CHAPTER 284

Stupid Stupid Stupid

Stupid for believing Kayleigh knew the true reason Austyn married her.

Stupid for thinking Kayleigh wouldn't do anything to her in such a public venue.

Stupid for thinking Kayleigh didn't bring backup

Kira cursed herself, then cursed Rayleigh Woods.

She thought the actress had looked deranged, but she'd never expected Kayleigh to be so crazy as to kidnap her!

Kira was filled with self-reproach

Her stupidity had not only landed herself in trouble, but also dragged an innocent woman into it.

Kira struggled to sit up.

She scanned the surroundings.

They were in a giant cage, the kind used to transport big wildlife.

The cage stood by itself in a big empty room with concrete, unpainted walls.

There was a staircase leading to an upper level.

Kira scooted over to the woman, whose eyes were closed.

Kira nudged her. 'Hey, wake up."

Gwen's eyes fluttered open.

She touched a hand to the back of her head and winced in pain.

There was a big bump on the lower left part of her head.

Her attacker had hit her pretty hard.

Gwen closed her eyes when she felt the room spin.

"Are you okay?' Kira asked.

Given took several deep breaths and didn't answer.

we're locked up inside an iron cage. There's no one i outside.

Gwen swept her eyes over the room.

Kira was right.

The place looked abandoned.

The floor was covered in dust and strewn with yellowed newspapers.

It appeared to be either a disused factory or an old warehouse

Gwen pushed the wire mesh.

It didn't move an inch.

There was a huge padlock on the door.

"I tried," Kira said. "I couldn't break it or pick the lock

The padlock was on the other side of the door.

The holes in the wire mesh were too small for Kire to stick her hand through.

Gwen leaned against the cage wall.

Her face was pale.

Kira was afraid to touch her

She must be feeling very scared right now," Kira thought.

So was the

"But she'd had some time to adjust to the situation.

Her heart was still pounding, but it no longer threatened to jump out of her chest.

"I don't think I know your name, Kira ventured.

Maybe conversation could take their mind off things

"Reyes."

"Miss Reyes, I'm terribly sorry for dragging you into this."

Stupid Stupid Stupid!

Kira felt incredibly guilty.

Kayleigh's target was her.

Miss Reyes was just trying to help.

Gwen glanced at Kira sideways. "You know who's behind this?

"Thave an idea'

"Was it the woman you were talking to earlier?"

'I can't be hundred per cent sure." Kira didn't see who attacked her, but she remembered hearing a man's voice. 'But I think, yes, probably." Gwen rubbed her eyebrows

Her braided top lonnt was undone.

She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear

Her eyes lit up when she touched her earlobe, but then her heart sank when she realised her earring was gone.

Kira saw the rapid change in her expression. 'Miss Reyes, what's wrong?

'My earrings are missing. Gwen inspected the floor of the cage but didn't see her pearl earrings,

Kira didn't know what to say.

This was probably not the time to worry about their valuables.
