My Mute Wife

Lexie woke up soon after.

When I woke up, it was dark around me, my head was still covered with black cloth, my hands and feet were tied up, and the whole person was thrown in the back seat of the van.

The van sped down the highway, not knowing how long it had been driving, and finally arrived at the place.

“Get the man down and send him in.”

Lexie was all tightened up and followed closely by two men carrying her from the car.

“Brush”, the black cloth on the head was ripped away, the overhead bright chandelier shining in the eyes, the light is very blinding, she had a hard time adapting, lowering her head constantly to avoid.

“Just don’t untie the rope for her, lest she be dishonest.”

“Yes.”

Lexie didn’t even have time to see who her captors were, and by the time she adjusted to the light in the room, the men were out and she was left alone in the large living room.

Because her hands and feet were tied, she sank into the couch and reluctantly rolled over to sit up.

Looking around the surroundings, there is a familiar feeling.

No sooner had she remembered what this place was than the sound of an engine came from outside the villa.

“Drip” the sound of the door opening.

“Mr. Howard, the man is inside.”

Lexie looked up from the couch and saw the person entering the door and her heart fluttered.

The black suit is straight, Alan stood in the doorway, a glance at Lexie was tied hands and feet, a sulk instantly floated on the black eyes, turned around and gave the man at the door a slap.

A “pop” echoed through the doorway.

“Who did it?”

The corners of the man’s mouth were beaten with blood, covering his face and shaking like a sieve, “Mr. Howard …”

“Mr. Howard, the person who brought it in was a novice, and they didn’t know it was Mrs.”

Jack was busy helping to put in a good word and glared at the group of people, “This little thing can’t be done properly, in case the wife gets hurt, can you be held responsible?”

Alan entered the room and met the woman on the sofa with all eyes, frozen in the atmosphere for several seconds, he untied the ropes on Lexie’s hands and feet, the white skin were strangled out bruises marks.

Jack hurriedly went to get the medicine box and came over.

“Give it to me.”

“Yes, Mr. Howard.”

After the sound of the door closing, the room fell into silence, leaving Lexie and Alan alone.

Alan took out the ointment and went to pull Lexie’s hand.

Lexie shrank back a little and avoided his gaze.

Alan frowned, “Edith has the Mitchell family in the hands of overseas bank account information, you peacefully give birth to the child, do not think about anything, when the matter is closed, you are still Mrs. Howard.”

Lexie was indifferent.

Alan got impatient and grabbed her wrist to forcefully medicate her.

Lexie suddenly struggled and pushed him away with some unknown strength and tried to run for the door, but unfortunately she was dragged back and slammed down on the sofa before she could even take a step out.

Alan pinched her cheek, “Where are we going?”

Lexie’s eyes were red and deadly as she stared at Alan.

She was going to grandma.

He had someone kidnap himself from the highway, but grandma is still there, grandma alone also can not drive nor know the way, what will happen, she dared not imagine.

Alan, however, thought she was just trying to escape.

“Don’t challenge my patience with you, you think you can just walk away with your grandma? That old man named Liu, you just don’t care, do you?”

What have you done with Grandpa David?

Alan’s cold eyes sank, “If anything happens to the child, guess what will happen to him?”

Lexie’s face was ashen.

Why?

Why do people around you have to be threatened like this one after another?

I have never had the intention of harming anyone, but why does fate never favor me, I have to torture myself so much, and even my friends and family around me are suffering along with me.

The tears slipped silently and splashed on the back of Alan’s hand.

His tightly furrowed brow trembled for a moment, and the force in his hand unconsciously relaxed.

After a few moments, he let go of Lexie.

“From today, you will live here until the baby is born.”

Lexie covered her neck and slumped on the couch, coughing.

[Is it that if I give birth to the child, you will let me go?

What the Howard familythe Mitchell family entanglement, what divorce and remarriage drama, she no longer want to get involved, she now only want to leave J City with grandma this place of right and wrong.

Alan wants the baby, then give him the baby.

She doesn’t want it.

Alan’s face quickly sank.

It’s amazing that she’s still bent on leaving.

At that moment, there was a noise from outside.

“What’s going on?” He yelled impatiently toward the door.

Jack hurriedly pushed the door in, “Mr. Howard, they’ve got someone who’s been lurking around outside the door.”

“What people? Bring it in.”

Several bouncers twisted the arm of a teenager and came in.

“Let go of me, I’ll walk on my own!”

The teenager has blond hair, black body shirt stained with dirt, torn jeans washed to see the original color.

Although a look at the uneducated, but so pressed by a few bodyguards, but all look untamed, a fearless face.

Lexie’s face changed as soon as she saw him.

“Lexie, are you okay?”

“Shut up and be honest!” The bouncer kicked him in the crook of the leg.

The teenager stifled a grunt and fell to his knees.

Lexie rushed to go over, but was stopped by Alan.

“What are you doing? You let go of Lexie!” the teenager was still on his knees with a vicious look on his face.

“You guys know each other?” Alan glanced at Lexie.

[He’s innocent!

Lexie gestured sharply toward the teenager, [What are you doing here?

Patrick couldn’t read sign language and thought Lexie was asking him for help, “Don’t worry, I’ll get you out of here, this son of a bitch, when I get out I’ll sue him until he goes to jail! Illegal detention!”

Jack hurried to Alan’s side and lowered his voice to say something.

Alan gave the teenager a cold sweep.

“Your name is Patrick?”

Patrick’s brow furrowed, “You know me?”

“Now that you’re here, stay here and keep you Lexie company.”

“I’ll stay if you tell me to?”

“I heard you only have one Alzheimer’s grandmother left in the family?”

“What are you doing?” Patrick’s face turned pale and he struggled to get up, but he was pressed hard to the ground by the bodyguard.

His cheek pressed against the floor, he glared at Alan indignantly, “What do you have to come at me, if you dare to touch one finger of my grandmother, I’ll get your whole family killed!”

Lexie suddenly turned pale and stumbled over to cover Patrick’s mouth.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“Ummmmmmmm, sis you, oooh …”

Alan said, “Why don’t you ask your sister if I dare to move?”

“Stay here honestly and don’t play tricks, or else it’s easy to make a man disappear from J City.”

After dropping these words, Alan gave Lexie a look and left with a wide stride.

Alan’s voice still echoed in the room.

Lexie’s hands and feet were cold and her arms were shaking as she held Patrick.

He said this not only to Patrick, but also to himself.
