Chapter 1192
After crying for what felt like an eternity, Winona finally spoke up.
“Ever since you disappeared, Blossom and I have been searching for you. Then, out of the blue, the Thorne family reached out and said they had news about you. They asked if I wanted to know more p>
“They demanded ten grand for the information. I didn’t hesitate – I agreed right away p>
“But who would have thought? When we met, Blake suddenly knocked me out and tied me up. When I finally came to, I was in the Thorne family basement p>
“I screamed for you with all my might, but when you didn’t answer, I knew I had been duped by the Thorne family p>
“Then Sarah showed up, mocking and tormenting me, bragging about her and Zane’s escapades p>
“I was held in that godforsaken basement for over a month, then transferred to a new location, where I remained for more than a year p>
“In that new place, I ran into Lyra. Ha! She was so smug! Just like Sarah p>
Winona took a deep breath, her fists clenched, and her eyes burned with seething hatred.
For over a year, the torment from those two vile women had been her constant companion.
“I was angry, mostly at myself! Angry for not seeing through Zane’s true nature sooner p>
“If only I had realized it earlier, Lyra and Sarah would never have had the chance to bully me p>
“This past year has been a mix of fury and despair p>
“Five hundred days and nights wasted away in a corner, convinced I’d never make it out p>
“Then suddenly, they showed me photos and videos of Zane, and Lyra seemed particularly agitated. That’s when I sensed a change p>
“It had to be Zane testing me. But why now? Something must have triggered it p>
“So, I played dumb, showing no hatred towards Zane, pleading with him to rescue me p>
“Eventually, they even brought in a psychologist to see if I remembered anything from before p>
“I thought Zane would come and save me, but instead p>
Winona glanced at Keaton, “It was Mr. Huber who saved me p>
Keaton and Tarquin were sitting in the back seat, and Keaton chimed in,
“Tarquin
errand
bet
But if you want to thank
2 may 2it all up. I was just the
introduce me to some
nice ladies. I’m single these days p>
As soon as Keaton spoke, the air in the car lightened.
The tension eased a bit.
Winona sniffed, “I owe Mr. Huber a great debt, one I’ll repay someday p>
Keaton grinned like a peacock showing off its feathers.
“No rush, no rush. Just remember it p>
Winona: p>
Elysia asked,
“The Thorne family kidnapped you on Zane’s orders. Why did Zane suddenly target you? Did something happen p>
Winona gritted her teeth,
“Because found out about him and Sarah and asked for a divorce! He was
andified of losing everything
and ruining his good guy image. He wanted to kill me to keep me quiet p>
“Zane is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. He not only wanted me dead but also aimed to steal my family’s assets p>
“I was blind, letting a wolf into our home, nearly causing my own and my family’s downfall p>
Elysia frowned, “It’s not your fault. Zane was just a master of deception p>
Honestly, if you asked all their friends
Sam and classmates, not a
one would have had a bad
about Zane!
In everyone’s eyes, apart from his humble beginnings, Zane seemed perfect!
After all, you can’t see into someone’s heart just by looking at them.
Thinking about Zane’s intentions, Elysia frowned, speaking candidly, “Winona, Zane, he had his eyes on me too p>
