CHAPTER 42: CHAPTER 42: THE LAST FRENZY IN DESPAIR

Gu Yan propped herself up on the table with one hand just to stand steady, her heart already frozen with fear.

President Liu flexed his legs, casually wiping his bloody hand on his clothes, approaching her with a lecherous smile.

Gu Yan felt an overwhelming panic in her heart, stumbling backward.

Suddenly, her hand touched a wine bottle. She paused, glanced at President Liu who was now close, and without hesitation, she grasped it.

At the moment President Liu lunged at her, she lifted the bottle and smashed it down on his head with force!

However, due to her unclear mind, the bottle missed its mark.

Even so, Gu Yan hit his shoulder, and the bottle shattered instantly, embedding in his shoulder, blood seeping out, showing how much strength she had used.

Both President Liu and Gu Qin were shocked by Gu Yan’s moment of ferocity, staring at her dumbfoundedly. In her eyes seemed to be the last madness born from despair!

Completely reckless, not even fearing death!

After striking President Liu, Gu Yan opened her eyes wide, holding the shattered bottle toward them, struggling to move toward the door.

President Liu was rendered speechless by the pain in his shoulder, watching helplessly as she backed to the door.

Gu Qin, with an unwilling look, moved to stop her, but was frightened back by the sharp, bloody bottle in her hand.

"Gu Yan, think it through, once you walk out that door, finding another chance to save your dad is impossible!"

Gu Yan seemed not to hear her and continued to retreat.

President Liu gritted his teeth, shouting darkly, "Gu Qin, call my men, have them come to stop her!"

Upon hearing this, hope lit up again in Gu Qin’s eyes, how could she forget, someone like President Liu wouldn’t come alone, there must be others outside waiting.

She hurriedly turned around, fished out a phone from President Liu, and dialed his men’s number as he instructed.

"Get over here immediately!" As soon as the call connected, President Liu roared angrily, startling the person on the other end, who quickly hung up and rushed over.

A hint of pallor appeared on Gu Yan’s face as she quickened her pace, urgently unlocking the door to run out.

President Liu, with a dark expression, had Gu Qin help him chase after her.

If people knew that woman escaped from him, especially in such a condition, how could he hold his head up among his peers!

Gu Yan ran like a headless chicken down the hallway, the rising heat inside her making her feel helpless and her head dizzy, nearly collapsing several times.

But she couldn’t fall, once she did, she would only be dragged back to that hell, subjected to humiliation and abuse!

Leave this place!

That was her only clear thought.

"She’s here! Quickly, catch her!"

The voice behind her sounded like a nightmare, forcing Gu Yan to push her exhausted body to run as fast as she could.

"Faster, hurry! You useless lot, can’t even catch a woman!" President Liu’s furious shouts echoed in the hallway, sounding like a death sentence to Gu Yan.

She was terrified! Knowing only to run with all her might, not daring to look back.

The hurried, chaotic footsteps got closer, causing Gu Yan’s heart to race, as if it would leap right out.

She couldn’t be caught, couldn’t!

In her dazed state, she failed to see the path ahead, suddenly crashing into a wall of flesh, stumbling back, almost falling if not for grabbing the wall instinctively.

She hit someone, her heart racing in fear, thinking it was President Liu’s men.

Frenzied, she looked up, only to meet a pair of deep, penetrating eyes.
