Falling Into Abyss In a desolate warehouse on the outskirts of town, a man, holding a syringe in hand, looked at Lauren and
asked with doubts, "Are you sure about this?" Lauren gritted her teeth and confirmed, "Yes." With that, the needle was then
inserted into Lauren's vein.
Not long after, she transformed into someone who looked like they would drop dead anytime soon.
Even doctors would be fooled by her appearance.
Lauren glanced at her reflection in the mirror and decided she still did not look pitiful enough.
She gestured to a muscular man and ordered, “You, get over here.
I want you to slap me.
Hard.” It was not every day that someone asked for a beating, but he was not about to question the person signing his checks.
The man raised his hand and repeatedly slapped Lauren across the face until it was red and swollen.
The pain was so intense it made her gum bleed, but a look in the mirror told her it was worth it.
Everything had to be flawless.
One tiny mistake and Mitchel might see through her act.
Seeing how badly her face was beaten, Lauren was pissed.
She faced the man and retaliated with a slap and a kick of her own "Did you enjoy that, you lowlife?" The man clutched his face
and hit the floor.
Although he felt wronged, he dared not fight back, especially since he had not been paid yet.
Lauren settled into a rickety chair, crossed her legs, and laid down the law.
“Leave the country the instant you get the money.
Understand? I've already set up fake IDs and passports for you.” The men nodded obediently.
Ten million dollars in total for three of them! They would each walk away with more than three million.

Not a bad day's work.
A manic gleam shone in Lauren's eyes as she reveled in her act.
She had just called Tessa with an untraceable number.
While she had not specifically mentioned Raegan, she could tell from Tessa’s tone that her plan was going smoothly.
It felt so good to kill two birds with one stone.

Lauren felt she had endured enough degradation and humiliation to last a lifetime, but it would all be worth it when she saw
herself walking down the aisle with Mitchel.
Ice-cold water splashed over Raegan’s head.
Raegan blinked through the discomfort and struggled to focus her vision.
A headache made it even harder.
It took some time before she could finally make out the face in front of her.

word, Tessa walked over and landed a series of slaps across Raegan's face. The corner of Raegan's lips split open, and blood trickled down to her neck. Tessa, whose eyes were brimming with madness, grinned and taunted, "Consider this your appetizer. The main course is yet to come.” Raegan's heart raced, but she forced herself to

life is in tatters! What more do | have to lose?" Raegan caught a crucial detail in Tessa's tirade and quickly interjected, "That's not true. I have nothing to do with your injuries.” "What? Interesting!” Tessa erupted in laughter, clearly not buying a word Raegan said. She gestured to the two men behind her, and they got the message without her having to say anything. As they moved toward Raegan with a predatory gaze, it was obvious they were keen on

That made things simpler for her.
"Do you even know what you're getting yourselves into? Kidnapping and sexual assault are serious crimes.
How much is Tessa paying you? I'll double it if you let me go." The two men exchanged glances and hesitated.
Tessa's offer had not been all that generous.
They were each getting only fifty grand.
Even though it was the largest sum they had ever seen in their lives, it was not that much.
They had no intention of crossing any serious lines, so Raegan's offer made them stop and think.
"You, bitch!" Tessa lunged forward and kicked the chair Raegan was tied to, toppling it over.
Raegan hit the floor with a thud.
Luckily, since she was bound to the chair, her abdomen did not take the brunt of the fall.

she felt her shoulder take a bad hit, accompanied by a chilling sound that seemed like her bones were cracking. She was convinced her bones were broken. The intense pain shot

agony from the crushing force turned Raegan's already pale face even paler. Tessa had meant to kick Raegan’s abdomen, but she suddenly realized that doing so might cause a miscarriage. And if that happened, things could get messy. The thugs might lose their nerve and abandon the mission. So, she opted for Raegan's feet instead. Tessa relished the thought of
