Chapter 215 Trapped

Chapter 215 Trapped

The dressing room had one of those big wardrobes with two doors.

And just as the thought flashed through her mind, she heard a rustling sound from inside the wardrobe.

The color drained from Lily’s face. Her entire body tensed. She didn’t go check–it was too risky Instead, she backed up, pressing herself flat against the wall, eyes fixed on the wardrobe.

A second later, the doors creaked open, and two short, wiry men stepped out.

They weren’t tall, but their arms were roped with lean muscle–clearly trained, and dangerous. One look at the menace in their eyes, and she knew they weren’t here to talk.

There was no way she could overpower them.

Her heart pounded furiously in her chest as she desperately searched for an escape.

But the door was locked tight. She was trapped–caged like a bird, with nowhere to run.

“Lily?

They already knew who she was. They must’ve seen her photo before coming.

In an age where filters were everywhere, they had assumed her pictures were heavily edited.

What they hadn’t expected was that in real life, she was even more stunning than in the photos–by a mile. The two exchanged a quick glance, then swallowed hard in unison, dark and twisted desires sparking in

their eyes.

But Wendy had given them strict orders–not to push too far, not to make Lily feel cornered enough to do something reckless. They needed to get the photos, not provoke a catastrophe.

Besides, if they got the five million Wendy promised, they could sleep with all the women they wanted. Sure, none of them would look like Lily, but with the lights off and their imagination, it’d be close enough.

“What do you want?” Lily forced herself to stay calm, her voice sharp. “Did Wendy and Elsa send you? How much are they paying you? I can pay you more. Just let me leave.”

One of them laughed, a low, cruel sound. He had a skull tattoo on his left arm. “You think we’re that stupid? If we let you go now, you’re not gonna pay us. You’ll call the cops.

His voice turned colder. “We don’t want to rough up a pretty little thing like you. So how about this–take your clothes off, let us snap a few photos, and we’ll let you walk out of here. Sound good?”

Lily understood immediately.

Elsa and Wendy wanted blackmail photos–shots of her completely exposed, humiliated.

With pictures like that, they could force her into settling. She wouldn’t want such images internet She’d have no choice but to give in

But there was no way she was going to let that happen.

She had already tested James in secret. Her only option now was to stall for time

“Ten million.

She pressed herself tighter to the wall and kept her voice steady. “I won’t call the police. Give me your account number–I’ll transfer the money right now. If ten million isn’t enough, I’ll double it.”

The two men looked at each other.

For a moment, they hesitated. Wendy had only paid a one–million deposit. Even with the balance, that would only be six million.

Lily’s offer blew that out of the water.

Temptation flickered in their eyes.

But they didn’t trust her. One of them sneered. “You? Please. Everyone knows you’re just some washed–up has–been that John tossed aside. Like hell you have twenty million. Quit wasting our time and take your clothes off. Don’t push your luck.”
