Chapter 495: By hook or by crook

She fell asleep on the bed, waiting for what would happen next. But it was a restless one as she kept opening her eyes when she heard a noise either outside her door or the window.

She still had not come up with a plan, but she was not giving up yet as she opened her eyes to a slowly darkening room. She wondered where her husband could be and how he was doing.

"Hang in there, Alex. We will find a way out of this." Dani could only hope and pray that Nick had not harmed him.

But, Nick was a vengeful man. He probably had inflicted pain on Alex in more ways than one. She could never rely on his humanity because Nick had none.

However, the footsteps had stopped just outside her door, alerting her of their presence. She quickly stood from the bed and grabbed the blanket, preparing herself for her unwanted visitors.

She had to stop thinking of Alex for now. Because she had to save herself first, she thought, as the door was unlocked from the outside.
