Lucas coughed intensely again, a vicious glint appearing in his eyes, which were swollen due to beating
He thought, ‘Ishamelessly begged Sophia to save me, but that worthless thing was indifferent to my situation. Don’t blame me then for being ruthless.
“I’ll kidnap Jason’s wife and seize the opportunity to extort a sum of money from him,” Lucas said. “As you know, the Wilson family is the number one family in Cester City. Jason’s net worth is as high as tens of billions of dollars. A mere 10 million dollars is a drop in the bucket for
him.”
The figure in black frowned. After a moment of silence, he said coldly, “Don’t lie to me. As far as I know, Jason has always treated his wife indifferently. The one he loves is his wife’s cousin.”
Lucas thought for a moment. Then, he gritted his teeth and said, “Then we’ll just kidnap both of them. When the time comes, we’ll see which one is more important to him, and we’ll use that one to threaten him.”
The figure in black stroked his chin. After thinking for a moment, he raised his eyebrows, sneered, and said, “Mr. Taylor, you’re using me as a pawn. It’s fine if we successfully extort Jason. But if we fail, won’t I suffer a double loss?”
He thought, Jason’s
‘s influence in Cester City runs deep. If want to mess with him, I have to assess if I have the capability to escape from him alive. Even though I have some influence, it’s clearly not enough to confront Jason. This guy is good at scheming, trying to use my people to threaten Jason. If we succeed, I’ll live, but if we fail, I’ll suffer the consequences with him. It’s risky‘
Lucas sensed his cold gaze and could not help but shiver.
“Don’t, don’t misunderstand,” he said. “I’ve never intended to use you as a pawn. I can handle the kidnapping of those two women alone. When the time comes, I just need you to provide me with some cover. Don’t let Jason find me so quickly. I will surely be able to pry open Jason’s money bag.”
The man in black laughed out loud, it was obvious that Lucas’s words struck a chord with him. He had been planning this right from the start.
“I’ll spare your worthless life for now then. You’d better not disappoint me, or I’ll crush you and scatter your “Great,” the man in black said. ” ashes. As far as I know, your father is in prison, and your sister couldn’t care less about your well–being. Killing you is as simple as crushing an
ant.”
“Sure thing,” Lucas said. “I’m just a nuisance. I won’t dirty your honorable hands. Give me five days, no, three days. I’ll definitely satisfy you.”
The man in black did not respond.
After Sophia left the Wilson Mansion, she went straight back to the apartment she jointly purchased with Luna-
When she opened the door, a suppressed cry came from the bedroom. She thought, ‘it’s a familiar tone. It’s Luna’s. When did she come back from Vayberry? And what has she gone through? Why is she crying so sadly?”
After hurriedly putting down the things she was carrying, she strode toward the bedroom.
As she pushed open the door, she saw a person curled up in the corner by the floor to ceiling window. That person’s hair was disheveled, and her face was buried in her knees. Her body was trembling slightly, as if she had suffered a huge blow.

“Luna,” Sophia called out softly.
The woman in the corner did not respond at all. She remained silent in her own world.
Sophia tried to approach her. She slowly squatted down to check on her condition.
After parting her disheveled hair, a pale face came into view.
In her memory, Luna had always been sunny.
in
She had known her for so many years and had never
er seen her in such a desolate and sorry state.
“Luna, I’m Sophia,” she said. “Don’t be afraid. We’re home. Can you tell me what happened?”
Looking downward from Luna’s loose collar, Sophia noticed that her collarbone was covered in mottled marks. The greenish–purple love bite and pinch marks pained Sophia’s eyes.
She thought, ‘When I talked to Luna on the phone a few days ago, she said her mom was sick, so she left Cester City in a hurry. It has only been a few days. How come she ended up like this?”
Sophia had gone through similar situations, so she knew that these marks were all caused by a man.
What she saw was just the tip of the iceberg. The parts covered by Luna’s clothes were probably even more severe.
She had heard that Luna was in love, but this woman, despite appearing cheerful, was actually quite conservative.
After dating her boyfriend for half a year, Sophia supposed they had probably only held hands and that there was still a long way to go before they slept together.
She had met Luna’s boyfriend recently. He was a handsome young man, and he was 5 feet 10 inches tall. He looked quite honest. Luna liked him a lot.
“If the person who mistreats her is her boyfriend, she won’t be this sad unless he forces her to do something against her will,” Sophia thought.
“Luna, what’s wrong?” she said. “Can you say something to me? I’m really scared when you’re like this.”
As she spoke, her tears flowed uncontrollably,
She tried to reach out to hug Luna. Since Luna did not resist, she continued, “Luna, my life is tough. I was abandoned by my parents and my husband. You’re the only one I can rely on in this world. If something happens to you again, what should I do?”
Luna’s unfocused eyes gradually regained focus. She leaned on Sophia’s shoulder and sobbed.
“Sophia, I was forcibly taken advantage of by that beast,” she said.
