Chapter 74
Chapter: 74
It seemed Ariana had to just rely on herself. She gritted her teeth and kicked Lynch in the crotch.
“Fuck!” he yelled out. “You bitch!”
The pain was excruciating He could hardly stand up straight. His eyes were red, filled with fury.
Ariana didn’t dare to look back at him and ran straight for the elevator.
The floor was laid out in a semicircle. She had to pass the front hall to reach the elevator.
Just then, the drug kicked in. Every one of her steps took a huge amount of effort, and she began
panting and sweating.
Clenching her fists, she told herself not to fall down. With every step, she was closer to victory. She
stumbled forward, praying someone would suddenly appear and come to her rescue.
“Bitch! Stop!”
She heard Lynch’s roar from behind her. He had recovered much quicker than she expected.
Ariana reeled, hurrying around the corner. A hand reached out and pulled her into a room.
She let out a screech before the hand covered her mouth.
She could hear Lynch cursing in the corridor. Not seeing anything unusual, he walked away.
The hand let go of her.
Ariana was completely drenched in sweat, and could barely stand up. She grabbed the man’s clothes
for support.
The room was gloomy, and the drug was making her mind swim. She couldn’t really see anything
She looked around trying to see who had saved her, but all she saw was a shadowy figure.
“Who are you?”
Ariana asked, her body trembling. She pinched herself in an effort to stay sober. But she felt as if she
couldn’t hold on much longer. There was an itching sensation all over her body, like hundreds of tiny
bugs were biting her.
The person was silent for a few seconds before chuckling. “This is the second time I’ve saved you.”
It was a man. His voice was so quiet she could hardly hear him. But she understood.
The man in front of her now was the same mysterious man who had saved her and then teased her in
the ladies’ room.
Instinctively, she stepped away from him, but he pulled her back.
“You! Let go of me!”
