The Million-Dollar Heart

Chapter 223

Chapter 223

Arabella was struggling to stand up in a cramped, damp room. Her legs were weak, and she could barely manage to move with the support of the stained and disgusting walls.

The men on the ship had skillfully severed the tendons in her hands and feet, only leaving her able to perform basic tasks like eating, but with much difficulty

After being sold to the owners of this place, she was confined to this small room, where she entertained clients around the clock

As a newcomer, even with a scar on her face, she was fresh and alluring to their entire clientele. For the past few days, she barely had a chance to rest except during meal times

She’d had enough. She could no longer endure living in that damp and disgusting room. The foul–smelling men who treated her like a plaything made her feel like she was living a life worse than that of a pig or a dog.

She secretly tore her sheets, intending to tie them to the iron bars covering the window and hang herself.

Just as she was about to do it, the door was suddenly pushed open. The men quarding her saw her actions and began to spew curses in a language she didn’t understand. They dragged her off the bed and began pummeling her brutally and mercilessly.

The strips of cloth she had intended to use for suicide became a tool to bind her to the bed.

The men who had beaten her showed no mercy, even though she was already covered in bruises

She saw a short man entering her room, and then her eyes suddenly filled with an even greater despair.
