Chapter 145: It Is You
Kate was no longer the person Jimmy had first known, who drew a straight line between the black and the white in this world. She didn’t deserve to be called his friend. Even her lingering here for a little longer would sully his innocence and purity.
She sighed as she thought about this.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
Jimmy, I am leaving now.
This time it will be forever.
We won’t see each other again.
If there is a next life, you’d be better off not to meet me again.
Kate turned back and wiped her tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief. After she walked half of the path, she saw another lady coming face to face with her, carrying a bouquet in her hands.
That person took a glance at her belly and made way for her.
Linda Galvin walked to Jimmy’s grave and saw the bouquet of lilies. She turned back to see the back of the other woman she had just met. She thought of the handkerchief wringing in her hand and her reddened eyes, and she sighed. They were grieving for the same person.
And looked to the grave again and seeing the man in the photo, her tears surged up.
Linda Galvin lingered a long time in front of Jimmy’s grave before she left. She drove her car here. The road was quiet, and very few cars passed by. After she drove for a while, she saw a car stopped in the middle of the road strangely. When she passed it, she saw from the window that the driver was sitting inside motionless with his head drooping.
Linda stepped on the brakes abruptly.
She opened the door and ran over to the car. The driver’s face was white, and his chest was oozing blood.
She was shocked. She thought maybe she’d better leave it and not get into the trouble herself. But she then thought of the person she visited just now in the cemetery, and she got the courage.
Linda looked around to make sure there was anybody there. Then she took out her phone.
When she was going to dial 911, a pink handkerchief on the floor near the back wheel caught her attention. It looked familiar, and she thought of the pregnant woman she had seen just now.
The back door of the car was not locked. She pulled it open and saw a woman’s purse on the seat.
It was the third time Kate had been kidnapped in her life.
Their car was driving back home when suddenly a person rushed from the slope on the roadside and bumped into the car before fleeing.
The driver was in shock. He got out of the car to check the person. However, the person who was supposed to be either seriously injured or dead jumped up and stabbed him in the chest.
As they were fighting, another two people ran down the slope, and before Kate knew what was happening, she was drugged and taken away.
After Kate woke up, she found herself in a pitch-black room. It should be a basement because the air smells moldy. Both her hands and feet were tied, and she was lying on a single bed.
She felt nervous. This time was more serious than the last two times because she was not alone.
After a while, the small door was opened, and two men came in.
Kate recognized the head immediately. “It is you.”
The man laughed, “Right. Nice to see you again. How is your brother?”
Kate bit her lips, “What do you want?”
This was the person with whom she had negotiated for Max’s freedom. He looked down and out now, with stubble on his chin and more malevolence in his eyes.
“I know your man is somebody. But my bros need to earn a living, so we have to take this business.”
The baldhead behind him showed lasciviousness and swept his eyes over Kate. “Bro, this chick is nice. Being pregnant is even better.”
“Don’t think about it. This one cannot be touched.” The man said, and then he added, “At least for now.”
The bald-headed man’s eyes flickered. Then she could be touched later?
