In the evening, when the sun set, Yuna was awakened by the knocks on the door.

"Yuna, go and open the door."

"..." Yuna covered her head with the blanket, thinking, "damn, I'm sleeping!"

After a while, Yuna couldn't fall asleep and suddenly realized that it was Wesley's voice.

She was rather shocked. "Am I with Wesley!?"

She opened her eyes and saw the medical equipment in the ward; only then did she remember that she had gone to Mexico after Wesley got injured.

There was a knock on the door again; Yuna reluctantly turned over and got out of the sofa. She opened the door and saw Jay standing there.

Jay handed Yuna an insulated lunch box and said, "Miss Xu, Brother Gavin ordered this for you and Brother Wesley. The restaurant just sent it here. I've checked, and it's safe."

"Oh, thank you."

Yuna closed the door in bewilderment. "Wesley said I have to cook for him. Why does he change his mind?" She thought.

"Is it because the doctor said my hand can't get wet?"

Well... She would rather believe that Wesley had wanted to scare her at noon. After all, he had always been picky. She was surprised that he could eat the disgusting lunch she had made; if he continued eating what she cooked in the future, she would be scared.

"It's impossible that he's worried about my injury. Wesley has never cared about me!"

After dinner, Yuna wanted to take a shower but she found that she had no luggage with her except her cellphone and purse.

She walked to the sickbed, staring at Wesley with a determined look on her face and said, "No matter how many guys are going to stop me, I must go out. The shopping mall will be closed soon!"

Wesley glanced Yuna and got her point. He handed her a bank card and said, "No password is required. Jay will go with you."

Yuna had prepared herself to argue with Wesley, without expecting that he would be kind to her. After a while, she came to herself and asked, "Are you... going to let me out?"

Wesley gave Yuna a cold look and said, "You have three seconds to get out of my sight."

Yuna took the card and turned to run. She reached the door and then turned back, staring at Wesley.

"Hey..."

She grinned, her beautiful eyes shining with unique radiance. Wesley frowned; before he could ask her anything, she suddenly cupped his face in her hands and gave him a big kiss on the cheek. After that, she fled and disappeared from the ward.

Wesley stared at the door for a long time, stroking where Yuna had kissed and subconsciously turned his lips into a smile.

He thought, "What a damned girl. I'll pay you back!"

At that time, Wesley didn't realize that he wasn't able to decide whether Yuna would return.

...

Outside the hospital, Yuna was in a cheery mood, which was noticed by Jay who was with her on the way to the shopping wall.

Jay stroked his chin and began to think.

He had seen many kinds of women around Wesley; after they stayed with him for a day or at most a month, they would leave Wesley with the check he gave them, as if they had never appeared.

They had one thing in common: all of them had come out of Wesley's room with their head lowered and the timid ones of them had even trembled.

Wesley had never done anything to them. However, Wesley had a bad temper and when he woke up in the morning, he had always been in his worst mood, so it was difficult for others to stay with him; even the guys who worked for him had always chosen to report to him after his breakfast.

Yuna was the first one that could get out of Wesley's room with a smiling face.

When they reached the shopping mall, Yuna was glad that she found her favorite brands there. She picked several suits in a store without hesitation and paid the bill.

Jay asked in surprise, "Miss Xu, why didn't you try them on?"

Yuna handed the card to the salesclerk, then she looked back and smiled. "Don't you hate shopping with women?"

Jay gave her an awkward smile and said, "I've... never gone shopping with a girl."

"I see... Now you're playing a key role in my shopping time!" With that, Yuna handed piles of bags to Jay.

"..." Jay was temporarily at a loss, then he smiled and said, "I got it."

The outer garments she bought were all in Jay's hand. Yuna wanted to buy some underclothes, but she would be embarrassed if Jay followed her. She pointed to an underwear store and said, "You can find another place to sit and wait for me. I'll go there alone."

Jay looked over and got her point at once; he blushed and said, "I, I am waiting for you here. You, you can call me if you are ready."

Yuna was clear about her size, so she directly took some underwear to the checkout. The cashier smiled and said, "Miss, your boyfriend is very handsome!"

Yuna thought, "Boyfriend? Is Jay here?"

Yuna was about to turn, and she suddenly felt a hard item against her back. She had been circled by an arm around her waist from behind, which looked romantic; however, a man was threatening her with a gun.

She couldn't be more familiar with that man; even if he tidied up his appearance, she could still recognize him from his sinister temperament; it was Rowdy.

Rowdy circled Yuna's waist with his arm as if he was protecting her. He whispered, "Go."

Yuna said thanks to the salesclerk and moved toward the gate with Rowdy

Hey, Miss, you forgot your clothes here," the salesclerk said.

Rowdy looked back and said, "Someone will come and get it. Please tell him Miss Xu leaves with me."

Outside the store, Yuna subconsciously looked for Jay but didn't find him.

"He's been trapped by my men. Wesley's men are not so able as I've thought." Rowdy heavily pointed the gun at Yuna's waist and said, "Don't try to escape. You're my hostage not the undercover person. Pretend that you're scared."

"What do you want to do?" Yuna asked.

"I'll show you something. And I have some questions for you!" Rowdy pushed Yuna into a car and said to his driver, "Go!"

As the car started, Yuna was blindfolded. With her hands and feet bound together, she stopped struggling and calmed herself down. "I can explain to you about the offer."

"Explain to me?" Rowdy gave her a cold smile and said, "Well, I'll give you a chance."

"Wesley told me his offer was 120,000." Yuna frankly said, "When he came to Mexico, he heard about your offer. He wants to crack you down so he offered less than 110,000. I'm telling you the truth."

"..." Rowdy was silent.

"Instead of kidnapping me, you might as well go and find out the mole!" Being treated that way, Yuna gradually lost her patience. Realizing that Rowdy was silent, she said in surprise, "You don't trust me, right?"

"Of course I trust you." Rowdy sneered and said, "As you trust Wesley like foolish."

Yuna knew what Rowdy had implied so she said, "I've thought that he has sniffed me out and taken advantage of me to give you false information. But when I asked him about it, he looked as usual. By the way, if he finds that I'm the undercover person, he will kill me. Then how could you kidnap me like this?"

"And you?" Rowdy tore the eye-shade off Yuna's face and stared at her with his viper-like eyes. "Can you say you didn't change? Can you?"

Yuna looked into Rowdy's eyes, then she sneered and said, "You know-I fell in love with Wesley. Do you think that I've told him about my true identity and betrayed you?"

Rowdy seized her by the throat and said, "I can't trust you!"

"You can." Yuna calmly stared at Rowdy and said, "I know Wesley well. Even if I tell him who I am and tell him the truth about you, he will kill me. Rowdy, I don't want to die let alone die for him. I've got a lot of things to do and I have to take care of my grandmother, so I must live."

"Well. You'd better do what you say!"

Rowdy released Yuna; at the very moment, the car stopped and the driver said, "Mr. Kent, here we are."

As Rowdy opened the door, Yuna saw a heap of rubble, in which there was a shimmering light. It was too dim to light up the dark night, and it deepened her panic and uneasiness instead of her sense of security.

"What in hell do you want to do?" Yuna asked.

"Don't you want to know what you are to Wesley?" Rowdy said in a viper-like voice, "I'll show you."

Rowdy rudely dragged Yuna out of the car and pushed her into a dilapidated cabin in the rubble. Before Yuna could keep her feet, all of a sudden-

With a clapping sound, Yuna was slapped hard across the face, then she felt her mouth bleeding.

In Rowdy's eyes, she had given him false information before investigating, which led to his loss; a slap was not enough.

Yuna felt a ringing in her ears and a sharp pain within her brain. For a moment, her vision became blurred as if she had stepped into a mist.

She shook her head and caught her sight, while the pain within her brain disappeared as if all of that had been her illusion.

Rowdy pinched Yuna's chin and said, "Will Wesley be worried about you?"

Yuna recalled Wesley's warning; he had told her not to be caught by Rowdy's men; then she asked whether he would rescue her, but Wesley said, "What do you think?"

She reckoned Wesley wouldn't go to rescue her.

Yuna smiled and said, "If you want to threaten Wesley with me, that will be pointless. He won't come. If I die, he will soon find another man to take over my work. I'm nothing to him."

"Really?" Rowdy pushed Yuna into the corner and said, "What if I make you look worse?"

Before Yuna could get up, she saw Rowdy take a plastic basin from his men; then the water in it poured all over her like a transparent water curtain.

At that cold night, the basin of cold water made Yuna clench her teeth and huddle; while she didn't stop thinking about how to save herself.

Rowdy fiddled with Yuna's wet hair, staring at her red and swollen cheeks, then he smiled with satisfaction and asked, "Yuna, do you hate me?"

Yuna just said, "I asked for it."

"Fine, then." Rowdy asked for a camera, then he aimed the lens at Yuna and said, "Let's see if Wesley will exchange you with his business."
