Chapter 1558 A Close Call
The burly man grinned even as he rubbed his cheek, which stung from Sonia’s vicious slap. He muttered tellingly,
‘‘You’re a fierce one, huh. Just wait until I teach you a lesson.’‘
Sonia gulped nervously, immediately regretting her earlier decision to strike him. Infuriating him merely worsened
the situation.
As the man slowly approached Sonia, she instinctively shuffled backward.
To her surprise, she backed into a couch. The man grabbed Sonia’s shoulder and elicited a horrified shriek from
her, yet she could not break away from his grasp.
Alas, she had nowhere to turn. To Sonia’s horror, the man used his free hand to cover her mouth and shove her
onto the couch. He then mercilessly pinned her down with his body before she could sit up.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSonia screamed and flailed her limbs. Her actions initially addled her kidnapper, but he slowly gained the upper
hand. He held both her wrists in one hand while his legs pinned her body down, and his other hand reached
downwards to tug at Sonia’s dress.
Sonia immediately panicked and screamed, ‘‘Hel—’‘
The word had barely left her mouth when the man lunged forward and covered her mouth. She struggled to break
free from him and tried to scratch his face with her nails, but he easily caught her hand and twisted it, pressing
Sonia harder against the couch.
‘‘Keep quiet, or you’ll only suffer even more,’‘ he threatened while shooting Sonia a menacing glare.
He squeezed her arm so hard that cold sweat beaded on her forehead. Suddenly, he raised his hand and slapped
her across the cheek.
A red handprint instantly appeared on Sonia’s face. Blood even trickled out of the corner of her split lip. Her cheek
and lips swelled painfully, and Sonia shot her kidnapper a furious glare.
The man smiled smugly at her wretched state. ‘‘Haha! This is payback for your slap earlier!’‘
He slapped her again, and the impact sent Sonia’s face whipping around to the other side. She tasted blood in her
mouth while half of her face suffered from numbing pain. Still, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath before
taunting, ‘‘I guess you’re not afraid of dying at all!’‘
The man gritted his teeth and hissed, ‘‘Shut up.’‘
He did not expect her to be a general’s daughter instead of just some wealthy heiress.
As such, losing their lives was a distinct possibility.
As the thought crossed his mind, the kidnapper suddenly froze in shock. I forgot to tell my boss about her identity!
He hastily slammed Sonia’s head into the wall.
Right before Sonia blacked out, she eked out hoarsely, ‘‘Harvey…’‘
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen the kidnapper noticed that she had gone silent, he immediately released Sonia for fear of killing her. Then, he
took out his phone and made a call.
Meanwhile, a troubled Lorraine rubbed her temples while sitting in the backseat of a moving car. She asked her
subordinate in the front passenger seat, ‘‘Do you think Sonia was telling the truth?’‘
She remained uneasy because the bag was far too important to her. Although she initially thought of having the
chauffeur and her subordinate retrieve the bag, she eventually decided to do things herself, lest there were more
mishaps.
Her subordinate replied, ‘‘I’m not trying to be pessimistic here, Ms. Lorraine, but it’s hard to tell. They’re wealthy,
but your bag is really expensive too. How could she simply dump it at home?’‘
His expression grew serious as he added, ‘‘But don’t worry, Ms. Lorraine. If she tricked us, we’ll teach her a lesson
so harsh she’d wish to die instead.’‘
After all, illegal immigration was a severe crime too.
