Chapter 2 Fear begins

Alice's grandparents are the owners of the famous old Bannett family in city C. They only have one daughter, Alice's mother, Robert Elliott. Because of the family connection to protect sustainable values ​​and help each other develop, the Bannett family has married with the Elliott family, which is also a family with a long existence and reputation. This has also made other families wary. Alice's father is David Elliott, a famous man in the business world.

Because marriage without love leads to coldness between both parties, it is clear that during the pregnancy when the first child was Alice, because of her reputation, she did not raise Alice and let Alice be raised by her grandparents. And after giving birth to their son Williams, who is 3 years younger than Alice, the Elliott family's relationship with Robert was less tense and much gentler than before.

After that brief meeting, Alice did not see her parents again until she was 6 years old when she had to go to school. At first, she thought she wasn't smart or obedient, so her parents hated her and didn't take her home to raise her. From that moment on, this little innocent girl started trying to study, hoping that one day her parents would love her.

Every year that passed, her academic achievements ranked first in the whole school, certificates hung all over the room, but her parents still did not pay attention to her even once.

During family meetings, because the grandparents did not want their granddaughter to be in danger, they had to leave her at home. She always wanted to be recognized by her parents, but every time they came, they would look at her with scary hateful eyes.

One afternoon, when she was 14 years old, her existence was noticed by other families. Some bad families intended to use her as a tool to exchange benefits between large and small families. . On the way home from school, a black car was slowly approaching behind her. Two men got out of the car and blocked her way. While not knowing what was happening, everything around was dark. When she opened her eyes again, she saw that she was lying on a large piece of wood with her hands and feet tied and her mouth gagged. She gently moved her body in pain and then noticed her surroundings. There was a small light bulb above her head so she could see. Seeing everything around her blurryly, she noticed that an old abandoned factory had a large door, surrounded by old oil tanks, and on the ground were streaks of dried blood that had not been cleaned, so she did it. There were dark patches on the floor and a more surprising point was that there was a person lying some distance away from her who was also tied up like her. His body was covered in blood, his clothes were torn, his body was severely scratched, and his leg was seriously injured. He probably lost a lot of blood and fainted. If he didn't treat the wound, he could die.

Alice gently nudged that person, he started to open his eyes and looked at her with a slightly panicked face as he struggled to sit up. Then the two of them helped untie each other. After having difficulty untying the rope, they talked for a few minutes. Then I found out that his name was Jack, who was 16 years old because he witnessed a group of people destroying the body. When he was preparing to run away, he was caught by the group of people, beaten, and then locked up here a day ago because he didn't have time yet. handle you.

Just as he finished speaking, the door suddenly opened and three tall, tattooed black-faced men walked in, looking at the two people with contemptuous eyes and saying:

- We're about to die together, then when we get down to the golden stream, let's confide in each other and get to know each other hahah.
