Seven Years Chapter 9
Jeffrey was like seeing hope, excitedly holding my hand."I was kidnapped for three months. At first, they thought I was worth a lot of money and treated me well. They scared me every day, but they didn’t really hurt me. They gave me a few pieces of bread every day. I couldn't eat them. But later I got used to eating bread."Then they called you and told me to scream a little harder. What did you say? You said my screaming was horrible, and they should call your secretary if they needed anything. Not long after you hung up the phone, one of them kicked me in the stomach, and I toppled to the floor with the chair."Gradually, they began to do whatever they wanted. Because they realized no one cared about me anyway. They punched and kicked me every day, using me to vent their anger."I saw Jeffrey's body start to tremble. He couldn’t take it anymore? There were more."Later, they couldn't get the money and slowly lost their patience. Whips, steel needles, clubs, and the curling iron that

The hospital smelled awful. I woke up with a headache. My body seemed to fall apart.The argument outside the ward grew more and more intense, gradually reaching my ears."No wonder Audrey tried to keep a distance from us after she came back. She must have thought we abandoned her!""Jeffrey, you are such a bastard. How am I going to explain this to Audrey’s parents?""Dad, Mom, I didn't expect that either. I just wanted to teach her a lesson."A crisp slap came over.It was followed by a few muffled grunts from Jeffrey.I thought it was Richard hitting him again, but it wasn't until I heard Helen's scream."Mr. Pearson!"Kash!I wanted to get out of bed, but I ended up falling on the floor. I found my leg was broken. My room was on the second floor. I didn’t die after I jumped down from above.Hearing the noise, Kash rushed in from outside. He looked terrible. Stubble grew on his chin as if he hadn't shaved for a long time."Kash."I picked up the fruit next to the bed and threw it at

After I was discharged from the hospital, Kash took me to the police station. With his help, those kidnappers were all caught."I heard that after Mr. Pearson retired, he went to work as a bodyguard for the rich. Why did he come back this time?""Haven't you heard? A rich young lady had a crush on Mr. Pearson. And that lady was kidnapped. Mr. Pearson came out to save her."I sat outside the corridor, eating the cake that Kash bought for me while listening to the gossip."Hey, why are you sitting here alone? Where's your family?"I pointed inside the room.Kash came out with a dark face.The two officers stood straight at once."Mr. Pearson!""You two, stop gossiping." Kash pulled me up from my chair.The two officers’ eyes widened. They couldn’t believe I was the female leader in their story."Why? I think it's quite a catchy story."Kash was speechless. So were the two officers.

Kash got rewarded and a title because he participated in this case.He was a little embarrassed. After all, he did that for me."You deserve it. You're going to be on our family book for saving me."Kash held the umbrella for me as we bought groceries and headed for home."You have a family book?""Yeah.""Please you must write me in your family book. How about I tell your parents tonight? We can go to their graves."I didn’t know what to say.The whole story was that there was an emergency before he disappeared. He had no time to wake me up. He just put on the clothes and went out. I was still so scared after I knew the truth. So when Kash came back, he apologized to me for countless times. He said, fortunately, there was a week's food in the refrigerator, and it was enough for me before he came back. But he didn't expect that I would go out to look for him, and I was even captured by Jeffrey back to the Chaney residence.Before dinner in the evening, I nestled on the sofa, holding m

On the day of our getting married, I told the Chaney family. In the evening, I and Kash went to the Chaney family for dinner.Nowadays, I could only eat a little bit of food. As my husband, Kash supervised me strictly.Helen grabbed my hand and asked with a smile, "When will you two have a wedding? Tell me in advance. I will prepare it for you."Richard took out a diamond necklace. It must be worth a lot of money. "Helen bought it when you were eighteen. Now it’s time."I accepted it and thanked Richard.Jeffrey didn't show up the whole time. When I left the Chaney residence, I felt that someone behind me was looking at me. As soon as I looked back, there was no one there."What's wrong?" Kash asked me."Nothing."Jeffrey stood in the darkness, holding a picture. His eyes became wet. It was a photo of him with a girl when they were young. But that bright and arrogant Audrey, with him in her heart, could never come back.
Seven Years Chapter 1
The day I walked into the city barefoot, I was on the news.”The Chaney family's adopted daughter was kidnapped for months. She escaped back, dirty and smelly, with clothes torn apart and feet covered in bruises. No one could imagine what she had been through.”Countless cameras focused on me. I watched the crowd like a walking death as if there was no soul in me.The former Audrey Houston died. That shiny, innocent, and passionate Audrey had gone. She was destroyed by those kidnappers, especially Jeffrey Chaney.Soon, a group of bodyguards dressed in black suits made their way into the crowd. The leader was called Kash Pearson. I knew him. In those seven years, every time I pestered Jeffrey, it was him kicking me out of Jeffrey's office and apartment.Kash never showed politeness to me as Jeffrey ordered."Ms. Houston, Mr. Chaney is waiting for you in the car. Please."Kash was surprised to see me in such an embarrassed state. He didn't expect me to look this miserable.I nodded and t
Seven Years Chapter 2
We drove back to the Chaney residence. Jeffrey ordered someone to take me to the bathroom. I refused the servants' help. But I asked them to bring me a long dress from my old closet.After a while, they finally found a long-sleeved dress, similar to a student's suit. No one defined what a student should wear. But as I looked at myself in the mirror, I did look more like a student.Before I was kidnapped, I received an acceptance letter from a top foreign design college, and now, it had been three months since the reporting time."Thanks."The servants were shocked, not expecting me to thank them.After the kidnap, I was essentially the same as them. They were the servants hired by the Chaney family, and I was the daughter hired.Pushing the door open, I saw Jeffrey standing on the stairway waiting for me. He half leaned on the railing and looked at me. He then snorted."Audrey, what’s wrong with you? Dressed like this?"What? Jeffrey thought it was another childish act of me trying to
Seven Years Chapter 3
After dinner, I was called to Richard's study.Richard was not that decisive businessman in the company, but a patient and kind father, asking me, "Audrey, you've liked Jeffrey since you were a child. Do you still like him?"I shook my head.I liked him for seven years, humble and painful. I never gave up. But this time, I went through hellish torture.I didn't dare to like Jeffrey anymore.Richard got my answer, pondered for a moment, and regretfully said, "Never mind. Maybe you can not be our daughter-in-law, but you will always be our daughter. You are good and beautiful. It is Jeffrey’s loss."He took out a bank card from the drawer. "This is what your parents left for you. There are 700 thousand dollars. They asked me to keep it until you grow up."700 thousand dollars... The ransom was also 700 thousand dollars.In the days of being kidnapped, I once resented my parents. Why didn't they take me with them, letting me suffer such torture?It turned out that they thought about my fu
