Attracted By My Ex-wife

"Anybody here?"

Anne called out nervously. Her racing heart calmed down a bit when no one responded at first. A couple of seconds later, however, a man's voice rang in her ears.

"Boss, she's awake!"

'Is that the kidnapper?' Anne gulped, her palms getting sweaty.

"Okay," another man replied with a grunt. "Take off her blindfold."

"Yes, sir!"

All of a sudden, her eyes were flooded with light. Squinting, she slowly opened her lids until her pupils grew accustomed to the sudden brightness. A man with a peaked cap was standing in front of her. With his head lowered and his face hidden in the shadows, it was difficult for her to see what he looked like.

Around him stood a group of men. They were all stocky, ugly men. What was more, they all had a scar right across their faces.

Despite this, they were dressed in black, formal suits, matched with newly polished leather shoes.

"Who are you? Why did you kidnap me?"

Facing the group of fierce men, Anne was not afraid. On the contrary, she was calmer than she was a little while back.

"Aren't you afraid?" the man with the cap asked bemusedly. In his entire lifetime, he had kidnapped so many women. This was the first time he had encountered someone who boldly spoke up after regaining consciousness.

There was no doubt in his mind now that she was indeed Kevin's woman, who had exceeded others in both bravery and wisdom.

Anne smiled. "Why should I be afraid?"

"Well... You got kidnapped. Can't you see that?"

Of course, she could feel the ties around her wrists and ankles wrapped around the arms and legs of the sturdy chair. Aside from the light hanging overhead, everything else was so dark and desolate. It was difficult to figure out where this place was or if they were still even in the city at all.

It was the kind of scene you would see happen in a TV show. Anne knew well that she had gotten into trouble.

Even so, there was not an ounce of fear in her heart.

"I know." Anne raised her head and looked around, almost arrogantly. "I just don't understand why you need to have so many people to kidnap one woman. It's such a waste of time, don't you think?"

"She has a point, boss. Two people can easily handle her. There's really no point for you to come and personally handle this, is there?"

The man standing next to her said to the man in the middle. "I mean, with all due respect, you said that the job was to render her disabled using a car. It just doesn't make sense why we still had to kidnap her, boss."

"Disabled?" Anne frowned as she looked at the man in front of her. However, the man kept his head down and low. "Someone asked you to hurt me?" she asked incredulously.

"That's right," one of the other men answered. "Eighty million dollars to cripple you, to be exact."

"Eighty million?" Anne chuckled. "I didn't expect that I would be so valuable! Then why haven't you crippled me yet?"
