Chapter 61 Where''s Louis?


    Chapter 61 Where''s Louis?


    nche dashed toward the backyard of the restaurant, but there was no ce to hide in the open


    space.


    She clenched her fists and ran toward therge, locked iron door, which was her only way out.


    "Ha, do you think you can run away? Go get him!"


    She didn''t waste a moment and scrambled up, trying to grab the top of the iron door. But before she


    could reach it, she was yanked down by a strong force from behind.


    "D*mn! It''s impressive of you to run despite the effects of the drug. That''s sick, Mr. Herbart."


    nche covered her head and crouched on the ground, hoping to buy time for Louis by not


    revealing her face.


    "Something is wrong. Louis is robust, while this person is petite, like a woman," someone voiced his


    doubt.


    "A woman?"


    The next moment, nche was lifted by a pair of thick hands on her chin. Her hat fell off, and her


    face was exposed.


    She winced in pain, her face pale and twisted.


    "D*mn! It''s really a woman. We''ve been fooled."


    "We can''t go back empty-handed." One of the men panicked. By that time, Louis might have


    escaped.


    "Hmph! This little b*tch must know where Louis is. We just need to get it out of her." He pinched


    nche''s chin heavily and looked down to find that the suit and leather shoes she was wearing


    belonged to Louis.


    "Who... is Louis? I don''t know him. You''ve got the wrong person," nche trembled, pretending to


    be clueless.


    "Don''t y dumb. Do you think we''re blind? The clothes you''re wearing are his. Tell us, where is


    Louis hiding?"


    In a fit of pique, the man pressed her face against the rough wall.


    nche felt that her skin had been worn off.


    "This is a mistake. I found the clothes in the trash can. I don''t know who they belong to," she said.


    "Get her up. I''ll ask her myself," a raspy voice said.


    The man released his grip on nche''s head, but he turned to grab her wrist and dragged her


    forward.


    nche felt like she was amb to the ughter, and her heart was pounding wildly.


    She was forced to her knees, and the fabric of her pants rubbed and tore against the rough ground.


    The skin on her knees broke, and she clenched her teeth. The kneeling position was too


    humiliating, and she tried to stand up. But before she could, she was knocked down once again.


    "Bitch, stop moving," the man growled.


    nche dared not stand up again, and she covered her painful cheek.


    She lifted her head slightly, only to see a fierce-looking man. The sight of his hideous brown face


    alone made her tremble.


    "Where is Louis? You''d better tell me immediately because I''m not a patient person," he said,


    cing a knife on nche''s neck, cutting her fair skin instantly.


    nche''s teeth chattered as she wondered what kind of luck had brought her here, only to lose her


    life like this.


    In her heart, she prayed repeatedly for Louis toe and save her. She didn''t want to die.


    "I don''t know who you''re talking about. You''ve got the wrong person. I really did just pick up the


    clothes," she said.


    "Do you really think we''re blind? Well, I''ll give you onest chance. If you refuse to tell, you will go to


    hell," the man threatened, the flesh on his face trembling.


    nche clenched her fists so forcefully that they sweated. She knew this man wasn''t joking with


    her, but she couldn''t say anything.


    Louis had just been drugged, and he might not have been rescued yet.


    Seeing that nche still had her mouth tightly shut, the man ran out of patience and left.


    "D*mn! What a waste of my time! Get rid of her and go find Louis," he ordered.


    The man who had just pressed nche against the wall held up a glinting dagger. He lifted her from


    the ground and covered her mouth. Drawing the dagger close to her abdomen, he didn''t give her a


    chance to speak.


    nche was forced to tilt her head back, her eyes widening in horror. It was getting dark, and her


    mind was nk.


    "This chick looks quite pretty, but she is stubborn as hell. If I''m not in a hurry today, I''ll im you.


    Now I have to send you to hell," the man said.


    "Mmm..." nche struggled desperately but was held down from behind.


    A chill settled in her abdomen, and her grandmother''s kind face shed before her eyes. She shook


    like a leaf as the man behind her let go, causing her to fall to the ground.


    However, the expected pain did note. nche was still curled up on the ground, holding her


    head and shivering violently, unable to hear fighting around her.


    N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    She thought she must have died and it must have hurt too much that she couldn''t feel anything. She


    felt sorry for her grandma.


    "It''s okay. I''m here to save you," Louis said as he approached and held nche''s shoulders, gently


    patting them to bring her out of her fear-induced state.


    "nche."


    ''Huh? Why does the voice sound so familiar?'' She wondered, ''Louis?''


    As she slowly tilted her head up and realized it was indeed Louis, she swallowed hard.


    "Bawl, did you die too? That''s too bad." Her eyes brimmed with tears as she recalled the moment


    when the dagger had been thrust at her. She had been scared out of her wits.


    Seeing nche cry for the first time, Louis felt as though his heart had been squeezed. She was


    usually mischievous and lively, but now that she was crying. He felt helpless and unsure of what to


    do.


    It made him feel like he had failed to protect her.


    "It''s alright. You''re fine. Sam stopped that bastard in time," Louis reassured her gently as he wiped


    away her tears.
