Tristan reached out to grab Joycelyn’s arm.

In the dim light, he gazed at her fair skin and graceful figure. He stretched his hand, intending to touch her.

Just as he leaned in, reaching out, Joycelyn’s eyes shot open. Her clear, icy gaze sent a cold chill through the air.

Tristan froze, taken aback by the intense energy in her eyes.

Without warning, Joycelyn quickly raised her leg and delivered a powerful kick to his most vulnerable spot, landing a decisive blow.

“Ah!” Tristan howled in pain.

Joycelyn immediately struggled to sit up, determined to escape the trunk and save herself.

This was an old neighborhood with inadequate surveillance, and if anything happened, there would be no concrete evidence.

Tristan’s scream would likely have attracted attention. If she could get out and ask for help from passersby, she would be safe.

Before her foot even touched the ground, Cedric appeared, wielding an electric baton. He pressed it to her neck and cranked it up to the maximum voltage.

The shock hit her with such force that Joycelyn was caught off guard and instantly passed out from the electrocution. With a thud, she collapsed back into the trunk, her body limp and powerless, trembling uncontrollably with rage.

Cedric grinned maliciously, staring at Joycelyn, who lay helpless and unable to move. “You’re not getting away this time. I’ve had my eye on you for a long time. After I’m done with you tonight, I’ll marry you tomorrow. Don’t think I care that you’ve been married before.”

Joycelyn glared at Cedric with a fiery intensity.

But Cedric, being the scoundrel he was, couldn’t care less about her fury. He had long been coveting her beauty, and this time, nothing would stop him from having her.

As they passed by, a kind–hearted old man, hearing what sounded like screams, approached with a flashlight to ask if As they passed by, a kind–hearted old man, hearing what sou everything was alright.

Cedric kicked his brother Tristan, signaling him to stay quiet, and immediately stepped forward to explain to the old man that he had just kicked a stone by accident, and everything was fine.

Once the sound of footsteps faded away, and the old man was gone, Joycelyn’s heart sank deeper into despair.

Cedric kicked Tristan awake, and together they carried Joycelyn back. On the way, they ran into some neighbors, and the two quickly explained that Joycelyn was just drunk and they were taking her home.

Joycelyn felt like she was being electrocuted, her body limp and weak. A piece of clear tape was stuck over her mouth, rendering her voiceless.
