However, her strong desire to live had suppressed the fear in Serene Silas' heart. She took another deep breath and carefully turned the doorknob to open the door.
When the door was opened, she could sense that the room was filled with a terrifying masculine aura which she was familiar with. She instinctively took a step back in fear.
As soon as she stepped back, Serene remembered that she was escaping from this prison, and quickly suppressed her fear. She stepped into the room and locked the door from the inside.
Serene was not in the mood to appreciate the decoration in the room, her eyes were busy searching for a door that would lead her to the backyard.
Just as she looked around, she saw a photo frame on the desk. The woman in the photograph who was wearing a beautiful smile was obviously her.
How could there be a photo of her in that devil's study room?
How could it be?
Serene was confused.
She instinctively stepped forward, trying to figure out what was going on.
As she got closer, she found that there were a few words written at the bottom of the photo - The love of my life!
However, the words were canceled out with red crosses. It seemed to have been marked in red angrily.
Serene's attention was not on the red crosses, but on those four words, "Love of my life".
Jackie!
It was him!
She would never forget his beautiful handwriting for the rest of her life, it was definitely written by Jackie. She wouldn't be wrong about this.
Moreover, Serene could still recall that this photograph was taken when she was with Jackie, because only when she was with him, she could smile so brightly.
In the past, when she wouldn't smile, he always had his unique way to make her laugh ... Whenever she was with him, she could get rid of all her worries.
Serene picked up the photo frame with her trembling hands and held it tightly at her chest. She murmured, "Jackie, Jackie, are you there? If you are there, please answer me, okay? Please take me away, away from this horrible place, okay?"
No one answered her. The study room was dead silent except for her own voice.
Just as Serene was gasping for breath, an exquisite jewelry box that was lying next to the photo frame had caught her attention.
She picked it up and saw a ring resting in the box. It was the engagement ring that Jackie had given to her but was snatched away from her by the devilish man.
"Jackie?
Jackie?
Are you there?
Are you there?
Are you there or not?
I beg you, answer me!"
Serene shouted Jackie's name like a crazy woman, but no matter how loud she called out for him, there was no response.
Serene was overwhelmed by desperation, as her frail body fell on the cold ground.
It was not her Jackie.
Jackie was not here.
How could be possible that Jackie was here?
She smiled bitterly and laughed at herself for thinking about him. She was about to lose her mind and was on the verge of becoming a crazy woman.
Since Jackie was not here, why would that devilish man have her photo?
