The Lawyer’s Romance in Law

Moon gazed at Amanda. For some inexplicable reason, she felt a force in her heart urging her to trust Amanda.

“Alright. I believe you.”

“In that case, eat your meal and get a good night’s sleep. We only stand a chance at escape when we are well-rested and nourished,” Amanda advised.

Moon obediently nodded.

Amanda, however, glanced at the door and let out a soft sigh that only she could hear.

She didn’t know if Elias would come to rescue her. She had made two phone calls, and the second one was abruptly cut off. Elias should be aware of her perilous situation.

After a while, a man entered the room with two boxed meals as well as some toiletries and clothes.

“After you finish eating, take a shower and change into these clothes.”

With that said, the man left.

Moon had been hiding behind Amanda all this time because she had been beaten numerous times in the past two days. Every time she saw these people, she would tremble in fear, as if she had encountered a ghost.

“I don’t want to wear these clothes. I don’t want to sleep with those men. I don’t want to. I don’t want…”

Moon was afraid of these clothes because, on the first day, she was forced to wear revealing attire. However, she would rather die than comply. She even bit one of them, resulting in at beating.

Amanda noticed her fear and comforted her, holding her and saying, “Don’t worry. You don’t have to wear them. They won’t let you go out like this with your current injuries.”

That finally calmed Moon down.

Amanda picked up the boxed meal and began to eat. She was indeed famished. Since fleeing Simon’s house, she had not eaten a single meal or had a sip of water.

In the subsequent days, Elias scoured all the bars and nightclubs in the area, but there was no sign of Amanda. The worst possibility even crossed his mind.
