Theo's body was already stiff and cool like ice. He was also unconscious.

"Wake up, Theo. I'm here to take you out of here. Please be okay." While sobbing, | removed my jacket and

draped it around his body. | then hugged him tightly to warm him with the warmth of my body. However, my

body temperature was far from enough for him. I helped him up, but an unconscious person was simply too

heavy. | could not lift him up at all.

| saw a rope next toand tied us together. | shuffled out of the freezer room with much difficulty while

speaking into the earpiece, "I found the freezer, Mr. Cook. I'm not sure how long Theo was in there, but his body

is already stiff and he's also unconscious.

Just as | was about to reach the door of the freezer, it suddenly shut. What followed immediately after that was a

sharp drop in temperature.

A bone-chilling coldness invaded my body, freezing it instantly.

| frantically shouted into the earpiece but the signal seemed to be cut off as | could not hear a sound from the

other end.

Theo's body was stiffening even more. | put him down and hugged him tightly, wailing, "Can you please wake up,

Theo? Please, | beg you. Open your eyes to look at me. We'll be saved." Were we going to die here on this day?

No way!

| was in great despair. Even though | knew that | should be preserving my energy right now, I still could not stop

myself from wailing.

No matter how | screamed, Theo still did not wake up. | was starting to lose hope.

My tears fell on the ground, freezing into ice in no tat all. Even the air | breathed out turned into white mist. |

was about to turn stiff from the freezing, and my limbs were starting to lose their function. Theo was in an even

more severe condition than me. | could barely feel his breathing.

| kept rubbing his hand and talking to him, praying that he would wake up.

If Solomon did not know that we were in danger and continued to wait for us outside, were we going to die here?

The feeling of waiting for the doom of oneself and one's loved one was simply too anguishing.

As | had nearly frozen to death once, | had a psychological trauma and becparticularly afraid of the cold.

Especially in such freezing conditions, | would feel an overwhelming fear, which directly manifested into my

uncontrollable body twitches.

"| agree to sign. Let her go."

The man's raspy voice sounded in my ears.

My mind was a little clearer now. | lowered my head to look at Theo.

| could only see his frozen eyelashes. For a moment, | wondered if | was hallucinating.

Just as | was about to speak, the door of the freezer opened.

A man walked in. He was none other than Jordan.

He was clad in a black suit, still looking cool as ever.

| had mixed feelings. Although | had already guessed and was mentally prepared that Jordan was the

mastermind of this whole incident, | still found it hard to accept it when he appeared before my eyes. Why was

he such a cruel person?

Why was he doing this to us?

"I've been carrying the contract with me, just waiting for you to sign it," he said with a smile. It was a smug one

no matter how I looked at it.

| took a deep breath and asked in a trembling voice, "Why are you doing this?"

Jordan looked atwith a smirk, still as gentlemanly as ever. "I must thank you, Wanda. Otherwise, Mr. Grant

would never have agreed to put down his signature on this contract even if it meant freezing to death."

He took the contract handed over by his men, walked up to us, and looked at Theo while saying, "You really do

love Wanda, Mr. Grant. You refused to compromise even after staying hours in the freezer, but you compromised

as soon as Wanda came.

Your deep affection has moved me."
