Chapter 168

Eileen crossed paths with NightKing the day after her 20th birthday in her previous life.

On that day, she had just collected the inheritance she was entitled to and left the lawyer’s office.

Little did she know, she was about to get kidnapped.

Eileen had been secretly training in boxing for the military academy exams.

Yet, when faced with gun-toting kidnappers, her boxing skills were of no use.

She was dumped in a dimly lit, abandoned factory in the suburbs at night.

After attempting to fight back, she was severely beaten and tossed into a sewer infested with dead rats.

In her dazed state, she heard some kidnappers arguing outside.

Suddenly, a gunshot.

Eileen was shocked.

Then, a few more gunshots.

Eileen didn’t understand what was happening, but she heard slow footsteps approaching her.

Soon, someone yanked her hair and said, “There’s one more here, still alive.”

Under the dim, worn-out bulb overhead, the light was blinding.

With her injured eyes barely open, she struggled to see the people in front of her.

She had no clue who they were, why they were here, or what had happened to the kidnappers outside.

Suddenly, she heard a cold male voice.

The man’s voice was like a python licking a person’s throat, instilling a suffocating fear, “Kill her and bury her with the others.”

Eileen’s pupils constricted instantly.

She didn’t want to die!

She had to fight back!

She grabbed a brick and hurled it at the man holding her hair.

Caught off guard, the man was hit in the shin.

Enraged, the man savagely kicked her in the head.

Eileen was sent rolling back, hitting her head on a steel plate.

She spat out blood, struggled to her feet, and with her last ounce of strength, fought back fiercely.

She sustained serious injuries in the fight. In the end, she had four broken ribs, her head was covered in blood, and her hands and feet were dislocated.’
