The Woman From Hell
Chapter 970

Chapter 970

I looked at the buns on the table. After a moment of hesitation, I ate them anyway.

I was unsure if these guys would shed off their pretense as lawyers, hence I must ensure I had the strength to resist when the time came.

I did not sleep the entire night. I felt awfully sleepy after eating, so I leaned back in the chair and dozed off.

While in a daze, I felt someone walk up beside me and grabbed my arm, seemingly injecting me with something. I tried to open my eyes to resist but my eyelids were just too heavy.

After a very long time, I finally woke up and looked at my arm. Sure enough, there was a needle hole in my arm.

Before anything could come to mind, the door opened and the two women from before walked in.

They walked up to me and looked at me, saying, " Please come with us, Ms. Lane."

I looked at them with a frown, "What time is it right now?" "Two in the afternoon," one of the women replied.

I pursed my lips. "Has my friend and a lawyer arrived?"

The woman replied coldly, "No."

My heart sank. These were not Linda Corporations' lawyers. Horton would never find out where I was.

The women held down my arms and dragged me out o f the room by force.

They then took me into a room full of medical equipment. My instincts instantly kicked in. "What do you intend to do to me?"

A man in a white coat sitting in front of me answered, "Don’t panic, Ms. Lane. I'm just doing a physical examination on your heart."

I glared at him. "Why are you giving me a physical examination when you're suspecting that I stole the company's top secrets?"

"This is a formal procedure. All you need to do is give u s your full cooperation."

I roared furiously, "Do you know that this is illegal?"

The women clenched my shoulders harder. "Please cooperate, Ms. Lane."

I took a deep breath and said no more.

I was like a fish on a chopping board, at the mercy of others.

If I wanted to get out of my current predicament, I had to act when an opportunity arose before they showed their true colors. I must not act on impulse.

The male doctor drew my blood after that, and just when I thought that he was done, he wanted to do an intimate examination as well.

I clenched my fists and looked at him with cold eyes." What reasons do you have for conducting an intimate examination on me?"

The man smiled faintly. "If you contracted any virus, then that would be a reason for you to steal our company's top secrets."

Rubbish!

My countenance darkened even more. "My apologies but I have the right to refuse. I suspect that you're not lawyers but a criminal organization.”

The woman standing beside me sneered and started threatening me. "You’d better not ask questions, Ms. Lane. Do your best to cooperate with us or you’ll suffer the consequences."

I stood up from the chair and coldly said, "You're not cops. You have no right to detain me no matter what I’ve done."

After a pause, I made a final attempt with the last glimmer of hope. "I need to contact my family. Now!"

The woman remained unmoved and looked indifferently at me. "This isn't the time for you to contact your family, Ms. Lane. Please cooperate with u s and finish the examination.”

"Never!"

I spotted a phone in the doctor's white coat out of the corners of my eyes and raised my hand to push the doctor without thinking.
