Chapter 85: Chapter 85

Because of what he said, I was unable to speak. Because of this, I was taken aback. It never crossed my mind that even the Zhejiang people he was with— he could  do such a thing. How far will his avarice take him? Why are they as well? They unfastened my hand, and I touched my stomach because what he said made me feel queasy. I can't believe he told me this now. It was as if I was deaf and he needed to repeat what he had said to me.

"I'll give you three minutes to make a decision." If you don't do that, simply apologize to the people who are important in your life." It was as if I had my own clock when he said that, and it just took me seconds. My pulse is racing. As if I was in a hurry, and the hand of the clock was in my head, and if I did not make a decision, it was as if a pistol would push and explode in my head. I was drenched in sweat and had no idea what to do.

"TIMES UP!" he said, making me glance up to him. My pupils are still dilated. My heart was pounding and appeared trying purposefully to escape from my chest. Tears welled up in my eyes once again. He coerced me into doing something I didn't want to do. To plead, I shook him, bent down, and hugged his knee. I'm afraid I can't do what he says.

"I can do everything you say, but stop at Zhejiang and Adonis.. Not anymore." My voice was raspy, and enormous grains of tears were flowing from my eyes. Because I can't do what he demands, I shake him as I slip out. I can't make up my mind between the two. I can't sin anymore because I'm sick of what occurred and all I want is to be happy. He knelt in front of me and took my hand away from him, then lifted my chin and gazed into my puffy eyes.

"If you can't do anything, I can only hurt them both.  Wouldn't that be preferable? When that happens, I no longer have a rival for you, Luna. When I have everything, I will be able to murder Adonis and even you." As he looked around, his eyes retained the malicious smirk. How long does he intend to plan all of this? Killing someone should suffice, but why can't he just be happy? I'm going to hurt Adonis again...

Before I departed, I heard his silvery voice as I was thinking. Will he ever be mad at me? He wasn't as furious with me the last time I saw him. Only now is it possible that his rage and loathing for me would become deeper as a result of my selection of so many gullible individuals. I wanted to pick him, but I couldn't. The problem is already mingling in my head, and if I don't stop thinking, my brain may burst.

As I stood up, my knees trembled. I avoided my hand as he tried to grab me. How dare he aid someone while causing harm to hundreds of others? Despite his wicked character, I believed he harbored some tenderness in his heart. I believed I could alter him even if it was just because we were friends, but I was mistaken. You can no longer influence the wicked monster's lifespan. He, too, cannot be saved from his materialistic cruelty.

Despite my trembling feet, I attempted to return to the chair where he had previously chained me. "I'm going to expose Adonis.  I'll finish it tomorrow.”

I'm not sure where I'm going to sleep now. I wasn't sure if I still had the right to use the money Adonis had earned after I made my decision. Not only was I humiliated in his eyes, but I was also mortified on my own. I'll never be able to hate the fact that after I do my misdeeds, I'm here, spending the money that comes from his effort. They simply stood there watching my every move as I stood up. I looked at my luggage and realized I shouldn't keep it anymore since these were his items. I have no right to assert those claims— that they are mine.

“Where are you going?”

When he attempted to catch my hand, I smacked it. I'm offended that he still has the audacity to touch me after his cruel remarks. I have only one prayer: that he not find his joy. I have nothing more to wish for save that the almighty does not grant him satisfaction after everything he has done. He has no right to be joyful, and neither do I. We have no right to be happy because of the wrong we commit for others. If I had the ability, I would also like to uncover the wrongdoings he perpetrated.

"Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere, and I'm not going to run away.  All you have to do is figure out how to bring the press into a room and have them ask for my statements live." I saw in his eyes the disbelief that he couldn't see the terror on my face and expression that had before been full. I gave him a blank expression and face, but my eyes really wanted to stab him till he couldn't breathe any more.

I disappeared quickly from there until all I could see was darkness. When I stepped out, there was no mistaking that this was a school. To be specific, a school that had been burned down. I'm not sure where I am in this part of the world because this is the first time I've seen it. If they had been left before me, it would have been better for me to just sleep here because I can't afford to dine at a hotel and sleep well while using Adonis' money. I held my wallet and looked inside to check if it was still within the garment I was wearing. Because Adonis' numerous cards were there, I hid my wallet there.

As I walk out there, I speak to my stomach by touching it. "How is your father? Is he aware that we are no longer in his home? Is he still at home? What kinds of challenges is he having now? " I just continued going, not knowing where my feet would lead me. I want to get away from as many people as possible; I can't afford to interact with them when my guilty body is overflowing.

I feel alone when walking because I feel like I'm floating and thinking about what I'm going to do. I'm not sure how I'm going to destroy Adonis in a non-violent manner simply so he can solve the problem easily. If I only knew Cole's secret, he could be the only person I'd tell that had a mental condition. I want to expose him in the media that he has plans to kill a lot of people tomorrow. I could feel the numbness in my legs as I walked, but I also noticed that I had moved away from that location. I'm heading to Wayne's tomorrow to have a scan check. It's far from the city, but tomorrow is going to be chaotic, and I need to get away from the tension.

I spotted the hotel when I saw the lights, but I didn't go there since I didn't want to spend Adonis' money. I'd trek around the world to find refuge if I had to. I will do all in my power to ensure that I have nothing to fall back on. I was about to relax because I had a long walk ahead of me when a car stopped in front of me again. I gave it a grimace and stepped aside when two guards I recognized walked out. No. Why is there something new when I've just been kidnapped?
