Reckless Marriage Unyielding Love

Chapter 85

Deidre also hailed from the military base and had exceptionally advanced logical thinking. Hiding from them

would be a piece of cake for her, as she understood them as well as they understood her. It would be impossible

to figure her out using conventional methods.

"Switch all the screens to show footage of Deidre driving Mikayla away from the beginning? Carlos commanded,

his eyes piercing and his aura stommy.

They were racing against time, yet he needed to monitor eight to nine LCD screens concurrently. Juliet couldn't

imagine what it was like,

"Pinpoint the location of the phone she used and when its signal was last detected!" Carlos commanded.

Abiting hale blew into every corner of an abandoned old warehouse. Under the dim light, several men stood

nearby, spectating a feud between tw

WOMEN.

Mikayla was curled up on the ground with both hands and feet tied together. Nonetheless, her beauty was

unmarred by her disheveled state and instead made one feel pity toward her.

Her expensive clothes wrapped around her voluptuous figure, sparking the lust of the men around her. Their

minds were already imagining what it would be like to have her beneath them. mention of the child. However,

her heart twinged. If Deidre had spoken the truth, she

She clearly saw maternal love reflected in Deidre's eyes at thecould only admit that Carlos acting was far

too convincing

Besides, Carlos had no doubt been shy when he kissed her for the first time. But Deidre had just said that she

bore his child. Isn't he going to do anything to her if he finds out? Mikayla mised.

"Are you surprised?" Deidre asked, paying close attention to every minute detail of her expression. She lifted her

chin with a triumphant smirk.

"Yes, indeed!" Mikayla turned away. She disliked being subject to the whims and fancies of others. "Why won't he

marry you if both of you share a child?"

Deidre withdrew her now empty hand and wiped it disdainfully as she straightened. At five feet seven inches,

she towered over Mikayla, making her feel oppressed.

"It's none of your business?" she retorted.

"Then why did you tie nie up? Why not just ask Carlos to take responsibility?" Mikayla replied calmly, hoping to

stall for as much tas possible in hopes that someone would save her. It didn't matter who it was. Her bound

hands exerted strength discreetly in an attempt to break free.

"Don't bother. You can't ever be free from the knot | tied." Deidre glanced at her dainty wrist scornfully. ‘She's a

weak and powerless rich young lady, as expected she thought.

Mikayla could feel the mildly boiling sting of her scrape wounds on her hands. Ultimately, she gave in and stated,

"You have to understand that I'm not your romantic rival, Deidre. Without me, there would still be thousands of

women you'd have to contend with. Please be sensible and consider why Carlos didn't marry you!"

"lI admire you for being so calm in such a dire situation" Deidre looked down at Mikayla domineeringly. "Don't

worry. No one will cto your aid! My cronies would lead them on a wild goose chase around the alleys even if

they did. It'd be too late by the tyou're found!" Deidre cackled exaggeratedly.

Mikayla's heart dropped. She'd forgotten about Deidre's military background until now, which meant that she'd

intentionally lured Carlos away this taround. "How am | going to save myself without anyone to rescue me?

she pondered hard.

"You might as well give up trying to buy time. No one is capable of saving you today, Deidre stated, eyeing her

phone. "Carlos is probably still completing his mission and won't be rescuing you anytsoon. With that, she

took two steps back.

The middle-aged man behind her snuffed out his cigarette. "Deidre, are you done?" He was about to take

advantage of the moment and feel her up when she grabbed his flabby hands. "You'd best behave, Gerald!"

Gerald Yates chuckled sheepishly and rubbed the hand she had let go, dispelling any thought of taking

advantage of her.

"Serve her well for me!" Deidre crossed her arms and sneered at Mikayla glacially from above

Her plan to kidnap Mikayla had been in the making for a long time, and she had remained in Xosa all this while

for this day.

All this time, she'd been familiarizing herself with the entire city and preparing for its grand scale. Moreover,

she'd pulled Gerald's strings and even requested her superiors to dispatch Carlos back.

He would know then that she was the one who loved him most after this incident. She would be the only one he

married, as no one else was good enough for him. Mikayla would only be a stumbling block. Abone-deep chill

rose from the bottom of Mikayla's feet and spread throughout her body as she observed the licentious men

drawing closer to her. Their eyes dripped with unconcealed depravity. "How about we make a deal, Deidre?"

Mikayla tried to remind herself to be sensible and not be fazed by the situation before her. There must be

another solution. She struggled to think "What else can you offerin exchange! | lack nothing." Deidre leaned

against the wall and raised her brows. She regarded the terrified Mikayla. who struggled to keep her cool.

Under a head of tousled hair were her exquisite features, which housed a pair of brilliant blue eyes that gleamed

in the dark. She went on upon seeing that Deidre had bid the men to pause. "You lack nothing except for Carlos’

heart! How about you letgo in exchange for my help to obtain

I'm sorry, Carlos Mikayla apologized internally. She was no fool and already knew what horrors awaited her when

Deidre revealed that she would destroy her and when she saw the men standing at the back. Although she'd

tried her best to keep calm and bargain with Deidre, this was her last resort. Thus, the hoped Carlos would

forgive her for letting go.

Deidre smiled faintly, as if she'd discovered something interesting, and stood before Mikayla again, her eyes

trained on her. "Have | misheard You're giving up on Carlos?" she questioned.

"Why not? There initially weren't any feelings between us anyway. | approached him back then merely to get

back at my ex-fiance, who married my cousin, as you probably know. I couldn't get over the fact and hence

nonchalance

Deidre's boisterous laughter echoed in the spacious warehouse. "What would Carlos do once he learns that his
