Chapter 470: Chapter 473: Giving Birth to a Child for Another Man
In the night, a minivan sped down the road.
“Boss, can we trust the person we’re meeting this time? I don’t know why, but I have a feeling of unease.”
In the minivan’s cabin, a little brother with a southern accent spoke uneasily to the head kidnapper.
“Unease, what unease? We’ve done this kind of thing before, haven’t we? It’s just a kidnapping… Once we get on the highway, pass the toll booth, and then get off the highway onto the Provincial Road, we’ll take all the back roads. Even if they send helicopters, they won’t find us. There’s nothing to be afraid of!”
Another little brother consoled him, “Exactly, you’re just overthinking it. I know what you’re afraid of, it’s just that you were almost caught last time. Don’t worry, this time is different from before, no need to cash in the ransom. We’ll throw these two girls in some remote village where there are only men and no women. Once there, they’ll be left to have kids and carry on the family line. It has nothing to do with us.”
“Right, by the time they’re rescued, they might already have several sons.”
“Hahaha!” Everyone burst out laughing.
The head kidnapper also laughed heartily, “Actually, this deal is pretty simple. We don’t have to kill anyone, and there’s no ransom. Last time I went to have my fortune told, the fortune teller told me not to get involved in bloodshed for half a year, or else there would be a great disaster.”
“Come on, Boss, in our line of work, who doesn’t deal with bloodshed?”
“Besides, you forgot what that person said. The girl we kidnapped is carrying someone else’s child. Sending her to that kind of place to be married to a whole village of men, do you think that child will be safe?”
“You’re right, I almost forgot about that. I’m telling you, the person who gave us the money is even more heartless than us. Just to make the girl lose her baby, they came up with this idea.”
“Sigh, that’s true… rich people are all this way, every one of them darker-hearted than the last.”
A few of them chatted aimlessly.
They completely failed to notice that the two bound bodies at their feet twitched in unison.
Lily Gray, pretending to be unconscious, shuddered at these words.
All the blood in her body seemed to be flowing backwards.
Her baby, it turned out, they were after her baby!
No, her baby absolutely couldn’t come to harm…
*
In the darkness, everything seemed to stretch on endlessly.
The longer time passed, the more remote the chances of them being found.
She didn’t know how long it had been, but even as Lily Gray lay on the ground, her limbs cold as ice, she continued to remind herself that she had to stay calm.
As a mother, she had to be strong.
For her baby, she absolutely had to escape from here.
The van continued to speed down the road, as Lily Gray’s thoughts raced at the speed of light, and she remembered their conversation earlier.
That’s right; they would be taking the highway. When they passed the toll booth, they would certainly attract attention if she suddenly kicked the inside wall of the vehicle.
These kidnappers didn’t know that she and Joan Wellington had already awakened.
As long as they kicked the inside wall when passing the toll booth, they would certainly catch the attention of the people outside.
Yes, that’s the way!
This is the only way!
Lily Gray had made up her mind. Even if doing so would cost her life if she failed, she had to go through with it.
Only by doing so would there be a chance to save her baby and be rescued.
If she did nothing, her unborn child would be doomed.
Lying on the cold ground, Lily Gray kept silent, even as the biting cold invaded her body.
There was only one chance, and she had to wait for the perfect moment.
