Chapter 546: Can’t guarantee how long

Meanwhile, the girls held captive finally decided to stir from their slumber. It was Jenny who first regained her consciousness and found herself tied to the chair.

However, the surprise soon turned into dread when she found Bianca next to her tied to another chair.

"How did you come here?" Jenny’s anxious voice caught Bianca’s attention and she slowly opened her eyes, moving her head to the side.

Bianca’s vision cleared and her eyes widened in shock finding Jenny with her.

"Jenny, are you okay? Did Martin hurt you? Oh my god, I was so scared. He said he would kill you " Ignoring Jenny’s words Bianca started inquiring with her eyes frantically moving all over her frame.

Bianca was worried about Jenny’s safety the moment she saw that video.

Martin threatened her that he would harm Jenny if she didn’t follow his words. But now that she examined her by herself, Bianca was glad to see Jenny fine.

Jenny frowned hearing her words and soon something clicked in her mind and she asked," Don’t tell me you risked yourself because Martin threatened you?"

Bianca paused upon hearing Jenny’s words and watched her glare at her.

Lowering her eyes Bianca bobbed her head in agreement and heard her shout.

"You stupid girl. Why did you even pay heed to his threat?" Jenny expressed her disappointment only to hear Bianca snap in return.

"Then what should I have done? Watch him harm you. How can you even say that?" Bianca hated the way Jenny was scolding her.

She was still trying to protect her even when her life was at risk. Martin clearly stated he wouldn’t think twice before killing her if she tried refusing him.

Bianca never wanted Jenny to face a life-threatening incident because of her.

Martin wanted her in exchange for Jenny’s safety so why wouldn’t she do that if it meant he would spare her friend’s life?

Jenny noticed tears welling in Bianca’s eyes only to realize how she overreacted without concern about her feelings.

"I am sorry. I didn’t mean you scold you. It’s just that finding you here scared me." Jenny explained lowering her gaze feeling guilty for raising her voice on Bianca.

Jenny cursed herself for her stupidity. Only if she had used her brains and hadn’t rushed to the hospital mindlessly, Martin wouldn’t have succeeded in abducting her.

As Jenny kept racking her brain everything started to get clear.

Martin planned her abduction just to get Bianca out of her shell. He wanted to somehow bring Bianca to him just so he could finish the unfinished task of killing her.

Jenny’s eyes grew wide at the sudden realization and she quickly turned towards Bianca.

"Bianca, I-I think we are in huge trouble" Jenny stuttered breaking into beads of sweat.

Bianca was taken aback by the dreadful look on her face. However, instead of agreeing with her Bianca leaned forward and whispered.

"Don’t worry, soon Gabriel will come to rescue us" Her words caught Jenny by surprise with her brows arching in anticipation as she watched Bianca assure her silently.

Bianca averted her gaze from Jenny and recalled the note she kept on the table before leaving the mansion.

’I am sure Gabriel must’ve read it’ Bianca thought, hoping her plan worked and soon Gabriel would come to their rescue.

****

Standing inside Bianca’s room, Gabriel read the note she left behind.

’ I am sorry for not following your words. But to save Jenny from Martin I have to take the risk. Don’t worry I will make sure nothing happens to me and will wait for you to come and rescue us.

I have left my phone on the table. Track the number and come find me. I am waiting for you love~ (wink emoji)’

Gabriel chuckled reading her words. Even in a difficult situation like this Bianca was unserious.

"Wait for me. I am going to bring you back" Gabriel said and left the house ready to rescue the girls from Martin’s clutch and find the man who was helping him.

Time passed by and it was time for the event to start soon. However, Ashley wasn’t at ease. Her worries for Richard never eased and now she was sure that something was wrong.

Staring at the text message she received from Richard last night, Ashley wondered why he didn’t call her instead.

Richard wasn’t a fan of texting and would always call her just to talk with her even if it was for a short time. But last night this short message from him now left Ashley wondering if her father was safe or if something happened to him.

"Ma’am everyone is expecting you outside" Miley stepped inside her changing room.

The teaser was soon going to launch and the media and sponsors were expecting Ashley since it was her debut film.

However, Ashley stopped and looked for her husband who was never seen anywhere.

Anxious, Ashley unlocked her phone expecting to make Tristan a call when her phone buzzed and her eyes widened seeing the name of the sender.

"Jennifer"

Ashley contemplated why Jennifer would text her. But soon something clicked in her mind and she pressed the button and opened the text.

’ I heard you aren’t able to contact your father.?’

Ashley’s eyes narrowed as she read the text and the first thing she assumed was how did Jennifer even know about her father.

Soon another message popped and her eyes darted back on the phone. It was a video that she received this time.

Ashley was skeptical about what was this time she wanted to say. But she shook away all her nasty thoughts and clicked the play button only to receive the biggest shock of her life.

Inside the video, she saw her father lying on the floor unconscious. His hands and legs were tied and the sight of his vulnerable sight broke her heart.

"D-Dad" Ashley’s voice trembled as she watched the video focused on Richard for a few seconds before it turned and stopped on Jennifer’s face.

’Then don’t worry, he is safe here with me but I can’t guarantee for how long’

Ashley’s face paled upon hearing her dreadful words and the phone in her hand trembled.
