Facade of Love

Chapter 15 Taking Her to the Mountain Top

“Yvette Scott!” The man beneath me roared in anger, and then I was tossed onto the ground.

After throwing up, I sobered up a little. I looked up at the man standing before me, who was now covered in filth. If the law allowed cannibalism, he would have eaten me by now. I was a bit stunned. and decided to act docile. “Don’t glare at me like that. I’m scared.”

He seemed to be laughing from anger, and lifted me up, sneering. “Do you even know what fear is?”

I was about to say something when he took off his jacket and threw it into a dustbin. He then bent down, picked me up, and strode out of the club.

He proceeded to throw me into the car. I did not dare to make a sound. I was still a little tipsy, and while my mind was clear, my b*dy was weak. I was afraid that if I angered him further, he might throw me into some foul–smelling ditch, so it was best to keep my mouth shut.

However, after sitting in the car for a while and noticing he had not come back yet, I wanted to get out but discovered that the doors were locked. I had no choice but to lean against the passenger seat and try to clear my mind.

After a while, the car door slammed shut with a bang.

Startled, I opened my eyes and saw Idris had entered the car, now in a new set of clothes. So he had gone to change? How meticulous of him.

Too tired to talk, I closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep.

He started the car and drove for quite some time. I began to feel something was off. Though Lake City was huge, regardless of whether he planned to take me to a hotel or back to Clearwater Residence, we should have arrived by now.
