She clenched her fists tightly, still gritting her teeth in denial. "That masked man, who dared to go against Mr. Elan, must have a lot of power. Someone of my background, how could I possibly get in touch with someone so powerful..."
Travis still had a sinister smile on his face. "You're still as good at making excuses as you used to be. You almost had me believing you again, but this time..."
He paused for a moment, and his eyes, filled with sinister anger, suddenly blazed with ferocity.
"I will never let you go!"
With that, he kicked Luana fiercely, sending her sprawling to the ground.
Before she could react, one of the bodyguards struck her back with an iron rod.
The pain from the blow shot through her back, making her break out in a cold sweat instantly...
"Bitch! It's one thing that you teamed up with Bert from the Moriarty Group to screw me over, but you also sent someone to harm me. Do you think I'm easy to bully?!"
His disfigured face, disabled body, and the looming threat of a huge breach-of-contract fine from the Moriarty Group—all of it was because of this woman.
After waking from his coma and learning that his father had been arrested and the Elan family had fallen into decline, he had hoped to use the contract for the West City area that Luana had helped him sign to revive the Elan family.
But then Bert told him that according to the contract's breach-of-contract clause, he was in default. Not only would he not get the development rights for the West City, but he would also have to pay the Moriarty Group a huge fine.
He then realized that the contract's breach-of-contract clause stated that the Elan family could not have any negative news. If any scandal was exposed, the Elan family would have to pay the Moriarty Group billions in breach-of-contract fines.
It was as if someone had anticipated that he would be exposed in a scandal, deliberately asked him to modify the contract terms, and then exposed the scandal. This not only completely brought him down but also saddled him with a huge fine.
This led him to suspect that Luana had conspired with Bert. After all, the person who had asked him to modify the contract that night was Bert. He worked for Moriarty Group.
But he wasn't sure if the masked man was Bert, so he had to force the truth out of Luana.
"Tell me! Who is that masked man?! Is it Bert?!"
Travis's cold voice rang out above Luana, making her shudder in fear.
She didn't understand why Travis would suspect that the masked man was Bert. Just as she was about to ask, another blow came down.
The pain was so intense it felt like her bones were about to break. She was in such agony that she couldn't even scream, only curling up to try to ease the pain...
Unable to speak from the pain, Travis thought she was being stubborn. With a wave of his hand, another iron rod came crashing down on her back.
It hurt...
It hurt so much she could hardly breathe...
It hurt so much that even breathing became a struggle...
But Travis had no intention of letting her off so easily.
He ordered the two bodyguards to pin her down on the washbasin, watching them with a lecherous grin on his face.
"My only regret is that I never slept with you, but watching it live is pretty thrilling, don't you think?"
This sentence was even more devastating than the physical pain.
She forgot about the injuries on her back and shook her head desperately at Travis.
"Mr. Elan, I really don't know who that masked man is, and I don't understand what you mean by Bert..."
She clenched her teeth and didn't reveal Mr. Night because she knew that if she did, Travis would really let the bodyguards rape her.
For now, he was just using this method to force her to reveal who the masked man was. As long as she didn't speak, she still had a slim chance of survival.
Travis had always known that Luana was smart. He wouldn't get anything out of her without using some real force.
He nodded at the two bodyguards and coldly commanded, "Take her!"
Upon receiving the order, the bodyguards immediately began to strip Luana's clothes.
Luana was terrified and struggled desperately, but she was no match for the strength of the two men.
They pinned her down on the washbasin, one on each side, holding her arms.
One of them started to undress her while the other removed her pants, quickly leaving her completely exposed...
As they pressed down on her, touching and kissing her, Travis's excited laughter filled her ears.
That sound, combined with the sensations on her body, made Luana feel as if she had fallen into an icy abyss.
"Get off me! Don't touch me!"
She struggled frantically, but the more she resisted, the more excited Travis became.
"Hurry up, take her!"
"Travis, I'll tell you who the masked man is if you let me go!"
She held onto her only bargaining chip and shouted at Travis through gritted teeth.
The bodyguards, hearing that she was about to reveal the identity of the masked man, immediately stopped their actions.
Travis, however, didn't seem to care. "Take her first! Teach her a lesson!"
He had always been like this. Every time he tried to sleep with her, she managed to talk him out of it, preventing him from succeeding several times.
Today, even if God himself came, he was determined to do this first. Otherwise, how could he swallow this humiliation?
The men, with his command, pressed down on her again, groping her wildly.
Just as they were ready, the restroom door was kicked open from the outside.
