Sebastian ended up paying part of the fee to make it happen.
Three weeks later, Natalie packed the bags and helped Hannah out of the hospital.
“Hannah, would you like to live with me?”
“Oh, no.I’m old, and I’m used to living in the countryside. Take me back home.I won’t be comfortable living in big apartments here.” Hannah smiled happily.
She was pleased to see that Natalie led a better life here.
Natalie had no choice but to grant Hannah’s wish.She called a taxi at the gate of the hospital and decided to drop Hannah back at her home in the countryside.
Natalie looked out the window and saw them traverse a desolate path.
At that moment, it dawned on her that the car was driving in the wrong direction.
“Excuse me, you are driving in the wrong direction.”
When Natalie looked out of the window, she found that they were already in the wild. The place was uninhabited and was surrounded by an endless stretch of trees. The car was winding across an unknown path.
Hannah knew her way home better than anyone else.She also realized they were traversing an unknown terrain.
“Ah, this is not the way to our home! Are you deliberately going in the wrong direction?” Hannah anxiously shouted.Sensing something was wrong, Natalie quickly grabbed the driver’s seat.
“Stop the car! We need to get out!” The driver glanced at them through the rearview mirror.He was wearing a mask, leaving only his eyes visible.
Before they knew it, he hit on the gas.Natalie and Hannah jerked backwards.
Hannah had just undergone the surgery, so she weakly collapsed on the seat.Her lips turned pale in an instant.
The taxi moved in an unknown direction, circling along the winding mountain road.
“I told you to stop the car.If you don’t, I’ll call the police!”
Natalie took out her phone from her bag and quickly called the police.
“Help! A taxi driver has abducted me.I! don’t know where I am.There is a maple forest in front of me.”
“Ma’am, calm down, please.Do you remember the license plate’s number? Could you be more specific about where you are and what’s around you? Any clue would be helpful to us.”
Natalie couldn’t tell where she was.She couldn’t see the license plate number now and didn’t pay attention to it when she got into the car.
“No.1 don’t know.I don’t remember.I’m terrified! Please help me.”
Natalie’s voice trembled with fright.
“I’m sorry, ma’am.Any landmark or any distinct thing you can spot?”
“No, nothing.It’s a desolate place surrounded by mountains and trees.”
The driver sneered and turned a deaf ear to Natalie’s words.
Then, he suddenly turned the steering wheel and made a sharp tum.
Sitting in the back seat, Natalie jumped with every bump.
As the driver took a sharp turn, Natalie’s phone flew from her hand and fell down.
Natalie fumbled around and finally picked up the phone.
Unfortunately, by then, the call got disconnected.
Natalie propped herself up and looked out of the window.
The wind was like a sharp knife, slashing her face.
Just as Natalie tried to jump out of the car, her gaze fell on Hannah, who had passed out in her seat.
Natalie could easily jump out of the car and escape.
But Hannah was old and was just discharged from the hospital.
Therefore, Natalie couldn’t leave Hannah alone in the car.
Natalie took out her wallet, gathered all the money, and angrily threw it at the driver.
“I’ll give you all my money.Let us go!”
The driver narrowed his eyes and chuckled.
“You bitch! What’s the use of your small bills?”
He ignored Natalie’s pleas and drove into a grove.
Not knowing what else to do, Natalie called Sebastian right away.
When the phone got connected, she shouted, “Sebastian, Sebastian… the taxi driver has abducted me and Hannah.It looks like we are in a maple forest.But I don’t know the specific location.No one is here.It’s about an hour’s drive from the city…” Natalie controlled her emotions and tried to calmly describe her situation to Sebastian.
“Do you have anything to protect yourself? Try escaping or negotiating with the driver.I will be there in 20 minutes.” Natalie felt a sense of invisible security.
Sebastian’s calmness somehow made her believe she was fine, and that he was coming for her.She trusted him..
However, she was too frightened to notice that Sebastian’s voice had never been this cold and serious before.
Hearing that Natalie was on the phone, the driver hit the brakes.
Natalie’s forehead rammed against the seat, and she cried out in pain.She hurriedly fumbled in her bag.
As soon as she touched a pen, she heard the door open.
“You fucking bitch! Who are you calling?”
The driver grabbed fistfuls of Natalie’s hair and dragged her out of the car.Then, he snatched her phone.
“Ah! Let go of me!”
Natalie shouted in horror, kicking her legs and struggling to escape snatched her phone.
“Ah! Let go of me!”
Natalie shouted in horror, kicking her legs and struggling to escape.
Natalie thrashed around, struggling to escape. She tried biting his hand and kicked her legs.But she was no match to the driver.
He was a strong man who effortlessly dragged her out of the car.
Hannah wanted to help Natalie, but the driver kicked her.
“You old bitch, get away from me!”
Then, he slammed the door shut and locked Hannah in the car.
“Hannah!”
Natalie screamed as a lone tear trickled down from the corner of her eye.
When the driver closed the door, Natalie quickly took the pen and stabbed it into his palm.
“Ouch! Damn it!”
The driver groaned in pain. The man’s face turned scarlet red and the blue veins on his forehead popped out.He quickly grabbed his wrist, and the blood trickled down from the tip of the pen.
Without looking back, Natalie seized the opportunity to escape and ran into the forest.
The driver grew furious.He quickly took off his mask and pulled the pen from his palm.He sucked on his wound and spat out the blood.
“Damn you, bitch!” he bellowed.
He grabbed the knife on his belt and chased after Natalie.
Natalie ran as fast as she could.
After running past the maple forest, she arrived at a green cornfield.
The cornstalks towered above her, swaying with the wind.
They were taller than an average man’s weight.
Natalie couldn’t run anymore.She bent down and began gasping for breath.
All the running had exhausted her.She turned around and found that the driver was still chasing after her.
Knowing that she was no match for the driver, Natalie decided to hide in the cornfield behind the lofty cornstalks.
The wind blew the corn leaves, and the sound of footsteps became louder and resonant.
Huddling in the cornfield, Natalie held her breath and carefully listened to the sound of the footsteps.
“Bitch, I know you’re in here!”
Natalie’s heart leaped to her throat when she heard that.
As the footsteps grew louder, the corn leaf above her suddenly parted.
The driver grinned down at her, looking like the devil.
“I found you, bitch!”
Natalie let out a piercing scream.She tried running away but the driver grabbed her hair and dragged her out.
Natalie fell to the ground with a loud thud.
“You bitch! You shouldn’t have made the phone call.And how dare you attack me?!”
The driver angrily dragged Natalie out of the cornfield with a ferocious look on his face.He squatted before Natalie and slapped her face twice.
“Let me go! I will give you more money!”
The sharp pain made Natalie dizzy; her vision grew blurry.She could taste the rancid taste of blood as they slid down from the corner of her mouth.
The driver grabbed her chin and eyed her with lust.
Then, he pulled out his knife and tore Natalie’s shirt open.
His jaw dropped when as he looked at her milky white skin.
“Oh!” He moaned.
“Gosh, you’re beautiful! We can have some fun before I kill you.” Natalie struggled and scratched the man’s face.
Tears streamed down her cheeks, and her chest heaved violently.
“Don’t even think of touching me.I will fucking kill you!”
The driver frowned and touched the wound on his face.
Anger blazed in his eyes.
He slapped Natalie and ripped off her shirt.
“Fuck you, bitch! I will give you a moment to enjoy it!”
