Chapter 1106 I’ll Bring Her Back
“What do you mean? Are we truly powerless?” Zack couldn’t believe it. He hadn’t seen Evan for years, but he’d managed to climb up to such a high position abroad. It was simply too incredible.
Why didn’t he notice Evan’s talent for being a boss of the underworld before? Zack’s impression of him was still stuck at the time when Evan followed them around like a lost puppy.
The atmosphere fell silent, and Gilbert looked at Alec. Even if he didn’t want to, he had to speak up. “Alec, you’re the only one who can save Jenny now. I beg you…Please bring her back.”
Alec had been waiting for Gilbert to say that. He replied with a smile, “Even if you didn’t say anything, I would still bring her back.”
“Thank you—”
“However, I hope that after Jenny comes back, you will respect her choices. ” Especially when it came to their relationship-he didn’t want Gilbert to voice any objections.
After all, in Jenny’s eyes, Gilbert was still very important. She would be stuck between a rock and a hard place if he kept disagreeing.
Gilbert naturally understood the meaning behind his words and smiled bitterly. “Don’t worry. I have never disrespected Jenny’s choice.”
Even though he didn’t like Alec before, he’d only advised Jenny against becoming Alec’s girlfriend and hoped she would consider someone else. However, he never tried to stop her from doing anything.
“That’s good, then? Alec nodded in satisfaction.
Gilbert and Zack left, and Alec didn’t stay at home but went to the company. He had to go to another country, but before he left, he had to make sure that Faust Group was stable. He didn’t want any problems to arise while he was abroad.
Nightfall came quietly, but the lights in the CEO’s office of Faust Group had yet to turn off.
Far away on an island in a country called Monaerim, the sun had just risen. Jenny had taken a nap on the plane. When she woke up, the plane had already landed on the island.
“Let’s get off the plane. We’ve reached our destination.” Jenny didn’t know where she was, but she didn’t ask and followed Howard off the plane.
She didn’t see Evan and was a little worried. “Where’s Evan?”
She no longer said his name with a sense of kinship. In her heart, he was no longer the brother figure and dear friend he once was.
“Boss has been sent to the hospital. As for you…” Howard glanced at her and thought that since Jenny already knew everything, she probably wouldn’t have a good attitude toward Evan in the future. He decided that before Evan woke up, he would teach her a lesson and make sure she knew what she should and shouldn’t do.
“Bring her to the castle and lock her up. Don’t let her run away before Boss wakes up,” Howard ordered.
If Jenny had known what was good for her and behaved appropriately, she wouldn’t have become a prisoner. Unfortunately, she’d been uncooperative and far too indomitable.
Howard kept Jenny locked in a dark dungeon and didn’t give her any food. Time passed by from seconds to minutes and then to days. Jenny was so starved that she’d lost all sense of time. She had
no idea how long she’d spent in that wretched dungeon.
Was it one day? Or was it ten days?
Jenny didn’t know, but she knew that she was about to die. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Suddenly, with a clanging sound, the iron door opened. Jenny thought Howard had come since he often visited and asked her the same few questions every single time. She’d grown tired of hearing those repetitive questions.
“Will you stay willingly now?”
“Do you agree to be Evan’s woman?”
“Do you submit?”
“What a lunatic,” Jenny thought disdainfully.
But as she struggled to lift her head, she saw that the person who had come was not Howard but an extremely beautiful woman. Jenny didn’t know her, but the woman was clearly full of hostility toward her.
The next second, the woman suddenly stepped forcefully on Jenny’s wrist. The sharp pain instantly made her snap out of her dazed state.
“Who are you?” Jenny asked in a hoarse voice.
She was surprised to hear her own voice after so long. It sounded so unfamiliar.
