Chapter 414 What's Meant to Come Will Come Eventually

This person was really, beyond reason.

I was led to the attic by several men. Looking around at the damp environment with a smell of blood, I couldn't help but frown. It was clear that many people had suffered here regularly, and who knows how many might have died.

The girl had my hands and feet bound and fixed to a cross, she circled around me, examining me with her hands, a smug look on her face. "There are many who want to seduce Daniel, and you think you're worthy with your looks? Today, I'm going to show you what happens to those who covet others."

After speaking, she gave a signal to the man beside her and said, "Beat her, until her skin is broken and bruised."

After explaining, she twisted her waist and sat down on the chair opposite, calling for someone to bring tea and snacks. She looked at me leisurely.

I was immobilized, completely devoid of any ability to resist, like a fish on a chopping board, at the mercy of the knife and chopping block.

"Crack!" When the whip fell, I was not unprepared, nor was I unaware of how much it would hurt. But when the icy whip brutally hit my body, the piercing and clear pain still made me involuntarily let out a

scream.

Seeing my pain, the girl seemed to be in a good mood. After popping a grape into her mouth with her slender fingers, she mumbled excitedly, "Keep going, keep hitting!"

As her voice fell, I was immediately met with countless lashes, the pain was so clear. I was most afraid of pain, and I didn't know how many lashes I had endured. I just felt that the pain on my body was one after another, so dense that I couldn't tell exactly where the pain wast coming from.

At first, I had some strength to scream, but in the end, I was in so much pain that I didn't have the energy to make a sound. I didn't know how many times I had been hit. The pain was heart-wrenching at first, but later I became numb. The only thing I could feel was the strong smell of blood.

I didn't have the strength to open my eyes to see just how battered and bloody I was, but it wasn't hard to guess. I was probably a sight too gruesome to bear by then.

I didn't know how much time had passed, I just felt that I didn't even have the strength to breathe. In a daze, I only felt that I was dragged and thrown somewhere by someone. Afterwards, everything around had quieted down.

Everything that happened today, I knew it would come from the moment I followed Ezra to the border. However, what surprised me was that the person who took action was not Ezra, but a girl I was completely unfamiliar with.

It's impossible for one to be lucky all the time. Five years ago, I was able to leave here unscathed. This time, it might not be so easy. Ezra is no fool. He has escaped death twice in a row. If it weren't for his identity being discovered so early by Captain Lucas in River City this time, I'm afraid not only Captain Lucas and his team would be dead by

now.

Walter and I couldn't have possibly survived until now either.

The physical pain drained me of the strength to think. Lying on the cold, hard floor, I felt as if all the energy had been sucked out of me, lying motionless.

Looking back, today's situation is probably just the beginning. The real living hell is likely just starting.

Thinking like this, I couldn't help but feel increasingly desperate. I was not willing to be tortured to death here.

I didn't know how long I had been lying in the cold place when I was groggily awakened by several voices.

"Brother Chen, I'm afraid this old man won't last much longer if he continues to be tortured. Maybe we should report it to the higher-ups. If he really dies, it won't be easy for us to explain," a strange male. voice said.

Someone else chimed in, "Stop meddling, it's been said from above, if he doesn't hand over the stuff, he can only die here."

Subsequently, I heard a muffled groan, someone had been thrown onto the ground.

As the footsteps faded away, I propped myself up and crawled to my feet. The place was dim and cold, a chaotic mess as far as the eye could see. I spotted a mangled body not far off, discarded on the ground.
