“Her daughter is in the hands of the Dorvall family now. Let’s see if she dares to refuse Elliot…”

Amid the banter and mockeries, Amber cried and trembled. She sobbed silently, unable to make a

sound. She dared not to argue, only pleading with sign language to express her desperation.

“Why are you crying? Let me make you smile,” Elliot sneered, reveling in the humiliation. “If you don’t

serve me well, you and your daughter are in for a rough time!”

Amber’s trembling body swayed, and her beautiful face turned as pale as a sheet.

The shame, helplessness, and despair were too overwhelming!

“Hurry up! The guys are all here, eager to watch the show!” Elliot’s gaze burned with increasing desire

as he focused on Amber. “Move quickly. Don’t keep the guys waiting, or you and your daughter will pay

the price!”

Amber’s spirit was crushed as she moved forward like a lifeless doll. She took a step closer, and her

knees slowly bent to the floor…
