Chapter 674 Escape
Natalie woke up to a throbbing pain in her head, and she could vaguely hear the sound of water flowing.
She hissed in pain as she opened her eyes to see the luxuriously decorated ceiling of the hotel. After taking a look at her surroundings, she realized that she had been carried into a room.
Her forehead hurt, and as she tried to reach up to massage the spot, she noticed that her wrists were bound by tape.
Someone’s kidnapped me!
Natalie’s brows knitted together as a faint glint flashed across her eyes.
Who would kidnap me at a time like this? Did they do this to target me or Samuel? Countless possibilities as to why the kidnapping happened flashed through her mind. But everything vanished as soon as she saw the figure of a man showering in the bathroom.
If he wanted to kill me, or if he wanted to use me to threaten Samuel, he wouldn’t have kidnapped me and kept me in a hotel room, then taking his time showering. She concluded that the man had hit her and tied her hands up to the bed because he wanted to violate her.
But I haven’t taken off the hyper-realistic mask on my face. How is it possible that a man would be interested in such an ugly face?
It’s so obvious that someone has instructed him to do so.
Taking in a deep breath, Natalie quickly tried to calm herself down.
It was not the time to guess who had kidnapped her. What she needed to do at that moment was to leave the place as soon as possible. If she didn’t leave now, she wouldn’t be able to get another chance to escape since her hands had been tied up.
Giving it some thought, Natalie made a decision.
All she could do was use her teeth to free herself from the tape.
The man in the bathroom whistled happily, seemingly enjoying his time as he showered.
At the same time, Natalie push through the pain and bit on the tape to try and break it as best as she could. There were a few layers of tape around her wrists and even though it was starting to hurt her jaw, she dared not stop.
If she failed to break free before the man came out, everything would be in vain.
Before long, bright red fluid started to drip from her mouth.
Yet, Natalie could not care less about the blood as she continued to bite on the tape before finally freeing herself.
The moment the tape broke, she could finally feel her hands.
Shaking her hands, she took a glance at the figure in the bathroom. The man had already turned off the tap, and based on his movements, it looked like he was drying himself with a towel.
Feeling a stroke of luck, she took the phone by the bed before she left.
As expected, there was no password. Natalie unlocked it and started reading through the messages on the phone.
Good.
A smile surfaced on her face as her eyes slowly turned cold.
I don’t attack unless I am attacked. Yara, do you really think I won’t go against you after you’ve plotted against me? Did you think I won’t dare to, or that I’d be reluctant to do so?
Natalie put the phone back on the bedside drawer and removed all the tape from her body before leaving the room without so much as a glance back.
Meanwhile, Martin was finally done with his shower. He changed into a bathrobe and walked out of the bathroom.
“We’re on a clock here, Natalie. Wake up!”
His vision was blocked as he had a towel over his head while he dried his hair.
Seeing that he wasn’t getting a reaction, he shouted impatiently, “D*mn it! Are you pretending to be dead? I’m telling you right now, there’s no use in pretending to be dead tonight!”
Martin was getting increasingly impatient at this point. He removed the towel and turned to the bed angrily. However, all that greeted him was an empty bed. The woman he had kidnapped was gone after his shower.
He walked over to the bed and picked up the bloody tape. His face scrunched into a vicious expression as he hissed, “You b*tch! I really underestimated you. How dare you escape in my presence?”
