Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 1034 Forever Humble in This Life

Ann had been burning the midnight oil at work until 3 a.m. When she finally headed downstairs, she felt woozy and lightheaded.

Just as she was about to get into her car, a group of guys jumped out from the shadows and whacked her on the head with a stick, knocking her out cold. These dudes, all wearing hats pulled low, quickly dragged Ann into another car.

Ann woke up to a bucket of ice-cold water. She looked up and saw several masked men staring back at her.

The leader, Joe Orsini, tossed her phone in front of her. "Call Selena and tell her to come save you."

So, they were after Selena. Ann shook her head and refused, turning away.

Joe squatted down, grabbed her hair, yanked her face up, and slapped her hard. "Don't piss us off, or we'll rape you."

Ann's head snapped to the side from the slap, and blood trickled from the corner of her mouth.

Joe kicked the phone towards her. "Make the call. If you don't call within ten minutes, we'll kill you."

These guys weren't just some street thugs; they were clearly pros at this kidnapping game.

Ann glanced around. It looked like she was in some abandoned basement in the suburbs-dark and damp.

With no other choice, she slowly picked up her phone and made a call. She said just one sentence before hanging up, "I've been kidnapped."
