Chapter 665
I could only curse internally before I passed out. After all, I didn’t think I had ever offended anyone recently to deserve being abducted and tortured.
To outsiders, I was the high-and-mighty Ms. Goldstein whom Mark pampered. Besides, Christopher also claimed that I was his wife. In other words, I had the backing of the two most powerful figures in Avenport.
Crystal was arrogant but dared not offend me. Although Isabelle pampered her, all she could do was tease me. She would not have the courage to abduct and torture me. As such, I could not think of anyone who would do this to me.
I wasn’t sure how long I had lost consciousness. By the time I woke up and opened my eyes, I was shocked to see a face right before me. My body flinched backward instinctively, yet I was restrained and could not move an inch.
Meanwhile, she came up to me and scanned me from head to toe. As my eyes slowly adapted to the light, I saw a girl who looked pure and naive.
“I admit that you’re beautiful, yet you’re no match for me. Tobey used to say that my vulnerable look is catnip for men’s protective instincts. He likes it whenever I blush. Besides, I can look shy but seductive at the same time. On the other hand, you appear strong and stubborn, and so you can never give him what he desires.”
Tobey?
Tobey Osborn?
Eventually, I remembered that the young woman before me was Flora. She was the one who showed up at the cafe and begged me to leave Tobey. As soon as I thought about that, I almost lost my temper and swore out loud. My goodness! She’s my abductor? What an unexpected disaster!
At that moment, I was dying to know the reason why she abducted me.
“Flora, is there any misunderstanding between us? Nothing happened between Tobey and me. You can call and ask him if you don’t believe me. I can tell that he loves you very much. When you showed up at the cafe that day, he didn’t even glance at me for a second. So, it shows that the only woman he loves is you. Instead, we met up only because we were forced to do it. So, don’t you think you’re overreacting here?”
Gazing at Flora, I felt increasingly confused. What on earth does she want? NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
“Stop lying to me with your sweet talk! I’ll never believe women like you ever again. Those who claimed that we were friends always betrayed me by sleeping with Tobey. I won’t let you succeed in snatching Tobey away from me.”
Flora did not buy my clear and concise explanation; instead, she became increasingly emotional. She glared at me and moved her fingers ferociously as though she wanted to skin me alive. Deep down, I couldn’t help but think that someone had probably betrayed her in the past.
“All you have are your beautiful looks and strong family background. What else do you have? Can you die for Tobey? Will you be with him if he is deprived of everything? I could do everything for him, but
what about you?” Flora went berserk and yelled at me. Aside from that, she also let out some weird noise from time to time.
My heart skipped a beat. At that moment, I couldn’t help but feel that Flora was similar to Crystal. Back then, Crystal broke down when her true color was revealed during the wedding. She also went nuts and the only thing in her mind was to murder someone.
I gulped in fear and decided not to irritate her. After a while, I said gently, “You’re right. I can’t do all these because I already have my loved one—Christopher. Yes, you heard me right. He is Christopher Lane. He and I are considered public figures in Avenport. You can try asking around or looking us up on the internet. After all, there are a lot of gossips about us.”
