Chapter 347
"Yes, Ma'am? Do you need something?" Mai asked.2
"Mai, where are you now?" Kate asked, her tone urgent, and Mai turned serious immediately.
"I'm in my room, Ma'am. Is there something wrong? Did something happen to you?"
"Listen to me—"
BANG! BANG! BANG!
"Mrs. Woods! You have thirty seconds left! I will have to break in!"
Kate gasped, "—Mai! Stay in your room for now, and check if there is anyone waiting for you outside. If you can, find someone outside to help."
"Ma'am, who's banging the door?!" Mai asked in panic when she heard the loud bang from the phone.
"It's Marlon's man! He is trying to catch me and bring me to his mansion!"
Click.
Kate darted her eyes and saw the door had been unlocked from outside. The man must've used an access card from the receptionist, probably after delivering a threat.
Beep.
Kate quickly ended the call and pocketed her phone. She rushed to the second floor when she saw that the man outside began pushing his way through the makeshift barrier she made.
She looked around and tried to find a good hiding spot, and went inside the storage room instead.
"Tsk, what an annoying woman," the burly man muttered as he forced his way through the stuff Kate used to block the door.
This would've been faster if he was with his three other partners. But they were busy trying to incapacitate Michael Eckermann on the lower floor.
That man was a skilled military combatant that they couldn't defeat unless they went as three.
They tried to use a gun with a silencer against Michael, so they wouldn't make too much of a ruckus, but that man was able to use his surroundings to dodge bullets. Truly a monster that shouldn't be underestimated.
So now the man was left alone handling one pregnant woman while his partners were struggling to defeat Michael.
"It's okay, I can handle this myself. What can a pregnant woman do anyway? Making a children's pillow fort?" The burly man chuckled when he saw the chairs that Kate tried to use to stop him.
He used his strength and pushed the door as hard as he could, and the barrier that Kate created crumbled.
He closed the door behind him and looked around the dark apartment. He didn't see anyone around, so he guessed that his target must've been hiding somewhere.
The burly man licked his lips, "I've never played with a pregnant woman before. Can I do her before I give her to Mr. Grant? Surely he won't be mad, right? After all, this woman will be killed soon."
The burly man flipped the switch to have a better look at his surroundings.
This apartment was indeed luxurious, a proper apartment for the mistress of the Grant family's heir.
"Heh, that young master is stupid. He has so many girls wanting him, but he chose to go with an old, average woman instead."
The burly man walked around the first floor, and didn't see any sign of the pregnant lady. He tried to search around the bedroom where a stupid woman would hide, but his search was in vain.
"Well, there is no way she would jump out of the window. So she must be hiding somewhere," the burly man looked up, and grinned. "Playing hide and seek, huh? Oh, let me mess you up before they kill you, you witch!"
He rushed upstairs and looked around the corridor. There were about three rooms on the second floor. He checked the first and second ones, and it turned out it was just a gym and a second bedroom that was unused.
So there was only one room left that he hadn't checked, a small room that was definitely a storage.
The burly man smirked, he scratched his crotch and muttered, "Hiding in the storage, huh? What a dumb idea. But I didn't expect much from a woman who became a mistress and got pregnant. She will end up in the street anyway."
The burly man walked towards the storage room and twisted the knob.
Much to his pleasure, the storage had no lock, so he slowly opened it with a perverted smirk on his face.
The storage was dark, so he couldn't see anything, but someone suddenly punched him before he could find the switch.
"Urgh!" He covered his nose that must've been bloodied right now. He was caught off guard by the strength of the punch. This wasn't supposed to be a punch coming from a pregnant woman.
He took a step back, but the woman in the dark elbowed his chest and rushed out of the storage room.
The burly man took a second to balance himself. He saw a woman wearing pajamas and a sweater running towards the stairs.
Her long red hair was eye-catching, and she looked beautiful when the man caught a glimpse of her side profile.
He was glad he'd mess with a beautiful woman tonight, but he was also angry because this woman dared to struggle.
"YOU WITCH! I WILL CATCH YOU!"
The burly man ran towards Kate, who rushed down the stairs. She looked up and saw the man coming down the stairs at such a terrifying speed.
Kate gasped and was ready to leave the apartment.
She dashed as fast as she could to grab the door handle and leave, but the burly man caught her wrist before she could do so.
Kate turned her neck and saw a terrifying man, probably around six feet tall, with a big grin and a perverted gaze looking down on her.
"Where are you going, Ma'am? How about we have some fun first before we meet with Mr. Grant? I'm sure that you must've been itching down there without that arrogant bastard Henry around, right?"
Kate gritted her teeth, she grabbed something from her pocket, and said, "Don't you dare call my man a bastard, you filth!"
Kate took a screwdriver from her pocket and stabbed the man's stomach as deeply as possible.
"URK!"
