Chasing the Unexpected

People were hiding in both the bedroom and by the door, indicating a premeditated attack.

Nyla scrambled to her feet and ran toward the kitchen. Unfortunately, she only managed a few steps before someone grabbed her arm and slammed her against the wall.

“Who are you? Why are you- Mmph!”

Before she could finish, one of her attackers pinned her down and pressed a cloth against her nose. A pungent smell filled her nostrils, and her vision began to blur.

Soon, two masked men dragged a large suitcase out of Nyla’s apartment.

Since it was just past 8:00 p.m. and most people were home from work, there weren’t many people around, so the men didn’t attract much attention.

They quickly reached the back gate of the building, where a nondescript van without a license plate was parked in the shadows.

They loaded the suitcase into the trunk and drove off toward the outskirts of the city.

Spencer hurried into the CEO’s office at Prospectus Technology with a document in hand.

“Mr. Sumner, this file was just sent back by our partner. They said there might be an issue with the experimental data, but I’m not a technical expert. As such, I can’t pinpoint the problem,” Spencer said.

Damon glanced at the file and said, “Call Nyla.”

Spencer nodded and quickly called her.

Nyla’s phone vibrated in the dark living room for a long time before stopping.

Spencer tried calling several times, but Nyla didn’t answer.

“Mr. Sumner, should I go to Ms. Jayston’s place with the document?” Spencer asked.

“Go ahead.”

When Nyla woke up, she found herself crammed into a confined space, which felt like a suitcase.

Panic and fear washed over her. Although she usually remained calm, this was her first time experiencing a kidnapping, and she knew she was in constant danger.

Her captors could decide to kill her at any moment.

After taking a deep breath to calm herself, she noticed that she was moving, likely in a vehicle. Where were they taking her?

She gave it some thought. She wasn’t staying somewhere affluent and hadn’t offended anyone. Besides,

captors had clearly planned it based on how they had abducted her.

After considering everyone she had interacted with, she concluded that the most likely person behind her

kidnapping was Lucia.

Suddenly, the car stopped.

Nyla heard the trunk open and quickly closed her eyes. Moments later, she felt the suitcase being lifted. and roughly dropped to the ground.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

Pain shot through her body as if every bone had been shattered, but she bit her lip hard to keep from making any noise.

If they realized she was awake, there was no telling what they might do. For now, it was safer to pretend

to be unconscious.

She heard voices outside.

“I brought her here for you. Now give me the money you promised.”

There was a brief silence before a familiar male voice responded.

“Wait, I don’t have the money yet. Once I get it, I’ll pay you immediately.”

The first man’s voice rose in anger. “Kenneth, are you playing me? I agreed to help you kidnap her, not to get involved in extortion. Give me my money now, or I’ll spill everything about what you made me do. Don’t blame me for what happens next!”
