Female Novel
Chapter 1618
"This is what I need." Luca was calm. She knew that pissing off the kidnappers would not do her anygood. Nonetheless, she wanted to fight for more opportunities to see if she could find out moreinformation from them.
The man rolled his eyes and mocked her. "You're being kidnapped, you're not on vacation."
"I know. You can let me die of thirst and tell your boss that I died because I was too weak to withstandyour beatings." Luca looked at the hideous mask on his face without any fear.
"Will you die if you drink two fewer glasses of water? Do you think I'm a three-year-old child?" The manpinched her chin. If he was not afraid of hurting her again, he would have already taken action.
"I was beaten until my forehead bled yesterday and I'm very weak now. You can refuse to meet mydemands. However, when the person behind you asks you for a handover, you need to figure out howyou're going to explain it to him." Luca still appeared tough even though her chin was being gripped bythe kidnapper.
The man listened to her threats. His eyes could be seen through the mask. His gaze was gloomy andterrifying. "What I hate most in my life is being threatened, especially by women."
When the other man heard him, he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Forget about it. Money ismore important."
"I've kidnapped so many people and it's the first time I've met someone with so many demands. Howare you okay with it?" The man turned around to look at his companion. He was a kidnapper, not abutler.
"I've kidnapped many and it's not the first time I've seen a woman act so calm. If you don't want to do it,I'll do it," another man said angrily as he was too lazy to talk to Luca.
Luca listened to their conversation and thought to herself that these two men were habitual offenders.Once she escaped, she was determined to remember all of their details so that she could assist thepolice and stop them from harming others.
The men ignored Luca and walked out.
She looked at the closed door and kept track of the time in her heart.
Since they had to keep guard of her, she was not going to make things easy for them.
After a while, Luca estimated that 15 minutes had passed. She stood up and walked to the bathroomattached to the bedroom.
It took a lot of effort for every step she took. As soon as she took a step, the iron balls would roll, bedragged against the floor, and make a loud sound.
After a few seconds, the door of the room was pushed open and a man walked in. "What are youdoing?"
Luca did not turn around. She walked toward the direction of the bathroom and said, "I want to go tothe bathroom."
The man squinted and watched her walk step by step with difficulty. He did not pity her. "Don't you daretry anything,"
"I'm tied up. I can't even go to the toilet? What, do you want me to relieve myself on the bed? Will youclean me up, then?" Luca knew that these men only cared about money and did not want any trouble,which was why she said what she said.
The man was a little impatient as he listened to the sound of the iron balls grinding against the floor. Hestood by the door, watched her walk into the bathroom, and warned her. "Don't close the door."
"If I don't close the door, won't you see everything? It's just a bathroom. What can I do? Moreover, Ihave these two iron balls on my feet." Luca pretended to struggle as she dragged the iron balls into thebathroom.
The man saw that she needed to put in some work to move the iron balls and wondered if she wasreally as agile as others said she was.novelbin
‘Looking at how she's acting now, it doesn't look like it...'
Luca closed the bathroom door after she dragged the two balls in.
She did not stay in the bathroom for long. A minute later, there was the sound of flushing from thebathroom and she dragged the iron balls out again.
The man squinted and stepped forward to check the rope behind her. He found that there was noloosening or signs of wear.
"Don't try anything." He warned her again.
"How could I try anything in my current situation?" Luca slowly walked back to the bed and sat down onit.
Her calm appearance was as though she was there as a guest. She did not make any noise except forthese disturbances. The other times, she was not particularly bad.
‘Is she not at all worried about the situation she's in?'
"You're so calm. Aren't you worried?" the man could not help but ask.
Luca smiled and said, "I have nothing to worry about, but you guys. You're the ones who should worry."
"What do you mean?" The man's heart skipped a beat when he heard what she said. He had a badfeeling but he could not show it to her.
"You'll find out eventually. I heard that you've kidnapped a lot of people. Since you're safe and soundnow, all of the jobs you did before this were successful, right? The police never bothered you?" Lucaleaned on the bedside leisurely.
She was still a little dizzy after she bled the day before.
"Nonsense. We're professionals, and the police are useless. They can't do anything to us," the mansaid rudely while he expressed his contempt for the police.
Luca smiled and said, "Yes, the police can't do anything to you. However, you kidnapped me. Now,other people besides the police are after you."
"Who?" the man answered her subconsciously.
"I'm a friend of the Crawford and Mallory families. Mm, there's also an organization behind me. Whenthey find out that I'm missing, they'll search for me. No matter where you hide me, they'll find me in theend. By then, misfortune won't be upon me but you." Luca calmly mentioned all the people who couldhelp her.
She was not sure about the Crawford and Mallory families.
Her only hope was that Luke would help find her because as long as he was involved, Percy Mallorywould certainly help out too.
Even if they did not help, the people from the Island of Despair would soon find out that she waskidnapped. She hoped that the people in the stronghold had their eye on the news. Else, it might take a
couple of days for them to find out that she had disappeared and she would have to suffer for a fewmore days.
"Oh, go ahead and blow your own trumpet. The Crawford and the Mallory families? Why don't you saythat you're the president's best friend, then?" When the man heard her mention the Mallory family, heimmediately thought that she was bragging.
After all, the person who hired them to kidnap her was closely associated with the Mallory family.
"Are you sure that I'm bragging? Could it be that the person who wanted you to kidnap me hassomething to do with either of these families?" Luca stated the obvious. She could not see the man'sexpression, so she could only guess from his tone.
He expressed his disbelief without any hesitation.
As such, Luca guessed that the person behind her kidnapping was Pierre.
Since her return to A City, the only people she had offended were the research professors at work.However, they were all nerds and would never dare to do such things.
Pierre was the obvious answer.
The man's expression softened. He did not expect that she was trying to get information from him. Hesaid sternly, "Do you think that a woman like you can be related to the Crawford and Mallory families?Are you imagining things?"
