Chapter 26: Escape plan 1
Lani doesn't want to fall into a miserable life in the future. Losing freedom, having to submit to the will of others. Sometimes even being treated cruelly, not like a human but a slave. Selling herself to pay the debt on behalf of her father was never something that Lani thought of saying, intending to be a filial son, willing to volunteer to forget himself to save his biological father. Before Lani's eyes was the prospect of her body being tortured, her spirit tortured. That is definitely a terrible thing. Even though Lani is the type of person with a heart, evil, intrigue, cunning, she also has a weakness, that is fear. Fear of the unexpected life, fear of death. Lani knew that there would be no love story as romantic as a master and slave novel. Or at least some unlucky Lani let that miracle happen to her. Reality is always harsh when people only live with money and material things and forget about human love. So Lani fell into the wrong hands, the tragic end was inevitable. The more she thought about what she was about to go through, the more Lani couldn't stand it. Damn it! Right now she was silently cursing her own father. Why did Enoch pile up debt and then couldn't pay it, causing Lani to be implicated? Now, if you scream, who will save Lani? She deserves the bitter fruit she received.
"Dad... Please save me, don't let them take me away." Lani couldn't stop crying and screaming. She also struggled to get rid of the pincer-like arms that were gripping her weak wrists. Lani turned a pleading look to her father. For the first time, Lani revealed her inherently weak nature. Before, Lani was always arrogant, arrogant, and didn't look at anyone. And today Lani was scared to death, had to live true to herself.
Oh, the scene looks so pitiful. From the outside, the location is convenient to observe. The man who was watching the happenings in the house with a group tube felt a little moved. But that person could do nothing because no one ordered him to interfere in the Enoch family's affairs.
"Oh Lani, my darling." Enoch looked at Lani with a look of guilt, pain, and despair. Lani was everything that Enoch considered most important, in need of protection. No matter how cruel Enoch was, he did not treat his own daughter badly. Enoch was indeed a good father to Lani. As for Vera, it's not, after all, cold water is always water, how can it be compared with the blood of her own flesh?
The scene of clinging, struggling until the end. The big brother roughly dragged Lani out the door. For a fleeting moment, Enoch seemed to be energized by some force, he decided to act now before it was too late.
"No please don't take my daughter away..." Enoch yelled, rushing with all his might to pull her towards him.
Enoch grabbed Lani's hand and pulled, but the big brother couldn't fit, he held onto Lani's other hand. That pain was what Lani felt in her arms. Her body was pulled to the sides, like an endless tug of war.
"Not much more to say..." shouted the big brother, while the other two men struggled to pull Enoch away from Lani.
The two sides struggled, the sound of people scolding, people begging, crying created a thick atmosphere, causing a great noise.
No one noticed Vera, who was lying on her stomach on the floor, her face covered by her long hair so the men couldn't see what she looked like and they didn't seem to have any intention of approaching. just to see what the body lying motionless on the floor looked like.
After a long struggle, the weak Enoch was finally pushed to the floor. The fall caused a great concussion, Enoch's body was in severe pain in his back and head. Meanwhile, Lani was being held by the big brother. Lani's bones would probably be crushed if she dared to resist.
"Father." cried Lani, feeling worried for Enoch. He must have been injured. Old age is very vulnerable. Lani wanted to step over to his father and help Enoch up, but that intention would never come true because the big brother wouldn't let Lani go.
"Father are you okay?" Lani asked chokingly, although he hated and hated Enoch for putting her in this situation, the fatherly love was still present in Lani's heart. At least a simple question Lani can do.
Enoch groaned and managed to stand up. He couldn't say anything about his current state. Everything is really a mess.
"You guys are cruel." Lani saw her father like this and turned to shout at the big brother. Lani scolded no more respect. Suddenly Lani became brave, did she think she was going to die anyway. So before you die, scold yourself, curse your enemies to make your mouth happy?
"You bastards, you have no conscience. How can you push an old man like that, what if he dies or gets injured? Can you take responsibility?"
Big Brother ran his hand over his face, to wipe away the spit that Lani had just splashed on his face. That's crazy for other people. Lani eats lobster liver, how dare you yell and make a fuss?
Enoch looked at Lani fearfully. He didn't want Lani to be punished just for his outburst. In contrast to Enoch, Lani was still glaring at the man in front of her with indignation, anger as if there was a deep animosity between the two sides. Lani recognized her bravery, daring to challenge all the delinquents.
Enoch thought that his brother was going to hit Lani so he was ready to jump in and take the hit for his daughter. But that did not happen, the big brother was scolded like that, but he just appeared calm instead of angry as many people mistakenly thought.
"Good girl, there's no use in resenting me, it won't change anything. If you want to blame, blame your abusive father, borrow money but can't pay it." The big brother said to Lani, then looked at Enoch and added: "Do you think you are worthy to be a father? Do bad things and make your daughter suffer the consequences. You are such a waste, trash of society."
Enoch resigned himself in silence, unable to argue back because it was the truth. Enoch didn't think about Lani when he spent all his money playing cards. At that time, Enoch simply thought that Vera's inheritance could help him pay off his debt, but Enoch did not think about cases like Vera's disappearance for a month. And now the money still cannot be taken from the bank. Enoch planned to take Vera to the bank to withdraw money tomorrow, but then he was interested in having fun with his friends, organizing drinks. Enoch was basically subjective and looked down on creditors. Enoch thought the creditor wouldn't come looking for him again when Enoch was supposed to be away two weeks ago. But life is very unpredictable, Enoch did not expect the creditor to have let people stay outside, waiting day and night for Enoch to appear.
The big brother finished laughing at Enoch's tragedy. A despicable man, just sitting there helpless, unable to do anything to save his daughter. Then, without wasting any more time, the rude big brother Lani walked out of the house. Once again at a time when everything is almost over. Lani's voice imploring the bullies to let her go had the effect of waking Enoch in time. Enoch jumped to his feet, shouting for the big brother to reconsider.
"I will pay double the loan amount in both capital and interest, just give me one more day."
With no response from the other side, Enoch shouted again: "Please believe me, if you don't receive the money tomorrow I will let you take her away."
"You think we'll believe your lies?" The big brother stopped walking, turned around, and glared: "Stop playing tricks. There won't be a second time, you should think about the consequences before you disregard our warning."
"I'm not kidding you guys." Enoch denied the accusations: "This time I will definitely get the money. Now I will immediately go to the bank to withdraw the money for you, please give me some time."
Enoch tried to convince. And Lani seemed to have stopped agitated, she gradually regained her composure. Lani brainstormed to find a solution. As she rolled her eyes, she looked at Vera lying on the floor. Suddenly A dark thought arose. Of course, Lani wants Vera to be the one to take her place in this ordeal. So why not try to change your own fate with the fate of others?
Although she did not know if the plan was successful or not, Lani was determined to implement it. Who knows, everything will go as Lani wants. Enoch has both paid off, and got rid of Vera from Lani's life. One arrow hit two birds, it's really worth the risk.
"Please give my father one more chance." Lani suddenly spoke up, she was afraid that her plot would be discovered or failed, but still tried to keep her composure to save herself: "What my father said is true. There"s really money. It's in the bank right now."
The big guy turned to look at Lani. Lani hid her tension, looking directly at the other's face showed the affirmation that her words were completely true.
"Right." Enoch continued to help Lani convince the ringleader: "It's true, please give me some time to go to the bank to withdraw money."
Look in turn from Lani, then to Enoch. The name of the agent came out to consider.
"Why do they have to do that?" The wise big brother asked: "How to believe what you say is true? If you had money, you would not have brought us to pay our debt. What to wait until today, after we have visited and brought Follow your beloved daughter back with you."
"I didn't have time to do it because I had to be hospitalized due to an accident." Enoch explained: "Please, believe me, I intend to go to the bank today to withdraw money and bring it back to you. But you came here first..."
Enoch spoke, fearing that his lie would be exposed and that the villains would not believe it.
"You speak so easily. Do you want to trick children? You see us as children who are easy to deceive?"
The big brother yelled, not satisfied at all at what Enoch showed. The old man didn't look believable at all.
"I didn't mean it... I... What I said..." Enoch was choosing his defense when the big brother interrupted again:
"Honestly, what are you planning to buy time for? Are you waiting for the police to come to the rescue? It's best not to have stupid thoughts, it's easy to get hurt, okay?"
Enoch was so confused by the accusation that he didn't know what to say. Well, if the big brother is really crazy, then it's useless to say anything. Doesn't change anything.
The question was for Enoch, but Lani was quick to answer:
"It's not what you think." Lani said softly: "A while ago, my father and I were so scared that we forgot about important things. Now, after we calm down, we remember going to the bank to withdraw money."
As if afraid that the big brother would retort her words, Lani said immediately without giving the big brother a chance to interrupt:
"Did you see that girl lying on the floor over there?" Lani alluded to Vera, she also pointed at Vera, who woke up from a dream and heard what was happening: "She is the key to getting the money in the bank. She owns the change. great plan."
Only then did people notice Vera. Lani, after attracting their attention, continued:
"She really has money and we just need to take her to the bank so that she can sign the papers to be able to withdraw the money. How much depends, the amount of money she owns up to tens of millions of dollars."
Lani's words are very attractive, but not everyone easily believes them. This move of Lani carries a double-edged sword, she knows it but still despite everything.
What will the result be?
