Chapter 318

Audrey’s POV

So it wasn’t a dream?

Takes Me,

My eyes adjusted to the dim light. I could make out Blake’s face behind his mask, his features unmistakable even in shadow.

I tried organizing my thoughts. How long had we been in this van? The drugs in my bloodstream were dissipating, and the unnatural heat that had consumed me earlier was fading.

At first, I’d assumed the kidnapper wanted ransom money from Adrian or Parker Group. But as his words filtered back, I realized his intentions were far more depraved.

My stomach turned. If Blake hadn’t controlled himself earlier when I was throwing myself at him…

I bit my lip and looked up. “Thank you for not taking advantage of me, but remember, I’m not Audrey Sinclair!”

“That Audrey,” I continued, “her life was so miserable.”

“The people she cared about didn’t care about her. The person she loved didn’t love her back. She couldn’t get anything she wanted and was killed by the man she loved.” The bitterness slipped through despite my efforts. “How tragic. I don’t want to be Audrey Sinclair.”

Blake pressed his lips into a tight line before speaking. “It’s not that I didn’t care about you, or that I didn’t love you.”

“I just… love you too much.”

I couldn’t help smiling slightly. “No need to explain to me. You should explain these things to the dead Audrey Sinclair.”

“I am Evelyn Knox,” I declared. “I was treasured by my parents. When I grew up, I met Adrian Knox. Our relationship was smooth sailing. After college, I started my business, married him, and had our daughter.”

I said these on purpose, as I knew I must have done something I used to do that made him so certain of my identity.

I laughed coldly. “Being someone like me, I can’t understand Audrey Sinclair – growing up at the bottom, standing faithfully by a man who didn’t love her. Her life was like a joke.”

Blake’s eyes suddenly turned cold. “Mrs. Knox, I don’t care whether you were Evelyn Knox or Audrey Sinclair. You have no right to mock my wife’s previous life. Her life wasn’t a joke!”

I tested my limbs, still weak from the drug. Realizing I couldn’t stand alone, I stopped struggling.

“It makes you uncomfortable to hear someone mock your ex-wife’s life?” I asked sharply. “If so, didn’t you ever think about her when you hurt her? If you’d considered her just a little, her life wouldn’t have been so miserable, would it?”

Blake’s expression was self-mocking. “I know, I wasn’t good before. I did many things that hurt you.”

“Audrey, you -*
