Chapter 180 Clang, clang, clang! The door lock suddenly emitted a violent noise.
The person outside seemed intent on breaking in.
Thea was covered in goosebumps. Her hand went limp, and her phone dropped to the ground with a clang- The commotion outside clearly paused for a moment Then, an even more violent sound of the door being forced open ensued.
At this point, she could no longer worry about alerting the enemy. With trembling hands, she first composed a text message to the police and then shouted for help at the top of her lungs, anyone there!! Help! Someone is trying to break in illegally. Help!" However, the thunder and the rain drowned out her voice.
Turning around, she smashed the glass on the floor, picked up the largest shard, and clutched it tightly in her hand. With icy eyes, she stared fixedly at the shuddering wooden door.
In the end, the rickety wooden door could not withstand the assault from the outside. With a loud bang, it was pushed open.
The man was wearing a raincoat and was panting heavily.
He didn't look tall, in fact, he was even half a head shorter than Thea.
During a flash of lightning and a roll of thunder, Thea got a clear look at his face and was instantly even more horrified This person was none other than the security guard stationed at the factory.
When she had seen him during the day, he had seemed like a perfectly honest man.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThea tried her best to compose herself. "What... What are you doing? Do you have something you want to discuss withOr are you not satisfied with your current pay? It doesn't matter. We can talk about it. I'm the daughter of a prominent family in Key Biskane. My husband is the renowned entrepreneur, Nicolas Hendrix. If you have any difficulties, I can help you resolve them." "Pilt." The security guard spat and broke into a sinister laugh. "Do you really think I'll believe that? If you were truly srich young lady, the wife of a CEO, would you cto this place? "Good girl, you're so beautiful Why don't we get together in the future? You're taking over this factory, right? I'll help you. I'll guard the door for you. Look at how strong I am. I'm definitely match for you." As he spoke, the security guard advanced with a menacing grin. "Be good. If you make a He was holding a fruit knife in his hand, clearly having cprepared.
Thea's whole body went numb, and her stomach churned violently.
She continued to reason with him, "You're committing a crime. If you actually do something, I'll call the police to arrest you even if it costsmy life. The police are already on their way here. If you leave now, I can pretend this never happened" The security guard seemed oblivious to her words and just kept muttering to himself. "My wife ran away. The women in the factory all have kids and aren't good- looking. They can't compare to you. You're like a fairy. You probably don't have any kids of your own. Only a woman like you is worthy of me. You'd better be a clean woman, or I'll definitely kill you. definitely will." 09:39 Mon, Nov 4 Chapter 180 Thea finally realized that this man was mentally ill! Obviously, reasoning with him was futile.
@K 94% She backed away en by step. After luring him to the innermost part of the room, she suddenly grabbed a water bottle and splashed the contents onto the security guard's face. Taking advantage of the moment when he couldn't open his eyes, she dashed towards the door. Just as she reached the door, she was grabbed by the hair by the man chasing after her.
The man, reeking of alcohol, pressed his body against hers and roughly dragged Thea onto the bed. His hideous grin looked terrifying in the dark.
Thea screamed and jabbed at the man randomly h the glass shard in her hand.
The man's hand was already dripping with blood, but he had no intention of letting go.
He was also a bit angry. He grabbed Thea's hair with one hand and slapped her hard with the other.
Thea felt dizzy from the slap. By the tshe regained her senses, she had already been thrown onto the bed. In her despair, out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly spotted an ashtray on the bedside table.
She groped for it slowly and, when the man was unbuttoning her clothes, smashed it hard onto his head. The man froze, looking at her in disbelief. Then, he slowly slumped and fell to the ground.
Blood began to spread, and Thea was trembling all over.
She seemed to have killed someone.
Just then, footsteps suddenly sounded at the door, Thea was terrified to the extreme. She looked at the door tremblingly, never expecting that the person who appeared would be Nicolas.
He looked a bit disheveled. His usually neat and proper suit was now speckled with mud. His hair was wet, and the rain trickled down his prominent nose.
"Nicolas," Thea said in a daze. She even wondered if she was dreaming.
Perhaps everything that had happened tonight was just a dream She got out of bed barefoot, her clothes still loose, but she couldn't care about that now.
If it was really a dream, at least in the dream, she could see Nicolas who could give her a sense of security.
Nicolas watched in disbelief.
He was also filled with regret.
It hadn't been easy for him to locate Thea, and once he did, he rushed over without delay.
He hadn't expected this place to be so remote.
There were too many trees and too few open areas. Even helicopters couldn't get in.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDarwin had suggested that he cback to look for her in a few days, but he couldn't wait. Chapter 180 He wanted to clear things upwith Thea When the car broke down halfway, he continued on foot. By the the reached the factory, it was midnight. He noticed that the security booth with the lights on was empty, and a loud noise was coming from the second floor of a nearby small building He knew then that something must have happened to Thea.
When she threw herself into Nicolas's warm embrace, Thea couldn't help but her eyes well up. "What should I do? I'm so scared. I think I killed someone." Nicolas held her tightly. "Don't be afraid. You didn't kill anyone. It was self-defense. You're not dreaming either. All of this is real. I'm real too." A sudden clap of thunder from outside jolted Thea out of her daze.
She stared blankly at Nicolas, opened her mouth, but tears fell first..
He actually came, Was he here for her? Neither of them noticed that the man on the ground moved his fingers and slowly started to get up, By the tNicolas noticed, it was too late. The man raised his long knife, and a cold glint flashed in the darkness.
Thea also keenly sensed a chill from behind.
Nicolas immediately shielded her behind him and then kicked the man's hand away *Help! Help!" Thea also took this opportunity to shout for help, finally waking up Eric.
The police message she had The police message she had sent earlier also took effect. A group of police officers rushed in, and the man was quickly subdued to send was also effective. A group of police officers rushed in and the man was quickly subdued. Eric was filled with guilt. He raised his hand and slapped himself twice. "It's all my fault. I'm such an idiot. I can't even handle such a small matter. Miss Rowland, are you okay? If anything happens to you, I really His eyes were red, filled with nervousness and guilt.
Thea quickly stopped his actions. "It's not your fault. No one could have expected this Now, let's think about how to handle this situation so it doesn't blow up."
The fact that the police had cto the factory today would surely spread like wildfire tomorrow. By then, who knew what speculations would be flying around outside. People with ulterior motives would surely make an issue out of this.
Just thinking about the aftermath gave Thea a headache.
Eric gave Nicolas Hendrix a curious look and then quickly stepped m forward gratefully. "Sir, thank you so much for your heroic rescue. May I ask how I should address you?" WW 09:39 Mon. Nov 4
