Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 260 Who Sent You?

Mu Zhi ran as fast as she could. But she didn’t even know why she was running.

It was as if the anguish in her heart wanted to burst out of her chest.

She and Lu Jinye were really siblings. This last struggle to prove that they were not was a joke!

She didn’t dare turn back. She didn’t even know what to do now onwards.

Mu Zhi exited the hospital. She was about to call for a cab when darkness covered her eyes, and there was a sharp pain in her neck.

When she woke up again, her hands and feet were bound.

She tried to move but the bindings were too tight.

Even though she was not blindfolded, she had been left in a dark abandoned warehouse. It was so dark that besides the weeds which she could feel with her hands, there was nothing else she could see.

“Help!” Mu Zhi screamed.

Her voice echoed back at her in the emptiness.

“Help! Help me! Help!”

Mu Zhi yelled for help again and again until her voice became scratchy. Suddenly, she heard footsteps coming towards her.

Mu Zhi subconsciously raised her alertness and stretched towards the sound to listen for movement. At that moment, the warehouse door opened.

The sudden brightness was blinding, and Mu Zhi had to close her eyes for them to adjust. She slowly opened her eyes to see a man dressed in a suit standing in the doorway. He stood pin straight and gave off a scholarly vibe but wore sunglasses and a mask, covering his face.

“Who are you? Let me go! Why have you kidnapped me?”

Mu Zhi watched in fear as he approached her, wanting to back away from him.

He watched her as he slowly came near. Mu Zhi could feel how terrifying his gaze was even through the sunglasses.

As if he would end her life on a whim.

“It doesn’t matter who I am and as to why I’ve captured you… Well, you should know better than anyone else,” He smiled.
