Sh wrote down.


    Anger surged within Lindsey as she clenched her fists, unable to contain her emotions.


    “Then why did you marry him?”


    Sh lowered her sleeves to conceal the bruises, her lips trembling, seemingly burdened by unspeakable secrets.


    Observing Sh’s distress, Lindsey retrieved the room card Andrew had provided and ced it on the table in front of her.


    “This is his condition for letting me see you.


    ”


    In a daze, Shprehended the significance of the room card.


    Tears trickled down her face, yet her acting prowess enabled her to converse with Lindsey as if nothing had transpired.


    Meanwhile, after Andrew left, he essed the application Linked to the bug.


    Lindsey’s request to meet Sh alone initially unsettled him.


    Yet, reassurance washed over him upon hearing their conversation-it was merely a casual exchange between two women, nothing out of the ordinary.


    It appeared that he had overestimated that woman.


    She was a rookie agent, likely seeking to curry favor with the former renowned actress.


    However, unbeknownst to her, Sh had long beenpletely under his control, obediently submissive, and too fearful to defy his demands.


    Andrew deactivated the application and messaged Lindsey.


    “Have you finished talking? I can’t wait to see you.


    ”


    Lindsey set her phone down in front of Sh, disying a text message for her to see.


    She then wrote in her notebook, “I decided to meet you despite everything.


    When that jerk made his request, it was clear he wasn’t a good man.


    I guessed that perhaps you had to disappear from the public view for a reason, so I needed to understand it personally.


    Sh, I genuinely want to help you.


    You have a bright future ahead.


    Remember, you were once adored by many as an actress… Don’t forget the numerous fans and audience eagerly awaiting your return.


    ”

    Lindsey’s words struck Sh deeply, causing her to burst into tears.


    Lindsey chose not to push Sh any further.


    Instead, she extended her hand and gently grasped Sh’s cold, slender hand on the table, silently imparting her strength to Sh.


    Sh made a bold effort to hold back her sobs and eventually managed to cease her tears.


    She looked up, her previously lifeless eyes showing a spark of resolve.


    “Before I married him, he was incredibly good to me.


    Back then, I didn’t recognize the kind of person he was.


    Butter…”


    Sh’s fingers tightened as if gathering her remaining courage.


    “He r@ped me, tookpromising photos and used them to force me into marriage.


    I discovered I was pregnant and felt I had no choice but to marry him.


    He pressured me to exit the film industry using our child and those nude photos… Since then, he has kept me locked up in the house like a prison.


    He’s aware of everything I do within these four walls at home.
