His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 1393 Visiting The Prison



Chapter 1393 Visiting The Prison

At dinnertime, as Jim raised his hand hard to take some food, Joey passed by and knocked his hand

scattering the food all over the floor.

"Ah, it seems as if your arm is broken, so you can't take the food for your dinner. How about not eating?

Or it will hurt. Ha-ha."

Joey's voice was dripping in sarcasm as he kept making snide remarks about him.

Jim missed breakfast. Not of his own volition, but mainly due to the fact that his arm had sustained

heavy damage when he got beaten up this morning. He felt so dizzy and hungry that he didn't mind

kneeling down and begging Joey for some respite from the suffering.

"Sir, I'm wrong. Please forgive me. Please let me go." Groveling on his knees, Jim tugged at the bottom

of Joey's trousers.

"Oh, what now? You want me let you go? Well, that depends on my mood." Joey curled his lips and

looked down at Jim, with a scornful expression.

He wouldn't allow Jim even the slightest bit of peace, because his employer had emphasized the fact

that Jim needed to be taught a lesson. They would force him to tell them where Shirley was when he'd

fall apart mentally. Joey felt as though he hadn't tested Jim's limits yet, so he wanted to play a game of

cat-and-mouse with him.

Then, Joey had a self-satisfied smirk on his face. He was sentenced into the prison because he had

committed a big crime. This time, the violence deep in his heart was totally aroused. He wanted to give

Jim a good lesson.

The blithe indifference in Joey's facial expression was an indication to Jim that he was never going to

taste peace again. His already weakened body, failing to hold on, suddenly gave up on him and went

out of consciousness.

Joey immediately knelt down and stretched out his hand to check Jim's pulse. He breathed a sigh of

relief when he found a steady pulse.

Without a word or warning, he stood up and kicked Jim in the stomach a few times before leaving him

there to suffer on his own.

This followed for a couple of more days, on repeat. One day, as Jim simply walked past Joey, he

suddenly turned around and yelled at Jim for disrespecting him and used it as an excuse to beat him to

a pulp.

One day, after having been subjected to relentless physical and mental abuse, Jim finally broke down.

He threw himself at Joey's feet and bowed his head.

"Sir, please, please, stop. I'll do whatever you want me to do. Please let me go. Please!" Jim was a

strong man, about 5 ft 9 in tall. Watching a man like that burst into tears out of sheer desperation was

not a common occurrence. Although the other prisoners were hard as nails, it was a rare sight for them

to witness something like that and they even felt pity for him.

Joey narrowed his eyes at him and said, "I can let you go, but you need to tell me where Shirley is right

now. I'm sure you know who I am talking about. The girl you kidnapped! Telling me the truth is your

one-way-ticket out of here. So, what will it be?"

All this time, Jim had no idea that Joey had been treating him like a dog for this reason. He nodded to

show his agreement without any hesitation or resistance.

"Okay, okay. I'll talk. She is in a wooden cabin in the north of the suburbs in Maple Town. It's the only

cabin with a big chimney. It should be fairly easy to recognize."

As he spoke, his snot and tears dripped down his face. Joey pursed his lips up and cast a thoroughly

disgusted glance at him. He wanted to torture Jim more, but unfortunately, Jim didn't have the fortitude

to put up a fight.

"Telling the truth was the first smart thing you've ever done in your life," said Joey, tapping his foot

against Jim's chin.

"I've told you everything that you wanted to know. Will you let me be in peace from now on?" Jim asked

cautiously, with his eyes filled with hope and anticipation.

"Don't worry, I don't enjoy dealing with a coward like you. Now that you have told me what I wanted to

know, if you can manage to keep your head down around here, I won't get you into trouble." Joey

smirked.

Jim felt utterly humiliated after being called a coward, but he didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction.

Putting on a flattering smile, he said, "Thank you. I'll stay out of your way, and you can bet on that."

"You'd better keep that in mind. Okay, now get out of my sight. Your face annoys me." Joey waved at

Jim gesturing for him to go away as he didn't want to see his mucus covered face.

Jim's smile froze on the corner of his mouth. He lowered his head and took a few hurried steps to get

away from Joey. He crouched silently in a corner lest he should attract Joey's attention again.

Jim never thought that the Lu family would come at him like that. All he wanted was the money but now

he was going to rot away in prison. He shouldn't have listened to Leila and kidnapped Shirley in the first

place.

In fact, he was so afraid of the Lu family, and he no longer wanted the ten million dollars.

He sighed in utter defeat and his face darkened. The only thought that could cheer him up was the Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

thought of having his revenge on Leila as soon as he'd get out.

During the visiting hour of the next day

"Someone's here to see you. Come with me!" the prison guard said to Joey, as he opened the door to

his cell.

The guard felt it strange because nobody had ever come to visit Joey before. He thought he had no

family or friends, since nobody ever visited him, until now.

What felt even more strange was that there were people visiting him more often now.

The prison guard put handcuffs on him and pushed him into the room.

Joey sat down and looked up to see David sat opposite him.

"How is it going? Did you find out where Shirley is yet?" David asked as soon as Joey sat down.

Even for a simple assistant, he dressed sharp and carried himself with a dignified look. Perhaps after

many years of working under Charles, a bit of his boss had rubbed off on him.

Joey was slumped over the chair but as soon as he saw David's imposing disposition, he sat up

straight immediately.

"Jim told me everything. Shirley is in a wooden cabin in the north of the suburbs in Maple Town.

Apparently, it is the only cabin with a big chimney. And there is a man guarding her in the cabin." Joey

told him all the details Jim had given him.

David noted everything on paper and took out his mobile phone to send the location to Charles.
