After Anya was violently shoved on the floor in the basement by the burly men, they locked the door


    and hastily left. Anya


    struggled to get up from the ground before she started to forcefully p on the door while yelling.


    “Hurry up and release me. It’s illegal to lock me up here like this!”


    “Open this door!”


    way


    However, after getting no response from countless yelling, she decided to stop and save her strength to


    think of a way out of her predicament. However, the only thing was, her phone was taken by Melissa


    and she was unable to call for help.


    She was hoping that Cindy was able to hear her pleas earlier and woulde in and save her.


    As Anya stood in the pitch ck, moldy, and damp basement, she forced herself to calm down as she


    would not allow herself to be toyed like this by the MacMin family. The MacMin family had treated


    her too ruthlessly.


    Ever since the incident with Evan which they had nned for, she should never have hoped for


    anything from them.


    It seemed that she would still have to rely on Mr. Granger to gather evidence to help her mother’s case.


    Anya realized that it would be pointless for her to think about her own matters at the moment. Since,


    she was familiar with the mansion’syout, she knew that there was a little door that could be opened


    in the basement. However, she would have to remove the door to get to it.


    Anya calmed herself down and carefully thought about her situation for a moment before she started to


    look for the light switch. She moved by the walls until she found the light switch. After the room was lit


    up, using her memories, she found the little door that was sealed up and was behind some rugged


    bags.


    If she wanted to get out, she had to pry the wooden nk open. Anya began searching for some tools


    to pry the nk


    open.


    Cindy rushed in the living room just as the burly men exited to the living room. It seemed that she had


    heard Anya’s call for help earlier, so she immediately got out of her car. Anya was nowhere to be seen


    when she entered.


    Cindy frowned immediately and started questioning every member of the MacMin family frantically.


    “Where’s Anya? Where have you guys hid her?”


    She knew that the MacMin family had always treated Anya poorly. She was also on guard when she


    apanied her there. However, She never expected those people to kidnap her in broad daylight.


    “You are responsible to everything you say, Ms. Xanders. Don’t you dare not respect your elders when


    you’re only this young.” The olddy eximed while casually sipping tea. It seemed that the olddy


    was quite the powerful person in the MacMin family and was not even bothered by the little brat,


    Cindy.


    “I’d obviously be responsible to everything I say. So, I am asking you guys, where is Anya? Where


    have you guys hid her?” Cindy approached them and continued to probe.


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    “Anya has already left, Ms. Xanders. Don’t you think you’re a little rude for asking us where she is? We


    can’t possibly strap her down now, right?” Anya’s step–mother, Melissa replied in a cold and sinister


    tone.


    “She left? Where did she leave from then?” Cindy probed. She was no fool and how could their simple


    statement possibly


    M

    send her away so easily then? “Let me tell you guys this. It’s illegal for you guys to hide her away.”


    When Anya told her toe along with her, she was trying to prevent such an ident from


    happening.


    ‘Look, isn’t Anya gone now then? She’s suddenly gone and not to mention, they were saying that she


    has already left? Cindy thought to herself. If Anya was to leave, she would have left from the main


    entrance and not to mention, how could she have not informed Cindy when she left anyway?


    “You have no reason for using us, Ms. Xanders.” Melissa scoffed as she was not in the mood to


    waste her breath on Cindy. Hence, she told one of the burly men, “Send Ms. Xanders on her way. Our


    family will not wee a guest that will simply use anyone of anything.”


    After receiving his orders, the burly man rolled up his sleeves and was about to send Cindy away.


    However, Cindy took a step back and immediately took out her phone and said, “I will leave on my own.


    However, before I go, I need to take Anya with me. I will be calling her now.”


    She immediately started calling her. However, both Melissa and the olddy did not seem to be


    bothered by her actions at all. Cornelius on the other hand did not want any part of this, so he left to his


    study instead.


    However, Cindy was unable to reach Anya when she called her. It seemed that her phone was


    switched off.


    This just further proved Cindy’s suspicions. Anya had no doubt been locked away somewhere by them!


    Why would Anya suddenly switch her phone off without reason? Since Cindy was unable toe up


    with an excuse, she frantically called the emergency helpline. She told the olddy and the ruthless


    Melissa while she called, “I will be calling the cops if you guys don’t hand Anya over now.”
