chapter-675

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Darkness was the most terrifying thing in this world. It was capable of consuming all the light and warmth of the universe, and shield all evil. It could make humans destroy the light within themselves and become the slaves of darkness.

Evil and cruelty were often hidden beneath the darkness.

The men who had abducted her had physically abused her by stomping down on her body and kicking her forcefully while wearing heavy combat boots.

Her limbs were tied together and she could not struggle even if she wanted to. She had no choice but to allow them to continue exerting violence on her. Her cries and shrieks of terror were of no use at all.

“Bitch, how dare you injure me…” the man barked while abusing her and hurling uncouth vulgarities at her.

Russia was a country where the ratio of gender was heavily imbalanced and there were more females than males, thus resulting in men being extremely rare and precious. Hence, men developed chauvinistic mindsets since they were little and often subjected females whom they did not respect to harsh and brutal treatment.

Hence, they were often harsh to females.

Wen Xinya curled up on the ground and listened to her grandfather’s words. Realizing how worried he was, her heart began to sink.

Even after the call ended, the man continued to abuse her.

The other two men began chatting with each other.

“Boss, what did the Wen Family say?”

“What else could they have said? This woman here is their only heiress, there’s no way they’d turn down my request for 100 million US dollars. Unless they want their family’s bloodline to cease. They didn’t reject me and agreed to transfer the money to our Swiss bank account.”

“I didn’t expect this bitch to be so rich. We managed to kidnap her so easily. No. 3 has got great judgment this time.”

“Don’t get too smug too soon. The Wen Family is wealthy and powerful. Be careful not to create unnecessary trouble. We’d better be as careful as we can. Contact that woman and find out more about the situation in the Wen Family.”

“Boss, rest assured! We’ve already verified that there’s nothing too unusual with the Wen Family. That’s why we decided to call them to ask for the ransom tonight. There are only six hours until daybreak. What else can the Wen Family do apart from paying us the ransom?”

The man in gray nodded and said, “Contact the person in charge of firearms. Once we get the money, get the weapons. We’ll sneak past the borders tomorrow by boat.”

Since Grandpa has already agreed to pay the ransom, the three abductors will definitely decide my fate soon. Wen Xinya tried her best to bear with the pain and paid attention to their conversation, but could not manage to hear them clearly.

The uncertainty and fear made her hopes diminish.

At this moment, the man in gray stopped No. 3 from beating Wen Xinya any further. “No.3, stop.”

Feeling indignant, No. 3 kicked her again and walked towards the man in gray and said, “Boss, look… we’re already going to get the ransom. Should we…”

While they spoke, No. 3 stared at Wen Xinya coldly and placed one hand on his neck, implying that he would kill her.

No. 3 spoke slowly and sounded rather insidious and excited. His Russian accent made him sound even more menacing and Wen Xinya understood what he meant. She shivered and her eyes widened in shock.

She had long known that they never planned to let her leave unscathed, from the moment they kidnapped her.

They had already decided to kill her right from the start.

Now that Grandpa has agreed to pay the ransom, they’ll definitely kill me.

She crawled on the ground and stared at the darkness consuming the light in the cave. The dim light shone on the disbelieving Wen Xinya.

Darkness often made one feel hopeless and terrified.

The gray man stared at Wen Xinya who was lying on the ground, seemingly deep in thought.

At this moment, another man walked towards them and said, “Boss, I’ve already communicated with them. We’ll be able to get the weapons by five tomorrow morning. They’ll also help us arrange the boat.”

No. 3 heaved a sigh of relief.

The man in gray said resolutely, “In that case, let’s not create any more trouble. We’ll let her stay alive until we get the ransom.”

Wen Xinya panted while the debilitating pain in her body made her lose her consciousness bit by bit. However, she momentarily felt safe and thankful, though it was only temporary.

However, she knew that the longer she lived, the greater the chances of her getting rescued were.

Si Yiyan!

She repeatedly chanted Si Yiyan’s name in her head while images of their memories flashed through her mind. She felt like it was the last bit of comfort!

I can’t take it anymore!

Hurry and come here!

Feeling rather indignant, No. 3 objected. “Boss, since we’re already going to get the ransom, why do we have to wait until we receive it to kill her?”

Wen Xinya’s heart wrenched up again. Her status as the Wen Family’s successor was not enough to scare them at all.

The man in gray said, “I’ve checked up on this woman’s background. Old Mr. Wen has been a businessman for decades. He’s known to be a resolute and ruthless man. Her maternal grandfather is outstanding too. He enjoys a great reputation in China and is termed the Confucius of the modern era and is almost regarded as a Saint. He’s known for his wisdom. They definitely won’t give the ransom unless she’s safe. We’d better wait a while.”

After hearing his words, No. 3 glared at Wen Xinya and walked over to kick her again. “Screw you, bitch. I’ll let you off for now. Once your family hands over the ransom, I’ll let you know what death feels like.”

A loud sound filled the air.

A sullen expression formed on the man in gray’s face and he walked towards Wen Xinya, picked up her exquisite apple-green mobile phone and began checking it again.

The men were incredibly shocked to see her mobile phone.

No one would have expected her to have two mobile phones. Neither did they expect that she would be able to hide such a small mobile phone in the pocket of her thin clothing.

Wen Xinya stared at her mobile phone in bewilderment and pangs of panic, fear, and horror engulfed her.

It was her trump card that gave her the assurance that Si Yiyan would save her.

At this moment, it became the amulet that would end her life.

No. 3 asked, “Boss, this mobile phone…”
