Forced Into Marriage: My Husband’s Too Mean novel Chapter 404

At that time, Lindsey only thought that Dezi would be in danger if he followed her, but now, it seemed that it was not a wise decision to let him run alone. If he followed her, she could at least feel a little more at ease.

"No, wait. Maybe he ran back and found Zayn. He might be safe and sound. Nothing will happen." Lindsey comforted herself, but she was so worried that it was overwhelming.

Lindsey also thought of Zayn. If something really happened to her and Dezi, what would happen to Zayn? They had already lost a child.

Uneasiness, anxiety, fear, and doubt flooded her mind that she could not calm down.

"Is anyone there?" Lindsey shouted once again. The darkness and silence magnified the emotions in her heart.

"Ann! Why do you want to capture me? What have I ever done to you?" Lindsey had a hunch that Ann was around here, just watching herself from some corner, so she shouted at her.

As soon as she said this, the dark environment suddenly lit up.

Lindsey's eyes were blinded by the light and the tears stimulated by the bright light instantly fell. It took her a long time to adapt to the sudden brightness in front of her eyes.

She wiped the tears off her face and stood up. It was a very ordinary abandoned factory with machines scattered on the ground that were no longer useful.

This time, Lindsey was sure that Ann was really here and she could still hear her. She stood up and vigilantly surveyed the place. "Come out! What do you really want?"

"I want you to die." A soft and feminine voice rang out. It was a little hoarse, so it was not very seductive, but it would still catch the attention of others.

Lindsey's eyes swept every inch of the surrounding area, but she did not see Ann's figure.

This time, the voice spoke again, "Stop looking, you can't find me."

"I have nothing against you, so why are you doing this?" Lindsey guessed that the woman's voice was probably from some speaker. Ann could see and hear her every word, but she was not here, so she was probably talking to her through some special device.

The woman's laughter came out of nowhere like she had heard some kind of joke. Lindsey even felt that Ann was laughing until tears came out. Unlike her voice, Ann's laughter was coarse and unpleasant, like an old woman's.

Lindsey suppressed the discomfort in her heart and her face became colder as she carefully observed her surroundings.

The door of the factory was not far away from her. Lindsey went forward and tried to pull it, but as expected, it would not budge.

The laughter finally stopped and her usual tone returned. “You said you have nothing against me. Lindsey Juhl, after so long, you’re still so naive and didn’t even improve one bit!”

Lindsey ignored the malice in her words. She had clearly never met Ann before, so how could they even have a grudge? This woman was probably crazy.

She ignored the familiarity that she sensed when she saw Ann at the beginning. To Lindsey, Ann was just a stranger she had met once. The biggest connection was probably that Ann was Zayn's business rival.

Was this the reason why she locked her up here and said they had a grudge?

Lindsey felt that she had overlooked something.

Before she had time to think about it, the door in front of her was slowly pushed open from the outside.

"Get lost!" Lindsey said in a stern voice. "Do you know that you’re breaking the law by doing this?"

The man at the head of the group was fat and sized Lindsey up with a contemptuous look. "Breaking the law? Let me tell you, honey. Today, I am the law!"

After he said that, he took a few steps forward.

Lindsey could not retreat anymore and could only defend herself with the metal rod in her hands.

"Look at you, so feisty. Don’t worry, I’ll be gentle so you won’t cry so much," The man said, then looked back at the people behind him. The group of men just laughed.

Their words became harsher by the minute as they constantly insulted Lindsey. Her eyes grew colder. "Do you know who I am?"

"Who?" The man at the head of the group immediately added, "Someone paid me to f*ck you, so today, you’re my woman."

"Your woman? You can ask anyone at the Guggenheim Corporation if they agree!" Lindsey said coldly as she raised the metal rod in her hand and slammed it on his head.

The man originally thought that Lindsey looked weak and was holding the metal rod to act brave. There were so many of them, so after a short struggle, she would give up. They did not expect that Lindsey would really dare to hit them. The man was caught off guard and only subconsciously raised his arm to block his head.

This time, Lindsey used full force. The man's arm was numb, followed by a painful sensation. He immediately cursed, "F*ck!"

Lindsey succeeded in hitting him and dared not pause to catch her breath. She waved the weapon in her hand frantically at the others around her and surprisingly hit a few of them.
