Let's Get Married

When Eunice wakes up again, all she could see is black. Memories flash through her mind and her body tenses up. She tries to move her legs and feet and is not surprised to find herself bound by the rope.

Her eyes accustom to the darkness bit by bit. She gradually realizes that this is a small room with no windows. It is about ten square meters and is extremely narrow. Perhaps it was because of the lack of furniture, the room is not very suffocating.

It is quiet. Her mouth is sealed by tape. She has only seen such a scene in TV dramas, but now it does happen to her.

She has never expected this day to come in her lifetime.

Where's Adair?

Is the boy safe?

Almost at the same moment that the thought flashes through her mind, the door in front of her is opened from the outside. The bright lights in the corridor shine into the room. It is so dazzling that tears almost run out of her eyes.

She closes her eyes tightly and waits until she is accustomed to it before opening them again.

The one leading the way is a man who is about 1.72 meters tall. Since Eunice is lying on the ground, she has to lift her head with great difficulty to see his face.

At first glance, she notices the long scar across his forehead and left cheek. The wound doesn't seem to be old. It looks a little red and swollen, which makes his frightening face even more hideous.

His skin is very awful, dark and pitted. His face is so big that it is even bigger than a plate. With a buzz cut and unsightly eyes, his is revolting and dangerous.

The man reminds Eunice of the photos of murderers she has seen online. They are all gloomy and frightening.

"So you're awake." The man squats down and grabs her chin with his hand. He puts so much force in it that he seems to be able to crush her bones. "I remember you, the woman who took a shot for Ryan."

Eunice's eyes widen as she puts the two things together.
