"Creak..."
Elizabeth, who was sleepy but had to force herself to cheer up, immediately raised her head when she heard the noise.
When she saw Josephine twisting her slender waist as she walked in, she opened her eyes wide, "Woo..."
Josephine stood in front of her and stared at her with her arms crossed. After a while, she smiled sarcastically, raised her hand and pulled off the cloth towel in Elizabeth's mouth.
"Elizabeth, how do you feel?"
Elizabeth took a few deep breaths and said with hatred, "What do you think? If you were me, how would you feel?"
Perhaps it was because she was pregnant, or perhaps it was because she was too nervous and scared, she was very tired, and her stomach was growling.
If she didn't know that she was pregnant, she wouldn't be so anxious. She had never been pregnant before, and the maternal instincts made her so worried. She was afraid that the child would be affected if she couldn't eat on time, and she was also afraid that Josephine would really hurt her.
No... Even if Josephine let her eat something, she wouldn't eat. If Josephine poisoned her food, she would really be killed.
When Josephine heard this, she was amused, "Are you kidding me? I am not you! Now, you should know that you have been caught by me, and I can do whatever I want to you. Understand?"
"Josephine! What do you want from me?"
"Uh huh?" Josephine pretended to be thinking seriously. After a while, she said mockingly, "I want you to die. Is this okay?"
"You!" Elizabeth's eyes widened all of a sudden, and she glared at Josephine in disbelief. She was more panicked and flustered.
She was extremely frightened, and she started to move her hands which were tied to her back. She only hoped that she could break away from the ropes and then escape.
Looking at what Elizabeth was doing, Josephine was in a very good mood, "Elizabeth, you'd better save your energy. After all..." She paused for a moment, and the smile on her face became even brighter, "You have to suffer a lot later. If you use up all your strength now, you will be like a dead pig, and that will be so boring for me to watch."
Well, she wanted Elizabeth to be scared and horrified. She wanted to see her begging for mercy and being tortured by those scums. Moreover, she wanted to see James's painful and desperate face!
Elizabeth paused, "What do you mean?"
"You'll know it later. It's a surprise, so you have to wait until the last moment to know it, right? If you know it in advance, it won't be funny. Am I right?"
Elizabeth knew Josephine quite well. Hearing her tone, Elizabeth became more confused. Her body began to tremble uncontrollably, and even her lips were quivering.
What on earth... did Josephine want to do?
Did she want money? Or... did she want to kill her?
If Josephine wanted money, she didn't have much money. Even if Josephine asked James for money, he might not answer her phone calls. If Josephine wanted to kill her...
When she thought that she might die soon, she was so scared that her heart was beating wildly.
If she really died, what about her child?
Elizabeth no longer struggled. After taking a deep breath, she said to Josephine, "Let me go. I have nothing to give you. Besides, I don't think I have offended you. Why do you have to treat me like this?"
