While her mind was thinking all kinds of things to forget about the irritation caused by the people in the hospital,

when she crossed an area without a street lamp, it was fine yesterday but today it looked broken. She didn’t suspect anything and started to walk towards the darkest road with less light.

Suddenly, a shadow crossed behind her. Someone placed a cloth on her face.

She let down her guard because of the sudden attack and inhaled the drug. Immediately, her mind started to be clouded by something, and she lost consciousness without any struggle.

The person holding the drugged cloth on her face for some time didn’t remove it immediately. He was cautious and only removed it after he felt her breath weaken; only then did he remove it from her face.

He signaled something with his hand, and a van slowly appeared in front of them and blocked the view from outside. Even if someone walked by now, they wouldn’t suspect anything.

"Boys, come on, carry her to our vehicle, act fast.

The one who made this deal ordered not to create any mess. Hurry up, everyone.

Once this matter is completed, we can gain a big amount of money from this deal. Everyone can get a good share."

As soon as he mentioned money, his subordinates acted like the wind and finished the work neatly.

I need to inform this to our leader. These people recruited recently are all money-minded; there is no sense of belonging to the gang. They need more discipline.

Acting this fast as soon as he mentioned money, he stopped thinking further. This matter could be handled later.

This black-clothed man was not the real leader here. He was just higher than them in the hierarchy inside the gang and was one of the closest subordinates of their gang leader, who could directly report to her.

He just took this job after informing the leader. Such a low-risk job—who would deny it? He came to know this rich woman a few years ago and had done many tasks for her.

After that, their vehicle started to move towards an unused closed factory outside the town. It was the regular spot for their gang dealing with this kind of thing.

When they arrived, there was already a car parked outside the factory.

"Out, everyone. Quickly carry the goods outside immediately."

After he ordered his subordinates, he directly walked towards the car, bent down, and gave a knock.

The car window slowly went down. Inside sat a beautiful white woman with black hair and brown eyes, wearing a dress from a famous luxury brand, and all her jewelry on her body were brands only worn by rich people. Her body reeked the smell of money.

"Madam, the job you ordered me to do was finished meticulously without any mishap.

Good. Tie her to a chair and call me when she becomes conscious."

After she finished speaking, the car window started to close once again.

As evening passed fully, the sky had grown completely dark. Lucy slowly regained her consciousness.

At first, her mind felt very dull and in a confused state, but as time passed, she soon gained some clarity and understood what had happened to her.

She tried to move her body, only to find that she was tightly bound to a chair with ropes.

She looked around the room, saw that someone was sitting near the door, and shouted at him.

"You, who are you? Why did you people kidnap me?"

Inside her mind, she knew that she didn’t have anything worth kidnapping for. She was not from a rich family, so they couldn’t gain ransom from her family.

When the man suddenly heard the shout, he awoke from his stupor and came to his senses. He looked at the woman they had kidnapped was now conscious, but he didn’t reply to her shouting.

He immediately opened the door and went to inform the boss about this matter.

Lucy watched the person react like this. She slowly calmed her mind and controlled the panic and tension in her heart.

No matter what, she needed to handle the situation in a calm way.

After some time, the closed door opened once again.

This time, a man dressed in black walked inside, directly went towards Lucy, and asked,

"I will come directly to the point. I do not like to harm women, especially a beautiful woman like you. As long as you answer our questions, you are free to go. We will drop you at the place where we picked you up."

Lucy didn’t deny anything at first like a hot-tempered idiot. She just gave the man in front of her a simple nod.

"Where is your friend Olivia? Give us the location of her place. Then we can go our separate ways."

Max gave her a gentle smile. If he could get what he needed without violence, why bother using unnecessary violence? This technique he learned from his leader during all these years accompanying her.

It was very useful. It could avoid creating many unknown enemies for them. If we offend a person we think is weak today without any reason, who knows what the situation will be like in the future?

Lucy immediately understood who these people were. That scheming woman even dared to kidnap people. It’s good that Olivia resigned and left the hospital. Who knows what kind of trap she was digging for Olivia in the name of marriage?

Lucy also didn’t fall for the gentle facade. At least she was relieved in her mind that the person had not started behaving in any indecent way.

But still, to avoid unnecessary suffering, she immediately told him,

"I will give you the information you want. How will you guarantee my safety?"

"Max looked at her and said, you know the name of the Black Veil Gang. You must have heard about our reputation, so you don’t have to worry about your safety."

Until now, their leader had maintained a somewhat good reputation among the public, unlike other underground organizations, which were more fierce and engaged in unnecessary bullying of the weak.

The people living in the area under the gang’s control always received the protection of the gang. No outsiders could enter and cause problems for the people living there.
