Nina did not stop worrying even as she watched Pierre leave. She leaned beside the car door helplessly, watching the man's back. Although she could not see his face, it seemed like she was still able to imagine how ruthless his expression was at this moment.

This was insane...

Nina felt uneasy. As she recalled the vivid images in her head of him threatening her, he must have done something.

Still, what had he done?

A worried expression appeared on Nina's face when she thought of his treacherous means. She was not afraid if Pierre were to do something to her. However, she was afraid that Pierre would hurt the people around her.

It was because he was a vindictive man.

Nina suddenly thought of Luca. The only person around her who had offended Pierre before was Luca.

She would be the one to suffer if Pierre wanted to do anything.

Nina took her phone out of her bag at the thought of this. She dialed Luca's phone number, planning to tell her to watch out for herself.

When she called her, however, she was informed that Luca's phone had been switched off.

“Did her phone run out of battery?" Nina muttered to herself. After all, Pierre had just warned her. It was unlikely that he had taken action that quickly. Therefore, she left a message for her on Instagram, asking Luca to call her after she charged her phone.

Late at night.

Luca opened her eyes. There was only a dim lamp in the room where she was being kept.

One of the men came in and switched off the other lights an hour ago.

Even though Luca had been resting with her eyes closed, she had been alert the whole time. She was aware of all the noises going on outside. Hence, she could tell when they were coming in.
