She gritted her teeth, and placed the phone beneath her just like that. With her back facing the two of them, she turned it on. The phone had been in silent mode all the time. She scrambled to open the message box.
The last text message was sent to her by Mark, and the next one was from Solomon. So the two messages were next to each other.
The voice of conversation and footsteps were approaching behind her. She glanced at the phone with the corner of her eyes as she opened a message box to type a message.
She did not realize that she had not opened Mark's message but Solomon's. While paying attention to the sound behind her, she quickly tapped on the screen with her fingers, cautiously, not making the slightest sound.
'Mark, Ronald abducted me. He wants to take away my baby in the womb and then extract my bone marrow. The doctor is on the way. I am in a-'
Before she could finish composing the message, she heard footsteps behind her. A shadow shrouded her. Obviously, Ronald was already standing behind her.
Her body and fingers were trembling. She did not dare to continue typing the message lest Ronald found out. She instead pretended to wake up, moving her body while secretly pressing the Send button.
She struggled to wake up, and then yawned, wriggling her body as she shoved the phone down to her hips before she sat up.
Looking at her surroundings and then at Ronald in surprise, she asked, "Why am I here? What are you doing here, Mr. Valentine?"
Ronald looked at her faintly, without responding. He motioned with his eyes and the man beside him immediately tied her to the pillar behind her.
"What are you doing?" She writhed and struggled laboriously.
His cell phone rang at this moment. Ronald glanced at the caller ID, waved at the man to tell him he could continue to have his meal, and he went away to answer the phone.
While no one was looking, Summer lifted her butt with all her strength so that now the phone was behind her. Her hands were tied up with a rope, so she could not really move her hands, let alone type on the phone. Left with no choice, she aimed at the Record button, then pulled her clothes to cover the phone.
"Are we taking her to the hospital now?" The man in a suit asked.
After thinking for a moment, Ronald changed his mind again. "No, tell the doctor to come over and bring all the drugs and equipment."
Perhaps Mark had already suspected that he had taken Summer, and was probably following his trail in Santabaca.
Here was a suburban area, remote and far away from the city. Mark would not find her so quickly. By the time Mark got here, he would have done everything he needed to do.
The smell of fuel in the air disgusted Summer. But she was tied to a pillar and could not move a bit.
Ronald was waiting for the doctor and Summer did not say a word. There was a suffocating silence in the abandoned factory.
