Chap 53
Part 53.
The night sky was clear, illuminated by the full moon, with stars adorning it.
Unlike Clara, she was in a dark place with her hands and feet tied.
Clara shifted her body against the wall. The room was dark. There was no light at all.
“Where am I?” Clara murmured. She felt the stifling, dry air. She didn’t hear anyone else besides herself.
She tried to remember what had happened to her earlier in the afternoon. After returning from Nadia’s house, she couldn’t remember anything.
Clara began to move, feeling around with her hands despite being tied up. She kept moving, feeling around with the palms of her hands, searching for her shoulder bag.
Clara found what she was looking for with her hand. A leather bag that Joe had bought for her some time ago.
Clara felt relieved because her phone was in there. She immediately reached for the flat object, searching for Joe’s number and trying to contact him.
Unfortunately, footsteps approached, and the next moment the door opened. Clara managed to send her location and close her phone screen before the man standing at the door turned on the light.
“Are you awake?” Alex asked. He stepped closer to Clara, observing the 17-year-old girl.
“Who are you?” Clara asked. She had never seen the man in front of her before. He was very strange because she didn’t meet many people every day.
“It turns out you are very beautiful, Clara!” he said without addressing Clara’s question.
“Don’t come any closer, tell me who you are and why you’re imprisoning me here!” Clara shouted. Her throat was dry, and she felt very thirsty. However, she still had a lot of energy. Thankfully, she had eaten a lot at Nadia’s house earlier this evening.
“Not only beautiful, but you’re also brave! It’s no wonder Joe likes you!” he said again. He looked at Clara with an unusual gaze.
“Who are you, and how do you know Uncle Joe?!” Clara fought her fear. She moved backward until her body leaned against the wall.This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
“Be quiet, Clara!” Alex ordered. His eyes focused on Clara’s slender legs. He became more interested when he saw Clara’s knee-length skirt.
“Don’t mess with me, or I’ll scream!” Clara threatened. With her hands and feet tied, she had a hard time moving.
“Scream if you want, no one will hear you!” Alex replied! He was sure there was no one in his warehouse building. Besides, it was far from residential areas, and one had to pass through quite a deserted plantation.
“Be careful, you dare do anything, Uncle Joe won’t forgive you!” Clara threatened through gritted teeth.
“Oh, I’m scared, very scared, mercy!” said Alex with a mocking expression. It was as if he was genuinely frightened by Clara’s threat.
Alex’s phone rang. He stopped in his tracks. He took the sleek, sophisticated object from his pants pocket and looked at the name displayed on the phone screen.
“Wait a moment, Clara, I’ll take the call, and then we’ll continue this exciting session!” Alex said, winking teasingly at Clara. Then, he quickly left the room to answer the phone.
Of course, he didn’t forget to lock the door again because he didn’t want the girl to escape.
The phone call connected.
“Hello, Vivian!” Alex greeted.
“Where did you hide Clara?” Vivian asked on the other end of the phone.
“Toward the summit, not too far from the center of Jakarta, at my agricultural warehouse!” Alex replied.
“Good, keep Clara there until tomorrow morning. I’ll come there and give her a warning,” Vivian said enthusiastically. She was confident that her plan would succeed.
“Okay, I’ll have fun with her tonight!” Alex said, his voice sounding very cheerful.
“It’s up to you! You never change, always a crocodile. Already have a wife, ask me to be a second wife, and when there’s a virgin, you snatch her too!” Vivian retorted, knowing Alex’s character.
“This one’s different, I won’t let her slip away. Clara is very beautiful with a proportional body!” Alex praised.
“Hah, a crocodile is still a crocodile!”
“Hehe!”
“Enjoy yourself!”
“Got it!”
The phone call ended, and Alex put his phone back in his pocket.
After the man who kidnapped her left, Clara picked up her bag again. The illuminated room made it easier for her to see. She reached for her phone and saw her messages had been read with blue ticks. It meant Joe had read her messages.
But when Clara tried to write a message, her screen suddenly went black due to low battery.
“Damn!” Clara cursed as she moved back to her original spot. She leaned against the wall again. In her heart, she kept praying for Joe to come and pick her up soon. She honestly felt very scared, but she wouldn’t give up.
Clara lowered her head. The images of Joe and Kimmy alternated in her mind. If only she had let Kimmy come along, or asked Joe to take her, or asked Mr. Joko to pick her up. Maybe by now, she would have reunited with her family.
“I’m so stupid!” Clara lamented. The words if, if, and if kept swirling in her head, giving her a sense of regret. “Please help me, Uncle, please help me!” she murmured with a voice that sounded more like a whisper.
Loud footsteps were heard approaching again, and the next moment they were replaced by the sound of keys clashing.
The door opened again. And the man who had returned looked at her more boldly. His gaze sharp and directed at Clara’s sensitive areas.
“Are you waiting for me, beautiful?” Alex asked. He opened his black jacket that he was wearing, throwing it to a random place.
“I refuse!” Clara replied with a loud and trembling voice. She moved to the right, to the corner of the room.
“I heard you’re still a virgin, but I’m not sure Joe has definitely wrestled with you on the bed!” Alex said. He began to unbutton his shirt one by one. And his gaze never left Clara’s beautiful face. The more he saw Clara’s fear, the more enthusiastic he became.
“Don’t come any closer, what are you going to do, I said stop right there!” Clara asserted, fighting against her fear.
“Clara, don’t be like that, I won’t force you, believe me, I want to give you something delicious!” Alex’s voice sounded tempting. He threw his shirt randomly. This time, both of his hands moved to undo the buckle around his pants.
“Help!” Clara screamed. With all her might, she was truly terrified.
Alex knelt before Clara. He brushed aside the hair that obstructed Clara’s beautiful face. Roughly, he caressed the lovely face with his fingers.
Clara desperately tried to free herself from Alex by moving her bound legs. She began to give up because it seemed like there was indeed no one else there.
