Save Myself from Desperation by Cara Agnes

Chapter 289

In a dilapidated warehouse in the suburbs, Miranda’s hands and feet were tied up, cowering in fear in a corner. She palely looked at the menacing fugitives in front of her. Her already taut nerves tightened up to the breaking-point.

A man named Noe with a chest full of tattoos brandished a steel pipe, swinging it towards Miranda periodically. Each swing halted inches away from her, deliberately attempting to instill fear.

Witnessing her terrified screams and shivers, Noe laughed maliciously, enjoying this cruel game of intimidation.

Beside him, a bald man named Cyclone, who was wearing a gold chain, impatiently checked the time, cursing, “Damn it, what’s taking Ramos so long? Why isn’t he here yet?”

“Hold on, Cyclone. He might be on his way.” Noe waved the steel pipe, veins popping on his arm. “This time, we’re going to make a big score.”

‘Ramos?’ Miranda caught onto this crucial piece of information, instantly associating it with the Ramos family.

Why was she suddenly kidnapped, and how was it related to the Ramos family? And what about Ashley?

Knowing that Miranda had heard it, Noe smiled ferociously and roughly lifted her chin with a steel pipe. “You’re friends with Ashley, aren’t you?”

Her chin stinging from the rough contact, and she was forced to raise her head to look at him, not daring to say a word.

“Speak! Are you mute?” Noe scowled and berated her harshly. “Don’t think denying it will get you anywhere. It’s all on Ashley. If you weren’t buddies with her, we wouldn’t even be bothering with you.”

Miranda trembled at the shout but still mustered the strength to weakly inquire, “What…what does this have to do with Ashley?”

Suddenly, Noe smirked, maliciously provoking. “Someone wants trouble for Ashley, and guess what? You happen to be friends with her. So, we brought you here. It’s all because of Ashley that you’re in this mess.”

Miranda’s face was pale with fear, but her eyes displayed determination. “You say that ‘someone
