Chapter 1553 Something Important
‘‘Have you returned home?’‘ Harvey asked gently.
‘‘Yeah. I have to hang up for now. It’s not a good time to talk to you,’‘ Sonia answered in a lowered voice.
‘‘Okay.’‘ He sounded sad.
Upon hearing that, her heart softened. Before she realized what was happening, she heard herself suggesting, ‘‘How about we meet up?’‘
‘‘Sure!’‘ The joy in his voice was apparent.
She gleefully left the bed and opened her wardrobe. It took a while for her to pick what she wanted to wear. After that, she gave an excuse to Kelly before leaving the house.
Just as she did, someone suddenly appeared and pressed a towel with a weird smell on her face.
She struggled for a few seconds before passing out.
After an unknown amount of time had passed, she gradually returned to her senses, though she still felt groggy.
It was then someone touched her face. That woke her up completely.
She glanced at her surrounding, which was the interior of a luxurious private room. Nothing told her where she was. Still, she straightened her back as she stared warily at the woman in high heels casually approaching her under the dim light.
Sonia noticed she was tied up by ropes and asked anxiously, ‘‘What are you doing? This is a kidnapping! Let me go!’‘
The woman comforted, ‘‘Don’t get so worked up. I won’t hurt you. Return my bag to me, and I’ll let you go.’‘
‘‘Bag? What bag? I don’t know what you’re talking about, and I don’t know you. You’ve got the wrong person! Let me go,’‘ Sonia pleaded.
She wasn’t sure if anyone would find her here.
As for what the woman was saying, she had no idea what it was. Thus, she didn’t know how to answer.
The woman smiled when she heard that. ‘‘It happened in the bar two nights ago. It was a new Coach bag. Does that ring any bells? That bag means a lot to me. I hope you’ll cooperate.’‘
It was then Sonia realized what the woman was talking about. The bag had only come out this season and was a limited edition.
Since it wasn’t that expensive, she had thrown it into her wardrobe after she finished her meal that day.
From what she could tell, the people standing in front of her looked like stowaways. They were probably involved in some illegal dealings.
Still, she had no idea what she had gotten herself into. She wanted to say she was innocent, but she wasn’t sure if that was the best idea.
Seeing that Sonia was still pretending to not know anything, the woman gestured for her subordinate to point a gun at Sonia.
That made Sonia freak out so much that she was sweating bullets. Her body froze, and no words could escape her mouth. All she could do was stare at her own feet.
‘‘Since you don’t know what bag I’m talking about, I have nothing more to say to you. However, now that you’ve been here, I’ll have to leave a souvenir before I let you go.’‘ The woman then gestured for another subordinate to pull out a knife.
The burly henchman slowly stepped toward Sonia and placed the blade next to her cheek before moving it across her delicate face.
‘‘Stop!’‘ Sonia shouted in terror. ‘‘Who are you people? What do you all think you’re doing? Don’t you know who I am?’‘
Her captors exchanged glances with each other. They had found her through the surveillance camera’s footage, so they truly did have no idea who she was.
