Chapter 495 The phone Is Gone
lel you feel hell
These vvords exploded in Augusts mind. Hts body tensed up and his ears rang. He looked at the thugs gathenng around him, but he could nol control his body to fight back The only thing he could do was to wviggle shghtly on the ground like a worm Al that moment, he felt unprecedented humiliation and despair.
Then, everyone's fists. feet, cold iron sticks, and even daggers all fell. For some reason, the pain in his body seemed to be magnified. Each hit was unbearable for him. August had gone through a lot of traming and suifered a lot of injunes. There were also a lot of scars on his body. Slowly, his skin and flesh became thicker and thicker, and his tolerance to pam was constantly increasing. But now, for some reason, his body seemed to be poisoned. and the pain was so intense that it was unbearable to him.
Could it be the efiect of the liquid injected by Denko just now?
He didnt even have a chance tothink carefully. The pain in his body grevv more and more intense. He felt dizzy and almost fainted.
After an unknown penod of time, his body was completely drenched in cold water. In a daze, he vaguely heard the conversation betvveen Denko and bishop.
'We should just kill him!"
“What's the rush, Mr. Denko? Isn't it too easy for him to die?" That's Bishops voice.
“VVhat do you think? There will be trouble if we keep him alive!"
"He made us go through so much pain. My legs and your fingers. It would be too easy for him to die like that."
Bishop snorted coldly and said slovvly, “In my opinion, we should throw him into the mountain and leave him to the wolves. Novv his legs are broken, but his mind is still clear. It's the most interesting to lel him feel the last despair.”
The man's suggestion was extremely VICIOUS. It made August feel cold all over as if the blood in her body was about to be frozen
How much Bishop hated him for Corning up with such a ruthless move!
Mr. Denko was silent for a moment. In the end, he sneered and expressed his agreement, "Bishop, this is indeed a good idea!"
Bishop said with a cold expression, "In the end, of course, we shall let him experience the pain before he dies."
Not long aiter, someone covered August's head and lifled him up. He did not know where they vvould take him. Aiter a long time, he vaguely heard the noise of discussion. Then, his body lightened and somebody threw him on the ground. His body fell to the ground with a Ihud, and he blacked out irom the pam and completely fainted.
At the same time, on the private plane heading abroad, there was a sudden scream.
Lucia woke up with a jolt, ripped off the blindfold worn over her eyes. and panted heavily. Her back was already wet with svveat.
"Lucia
Pauls worried voice came from the side. Lucids chest svvelled. She took a deep breath, and aiter a long time, she slovvly recovered.
"Lucia, what's wrong!?"
Paul s voice pulled her back to reality She shook her head, and said in shock, "No... Nothing.”
"Was It a mghtmare?"
Seeing the cold svveat on her forehead, Paul gently wiped it away. Nodding her head, Luciés heart pounded with fear.
ror some reason, she dreamed of August. The man looked at her with blood all over his body and said to her, ® Don't go. Don't go™
After waking up. Lucia remembered that she was on a plane flying abroad Although she had woken up and knew that what had just happened was a drearn, she still felt a little uneasy. The scene was too real and terrible.
She remembered Ihat she had promised August Ihat she wouldrit leave, but now she was eatmg her words and lett without lelling him
She felt uneasy Aftef restmg a while, she suddenly thought of something and reached for her pocket Howrvef, to hcf surpnse, the pockets were empty
Her heart sank. She quickly picked up the backpack nexl to her and rummaged through it. but she still couldnt find her phone
Paul asked cunously, *What are you looking tor?’
Lucia irovvned slight y. i lost my phone.”
She clearly remembered seeing her phonc in the waiting room Why was it gone?
A thought flashed through her mind. Lucia suddenly remembered that she had gone to the ladys room and asked Timothy and Janet to keep her phone beiore getting on the plane.
Taking a deep breath, she waiked to Timothy and Janet*s Seat and asked, "Do you have mommys phone”
Janet shook her head seriously and answered, 'No"
Timothy, who was next to her, paused and suddenly thought of somethmg He said, “Mom, I remember I put your phone on the bench in the terminal *
Lucids heart tightened. she asked, "And then?’
Could Timothy just ieave her phone there?
Timothy shook his head innocently and said, "I don't know either..."
Lucia seemed to have thought of something and immediately wenl to Cind Mandy. As soon as she walked up to her, she saw that Mandy was flipping through the album, and the photos on the screen showcd a man and a woman.
'Mandy..
Hearing her voice, Mandy subconsciously covered her phone. A trace of a nervous expression flashed across her face She smiled at Lucia and asked. “What's wrong. Lucia?"
Lucia took o dcep breath and asked, “Have you ever seen my phone? Timothy said that he leit it on the bench. Did you help me take it away?"
Mandy shook her hcad and answered. "No."
Then, aiter two seconds of pause, she asked, “Lost your phone, right?"
Lucia nodded. She felt annoyed ior some reason.
She walked away irom Mandy and recalled the photos she had just seen on the screen of her phone. There was a man and a woman in the photos. The woman was obviously Mandy. She didnt se the man clearly, but she (eft that he was familiar.
She took 2 deep breath and didnt think much of it. She quickly retumed to her Seat and (astened her Seat belt again.
Paul asked, How was it? Did you ind your phone?”
Lucia shook her head and said with some loss, “I think I let tin the terminal.
A dark gleam Aashed through Pauls eyes. He raised his hand and patted her shoulder to console her softly, fs fine. ru take you to buy a new sim card ater we land."
In Paul's view, it was rather a good thing that the phone was lost" because then Lucia could say goodbye to her it in Austos once and for all, and only then could he be al she had.
Lucia was stil 2 itl disappointed as she muttered to herself There are stil a lot of photos of Janet and Timothy on that phone Now 111 losathem ol.
ts ime * Paul hugged her shoulder and said, We'll have nore beautiful photos in the future ©
Heanng that, Lucia felt 2 bit more relieved. Hovvever, for some unknown reason, she felt a if something was still stuck in her mind, making her unseitied.
At the same time, Mandy, who was sitting not fr ahead, secretly let out a sigh of relief after hearing Paul and Lucia stop talkmg As long as Lucia did not mvestigate how the phone was lost, everything would be tine. She checked the time and) gradully calmed down
ay tha time, Bishop should have already deat with everything Everythmg included August.
