“O-Okay.” Tyler quickly opened the front door.
Once he did so, the gang took Tina out quietly and went to the turf club. They tossed the sack on the
ground, then Sonia went up to her, opened the bottle, and poured the water on the sack.
When she felt the cold water drenching her, Tina shivered and woke up. She realized she was in a
claustrophobic spot, and she couldn’t see anything. When she rummaged around and realized she was
covered by something rough, she knew she was in a sack. Her anger flared, and she tried to struggle
free. “You worked with Sonia to kidnap me, Tyler?” she growled. Tina was no idiot. There weren’t that
many residents in the villa, and only Sonia and her gang would do this to her.
At the same time, Tyler was standing beside Sonia. “How did she find out I’m working with you guys?” he
asked Sonia in a lowered voice.
“She’d be an idiot if she didn’t.” Charles smacked his head, so Tyler tried to kick him back, but he failed.
Charles stuck his tongue out and ran away in case he got kicked again. Tyler was a basketball player
after all, so he was taller than Charles even though the boy was a lot younger. If that kick connects, I’d
be in bed for days.
“Alright, cut it out.” Sonia stopped them before they could make a ruckus.
The boys stopped obediently, not unlike students following their teacher’s orders.
Tina’s face contorted with rage when she heard Sonia’s voice. “So it is you, Sonia. How dare you do this
to me?” What kind of sack is this? I can’t get out of it.
“Why wouldn’t I?” Sonia sneered. “You tried to kill me multiple times. This is just a mild counterattack.”
Tina thought she had a point, but she wouldn’t let that get to her. “What if Toby finds out about this?
Aren’t you worried?”

“Why should I? He’s not even my friend.” Sonia rolled her eyes.
“Laugh all you can.” Tina snorted. “Toby will only hate you more once he finds out about this.”
“So what?” Sonia asked calmly.
Charles pouted. “Hey Gray, you think that’ll rile Sonia up. You can’t be thinking that she still likes Toby,
can you? I told you she fell out of love with him a long time ago. She doesn’t care what he thinks.”
The news was shocking to Tina. “Impossible!” She doesn’t like Toby? That’s a joke. Everyone knows how
much she has liked him since their uni years. That’s why she endured his family’s humiliation for six
whole years. She can’t have fallen out of love with him.
“Look, I don’t care even if you don’t believe it. Let’s do it, guys.” Charles was getting impatient, so he
wanted everyone to start.
Tina’s heart sank, and her voice trembled. “W-What are you guys trying to do?”
“You’ll know soon enough.” Zane rubbed his hands while chuckling evilly. He looked just like a common
goon, and that made Rebecca roll her eyes.
Everyone surrounded Tina and started beating her up. She was a woman though, so they didn’t use
much strength, though it was enough to cause her pain. The pain was one thing for Tina, but the
humiliation was unbearable. Since she was in the sack, she had no way of knowing where the attacks
came from. All she could do was block her face with her arms, and she bit her lip, refusing to even cry
out in pain. I won’t forget this. I’m making all of you pay sooner or later.
Sonia told everyone to stop after they had beaten Tina up for a few minutes.
Charles swung his hands. “That was satisfying.”
“The feeling is mutual.” Tyler nodded.
Zane rubbed his chin, looking unsatisfied. “She managed to hold it in though. That must have hurt, but
she didn’t scream. Not satisfying enough for me.”
“Who cares? As long as we get to get back at her,” Rebecca retorted.
“True that,” Zane answered.
“Alright. Untie the rope and let’s go home,” Sonia said.
At that, Charles went over to unravel the rope.
“Take a look at her.” Sonia pointed at Tina.
“Sure.” Charles opened the sack, and Zane turned his flashlight on so everyone could see the state Tina
was in easily.
She was still curled up, but apparently, she passed out, for her eyes were tightly shut. Her face and arms
were bruised, obviously because she was abused.
“It’s nothing. Just minor injuries. She’ll be okay after a few days.” Rebecca went down to check up on
her.
Zane arched his eyebrow. “You’re a doctor?”
Rebecca stood up and answered calmly, “No. I used to be a bodyguard, so getting hurt was part of my
job. I got used to it, so I know some basics.”
On the other hand, Sonia thought Rebecca’s true identity was more of a mystery now. She first thought
Rebecca was a rich family’s young lady who came to work at Paradigm Co. disguised as a normal girl.
After all, she did help out when Sonia was getting back at the Stryders, and she had to be powerful to
pull that off. But after Rebecca said she used to be a bodyguard, Sonia’s first assumption was debunked.
No matter who she was though, the most important thing was Rebecca was on her side.
“You used to be a bodyguard, Miss Harper?” Tyler looked at Rebecca, his eyes gleaming.

“Nope. Just wanna ask if you know any martial arts?” Tyler asked.
Rebecca nodded. “Technically, yes.”
Her answer excited him. “Can you teach me then?” Boys loved martial arts, after all.
“No.” Rebecca refused without any hesitation.
Tyler was crestfallen, but only for a moment. He then quickly picked himself up. “Can you be my master
then?”
“I don’t take disciples.”
“But you can still teach me, right? Tell me how.”
“No, I won’t. Just give up.”
“Aw… Pretty please?”
They slowly left Tina behind on the field. When they were out of sight, Tina suddenly opened her eyes
and sat up. She glared at the air, her gaze filled with venom and hatred. “Sonia… Charles… Zane…
Tyler… Just you wait!” she mumbled menacingly, then she stood up despite the pain and hobbled back
to the villa.
When Tina came back, Sonia and the others had gone back to their rooms.
There wasn’t anyone in the living room, so Tina went to the coffee table and poured two glasses of water.
Once she was done, she took a deep breath and splashed herself with the water. After she got her face
and hair wet, Tina messed her hair up and tore her clothes, making herself look more injured. Then, she
went upstairs and put on a crying face as she knocked on Toby’s door. “Toby… Toby…”
Toby woke up the moment he heard the voice. He sat up and massaged his temples, looking confused.
A moment earlier, he had a dream about Sonia and her child. In that dream, Sonia gave birth to the child
successfully. It was a boy, and it was his son. He was delighted, but when he was just about to name the
child, he heard Tina’s voice. Is this a dream as well?
