You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 275

"Now that it's over, there's no point in hiding it from me." Joyce snorted, "You're already a prisoner, can't you see that? They want you dead too."

Georgia gasped and spoke intermittently, "I really don't know. Before becoming a prison guard, I worked abroad as a mercenary. We mercenaries have an offshore transnational exchange platform, or darknet, where everyone is anonymous. When someone posts a task on it, we will take the order. We don’t know each other, and we contact each other through the website. After completing the task, they will pay us the money through the website with cryptos. After receiving the cryptos, you can then go to other platforms to cash in. In this way, both the person who issued the task and the person who completed the task, are very safe."

Georgia's voice was very faint, but she did her best to speak clearly.

Joyce listened carefully, "So, you got the assignment to go after me from the darknet?"

Georgia nodded with difficulty, "By all rights, my mission is considered completed. I also got the appropriate payment, things should be over. I don't know, where did they get my information and why did they take me here. It seemed that they want to kill me."

"Kill you so that no one can find any traces from you and find out who is actually behind everything? They have really been quite careful with it. However, on the dark net, your information is also kept secret. You also don't know who issued the mission. Why do they just have to kill you?" Joyce was still puzzled after the analysis.

"Maybe because I was exposed in front of you." Georgia laughed bitterly and shook her head in dismay, "Originally, I just wanted to earn some easy money, but I didn't expect to get into trouble and nearly get myself killed. This time, I can't escape, I'm going to die here."

"As long as you are breathing, don't say anything like that," Joyce said as she untied the ropes around Georgia's feet.

"You …" Georgia's otherwise dead eyes lit up with a little starburst, and she wondered, "I tried to kill you, and you were willing to take me out?"

Joyce quickly untied the rope on Georgia's feet, but still used the rope to wrap loosely around Georgia's feet twice, "I wouldn't trust you either, so I'll just untie the rope on your feet, and then we'll have a chance to run together. As for the rope in your hand, I will keep it for now. You better not move much right now, take some rest and regain your strength, and I'll keep the rope around your feet. In case someone comes in, they won’t notice that we've untied the rope."

"Hmm. To get them to let their guard down and be defenseless." Georgia had been a mercenary and naturally understood what she meant.

After Joyce had done all the preparations, she also closed her eyes and rested for a while.

Until she faintly heard a movement outside the door.

She hurriedly put the tape back on her mouth.

And with the rope loosely wrapped around the feet, her hands behind her back, she pretended that nothing had happened at all.

At that moment, the door "creaked".

A man sneaked in and left the iron door half-closed.

His eyes showed an evil light, full of a lecherous smile, "Young pretty, finally we can have some fun…"
