Chapter 1034
Zoey was pulling a late–nighter at the office until 3 a.m., feeling light–headed and wobbly as she descended the
steps of the building. Just as she was about to get into her car, a group of men charged at her from the shadows,
striking her head with a bat. She blacked out instantly.
The men, their heads hidden under baseball caps, tried to hide their faces, and then quickly dragged Zoey into a
different vehicle.
She was jolted awake by a splash of icy water. She looked up to see several masked men staring at her, the leader
tossing her phone back at her. “Call Maja, let her come rescue you.”
It seemed like they were after Ms. Penny feather.
At first, she refused to cooperate, turning her head away.
The leader crouched down, roughly grabbing her by the hair and forcing her face upwards before delivering a
sharp slap.
“I’d advise you not to piss us off, or else you’ll be entertaining all five of us,” He growled.
Zoey’s head was knocked to the side by the force of the slap, a trickle of blood oozing from her mouth.
The man kicked her phone with his foot.
“Make the call. If you don’t do it in the next ten minutes, we’ll rape you.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe menacing aura they exuded was far beyond petty thugs, they were clearly professional kidnappers.
She took in her surroundings, it appeared to be some abandoned basement on the outskirts, damp and dark.
She reluctantly picked up her phone. She had no choice but to make the call. She spoke just one line before hanging
up quickly.
“I’ve been kidnapped.”
But the man on the other end was drunk, he tossed the phone aside and continued to pour himself another drink.
When the kidnappers saw that she hadn’t called Maja and deceived them, they kicked her to the ground.
“You think you can play us?!”
One of them began to undress her, but the leader took her phone and dialed Maja himself.
It was about 4 a.m. in the morning and Maja was still asleep.
As soon as she answered the call, a threatening voice came from the other end.
“Your assistant is with us. If you don’t want her hurt, better come alone to this place. If you dare to call the cops or
bring others, we’ll gang–rape her”
With that, the leader signaled another man.
That man was still undressing Zoey. He took the cue and began to slap Zoey.
Zoey started to cough, and then spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with one of her teeth.
The kidnappers intended to make her scream to prove to Maja that they weren’t joking.
But even after several slaps, all Zoey did was cough a couple of times.
“Fuck! You think you can out–stubborn us? Take her now!”
Just as he finished speaking, Maja’s voice came through the phone.
“If you really want me to come, don’t touch her until I get there, or I won’t come.”
The leader squinted his eyes, hearing the calmness in Maja’s voice, he scoffed, “You better hurry up, Ms.
Pennyfeather. A few minutes late and your assistant wont be clean anymore. Just in time too. We brothers have
been pent up for half a month.”
Maja’s fist clenched on the side, lan, who was sleeping next to her, had already gotten up, one hand around her
shoulder as he curiously asked,
“What happened?”
“Zoey’s been kidnapped. They’re after me.”
lan was already dressed and was making a call.
In less than five minutes, his men had pinned down Zoey’s location
“Maja, you stay here, I’ll go.”
“No, I’m worried about Zoey.”
Ian had no choice but to let her come along. But when they arrived, all they found were the kidnappers writhing on
the ground in agony. There was no sign of Zoey.

Maja, terrified, immediately called Zoey.
Despite rushing over without delay, the building was nearly reduced to ruins.
Zoey was in a car, dirty and her clothes torn to shreds, covered in dust.
The man didn’t let her sit on the seat, disgusted by her filth.
She had to sit on the floor, curled up, her knee accidentally brushed against his expensive suit pants.
He frowned and moved away, his tone disgusted as he warned her.
“Don’t call me again.”
Zoey was trembling in front of him; once someone was humiliated, they were humiliated forever.
“Yes.”
She wrapped her arms around herself, not daring to lift her head and meet his eyes.
The phone rang on the side; it was Maja.
The man’s tone was very cold, he threw the phone straight at her, hurting her a bit.
“Answer it, it’s annoying.”
She quickly picked up the phone and answered it.
“Ms. Pennyfeather!”
“Zoey, are you okay? Where are you?”
“I’m fine, I was saved by a friend ~ worry, I’m on my way back.”
Maja sighed in relief, but was also puzzled. They hadn’t wasted any time getting there, which friend could have
beaten them to it?
