One Birth Two Treasures: The Billionaire’s Sweet Love

4443 The Other Side 412

Having returned from a beating, Hua Jin struggled to kneel on the ground and vomited a mouthful of blood after the thugs left. He looked up and struggled to move in Alice’s direction based on a blurry memory of where she would be.

His hands and feet were bound by chains. In order to prevent him from escaping, his eyes were also blindfolded. He moved to Alice’s feet and immediately leaned his back against hers, and also sideways against the wall.

Alice held out her hand. Immediately after, he stretched out his fingers and strenuously wrote on her palm. With the strokes he wrote, Alice struggled to identify the words.

The actor wrote a few lines.

“Just then… Gong Jie video-called them to confirm if we’re still alive.”

“Looks like he’s about to make a move.”

“Alice, don’t give up. We will be okay.”

…

Alice took a deep breath, as if the wounds on her face had gradually stopped hurting.

She extended a blood-stained finger and wrote on his palm. “I’ll persevere. You must persevere too!”

“Yeah.”

“We’ll wait for Gong Jie to turn up.”

“… Uh huh.”

The two of them struggled to use their hands to write on their palms and communicate with each other.

Soon, Natalia woke up as well. She opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling. In the corner, there were cobwebs. Her stomach was growling from hunger, but she knew that it was not mealtime yet. No matter how hungry she was, there was nothing that could be done.

“Will we die…” The girl muttered aggrievedly.

In fact, she was not afraid of death. Ever since they were abducted, Hua Jin and Alice had taken good care of her. At the very least, she was spared a lot of beatings.

Under the protection of Hua Jin and Alice, she did not suffer much other than not having enough to eat, sleep, and not having warm enough clothes. But because of this, Natalia’s heart ached.

Although she was young, she knew very well how much the actor and Alice had suffered for her. Because of her frustration and guilt, she could not hold on any longer. If she could, she would rather bear the pain for Hua Jin and Alice.

Delivery of food was during duty hours. The actor and Alice had already figured out that there were guards around the detention room, but this group of people was usually on duty for twelve hours. Moreover, another group of people would take over after twelve hours.

However, after so long being in the dark, the actor’s and Alice’s judgment of the time was completely blurred. Earlier on, the actor had been wearing a balaclava as he walked from the detention room to the other room. He had no idea what time it was. However, he vaguely guessed that it was almost time to rotate shift. At the same time, it meant that this was the fourth day since they arrived.

“The fourth day…” Hua Jin let out a long sigh.

“Hua Jin…” Alice lowered her voice and called to him in a barely audible whisper.

The actor turned and met her eyes. There were wooden planks nailed to the window, but the morning light spilled in through the gaps. By the faint light, he could see that Alice’s eyes were filled with anxiety.

“Are you scared?” After all, this was not Alice’s first encounter. However, this was the first time in his life that he had been kidnapped.

“Scared… Of course I’m scared…”

No one was unafraid of death.
