Chapter 180 - STAY AWAY FROM LUCAS
"Wake up, Foolish Woman!" shouted the bearded man from the front of the car, while the long-haired man sitting next to him looked back.
Now the car they were traveling in had pulled over in front of a housing complex not far from where Ellena lived. For some reason they stopped the car at that place, as if they deliberately wanted to take Ellena home. Could it be that their boss asked for it too? Who knows.
This is really hard to understand. Isn't it normal for a kidnapper to keep the human they kidnapped in a safe place and away from crowds, but why is this the opposite? What was their real motive for treating Ellena like that.
It was dark in the place. I don't know if they took Ellena anywhere for about 5 hours, until at 07.00 p.m they just arrived at that place.
"Stupid Miss, wake up!" shouted the bearded man once more, when the previous shout had no response at all from Ellena. Even this time he raised his voice even more than before.
Again Ellena did not respond to the screams that filled the space in the car. The two men then looked at each other and rolled their eyes.
"Could she be dead?" asked the long-haired man with a worried expression on his face.
Yes, how not? After their boss asked not to hurt Ellena, but what they did a few hours ago. Wasn't that an act of violence that hurt Ellena, even to the point of making her unconscious like she is now. So, what if it turns out to be true that Ellena has lost her life because of them?
"Haish!" The man sitting in the driver's seat seemed to sigh in frustration as he looked away for a moment, then looked back at his friend.
"What have you done to her, you idiot?" cursed the man began to worry about his own fate.
"Arrgh!" The long-haired man groaned in frustration. He also did not think that his actions would have such fatal consequences.
"Come on, we're dead!" growled the bearded man as he bent down, pressing his forehead against the steering wheel.
"I didn't know that woman was so weak. I just slapped her, not strangled her!" said the long-haired man, trying to defend himself.
"Don't stand still, you idiot! Do something!" The bearded man insisted, as soon as he lifted his head back from the steering wheel.
Again the long-haired man groaned in frustration. His hand moved to open the door, then went down and closed the door again with one strong push. After that he opened the back door, intending to check on Ellena's true state. He entered part of the body with his feet still on the ground.
"She's still breathing!" exclaimed the man as he looked forward, having managed to bring two fingers to Ellena's nose. Ellena's breath was slightly weakened.
Meanwhile, the bearded man in front of him looked back, watching his activities, as well as wanting to know Ellena's condition as well.
"Do something! I don't want to know how that woman had to wake up. I still don't want to end my life!" said the bearded man.
No other way. The man with long hair gently patted Ellena's cheek.
"Miss, wake up!" asked the man in a firm tone.
She did the same thing over and over again, until finally Ellena started to move her head, even though her eyes were still perfectly closed.
"Hmm." Ellena hissed, still unable to speak. Apart from being still not fully conscious, her mouth was still covered with duct tape.
"She's aware," whispered the long-haired man with such enthusiasm.
"Good! Continue until she really wakes up!" asked the bearded man happily.
The long-haired man did the same action as before. Waking up Ellena while gently patting her cheek, until the woman finally regained consciousness.
Ellena struggled to shake her body, until she inched upwards, when she found the face of a man with long hair right above her. Her mind must have been negative, thinking that the man would do something bad to her. Yes, it's possible. What else would the man do if not rape her? So he thought.
Before Ellena had time to end the negative thoughts, suddenly the long-haired man lifted his body and stood beside the car, still facing Ellena, who still looked scared.
For a moment the man turned to his friend who was still looking behind him. They seemed to make eye contact, then the man with the long hair came in and sat in the back seat, right at the tip of Ellena's feet. Don't forget to close the door tightly again.
Seeing this action, of course, Ellena looks even more panicked. Convinced that her guess was right, the man would do evil to her. Even though she still felt weak and sore from the treatment of the two men, she still tried her best to lift her body up to a sitting position, after the top of her head hit the car door.
Ellena was still inching backwards, even though there was no longer any gap for her. Especially when the man approached her. Again she struggled and tried to kick the man in front of her, when the man's hand reached out towards her.
"Shut up!" said the long-haired man, feeling furious with Ellena's behavior that kept fighting him.
Ellena jumped in surprise when the man's hand violently pulled the duct tape covering her mouth, causing her to moan from the excruciating pain.
"What did you guys do to me, huh?" shouted Ellena furiously, as soon as she rubbed the part of her mouth that hurt from the man who treated her so rudely.
"Shut up!" said the long-haired man again, then forcefully pulled Ellena's hand closer and turned his back on her.
"Ah!" groaned Ellena as she again had to feel the pain in her wrist, as the man tried to untie the duct tape that was perfectly wrapped there.
"Shut up, Miss. Can't you see where this is?" said the bearded man who had been watching Ellena who continued to rebel.
Hearing the man's question, Ellena reflexively looked out the car window. She realized that the place was very familiar to her. Yes, of course she knew the place very well. In a flash she looked back at the bearded man.
"What exactly are you guys doing?" Ellena asked again still curious, why suddenly the two men brought her to that place.
"What do you think, Miss? Do you think we wanted to harm you on purpose?" asked the bearded man as his friend managed to let go of Ellena's hand.
"Tell me what do you want? I'm just a poor woman who doesn't have any possessions, other than my mother. It's useless for you to kidnap me like this, you won't get a penny. All of that will only be in vain!" Ellena sarcastically tried to tell that she would not bring luck to the two men.
"Ha ha ha!"
Instead of feeling angry, the bearded man actually laughed at Ellena's statement.
"That's not what we want, Miss. In fact we will release you tonight, if you are willing to fulfill our request," said the bearded man looking relaxed, as if he had no burden, even though how much sin he had to bear because of what he had done to her. Ellena.
"Then what do you want, huh?" asked Ellena courageously.
"Very simple, Miss."
The man pulled the corner of his lips into a triumphant grin. His sensual gaze was fixed on Ellena's face, as if he wanted to seduce her on purpose. It was the same with the long-haired man beside him.
Without thinking, Ellena immediately grabbed the bag that was already under the seat, then her hand moved to open the car door. However, damn. The door was locked.
"Where are you going, Miss?" asked the long-haired man who had been sitting beside her.
"You won't be able to leave here until you fulfill our request!" said the bearded man emphatically.
"Tell me what to do!" Ellena said impatiently to get out of that almost hell-like place.
"Stay away from Mr. Lucas!" said the bearded man firmly, suddenly making Ellena even more wide-eyed in shock.
"What do you mean? Who exactly told you to kidnap me like this?" Ellena wore a curious expression. Didn't think that what happened to him was still related to Lucas.
"Don't ask too many questions, just do what we ask!" said the long-haired man.
"But haven't I been avoiding my own husband? Why are you still—"
"Stay away from people close to Mr. Lucas too. Whoever it is, including Mr. Adley!" concluded the bearded man, not giving Ellena a chance to say much.
Ellena was stunned for a moment. She lowered her head. Of course it was very hard for her to receive such an order, even though in reality she was not with Lucas anymore. However, is fate really that cruel, as if it doesn't want to give her another chance to be able to return to her husband.
"If you still don't want to comply with our request, then we'll take the only treasure you have!"
Ellena swiftly raised her head again, as the bearded man threatened that her mother would be the one at stake.
"Don't you ever touch my mother! If that happens, I will kill you with my own hands!" Ellena's sarcasm was full of hatred.
"You will always be in our care, wherever you go. Never once disobey what we ask, if you still want to see your mother breathe freely!" the bearded man said threateningly.
Ellena was silent, then snorted harshly. There was nothing else she could do but give up and promise to fulfill the two men's requests.
"Okay, I'll stay away from Lucas and anyone related to him, except Mr. Richard. Because he's the only person who can help me not to starve to death." Ellena answered softly, of course out of necessity.
"You dare toy with us?"
"I promise not to use Mr. Richard so I can meet Lucas. I promise!" Ellena insisted, trying to convince the two men.
The two men stared at each other again for a moment. Instantly the long-haired man nodded slowly, as if gesturing to agree with Ellena's request.
"All right. We keep your promise!" the bearded man said emphatically. "Now you can go!" he added which immediately received a positive response from Ellena.
Ellena immediately moved to open the door and got out of the car.
