Tempted Trapped and Too Late to Run

Chapter 731

After the police busted a massive criminal ring, a horrifying truth came out: women were being drugged and locked away. And these weren't just anyone they were all once powerful businesswomen, successful and respected in the big cities.

Every single one of them had run a company with their husband. Then, out of nowhere, they'd have some sort of mental breakdown and completely disappear.

Some of them came from wealthy families, marrying men with no money or connections. The wives' families would help the husbands build their careers, only for the wives to suddenly crack and vanish.

Even worse, after breaking down, a few of these women ended up hurting their own parents in a psychotic episode. Their parents fell apart too, some even dying by suicide. In the end, all the family fortune landed right in the husbands' laps.

Their businesses kept growing. None of them ever remarried. Sometimes they'd post sweet old photos of their wives to show the world just how loyal they were.
