At that moment, the speeding truck suddenly hit the brakes.
This sudden stop was too abrupt, and Lily Gray and Joan Wellington were originally just thrown onto the floor.
Without being secured, and with their hands and feet tied, their bodies violently slid towards the front wall of the compartment due to the sudden stop.
"Bang—"
Lily Gray, who had just been struggling to stay conscious, collided with the inner wall of the compartment without any preparation.
Her head hit a hard object.
She didn't even have time to call for help, only feeling a sharp pain in the back of her head.
The next second, her world once again plunged into darkness.
"What happened? Did the police catch up?"
"Impossible!" the kidnapper leader denied categorically.
They had chosen a backroad.
They had studied the kidnapping route in advance.
They would avoid main roads as much as possible, and only take the highway for a 20-minute stretch when there was no other choice.
