Female Novel
Chapter 2792
Rain could feel her patience being worn thin because of Mandy.
She intended to probe Mandy into confessing her and Leia's crime.
It would be difficult to deal with Leia if Mandy refused to expose them.
The main issue was that Mandy and Matsyh were already involved in an illicit affair, and the money inMatsyh's account appeared to be legitimate. With just the illicit affair and the monetary exchange, thepolice would not have enough grounds to apprehend anyone.
As for the money that had been transferred from Mandy's account to Leia's, it would be even moredifficult to use it as evidence.
They were friends, after all. Financial transactions between friends could not be considered illegalactivities, right?
That was why Rain kidnapped Mandy.
However, Mandy was not a fool either. She continuously revealed immoral acts she had committed,trying to find out Rain's true identity.
She did not mention a word about any illegal activities.
Rain sneered, "You won't talk, huh? Mandy Sanders, a single woman who lives alone. Your source ofincome... Men. You used to be a citizen of A City, but you were adopted by an American couple whenyou were young and obtained American citizenship. The couple who adopted you passed away threeyears ago. Now, you're an orphan again. Am I right?"
Mandy trembled slightly, but her voice remained calm. What was the big deal if her background hadbeen uncovered?
The information was not confidential to begin with. It was normal for it to be easily uncovered.
What Mandy feared were the people who had kidnapped her.
She did not know who they were and who sent them. After Mandy was slapped in the face, sherealized that they might torture her to extract the truth by any means necessary.
There was no way she could bear that kind of suffering.
"So what? I merely slept with your man for one night. There's no need for you to treat me like I'm yourrival." Mandy clenched her jaw. She did not want to go to prison.
Rain nodded repeatedly. She laughed instead of getting angry. "Alright. Ms. Sanders, don't blame mefor being rude if you still refuse to talk. I have many ways to make you wish for death while keeping youtrapped in endless fear."
A chilling sensation crept up Mandy's spine, sending shivers down her back as she trembled with fear.Mandy replied, "It's illegal to imprison and kidnap someone. You won't get away with it when I'm out. Iwon't press charges if you release me now!"
Rain noticed that Mandy was actually quite clever, even though she was a little naive...
She gestured for her subordinates to lift Mandy up.
Two men, one on each side, lifted Mandy without uttering a word.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!" Mandy continued to scream as Rain stuffed a cloth into her mouth.
She did not enjoy interrogating people.
This was something the police should do, but how could they possibly interrogate Mandy without anyevidence?
Therefore, Rain could only assist the police in gathering some evidence.
With a cloth gagged in her mouth, Mandy was unable to speak. She was dragged away by the twomen.
Rain followed behind and said, "I don't know if you'll ever have a chance to escape, but I rememberyou live alone. No one will notice you've been kidnapped."
Fear overwhelmed Mandy's heart.
She was right. Even if she died in the apartment she rented, it would probably take the stench of herdecaying body for someone to discover her.novelbin
She had been kidnapped, but no one knew. Who would be able to save her?
Mandy thought of Leia, but her phone had been confiscated when she was forced into the car.
When she was on the way to the airport, she was worried that a warrant would be issued by the policeat any moment. That was why she rented a car and drove to the airport. There were no drivers oranyone else...
Who would realize that she was kidnapped? Was there anyone who could save her?
Mandy was taken to a warmly heated room and tied to a chair.
Rain picked up a pipe and aimed it at Mandy's head. "Ms. Sanders, I'll give you one more chance. Howdid you get that money? What did they make you do?"
Mandy whimpered.
Rain whispered in her ear, "Are you seriously gonna tell me that you got that cash by sleeping aroundwith men? I'm talking about the largest money transaction you've received. What did you do to get that
money?"
She pulled the cloth out of Mandy's mouth.
It took a moment for Mandy to catch her breath. How was she going to explain this? She could not!
Mandy stubbornly persisted, "I already told you that I got the money by sleeping around with men!"
"Fine. You're going to face the consequences for not talking." Rain stuffed the cloth back into her mouthand walked to the corner where there was a faucet.
The room had a separate heating system, but it was disguised as a water room.
Rain instructed the renovation contractor to install it that way when she moved in.
The others had no idea what the purpose of this room was, but she knew this room had a significantpurpose.
It was one of the methods of coercion the Island of Despair had used before. It was more effective thanall those injections. It was capable of breaking down a person's psychological defenses.
Drops of water would fall on the person's forehead at a consistent frequency while they were trapped indarkness.
The power of the dripping water might be small, but it could wear away even a stone. A person'spsychological defenses would collapse with every drop of water while trapped in such a darkenvironment.
Rain had never used this method before. It was the first time she was employing it.
Their boss often said that leaving the Island of Despair meant living a normal life. The methods used bythe Island of Despair should be avoided whenever possible.
Today marked the inaugural use of this technique!
Rain turned on the faucet. Then, she adjusted the water flow to its minimum. Then, drop by drop, thewater fell on Mandy's forehead.
As she listened to her muffled cries, Rain smiled and instructed her subordinate, "Warm up the room alittle. Make sure Ms. Sanders doesn't catch a cold."
"Got it," replied the subordinate. He cranked the room's heating temperature to the maximum.
The warmth from the heater enveloped the room, while the water droplets slowly soaked Mandy'sbody...
Rain shook her head, knowing that anyone would eventually succumb to this.
She glanced at her subordinate and signaled, "Leave one person to watch her here. Switch shifts everyhour. I'll return in four hours."
She deliberately said these words for Mandy to hear.
Rain had already given her a chance, but Mandy did not appreciate it. The next opportunity would onlycome after four hours.
After that, Rain turned around and left.
While Mandy was being blindfolded and with her field of vision obscured, her other senses had beenheightened.
Even though it was just a small water droplet, she felt as though there was a substantial amount ofwater drenching her hair.
However, it did not seem like it either. It took a long time for her hair to get wet...
Mandy took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down, but it was impossible.
The slow infiltration of the water only intensified her fear. Would it be long before she was completelysubmerged?
She wanted to kick her feet and check if there was accumulated water on the floor. However, her legswere tied up. There was not even a chance to kick!
Fear enveloped Mandy. Still, what was the use of being afraid anyway? There was nothing she coulddo now!
She did not even have the chance to call for help or negotiate with Rain.
Mandy remembered Rain mentioning that she would return in four hours.
Mandy felt despair, enduring this torment that eroded her nerves in this pitch-black environment,thinking that she would not be able to last for an hour.
