Chapter 576 Encountering an Old Acquaintance

"I'm so sorry. I thought you were smart, but you're a reckless woman." Haris initially believed that Elspeth would be at least well-prepared, but she did not even make it past the first line of his trap. I told her about this secret passage, and she came alone and unprepared because she took my word for it. A trace of disappointment flickered in his eyes, but it quickly faded.

"Did you drug this place?" She felt her strength ebbing away from her. Even though she could not raise her hand, her mind remained sober.

"You must have been too nervous to realize the scent of the drug wafting throughout the room."

"What a sly man you are." Besides cursing under her breath, Elspeth couldn't say anything else.

"Do you know why I lured you here?" Haris chuckled nastily. "Your mom is ideal for the drug testing, and so are you." As soon as he waved his hand, two men emerged from the corner of the room. "You two put that woman back into the room and tie this woman in the inner room."

After hearing that, a trace of coldness flashed across Elspeth's eyes. "I won't let you go."

"I'll be waiting for you." Haris sounded regretful. "I can stay here longer because I'm used to it, but I'm afraid you won't."

She knew that being a drug tester was harmful to the body. However, she appeared to have no choice but to devise another escape plan.

On the other hand, Elspeth was shocked when she was tied up in the inner room she had never been to before and discovered it was full of drug testers. All of them had mottled skin, sunken appearances, and thin figures. Some even looked as if they were taking their last breath. The few who seemed reasonably lively saw her bound and thrown in there, felt sorry for her, and closed their eyes.

Nonetheless, her hands and legs were tied up and pushed toward a corner. However, there was another woman in the corner who appeared to be her age, but her temperament appeared to be calmer than Elspeth's. Elspeth could tell the woman had been tortured because her body was abnormally skinny. The only thing that set her apart from the others was that she wasn't bound, and she didn't appear to be plotting her escape; instead, she lay on the ground in a submissive manner.
