Elias’ Crimes and Punishments of Romance

The man chuckled. “We can capture you precisely because you don’t have any identification documents on you. What’s the point of wandering around? Let me introduce you to a job. I guarantee that you’ll live a good life.”

“What kind of job?”

Amanda narrowed her eyes. She already knew what business this man was into.

She was also not likely to be the first victim.

“It’s nothing special. What can country bumpkins even do? There is nothing special about you except for your pretty face. Did you think I would really let you manage a club? Your job is simple. Just sleep with the men. I don’t need to teach you anything, right? Every woman knows how to do it. The only difference is in your obedience. If you’re obedient, you’ll suffer less. Otherwise…”

At that moment, a scream of pain came from the next room.

The man glanced at the wall behind him and said, “Did you hear that? If you don’t listen, you’ll suffer like her. It’s your choice.”

Amanda’s heart clenched when she heard the woman’s scream. She could not help but scowl.

Suddenly, a thought struck her mind, and she smiled, saying, “Of course, I don’t want to suffer. I’ll definitely be obedient!”

She needed to find a way to escape. One look at the men standing guard outside, and she knew she could not overpower them with force. She had to outsmart them.

She did not even have a phone with her now, so there was no way for her to call for help. She also could not escape if she were locked up in a room with no windows.

She had to leave this room first.

The man heartily laughed. “You’re smarter than the others. Among the women we caught over the past few days, you’re the most beautiful. Who said beautiful women are brainless? You’re quite clever and good at adapting to your situation.”

Amanda remained silent.
