stabbing his heart. He even realized that the club was the one he often went to.

But his hands were tied. He could only watch the woman he loved the most being...

"Get out! Get out here! Fine! I promise you! Let her go!"

Roman was out of breath, and his voice was hoarse.

He thought, I'm sorry, Mr. Gage, but I can't hold on.

The door opened the next second, and the middle-aged man made a call.

A man on the tablet screen picked up his phone.

'Let's call it a day."

The man waved his hand, and the rest immediately left the room. The person who held the phone picked up a coat from the sofa and covered Lainey.

He walked under the surveillance camera and nodded.

The middle aged man turned off the tablet. "Great. Now that you agree, she will be picked up by Ainsley soon."

"Why did you do that? My parents trusted you so much. Why did you do that to them?" Roman asked.

The middle-aged man was still expressionless. "Each man has his own boss."

He walked in front of Roman and said, "I'll go tell mine now."

Roman was full of hatred, and the pictures on the tablet were engraved in his mind, and there was no way to get rid of them.

He could not accept what had just happened.

He thought, it's all because of me. How could this have happened if I hadn't been careless and caught?

Right now, I just hope that Ainsley can replace Lainey as soon as possible. Lainey must be very scared now...

In the middle of the night, Ainsley was sleeping soundly. Suddenly, her phone rang and woke her up. "Hello?" Half asleep, she held the phone to her ear.

After a long time, no one spoke.

She glanced at the screen and immediately trembled. It was Lainey.

She had a bad feeling at once. She quickly got up and took a look at the room where Lainey was staying. Sure enough, there was no one there.

The phone was still connected, and still, the other end of the line was silent.

"Matteo, Lainey is gone!" Ainsley immediately went to Matteo.

She told Matteo everything, including the phone call that had not been hung up.
