Always Been Yours

Chapter 1447

“President Sawyer, we’ll have a chance to take care of these three people afterward. The most important thing now is to think of a way to locate Mistress.” His words jolted Nicholas out of his irrational state and he finally calmed down.

In the meantime, the Tessa whom they were so worried about had been brought to the mountain in the suburbs. This was a very barren mountain that was surrounded by rocks everywhere.

After they took her away, she was knocked out, and they carried her over their shoulders like she was a sack of potatoes. A short while later, they reached the top of the mountain, where the men in black woke her up violently with icy, cold water.

Tessa was riddled with fear at the sight of these unknown men surrounding her after she blinked into awareness, especially after she realized that she was placed next to a cliff. Her eyes filled with terror as her teeth chattered in fright.

But very quickly, she tightened her jaw and forced herself to remain calm. “Who are you, and why did you abduct me?” “You don’t have to know who we are. All you need to know is that we need you to die.”

She was horrified by his apathetic words as she turned sideways to look at the cliff behind her, which was dark and bottomless. She couldn’t even see the end of it at all.

Even so, she knew that the chances of survival were zero if she fell from here. The thought of that made her rattle with fear because she didn’t want her life to end yet.

At the same time, besides fear, she also started feeling dubious. Who are they, and why do they want me dead? she wondered. No matter who they are, I have to get through the crisis at hand.

With that thought in mind, she put up a strong front, straightened her back, and started negotiating with the kidnappers, “I know all of you are merely carrying out orders, and you. know very well who I am. If you’re going to kill me for money, I can offer you money in exchange for my life, too, and we can speak about the amount. In addition, if anything should happen to me, my husband would never let you off,” she said, observing the kidnappers around her. From NôvelDrama.Org.

Although there wasn’t any light and the men had covered their faces, she still noticed some clues from the details. All of them are foreigners!

When she realized this, she became even more confused because she couldn’t figure out which foreigner would harbor such intense hatred for her that they would even cross borders just to kill her.

The more she tried to analyze the situation, the more anxious she became, but she continued to put on a composed face. “Also, everything you’ve done already broke the laws of the country. However, if you stop where you are now, I can consider not pursuing the matter.”

The men sniggered as they all knew that she was deliberately stalling for time. “Stop wasting your efforts. If you think that you can drag the time until your husband arrives, you can’t be more wrong than that.”

“What do you mean by that?” She couldn’t conceal the panic in her eyes as she started trembling because of the overwhelming fear that had engulfed her..

However, that man had no intention of explaining himself and simply said emotionlessly, “Our employer has told us to capture you and not let you speak to avoid any unexpected situations. So, you can go to hell now.”

While he spoke, he stepped closer and closer to Tessa. Her eyes never strayed from this unknown man’s form, so she could watch his every move intently, and her heart shuddered more with every step he took

It was then and there that she was completely taken over by fear and wanted to step back out of reflex, but it was a cliff behind her, and she had nowhere to retreat. Right then, the man stopped in front of her, and the pupils of her eyes shrank when she stared at the big and tall man in front of her as he extended his arms.

“Wait a minute!” she shrieked and successfully. stopped the man in his tracks. He frowned as he demanded, “What’s the problem now?”

“Even if you’re going to kill me, at least let me know why I’m dying. I’m really curious about who is this person that despised me so strongly that they would hunt me down in a different country.”

Even though she really wanted to find out the mastermind behind this, she knew that the possibility of finding out wasn’t very big.

Even though she seemed to be stalling for time when in fact, she was using the corners of her eyes to observe the surroundings below the cliff the entire time. She knew that she couldn’t escape her fate today, so now all she could do was try to save herself. At least, she should stay alive until Nicholas arrived.

The man didn’t know what she was planning, so he sneered derisively as he mercilessly watched the woman who still refused to give up and kept stalling for time, even toward the end of her life.
