Chapter 971


    Caught unprepared, he was pushed to the ground.


    I quickly pulled out the phone from his pocket and called the cops.


    Though as soon as I made the call, the woman snatched the phone away.


    The male doctor got up from the ground and pinned m e down. My hands were tied behind my


    back, and my bones were twisted in an excruciating manner. My face was pressed against the cold


    tiles. I tried to speak but could not get a word out.


    The woman screamed in my ears, "I told you that you''ll suffer the consequences if you refuse to


    cooperate!"

    I squeezed my eyes shut, frantically figuring out ways t o save myself.


    The other party had shed all pretenses. The two women sent me back to the room where I was


    previously held, leaving one person behind to watch m e.


    We both faced each other. She looked at me with frosty eyes. "You''d better behave yourself or you’ll


    end up in the deep woods."


    I sneered. "So you admit that you’re from a criminal


    organization?" "Does it matter whether I admit it or not?" The woman crossed her arms and looked


    condescendingly at me. " Don''t ever think about leaving once youe in.


    That''s why I advise you to behave yourself so you’ll suffer a little less."


    "Why are you imprisoning me?"


    If I were to die, then I had to at least know what these guys wanted from me.


    The woman shrugged and said with a smile, "We need beautiful young women like you."


    Human trafficking?


    This was what came to my mind first. I believed that my expression was ghastly at the moment.


    Perhaps there was even a trace of fear on my face.


    Seeing how pale my face was, she stood up and approached me, then squeezed my jaw tightly.


    I endured the pain and calmly said, "If what you want i s money, then I can give it to you."


    She sneered, her delicate features drawing close. Her eyes looked like those of a viper as she


    scrutinized my face. "You’re the luckiest out of all the women I captured. ording to the things


    they normally do, you would’ve been sent abroad by now."


    My heart clenched, and my body started quivering uncontrobly. This was an instinctive fear.


    The woman sat back in her chair and said in an icy tone, "Don''t worry. You won’t die yet, so just rest


    assured and sit here."


    I pursed my lips and thought about it before asking, " How much money do you want? I can give it


    to you."


    The woman had no ns of responding to me. She gave me no response regardless of what I said.


    After about half an hourter, the woman left the room.


    I stood up from the chair but fell to the floor because m y legs went weak.


    I had no friends or rtives in Riverbank City. No one woulde looking for me if I suddenly


    vanished, nor would anyone care. This was why they targeted me.


    Horton would not call the cops even if he noticed something was amiss. I had no confidence at all.


    Another night had passed, and no one was here to save me. I was in despair by now.


    The door suddenly opened and the same woman from before walked in. She looked at me and


    said, "It’s about time."


    Having said that, she looked at the two men behind her.


    The men approached me, and I retreated as I asked in a trembling tone, "Where do you n to take


    me?"


    The woman said coldly, "You don''t have to know." "Where are you taking me?" I broke down a little


    and raised my pitch.
