Chapter 2048
Victor made Eden exhausted, so she wanted to sleep late, but she was awakened by the ringtone. She fumbled for a long while before answering the phone. "Hello? Lyric."
But there was no sound on the phone.
"Lyric, what's wrong?" Eden's couldn't hear Lyric's voice, but the sound of wind and nervous breathing.
When Lyric heard Eden's voice, her nervous heart calmed down. She was saved, and the most important thing was to stall for time.
She was glad that the cold wind outside the window covered Eden's voice. Even she couldn't hear Eden's voice clearly.
The man could not hear it.
Gunner had almost taken off all his clothes.
"Don't struggle. You'll suffer a lot if you struggle. Come here quickly. I'll treat you well." Gunner approached Lyric step by step, and his evil smile was extremely ferocious.
"Get out! If you dare to approach me, I'll jump down from here!" Lyric stood up and climbed onto the window quickly, pushing it open hard. Gunner looked at her with a faint smile, "Ha-ha... You're really young and impulsive. It's not worth jumping off a building for such a trifle."
At the same time, Eden sensed something wrong. There was a strange man in Lyric's house. She immediately went downstairs to find Victor. "Victor, where are you? Victor..." Eden ran downstairs barefoot and called him more and more anxiously.
Victor was talking to Lucian on the phone. When he heard Eden's anxious cry, he came out in a hurry.
Eden went downstairs barefoot in a hurry. When she was about to walk down the stairs, she fell down heavily and lay on the floor.
"Eden!" Victor rushed to her.
"Ah... No..." Eden felt painful, and she was worried about Lyric, so she burst into tears in an instant.
Victor helped her up. She was crying sadly, and her face was grazed. He asked worriedly, "Eden, I'm here. What's wrong? Huh? Did you have a nightmare?" She fell down, and Victor's heart ached so much for her.
Why was she in such a hurry?
"Eden, are you injured?" He looked at her tearful face uneasily.
Eden quickly grabbed his hand, "Go to Lyric's house. Something bad has happened to Lyric. Call Jasper. He's closer to her."
"The password to her house is... Hurry up!"
"Okay. Don't worry. I'll call Jasper first. Wait for me here. I'll get you some clothes now."
After saying this, Victor ran upstairs while calling Jasper.
"Hello?"
Jasper had just driven into the housing estate.
Victor said angrily, "Hurry up! Something bad has happened to Lyric. The password to her house is... Hurry up and save her. We'll be right there."
Jasper was stunned, and his mind was in a mess. How could something bad happen to Lyric?
He woke up early in the morning to buy her breakfast. Why did something bad happen so suddenly?
Ansley!
Jasper's heart skipped a beat. After entering the housing estate, he parked the car on the side of the road, got off and rushed to Lyric's house.
Victor took the clothes for Eden and put them on for her in a hurry. Then he wore the shoes for her before they went out promptly.
On the way, Eden called the police.
At this time, the phone hadn't been hung up yet.
She could hear the man and Lyric's voices.
"Victor, hurry up. That man wants to rape Lyric. He's a beast. Jasper hasn't arrived yet. Lyric said that she would jump off the building. It's very dangerous to climb onto the window on such a cold day." "Okay. I've driving as fast as I could. Don't worry." The wound on her face was bleeding. When the lights turned red, he took out a tissue to wipe the blood on her face.
"Does it still hurt?" He looked at her with distress. Why was it so difficult for her to have a good sleep?
"Yeah!" Eden sniffed. She was very depressed because she fell down early in the morning.
"Lyric hasn't hung up." Eden was very jittery.
"It's okay. Don't be afraid. Jasper is almost there." Victor comforted her in a soft voice. When the lights turned green, he whizzed down the road.
Ansley was very mad because they had wasted a lot of time.
She walked over and knocked hard on the door.
"Gunner, hurry up! Do you want her to attract the attention of all her neighbors?"
"Shut up!" Gunner's cold voice came from inside. With wicked eyes, he looked at Lyric who had leaned out of the window.
He liked to emasculate those hot-tempered and stubborn women.
It was exciting enough to have sex with her!
"This is the 25th floor. If you jump down, you will commit suicide. You are at home alone. Who will know that we have been here?"
"You'd better come down obediently and give me the property ownership certificate. I can let you go." Gunner smiled gently. If he was not short of money, he wouldn't have taken such a risk. Ansley, that idiot, was wanted by the police. He was the only one who could sell the property ownership certificate. A few million dollars was enough for him to enjoy himself for a long time. "Get out!" Lyric's entire body was cold, and her big eyes were blood-shot. It was too cold. She couldn't hold on any longer.
"Don't come here. Let me tell you. The property ownership certificate isn't here. You won't get it even if I die." Lyric's voice was trembling.
"Impossible." Gunner did not believe what she said.
"Humph!" Lyric took a deep breath and her frozen hands gradually became weak.
"I always forget this, that and the other. In order to prevent me from losing these important things, my mother put the property ownership certificate in another place."
Lyric didn't know if he would believe her, but she had to stall some time for herself.
Eden answered her phone call and heard the conversation between her and the man. She would definitely call Jasper and ask him to come here to save her. So, she only needed to hold on. "Alright, don't get excited," Gunner said as he approached her.
Obviously, he knew that Lyric had reached her limit. It was minus ten, and she had been sitting outside for several minutes. She was shivering, and she couldn't hold on any longer. Gunner approached her step by step.
Lyric was in a trance. Seeing that Gunner had taken a few more steps forward, she roared with all her strength, "Don't come here!"
She leaned out a little more, and most of her body was out of the window.
Gunner didn't dare to move anymore. He just wanted money and didn't want to kill anyone.
Jasper was so lucky that he entered the elevator as soon as he went downstairs. When he reached the 25th floor, he went straight to Lyric's house. He had known the password a long time ago. He was very nervous, and his hands trembled as he typed the password.
The sound of the door being opened alerted Ansley.
Ansley tensed up and looked at the door nervously with a pale face.
A tall figure walked in. Seeing Jasper's handsome face, Ansley was so scared that she took a step back in fear.
