Chapter 233 Strike Back
“So, what do you want to do?”
“Don’t worry. At least you’re my sister. I won’t really peel off your face and use it to make wine.”
She suddenly stood up, took a step back, and pointed at the few men behind her.
“Do you see that? I have prepared everything for you. I just want to see if Archie would really treat you
as well as he always did.”
“I won’t kill you either. After these men finish, I will let you go back to see whether Archie will continue
to keep you and spoil you or not.”
When Jessica finished speaking, she suddenly took out a syringe from her pocket, drew a bottle of blue
liquid from another bottle, and injected the liquid into her body.
Natalia struggled, but what she did was in vain.
She suddenly got a little flustered, “What are you doing?”
Jessica laughed coldly.
“Don’t worry. It would kill you. But it can make you stay a little more comfortable later. After all, I’m not
going to let them kill you. I just want them to cripple you.”
After saying that, she smiled and patted her face before leaving.
Natalia’s complexion changed greatly.
Although she was not sure what exactly Jessica had injected into her body, she thought that it would
not be something good.
Those men saw Jessica leave, and only then did they all come to her.
Natalia stared at them and shook her head.
“Don’t, don’t come over.”
Her voice was a little weak. Seeing her like this, these men all began to grin hideously.
“Baby, don’t be afraid. We’ll be gentle.”
“Come on. Come on!”
*****
Ten minutes later.
The whole basement was quiet.
Natalia was lying on the floor. She could no longer feel the pain of the wound on her wrist, and she
gradually became unconscious ......
She felt so cold as if her body was being soaked in a pool of cold water.
She knew she was dying.
No, she could not die!
The strong desire for survival made her bite her tongue, and the clear pain called back some of her
consciousness.
She heard a painful groan not far away. It seemed there was a man struggling to stand up.
She gritted her teeth and got up. Before that man could stand up, she stepped on his spine, so he
couldn’t stand up at all.
Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.
She had got no energy anymore.
She held on to the wall and tried very hard to walk out.
But the more she walked, the more her consciousness became blurred.
Her willpower drove her to move on, but she couldn’t move her legs at all.
She couldn’t help but shake her head.
She thought that the liquid Jessica injected into her body should be some aphrodisiac drugs.
Now it seemed that it was probably not.
But no matter what it was, it was now making her arms and legs weak.
She couldn’t stay here any longer, otherwise later when Jessica came back, she really couldn’t leave.
With this in mind, she gritted her teeth and continued to move out.
Then she finally saw the light.
She hurriedly speeded up and finally reached the door.
As she expected, this was an abandoned hospital on the outskirts.
She thought the hospital may have been relocated. What was left here was some waste equipment,
and nothing new would here, so these old equipment had been piled up here.
Natalia struggled to walk out, however, just then, there was the sound of footstep behind her.
Her complexion changed. Without thinking, she knew that someone was coming.
She quickened her pace. Fortunately, the person didn’t come this way, so he didn’t notice her.
However, when she really came out, she found that she was probably at the seaside.
It may be a sanatorium. But this was not important. What was important was that there was only one
exit of the basement where she was held just now.
She was unlucky. When she chose the direction in the corridor, she chose the dead end.
Now, she was lying on the railing. On the left was the endless sea, and on the right was the corridor
that someone just passed by.
No matter which way she went, it would be a dead end.
She didn’t think that if she was caught by Jessica again, she would still have the luck and strength to
escape again by fighting with those strong men unarmed.
Finally, after thinking for a while, she looked at the deep sea, gritted her teeth, turned over the railing
and jumped down.

On the other side, in the overseas hotel of McCarthy Properties thousands of kilometers away.
Archie didn’t sleep well this whole night. He felt flustered for no reason.
He vaguely had a bad feeling, but he couldn’t figure out where it came from.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
So early in the morning, he got up from bed at five o’clock and ran along the green road of the hotel,
but the feeling of panic was still there, without abating.
He returned to his room with a solemn face and frowned.
Just then, his phone rang.
It was Nancy.
His eyelids twitched, and immediately he knew why he had that bad feeling. He hurriedly turned around
to pick up the smartwatch that he had taken off and put on the table before going to bed last night.
He saw that on the screen of his watch, the little red dot that was always online had disappeared, and
his pupils tightened suddenly.
“What’s going on?” He picked up the phone and said coldly.
Nancy had a guilty conscience and even over the phone, she could feel Archie was in a bad mood.
She was afraid. But no matter how afraid she was, she couldn’t delay it. She must report it to Archie.
“Mr. McCarthy, Mrs. McCarthy … has disappeared!”
“What?”
“It’s all my fault. Originally, we had a plan, but then something went wrong ......”
Nancy quickly told him the beginning and the end of the matter.
Including what Natalia had asked her to do.
After a while, she asked, “Mr. McCarthy, I’m sorry. I know I should take full responsibility for this matter.
But now the most important thing is to find Mrs. McCarthy.”
Archie took a deep breath and said in a cold voice, “Where are you now?”
“I’m in McCarthy Mansion.”
“Immediately get the surveillance video of the whole city. I’ll be right back!”
Fortunately, Archie’s schedule was to fly to a country in East Asia first and then to the United States
tomorrow after finishing his business, so he was not too far away. He directly asked an assistant to
request a private plane to come back immediately, which took only three hours.
Three and a half hours later, Archie returned to McCarthy Mansion.
