She felt dizzy and a little nauseous, then blinked her eyes, feeling confused and disoriented.When she opened her eyes, she realized that she was in a deep dark room lit only by the flickering candle light at the foot of the bed. Her memory flashed immediately. The memory in the eerie kitchen made her startled and sat up from the bed, only to realize that her hands and feet were tied to the head and feet of the bed.Valerie stared in fear. Both hands and feet were spread apart on the feet and head of the bed, each one was tied with a handcuff.

Right at the large table attached to the foot of the bed, nine blue candles arranged

“You can't keep her handcuffed like that! She'll be bruised and sore to death later!” Don, Jose's right hand and loyal servant, frowned when he saw Jose come out of the room where Valerie was locked up.Jose raised his eyebrows. “Why do you care about her so much, Don?”Don looked directly at his master with a gaze full of meaning that only Jose could understand. “Sir knows I will care!” he looked at his master bravely, knowing that his master would agree with his actions. “I will send the maids and guards to help Miss Valerie to remove the handcuffs.”Jose fell silent, knowing that even if he did not allow him, this stubborn old servant would definitely carry on with his intentions. Sometimes Jose thought that Don wasn't afraid of him. The man was with him too long to be afraid.“Do what you want to do, but make sure the male bodyguard doesn't see anything. Let the female servant help remove the handcuffs!” Jose's gaze sharpened. “Valerie is completely naked under her blanket, and if

Take a shower?Did this guy mean that he was going to take a bath here… with Valerie? Valerie's face was flushed red; apart from the warm steam of the shower, it was also because of what Jose said as if he did not care.“do not you think you can harass me just like that!” Valerie looked at Jose angrily. “Get out!”However, it seems that Valerie's anger doesn't bother Jose. That man just stood there comfortably, seemingly indifferent to her nakedness, while Valerie was getting more and more uncomfortable, trying to take her eyes off that part of Jose's body.I can't see it, she thought. Although then she couldn't help herself and realized that the man was very aroused.God, will she end up being raped in the bathroom by Jose?“Aren't you interested in enjoying the joy of bathing with me, honey?

“We've searched all the houses around here that were bought on behalf of foreign businessmen. There are a lot of them, but we've narrowed it down only to the houses that were bought in the last few months.”May, one of George's men, looked at her boss nervously. “The data is too extensive. We do not know whose name to trace. Without definite data specifications, we have to check thousands of houses.”George took a deep breath. “And even then it doesn't necessarily work. It could be that The Slayer buys or rents a house on behalf of someone else, or uses a local name, so we won't be able to track it down.”George's gaze wandered, staring at the vague photo of the killer posted on the white board of his office. “Okay, May, you can go. Let me know the results of the team's investigation later.”May gave her boss a look full of admiration for a second before walking away from his room. George was his most handsome and young boss. Usually the man always seemed calm and in control, leaving

George and his team are desperate. They couldn't find a trace of Valerie anywhere. The Slayer seemed so cunning and skilled at hiding that they couldn't track his whereabouts. In the room, George was pensive and wringing his hair in frustration.His subconscious has even thought that Valerie was killed by the heartless Slayer. Angered by the thought, George rose to his feet, grabbed his jacket and put it on, and stepped outside. He needed coffee, otherwise he might die of frustration.With long strides he came out and over the sidewalk. The cold wind immediately hit his face, carrying water vapor. George tilted his head up and saw the dark and overcast sky.It will rain soon. His mind was wandering as he stepped into the cafe he had been subscribed to. The cafe was at the end of a busy street so it was quite busy. Even though it is a little crowded and busy, it does provide excellent coffee. The aroma is fragrant and thick with a vegetable cream that is very suitable when combined.Ge
