However, she was quite sure that she could only rely on herself to get rid of Sampson’s kidnap.
She cheered herself up. Despite the pains, she kept running forward.
There was a concrete road after she ran out of the lane. There was a street lamp not far from here, under which it was quite bright.
“Loredana Flores, you lied to me!” Sampson had almost caught up with her without any notice.
Loredana suddenly looked back, only to find that Sampson was standing at the exit of the lane with his cell phone in his hand. The flashlight on his cell phone was pointed at her. He looked extremely gloomy and annoyed, “Do you think you can escape from me?”
Loredana stood on the other side of the concrete road and growled at him, “Don’t force me to hate you!”
“Don’t you hate me now? You’ve already hated me. I have no way back. Will you come to me obediently or shall I go over to drag you over?”
Loredana curled up her dry lips into a bitter smile, “I’d rather die than going over!”
After finishing her words, she ran towards the bright lamp, because she found there was sparkling water over there. She guessed there must be a river or stream.
When she approached closer, she realized that it was a river.
“Loredana, are you insane? You can’t swim at all!” Sampson got to know her intention.
Loredana looked back at him and curled up her lips, “I remember that you can’t swim either.”
Then she jumped into the river without hesitation. The water splashed.
She’d rather die than being caught by Sampson.
Sampson couldn’t swim either. If she was lucky enough, Loredana believed that she could still have the chance to escape.
“You lunatic!” Sampson ran to the river bank, only to find that the river flew fast and looked quite deep.
The river course wasn’t cleaned, so weeds were overgrown in it. He wanted to jump into the river, but he was almost drowned when he was a child. With the shadow in his heart, he didn’t have the guts to jump into the river at all.
Sampson clenched his hands, “You have the death wish. Nobody could stop you!”
The river was deep and it flew quite fast. Loredana couldn’t swim, so she was choked up by the river.
She had seen it from the TV – since she couldn’t swim and jumped into the river, she couldn’t breathe in the water at all. Otherwise, she would be choked up and even die if water got into her lungs.
However, if the water got into her tummy, she might have a ray of hope to survive. Even it was almost hopeless, she couldn’t give up so easily.
Her children needed her. She told herself not to give up.
“Your first time?”
The man’s voice with the smell of his hormone was lingering in her ears. It was obvious that he was asking her, but he sounded quite eager.
The man seemed to pause a bit. His chest clinging to her back was so hot that the heat seemed to burn her flesh. His cold lips were tightly attached to her skin, ambiguously and eagerly. He wanted to have sex with this woman so much, but he was still restraining himself, “It’s still not too late for you to regret.”
“I don’t regret it.”
As soon as she finished her words, the man behind her wrapped around her waist, took the chance to press her onto the bed. In the dark, she couldn’t see his face clearly. All she knew was that he was quite eager. His body was as hot as the flame. His hands seemed to with magic – each inch of her skin touched by him was like on fire.
In nervousness and fear, she wanted to push him away, but thinking about her mother and younger brother in the hospital, she withdrew her hands. She gripped the bed sheet under her tightly.
Suddenly, her body seemed to be torn apart. It hurt, only not physically but also mentally. To stop moaning shamelessly under the man, she bit her bottom lip tightly to keep silent.
The man was so powerful. For several times, she couldn’t bear it, wanting to push him away.
“Don’t-”
Suddenly, Loredana woke up from the dream. She widened her eyes, rolling them to look around. Then her eyes met the pair of amorous eyes above her.
She shocked.
Immediately she bounced to sit up and stammered, “You… You… Who are you?”
“You’ve stolen my line.” The man’s voice was deep and calm. He had short hair and brown eyes, which were as elegant as the starry sky at midnight. He looked especially handsome when he curled up his lips into a smile. Looking at Loredana’s tears that hadn’t dried, he asked, “Did you have a nightmare just now?”
Loredana gripped the quilt tightly. It was more than a nightmare for her.
All through the past years, she had never dreamed about the things that happened that night. It was so real in the dream. The thing that had been hidden at the bottom of her heart, which she was unwilling to mention at all, suddenly appeared in her mind. It was like the scab of her scar in the past was torn up, and her wound was bleeding.
“Did you save me?” She recalled that she could hardly breathe in the river, losing her consciousness.
She completely had no idea what happened next.
“Yeah. To be exact – I asked someone to save you.” The man kept a faint smile.
However, his eyes were not smiling.
It wasn’t until now did Loredana find that the man was sitting in a wheelchair. He was in street clothes. A
thin blanket was covering his legs.
The man’s eyes that were on Loredana were darkened. He didn’t see any disdain in her eyes, and instead, she only looked surprised, which made his expression relaxed.
“I came home last night and saw someone jump into the driver. Then I asked my servant to save you,”
the man said in a gentle tone, “Was there anyone trying to harm you?”
He saw her jump into the driver, so he could see that someone was after her.
Loredana didn’t answer. She shrunk towards the bedhead. As soon as she moved, she had a pain in her foot. She frowned.
The man could tell that Loredana was still alerted to him, and he could understand because she didn’t know him at all and needed to be on guard. Hence, he didn’t continue asking her the question, “Please don’t worry. You are safe here. I also asked my doctor to check you up. Because of the injuries on your foot, I’m afraid you can’t get off the bed until half a month later.”
Loredana knew that her foot was injured, but much to her surprise, he asked his doctor to check her up,
“Thank you so much,” she said.
“You are welcome. I should help others out in the face of injustice. I believe even I weren’t there, someone else would help you as well… Besides, you are such a beautiful woman,” the man teased after a short pause.
Loredana could tell that he was teasing her. Although she was a bit unpleasant, he had saved her life, after all, so she didn’t show it on her face.
“Where am I now? May I borrow your phone please?” Since she had escaped from Sampson, she wanted to call Samuel eagerly to tell him that she was safe. She wondered how Simona and he were doing when she was away in the past few days.
The man’s gaze fell on Loredana’s wrist, on which there was a jade bracelet in green with high quality.
Looking at the jade bracelet, his eyes twinkled a little. He refused, “No, you may not. She will take care of you from now on. If you need anything, you can tell her.”
As he finished speaking, he operated the wheelchair and left the room. When he reached the door, he stopped and turned around to look at her, “What’s your name?”
Loredana widened her eyes but didn’t answer him honestly, “Aurora Flores?”
Her hunch told her that the man in front of her was not simple.
