Thud! A muffled sound of flesh getting pierced was heard.
Raegan felt nothing, her face having collided with a solid chest.
Her heart was racing, like it might jump out of her throat at any moment.
Strong arms wrapped tightly around her, protecting her entire body.
So tight that it was hard to breathe.
Raegan blinked and glanced at the man who was protecting her.
At that moment, she saw Mitchelâs panicked, scared, and concerned look mirrored in his dark eyes, with no hiding it.
He was really anxious about herâ¦
Mitchel slightly relaxed his hold and gave Raegan a thorough look from head to toe before murmuring reassuringly, âEverythingâs okay.
â
He believed Raegan was still in a state of shock.
Gently, his broad hand stroked her back as he softly asked, âAre you hurt anywhere?â
Raegan bit her lip and barely whispered back, âIâm alrightâ¦â
âAh! No!â A rough and loud scream echoed.
The bodyguards gave Lauren a few hard kicks and pushed her down firmly onto the ground.
But Lauren hadnât silenced herself yet, yelling desperately, âIâll kill you, you bitchâ¦â
Mitchelâs cold and distant handsome face briefly turned darker.
He turned and walked forward with his long and confident legs, one step at a time.
The light highlighted the shadows on Mitchelâs sharp features, making Lauren feel she was facing death itself.
Those dark, deep eyes seemed like a deep black hole as if they could overwhelm people in a moment.
Lauren trembled uncontrollably, but the drug twisted her into a strange form, resembling a dying snake.
Her rotten lips kept trembling, barely managed to whisper, âMitch⦠Ah! Ah!â
Mitchelâs glossy black leather shoes stepped over Laurenâs unharmed hand, the sole pressing down on all five fingers, crushing them with great force.
The surroundings became quiet.
Lauren could hear the sickening sound of her flesh and bones crunching, prompting her uncontrolled screa Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updatesâ¦
ms of desperation.
Only when Laurenâs five fingers were nearly crushed flat did Mitchelâs shoes finally lift away.
Mitchel, tall and wide, had a cold, merciless smile on his face as he looked down at Lauren.
âYou donât want to be taken away to the police station, right?â
Laurenâs body shook violently, yet she had heard his words.
The thought of staying away from the prison brought tears to her eyes as she nodded vigorously despite the pain.
She assumed as long as she wasnât imprisoned, sheâd have an opportunity to return and make a comeback.
At this, a slight smile appeared on Mitchelâs flawless face, giving off a cold yet charming vibe.
âYouâve made your choice.
Iâll respect it.
â
Mitchel then turned and commanded, âTake her to the Velvet Alley.
â
At the mention of Velvet Alley, Laurenâs hands and feet grew cold, and her eyes widened in horror! That was the gathering place for human trafficking.
In Ardlens, that was the very one place where the rule of law didnât apply.
Mitchel wanted to send her there, which was equivalent to Living hell!
