Thaddeus replied, "Whatever you want. Please, drag her away, so as not to be an eyesore."

I was dragged outside like a corpse by two men. They opened the door. The light outside was blinding my eyes, but the sky was as blue as ever. I couldn't help but think that a few hours or even a day ago, it was the same blue sky. But that time I was free and safe. At this time, I was dying.

After being dragged out of the room, I heard screams coming from the next room. Listening to the voice, it sounded a bit like my boyfriend, Eugene Pritchard. It seems that he didn't escape from this devil's den either. Now my heart was even more desperate as if it was drowning at the bottom of the sea. At this moment, I suddenly saw a group of people walking past. The leader of the bearded man looked very familiar to me. In a flash of lightning, I suddenly remembered that I had also seen him in Lithuania!

He was that white-haired middle-aged man's personal bodyguard at that time. Now, I was even more certain that the man I saved was here. So with the last of my strength, I fought to break free from the confinement of the two people beside me. I dragged my almost crippled legs. I ran to the bearded man and fell to my knees with a thud. Without thinking twice, I hugged the bearded man's thigh. I only looked up at him. The taste of blood in my throat kept surging upwards. But I could only pop out a few words.

“Three years ago in Lithuania, I saved people. I drew a tattoo for Uncle Graziano.”

The bearded man frowned, seemingly thinking about the content of my words. Then, he suddenly smiled.  Seeing him smile, my taut heart had a moment of relaxation. ‘Did he recognize me?’ I asked in my heart. But the next moment he kicked me away.

The bearded man roared in dissatisfaction, “Where did this wild dog come from? The blood is all over me. It's in vain that I only changed my clothes today. You two losers! You can't even take care of a woman. What's the use of keeping you!”

As he fumed, the two men who were originally escorting me quickly ran over. “Mr. Ferdinand, I'm sorry. It's all our fault for not being careful!”

While nodding and apologizing to him, one of them kicked me in the stomach. “Hei, bitch. What are you running for? Do you think you can run away?”
