Lured into the Abyss

Married for two years, my husband showered me with immense affection. A video, however, shattered my existing happiness.

As an anonymous 블랙mailer relentlessly extorted me, I unexpectedly disc...

Chapter 567 A glimmer of hope

Sister S reached out and rubbed my knees. The warmth from her hands relieved the swelling and pain in my knees a little.

She asked slowly, "You have an old injury on your leg. It must have been seven years ago, right?"

My body froze, and I was shocked.

How would she know?

Sister S's voice gradually deepened. "Lan Shan, tell me honestly, what is your relationship with Polar Day?"

Midnight Sun? Is that someone's code name?

I was filled with doubts and was completely out of touch with the situation.

"That snowy night, Jiri gave you the chip for safekeeping. He disappeared after that, and you were the last person to see him. Where is he? Where is the chip he gave you now?"

Sister S’s questioning made me vaguely understand something.

Seven years ago, the sneaky man I met on a snowy night was the "polar day" that Sister S mentioned.

It seems that this "Polar Day" must have taken Sister S's things and ran away, so Sister S kept tracking him down.

But I passed out that night and when I woke up there was nothing left on my body.

I gritted my teeth and denied, "I don't even know who 'Polar Day' is. He stole things from you, and he injured my leg. I'm a victim too. You've got the wrong guy!"

"You're still stubborn!"

Sister S was paranoid and believed that I was lying. Before I could explain, I felt a sharp pain in my ankle.

"ah--"

I screamed, and I could feel Sister S pressing the ice hard on the old injury on my ankle.

On that snowy night, I hit my knee on a rock and sprained my ankle. The pain was in my right leg. I felt uncomfortable every time it was cloudy or rainy and couldn't stand the slightest bit of cold.

Seeing me trembling with pain, Sister S showed no mercy and threatened me: "You are stubborn and not afraid of death, but aren't you afraid that your loved ones will be hurt? For example, your mother Mingsi, your sister Lan Feng, and your sister's child Lan Xiaoyu..."

She actually investigated my background so thoroughly!

I flew into a rage and yelled at her, "You're a psychopath! I told you, I don't know anything about chips!"

I gasped twice, no longer caring about the pain in my leg, and used all my strength to warn her: "If you dare to hurt my family, I will never let you go!"

Sister S sneered and said with contempt, "You can't even protect yourself right now, so you can only rage helplessly."

As soon as she finished speaking, her cell phone rang suddenly.

As she loosened her grip, the ice on my ankle slipped off, the pain suddenly eased, and I collapsed to the ground exhausted.

Sister S stood up, her voice a little further away from me, and ordered her men: "Shut her mouth! Don't let her make a sound!"

The man did as he was told and stuffed a piece of cloth into my mouth. At this point, I didn't even have the strength to resist.

The woman answered the phone with an extremely respectful attitude: "Sir."

I suddenly realized that this "Mr." might be the big boss behind the scenes and the superior of Sister S.

Was it this gentleman who asked Sister S to kidnap me?

I listened quietly, not knowing what the "gentleman" said, but Sister S's tone became shocked.

She asked hesitantly, "Release her? Sir, are you really going to let her go? She might be the only clue that can help us find the chip!"

Hope grew in me that maybe I could still get out of here.

The "gentleman" seemed determined to let me go. I heard Sister S respond in a low voice, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
