Chapter 48

Eleanor was so scared that she immediately stopped talking.

Feeling a little lost, she glanced at the man. He didn’t get angry, which meant he wasn’t Bernard.

Feeling sad, she mustered the courage to turn around in his arms, lay facing away from him, and closed her eyes to sleep.

For some reason, even though this man wasn’t Bernard, she felt like he wouldn’t hurt her. So, she fell into a deep sleep with ease.

After she fell asleep, the man pulled her back into his arms.

He held her, gently patting her back from time to time.

Eleanor was so tired that she fell into a deep sleep, but in a daze, she dreamed of the young man again.

In her dream, he raised his foot, taking aim at her heart, and delivered a powerful kick.

She dreamt that he broke each of her fingers, one by one, and viciously slapped her across the face.

Writhing in agony, she lay curled up on the ground.

Yet, even in her pain, she reached out to him with hopeful eyes, her voice trembling, “Garett, it hurts… It hurts so much…”

Her whispers resonated in the man’s ears, causing his hand to freeze mid–pat on her back.
