6 Save Herself

Jane was in pain, but her mind was clear. "What do you mean by that?" she asked.

Even if they couldn't kill her yet, they could torture her. She didn't know what new orders the kidnapper boss had received, but things were looking pretty bad for her.

"Please ... don't kill me. I don't want to die. My husband will definitely give you the money!"

Don't panic. Calm down. Relax. She will be saved when William's men came!

"Why did he ever marry you? It looks like he has a really bad taste in women."

The sidekick stood up and shot a contemptuous glance at her. They whispered to each other not far away and ignored her plea.

Clear footsteps came to the door.

A moment later, the door was partly opened, and a man in a black suit emerged in the setting sun. His face shrouded in shadows, Jane could not recognize him.

The kidnapper boss nodded politely to the mysterious man and went out.

Jane's eyes dulled. She truly couldn't wait any longer.

She decided she must save herself. Moreover, the female lead was unfaithful and selfish, which gave her husband no reason to save her.

She groaned.

She squeezed her eyes shut and gritted her teeth. Then she rolled to the ground with sweat on her forehead.

The sidekick heard the noise and said with a frown, "Our boss said we couldn't untie you and let you go to the bathroom, so you must do your business here."

The sidekick found it funny how a haughty rich lady was so miserable. Even if she was saved in the end, she would carry this disgrace through the rest of her life.

"My stomach hurts. I am having a period!"

Jane was not shy. This was only natural and couldn't be controlled, so there was nothing to be ashamed of.

She saw a small porcelain shard nearby. To avoid arousing suspicion, she could only roll about on the ground and rub it against the rope around her wrists.

There had been a fire, so the walls and ground were all black. The kidnappers failed to notice the shard on the ground.

"Women are so troublesome."

The sidekick agreed immediately and returned to his seat, ignoring Jane.

"It hurts so badly!"

She moaned from time to time and rubbed on the shard hard. Because her hands were behind her back, she could not see where it was, and her hands were cut. Blood oozed out of her palm.

After working on it for about five minutes, the rope was finally loosened.

She wiped the blood on her clothes and kept her hands behind her back. Then, when the criminals weren't paying attention, she also loosened the rope around her feet. It could be untied with a tug now.

"What time is it?"

Jane asked, panting heavily.

"6:10. Only 20 minutes left before the transaction."

The boss' phone buzzed, and he received a new message, which got his full attention.

Was it past six? She thought it had only taken her five minutes. In fact, it had been much longer.

She was in more danger when the transaction was nearer.

She must act now!

Anyway, it beat waiting for rescue. She wasn't that silly as to trust William with her life.
