In the end, Elaine managed to persuade Allen, and he really let go of her and did not force her to do anything.
Hurriedly, she sat up and adjusted her clothes.
At that moment, his unrestrained gaze fell on her. "Well, since you wouldn't be able to go anywhere, and now that I'm bored, come over and have a drink with me!"
As Elaine trailed behind him, she secretly observed her surroundings.
Then, he patted the seat next to him. "Come here."
After she walked over, Allen gave her a bottle of beer. Since she wasn't good at drinking, she only took a small sip. When she felt the bitterness in her mouth, she frowned.
Meanwhile, he stared at her and asked. "Why? Don't you like it?"
But she remained silent.
When he saw that she was silent, he chuckled, "Have more of it. It would save us a lot of trouble if we were drunk. Besides, we will be able to enjoy ourselves better later."
Suddenly, her hand that was holding the bottle of
beer froze.
After a pause, she asked, "Did you send out your message?"
"Why?"
"Haven't they replied you?"
With a frown, Allen asked, "What do you mean?"
"I was just thinking, it was quite some time since you had sent Vincent the video, and we both know that he had received it. If he really did care about me, he would have called you as soon as he saw it, but he didn't."
Then, she smiled at him. "Allen, maybe I am worthless in his heart. In fact, you even asked ten million for ransom from him. It would be stupid of him to give you so much money."
As soon as he heard that, his expression turned a little ugly. "If he doesn't care about you, today will be the day you die. So, you'd better pray that he cares about you!"
Indifferently, Elaine shrugged. "I wouldn't bother much if you were to kill me today. Anyhow, we humans would definitely die someday."
Never did Allen expect her to be so open-minded, and he could not help but sneer. "Well, even if you wanted to die, you would have to get my permission first. Besides, I would make sure that you would have an ugly death. Hence, you'd better pray that he would transfer the money to the account I mentioned, otherwise..."
As he threw the bottle in his hand, he said, "You would have to wait and see."
The shards of the bottle flew and almost scratched her face. Thankfully, she managed to avoid them. When Allen pulled her up, she hurriedly tried to find a weapon from the table behind her and smashed it at his head.
"Pow!" After Elaine smashed his head with the beer bottle, he stumbled for a bit and let her go.
Immediately, she ran outside.
However, the moment she grabbed onto the doorknob, she felt a sudden pain in her back. As she let out a silent cry, she was pushed to the ground by the force. Furiously, he shouted, "B*tch, you're seeking death!"
With strong force, he grabbed her hair and dragged her into the house.
Silently, Elaine gritted her teeth and placed her hands on the floor as she tried to find a weapon that she could use to attack him.
In a fit of anger, Allen threw her back into the cage. Then, he spat out a mouthful of blood and unbuckled his belt. "B*tch, if I don't torture you today, it would be unworthy of my broken hand!"
Disgusted, she uttered, "I really regret that I didn't
let him kill you at that time!"
Never did she expect that a person could actually be evil to such an extent.
As he took off his belt, he sneered, "God spared me from such a great disaster so that I could have today!"
Silently, she retreated, but the cage was just a small space, and there was nowhere she could go.
A trace of fear slowly emerged in her eyes.
Suddenly, she felt as if her hearing seemed to have been magnified many times. All she heard was his sinister laughter and the sound of him taking off his coat. Every sound and action that he made was causing her to panic.
At the moment of desperation, she seemed to hear the sound of footsteps.
And it was coming toward her direction.
Although it was pitch-dark outside the room, there seemed to be a bright light in the hazy darkness.
Under the dim light, she saw a slender shadow walked in. It was a dark-haired man in a black suit and a cold face.
The moment she saw him, the tears that she had been holding back all the time suddenly started to fall.
Meanwhile, Allen seemed to have sensed something, and as he turned around to look, his expression was as if he had seen a ghost. Very quickly, he calmed down and pulled out a gun from behind his waist. "Don't come over here."
