A text message suddenly appeared on the screen of Maisie’s cell phone,
Maisie retracted her gaze, picked up the phone, and read the content of the text message. Her gaze then
changed instantly as she stood up.
She ran out of her room in a hurry and ran into Kennedy.
Kennedy asked her immediately, “Zee, what’s the matter?”
“My dad is involved in an accident.” Maisie did not have the time to explain too much and ran out of the
office
Kennedy saw her look flustered, and his expression changed instantly when he heard Maisie say that
Stephen was involved in an accident.
I should go and tell Mr. Goldmann about this.’
Maisie came to the underground parking lot and saw that her father’s car door was open. Her father was
lying on the steering wheel motionless.
“Dad!” She was about to walk over to check him out when she was stunned with a taser. She then saw
the face of the man who stunned her before she completely lost consciousness,
‘This man…
She eventually dropped slowly to the ground.
The other two masked men shoved her into a van while the man with the taser pulled his cap down,
dashed to the front passenger seat, and got into the van.
The van’s door was closed, and the van drove away at high speed.
In the Underground Freeway’s black market…
Maisie woke up gradually in numbness, only to find that she was lying on a cold iron-frame bed with her
hands and feet locked in chains.
‘What happened!?’
She recalled going to the parking lot to find her father, and then…
“That man!
She looked around the dimly lit room. The mottled and yellow walls were covered with newspapers.
There was only a table and an iron bed in the room and no other furniture.
She sat up sideways, pulled the chain, and realized it was locked.
The door opened all of a sudden, and a few masked men walked inside.
Maisie became vigilant subconsciously. “Who are you?”
“You don’t need to know who we are. We’re just people who get paid by accomplishing tasks for others.”
The man in colorful clothes, who was leading the team, motioned to the men beside him, and two men
walked toward her and pressed her against the bed.
“What are you going to do? If what you want is money, I can give it to you!” Maisie struggled as fear
spread like wildfire within her.
She realized that she might have been set up.
‘Who the hell is it!?’
“Don’t be nervous, we won’t do anything to you.” The man walked over to the bed, stretched out his
hand, and caressed across her fair cheek. “Tsk, tsk, tsk, what a beauty.”
Maisie’s pupils constricted slightly. She kept calming herself down inwardly and said, “No matter how
much the other party is paying you, I can double the amount.”
“Hehe, we don’t need the money.”
The man retracted his hand, put his hand into his pocket, and took out a syringe.
Maisie’s expression changed slightly. “What are you going to do to me!?”
“Hold her down.” The man ignored her question, and the men beside her pressed her against the bed
tightly. The person holding the syringe then pulled her hand out.
“Stop, stop-Ah!”
The needle pierced into her arm, and her muscles did not relax under such a tense condition. When the
man injected the cold liquid into her, the pain caused the whole arm to become numb.
“Let go of me…” Maisie could only feel that the blood all over her body began to heat up, while all her
senses and perception became abnormal due to the drug that was flowing in her body.
The man chuckled. “Good girl, this thing won’t kill you. It’s just that it’s a little addictive.”
Maisie could not stay calm when she heard the word ‘addictive’. “You d*ckhead, let me go!”
Maisie gnashed her teeth, but not only was she unable to exert any strength, but she even started to
sweat in her palms. She felt very light, and under the ecstasy’s effects, she felt that the scenes around
her had begun to change. She could not hear what they were saying and felt that the whole ceiling was
swirling.
