Chapter 226 Want to Make Love with My Daughter?

Seeing Chloe grab that piece of broken tile, Rena quickly took action to save herself

too.

She moved her body closer to Chloe's side until their bound hands touched. Chloe struggled to hold the broken floor tile and began to cut the rope binding Rena's hands.

Outside, the sound of drunken revelry continued. Chloe's wrists ached from the effort, but she kept going. She knew that cutting the ropes was their only chance to escape.

Rena's father, Angus, had lost his mind to gambling. If they didn't find a way to save themselves, who knew what would happen?

Finally, after several minutes, the rope around Rena's hands loosened. Chloe kept working, and just as she freed Rena, a half-drunk Angus and his buddy stumbled into the room.

Worried they'd notice the cut ropes, Rena kept her hands behind her back. She wanted to untie Chloe, but Angus and his friend left her no opportunity.

Angus had drunk quite a bit, his face flushed and his eyes gleaming with excitement. He swayed unsteadily on his feet, pointing at Rena and loudly introducing her to the man beside him, his words exaggerated by the influence of alcohol.

"This is my daughter, Rena," he exclaimed, his voice high, as if trying to draw the attention of everyone around. "A student at Quest University."

He paused, wearing a smug smile before continuing, "Do you know who is keeping her now? The celebrity Michael."

"He's really handsome and filthy rich," Angus boasted proudly, waving his arms as if to bolster his own confidence. "You tell me, why would he be interested in my daughter?"
