One of the men holding her slapped her and warned her viciously, “If you dare to shout again, I will kill you!”
Theresa’s head was turned to one side with the force of the slap, her cheek felt hot and painful. The taste of blood slowly spread in her mouth as she tried to speak, “Do you guys want money? As long as you let me go, I am willing to give you all the money I have right now.”
Theresa had no relatives in this country, let alone enemies, she couldn’t think of anyone who would kidnap her.
The only thing she could think of was that these men kidnapped her for money.
However, the men did not move with the mention of money. They warned her fiercely, “You’d better behave well. Don’t shout and yell. We are all tough guys, if you try to move, we will skin you alive. So, it is best if you behave well!”
Theresa felt despair. All the blood in her body seemed to have frozen instantly. They weren’t doing this for money? Then for what?
Theresa’s face looked ashen. Her tongue felt stiff in her mouth as she stammered for a long time before finally asking, “Can you tell me why are you kidnapping me? Even if it is to kill me, don’t you think I should know the reason?”
One of the men lost his patience and grabbed her by her jaw, “You fucking don’t understand human words or what? Why did we kidnap you? You will know when you fucking get there. Now, stop giving me that fucking bullshit!”
Theresa didn’t dare to ask anymore. She couldn’t dare to let these people hurt her again. She wasn’t alone now. She didn’t care for herself, but she had to take care of the baby in her belly.
Soon, Theresa was taken by them to an old fishing boat. There were fishing nets on the wooden board with dead fish in it. She didn’t know how long had they been rotting there. She was thrown into the small cabin of the boat. Everything there was dirty and smelt strongly of rotting fish.
Theresa was already sensitive to odors and prone to vomiting violently. As the fishy smell reached her nostrils, the acid in her stomach churned. She retched…
“Ew”
She couldn’t stand anymore. She leaned on the small square window and threw up violently.
The two men looked at her disgustingly but otherwise ignored her. There was no other door in the cabin, just that small window through which she could extend out her head but couldn’t get out of it. Even if she got out, she would have fallen into the sea.
Theresa kept her head extended out of the window, breathing the fresh air outside.
With her physical weakness and mental pressure, she could hardly be cool-headed about all this and just felt dizzy.
She didn’t know for how long she stood like that. Then, the cabin shook, followed by footsteps. Theresa’s nerves tensed. She immediately turned back and saw Phoebe standing at the cabin door. She wanted to say something, but she saw Mrs. Leslie held up by people behind her. Theresa’s eyes widened, “What do you want to do?”
Phoebe let out a sneering laugh, “Can’t you see what I want to do?”
She had nothing now. Cody didn’t want her now and Armand also hated her.
If this woman didn’t exist anymore, she could make Armand come back. It was all because of this woman!
She hated Theresa for taking Armand away and she hated Mrs. Leslie for disliking her.
Since Armand cared about these two so much, she had both of them kidnapped.
She gestured for the men to tie both Theresa and Mrs. Leslie up.
Theresa struggled, “Phoebe, have you gone crazy?”
Phoebe folded her arms in front of her chest and mocked with disdain, “Crazy? Hahaha, I am completely sane. I have nothing left now, so I am not afraid of anything. If I am not happy, then no one else should be happy!”
She walked into the small cabin, occasionally stepping on the dead shells on the ground and making a crunching sound. She stood in front of the tied-up Theresa and grabbed her by the chin, “You planned it, didn’t you?”
If she didn’t plan it and didn’t investigate her, then how did she know her past so clearly?
Theresa was confused, “What plan?”
Phoebe pinched her chin, “Stop acting!”
If it wasn’t her, who else could have investigated her through every possible way and let Armand know?
Who else had the reason to do that except Theresa?
“I really don’t know what you are talking about…” Theresa’s stammering voice spilled from her throat.
Phoebe didn’t believe it at all. She was sure that it was Theresa who did it.
Because no one except Theresa could benefit from this matter. After this, Armand hated her and naturally returned to Theresa.
Theresa still didn’t know what Phoebe was talking about. However, she knew one thing. Phoebe’s hatred for her was mostly because of Armand. Her heart tensed bitterly in agony.
This man, not only hurt her but was still causing her harm.
“The person you hate is me, why did you kidnap Mrs. Leslie? She is still ill. You and Armand used to be happy after all, don’t you have any mercy on your old love?”
The old love?
Armand kicked her away so decisively, what mercy did he have?
Phoebe slapped Theresa across her face wickedly. Disgusted by her young and beautiful face, her strength increased as she wished to disfigure Theresa and destroy her face! “Don’t worry, we will play an interesting game in a bit.”
After speaking, Phoebe laughed like a crazy and evil witch.
Theresa shivered. She kept thinking that Phoebe had gone crazy otherwise she wouldn’t have been so deranged. Mrs. Leslie couldn’t speak yet, so she could only glare at her fiercely, wishing to burn a hole through her with her gaze. Mrs. Leslie thought in her heart that this woman was indeed not a good person and had finally revealed her true colors. Just when Theresa was racking her brains to try and persuade Phoebe, another person was thrown into the cabin.
The woman was tied up, and she looked more disgraced than Theresa Gordon.
When Theresa saw the woman’s face, she was even more puzzled because she didn’t know this woman at all.
She felt that Phoebe Lewis must be crazy to kidnap so many people.
Phoebe’s hatred for this woman was deeper than her hatred for Theresa. This was because she was Cody’s wife, the woman who beat her and made her unable to get pregnant again. Was a woman still complete if she couldn’t give birth?
Did she still have a future?
Phoebe crouched down in front of the woman. She stroked the woman’s hair that covered her eyes, and she laughed evilly, “Do you still remember this scene?”
At that time she was beaten, it was this woman who asked someone to tie her up so she couldn’t resist. She told someone to beat her fiercely, and she could still remember the pain.
The woman spitefully stared at Phoebe, “Bitch, how dare you kidnap me, are you ready to die?”
“Heh.” Phoebe sneered, “I’m ready to die. But if I can bring you three to die with me together, I’m not at a loss. One for three, it’s worth it.”
The woman’s face twisted fiercely as she hadn’t expected Phoebe to do this without thinking the consequences.
“What do you dare to do to me? Aren’t you afraid that Cody will kill you?”
Phoebe laughed even louder when she heard the woman’s words, “You think Cody loves you? Who did he love? Does he know what love is? He married you because your family is rich. Your families are of equal status and it helps his family’s business. You are just a marriage alliance. Do you know what a marriage alliance is? It’s a marriage between the two of you that brings convenience to your families and is just mutually beneficial. What’s the difference between both of you and a commodity?”
She grabbed the woman’s hair, and the woman grimaced with pain.
“You were born into a rich family, so you see me as a good bully, don’t you? Hmm?!” She pulled hair harder and the woman was grunted in pain, “I’ll give you money. Hurry up and let go of me.” “Money?” Money didn’t matter to her now. She didn’t even have a future, so what did she need money for?
