Chapter 177
Now, I found that once I got cheeky, I wouldn''t be afraid of anything.
I insisted on staying there. Jeremy and Tracy couldn''t do anything to me.
The staff of the funeral chamber buried Rosy ording to the rituals. I personally put a handful of
soil on Rosy''s grave and muttered, "Grandma, goodbye."
From then on, I would no longer be a member of the Archer Family.
After the burial, I didn''t stay there for one more second and left.
That afternoon, news came out that Archer''s Group Group had dered bankruptcy and that its
assets were acquired by a mysterious man.
Everyone had different opinions about who the mysterious man was.
But in my opinion, who else could it be other than Patrick?
I even thought that in a few days, Patrick would give Archer''s Group to Caroline as a gift to please
her.
I waited for about a week. But my expectation
didn''te true.
Over the week, Patrick came to pick me up every day. No matter how hard I tried to refuse, he came
to pick me up regardless of the weather conditions. I would go to the construction sites at work
sometimes. And I had to report to thepany as to wherever I would go to.
Patrick could clearly know my whereabouts.
I couldn''t even avoid him.
However, this kind of situation onlysted for a week. On the night of the seventh day, when I came
out of a construction site, I didn''t see Patrick as usual.
I guessed he probably had given up.
There was clearly some disappointment in my heart. But I felt that it was good that I could be alone
now.
I took a bus home.
For some reason, even though Patrick hadn''t picked me up, I wasn''t overjoyed in my heart.
I wasn''t even in the mood to do anything.
When I got home, I ordered a few takeaway, which rarely happened.
"Ding-dong."
When I was waiting for the take-out, sounds indicating a short text on my cell phone rang.
"Could it be a text from Patrick?" That was my first reaction.
When I took out my cell phone, I saw the sender ID of the text was "Patron".
Unexpectedly, there was a faint sense of loss in my heart.
I clicked open the text and saw that the text read, "How have you been recently? Do you encounter
any trouble at work? Do you need my help?"
I thought about it for a moment and began to edit a text. Then the doorbell rang.
Thinking that it was my takeouting, I opened the door as I replied to the text.
When I opened the door and looked up, I saw a man in ck standing outside and that he was
wearing a cap with a low cap brim.
He didn''t have anything in his hand.
At that moment, a bad feeling arose in my heart!
My first reaction was to close the door!
As I was about to close the door, the man suddenly stuck his foot in the crack of the door!
I, who was panic-stricken, didn''t think about anything. Neither did I have time to click open my
contact list or even call 911. Instead, I directly clicked the patron''s phone number on the screen!

Then the waiting sounds rang, indicating that the counterpart hadn''t picked up my call.
When I was praying that the counterpart should answer my call quickly, the door was suddenly
knocked open!
"Bang!" There was a loud noise.
The wooden door hit my face.
When I felt dizzy, the man in ck outside the door came in and covered my mouth with something.
And my will was instantly stripped away.
To be continued...
"p!"
The crisp sound of the pping and the pain on my cheek gradually made me regain some
consciousness.
I opened my eyes slightly. Before I could recognize the person in front of me, I heard her delicate
voice, "Charlotte, get up."
It was Caroline Archer!
I was sobered a lot instantly. And it wasn''t until I calmed down that I saw clearly that Caroline was
close to me.
She wore short hair and a set of sportswear outfits. And there wasn''t any makeup on her face,
which rarely happened.
Judging from her appearance, she looked a bit like a man.
I said in a hoarse voice, "You..." I wanted to speak, only to feel dizzy.
I nced around and touched the things under my body with my hand.
At this moment, I was lying on a bed whose width was 180 CM. The bed was very soft. At first
nce, I could tell that it was a high-end Simmons.
Judging from the room, I couldn''t tell where I was. But I could see the decoration of this room was
very high-end.
I was surrounded by white walls, white furniture, and sofas...
I subconsciously wanted to get up. "tter! tter!" Sounds of chains rang. My hand was quickly
restricted. And I tilted my head, only to see that my hand was locked.
"Haha, Charlotte, are you surprised?"
Observing my behavior, Caroline smiled lightly. Her eyes and the expressions in her eyes made her
innocent and naive.
I felt some pain in my head. But I soon realized what had happened.
I looked at Caroline and said angrily, "Caroline
Archer, what the hell are you doing? Did you kidnap me again?"
"Well, aren''t you supposed to call me sister?" Caroline sat sideways on the bed, reached out to tidy
up my messy hair, and said, "My good sister."
"Bang!" The next second, she raised her hand and pped me in my face!
She was very strong!
After I was pped, my ears were buzzing. And my left face was burning!
Although my hand was tied to a chain, my feet weren''t.
I raised my feet and kicked Caroline hard in the belly! And I asked, "What on earth do you want to
do?"
I kicked her hard. And Caroline, whom I kicked right at, fell backward with a painful expression on
her face.
She covered her stomach and sat at the corner of the bed for ten seconds before getting up.
She picked up aptop from the table behind her!
I recognized theptop at a nce. It was myptop!
She walked to me with theptop in her hand.
Before I could realize what she was going to do, she raised her hand and threw the wholeptop
directly at me!
I subconsciously wanted to block theptop with my hand. But when I raised my hand, I couldn''t
raise my wrist, which was locked by the chain, to my face at all!
When I wanted to turn my head again, it was toote.
The wholeptop hit me right in the face!
"Bang!" There was a loud noise.
A few secondster, I didn''t feel any pain.
Suffering the punch, I was directly stunned.
Thisptop was used for my work. Because I had to draw and render pictures. Theptop was of
high configuration. And theptop case was overwhelmingly heavy.
It wasn''t until three or four secondster that I felt pain, feeling that my bones had been smashed by
a metalptop case!
There seemed to be sticky liquid slipping down my nose.
Seeing me like this, Caroline frowned, got up, and picked up a few pieces of paper from the back
table. Then she walked to me and gently wiped my nose.
By the time she retracted the paper again, the paper had been all red.
At this time, all parts of my head and face were in great pain.
Looking at my look, Caroline giggled and said, "Charlotte, do you know why you are here today?"
I was a little stunned because of the smashing. And I couldn''t even say a word.
Caroline took theptop over and rubbed it with her hands, "In fact, if I didn''t see the things inside, I
probably wouldn''t treat you so cruelly. But I did. And I will let you experience what I went through."
I squinted at her and didn''t understand what she was talking about.
Caroline looked at me and smiled gracefully, "You didn''t expect that I would decode your hidden
code file, right?"
"Hidden code file? What is it?"
I was confused.
"Are you still pretending to be dumb?"
As Caroline said, she logged onto myputer. And unexpectedly, she found a hidden file in the E-
disk in a familiar way!
I had never seen such a file.
She double- clicked the file. And a pop- up window that asked for a password showed up. Then she
quickly input a string of numbers and opened the file.
A bunch of photos jumped out of it.
I took a general look at them and saw some videos among the photos.
