Larisa woke up and found herself tied to a chair. It looked like she was in an abandoned warehouse.

She recalled having been hit by a sharp object before she lost consciousness. Could she have been kidnapped? Immediately, fear crept into her. She yelled, "Where am I? Help! Help me!"

"Larisa, calm down. Shouting won't help... trust me, I tried," A familiar voice reached Larisa's ears.

She turned her head to the right and found Ivy tied to a chair just like her. Her eyes widened in horror.

"What's going on here? Why have we both been kidnapped?" Larisa asked, her heart racing wildly in her chest.

In her heart, she was worried about the safety of the baby she was carrying in her womb. If anything bad happened to her, she could lose her child.

"Good question," a man's voice echoed in the warehouse.

Larisa turned to the source of the voice and her heart raced when she saw four thugs approaching them.

One of the thugs who looked like the leader stepped forward. He had a bald head and yellow teeth. One could smell the alcohol reeking from his body from a mile away.

"Don't worry, Larisa. Ryan will come and save us," Ivy said confidently.

'Yes, Ryan, my husband,' Larisa mused, her eyes filled with hope.

However, when she saw Ivy who was also kidnapped, her hope dimmed again.

Larisa pursed her lips as she recalled how Ryan rushed out after hearing of Ivy's disappearance. She thought bitterly, 'He would probably only come for Ivy. I'm nothing to him compared to her.'

It didn't take long for Ryan to arrive at the warehouse. He walked in and stopped in his tracks when he saw the two women tied up in front of him.
