Chapter 236

236 Saving Britney

“Do not move!” Emma exclaimed, pointing a penknife at the women.

The arrival of Emma and Kathy disguised as robbers made the women in the toilet hysterical.

Rachel and Poppy pretended to be scared like the other women. But inwardly, they sighed in relief at having managed to buy time for Emma and Kathy.

“If you scream, I’ll rip your mouth off!” Emma threatened while keeping her knife pointed. Then she glanced at Poppy and pulled her away.

Emma held Poppy’s neck in front of her with one arm, and then her other hand, which held the knife was placed near the girl’s neck.

“P-please don’t hurt me. I beg you!” Poppy said with tears slowly running down her cheeks. She played so well.

“W-what do you want?” The madam asked with her body pressed against the wall.

Kathy, unarmed, only pretended that she would be ready to hit the women if they dared to make a move. Unfortunately, she didn’t carry a knife as Emma did. But they had to move quickly before the women realized that they weren’t men because Emma and Kathy weren’t wearing gloves. Their trousers didn’t belong to men either.

“You women belong to the Beast Empire, aren’t you? They owe us two girls, damn it!” Emma said in her robotic voice.

.....

“W-what? How did that happen? Who are you?” Madame asked.

“That’s none of your business! This is a matter between men.” Emma answered. Then she pointed at Britney and another girl at random. “You two! Come with us! Hurry up!”

“W-wait!” The madam was about to hold them.

Kathy, who was standing next to the madam, immediately pushed the woman’s chest back until her back hit the wall.

“GOD!” The madam held onto the criminal’s hand that was pressing against her chest, just below her neck, very firmly.

“You’d better not move, old woman. You still care about your life, don’t you?” Kathy said in her robotic voice.

The madam stared at the black-masked face in front of her with frightened eyes. Then she nodded quickly with a hard breath because her chest was pressed tightly.

Emma looked at Kathy and shook her head slightly to the side. Kathy nodded, then walked over to the exit, unlocked it to peek outside.

“Safe.” She said to Emma.

“Come here quickly!” Emma snapped at the two sexy-dressed girls who were still standing by their madam.

“Madam,” Britney and another girl looked at their madam with frightened faces.

But the madam just clicked her tongue, and moved her chin towards the men. “Just go with them,” she said in a whisper.

For the madam, it was better for her to lose two new girls rather than put her life in danger. She didn’t know what was going on with her bosses. As the masked man said, it was the men’s problem. She didn’t want to get involved at all. She only worked for them on her part.

“Quick!” Emma exclaimed, pointing her knife again at the girls.

With a frightened face, Britney and the other girl she just met, walked slowly toward the gunman.

“You too! Come with us!” Emma said to Rachel.

“Please..” Poppy said to Rachel with tears in her eyes, pretending to beg her friend to come along so her life didn’t fly away.

With the victims already collected, Kathy immediately opened the toilet door, and stepped quickly behind the two comfort women. She grabbed them by the shoulders. “Obey, if you want to survive.”

Then Emma forcefully dragged Poppy out of the toilet.

“Move!” Kathy snapped at the girls while pushing them a little.

Before exiting the toilet, Kathy pulled out the key stuck in the keyhole of the inside of the door. When they were all out of there, Kathy quickly locked the door from the outside.

Meanwhile, Emma immediately released Poppy. Then they dragged Britney and another girl toward the back of the toilet.

Once behind the toilet, Emma and Kathy quickly took off their jackets and masks.

“Don’t be loud. We’re helping you,” Poppy said quickly to Britney and the stranger girl.

“Put on the jacket,” Emma threw the men’s jacket she had just taken off at Britney.

Kathy followed by giving hers to the stranger.

Meanwhile, Rachel swiftly picked up Emma and Kathy’s shoes which they had left beside the wall.

The two girls who were being rescued looked at them all with confused faces. It seemed that Poppy and Rachel recognized the two masked men.

As soon as Emma and Kathy’s masks were removed, Britney was gawked to see the faces of her two friends.

“Let’s go!” Emma said quickly.

“Act normally,” Rachel said to Britney and the strange girl.

Britney and her friends nodded, and began to walk quickly following the four girls with their faces down.

The girls strode swiftly through the crowds of Jen Marie street. After having walked quite a distance from the toilet, Emma looked back and found some men gathered in front of the female toilet.

Emma was sure they were breaking down the toilet door. The madam must have contacted her people right away after the criminals left.

“We must hurry. Their help is here.” Emma said after looking back at the front.

After getting out of the crowd of Jen Marie Street, the group of girls immediately quickened their pace to half-running and then real-running as soon as they got out of that damned street.

They ran into the deserted parking lot, and approached a red car. Kathy, who had previously held the car key, swiftly threw it at Emma who was already standing beside the driver’s door.

Quickly, the girls got into the car even though they had to jostle.

“Ready?” Emma asked as she started the engine.

“Yes,” The girls answered in unison.

After hitting the gas a few times to warm up the engine, Emma drove the car as fast as she could, out of the area.

“Damn! It was mad! What a tense!” Kathy exclaimed with a long sigh.

“What’s really going on, guys? Why did you guys suddenly appear?” Britney asked directly.

She had mixed feelings right now. She didn’t understand what was going on. She was happy to have been saved and confused by the appearance of her friends. Everything happened very fast.

Rachel kept her eyes on the rearview mirror, occasionally glancing at the rear mirror to see if someone was following their car or not.

“No one’s following us. But we’d better hurry,” Said Rachel who was sitting in the front passenger seat.

Emma nodded. “I’m sure there’s a commotion going on in the Beast Empire right now.”

“What’s your name?” Kathy asked the stranger girl they were forced to take in the car.

Actually, Emma’s decision to bring another girl she didn’t know was a risky thing. She didn’t know if the girl was the victim of a kidnapping or if she worked for the Beast Empire voluntarily.

But if Emma only brought Britney with her, it might be that the action would provoke suspicion from their madam. Then, Beast Empire would end up suspecting Britney and looking for her whereabouts.

“My name is Ava Morthkiel. Sorry, but what exactly happened?” Asked the girl with chocolate skin and cornrows braided hair.

“Before answering your question, I want to ask you one thing first. Why did you end up working there?” Emma asked.

“I.. I was forced to do it. My own boyfriend set me up to work there. They-” She stopped to keep her tears from spilling out, “They threatened me. If I didn’t do the job, they would destroy my face.”

“What?” Poppy and Kathy said at the same time.

Briteny nodded. “They did that to me too. They threaten us all. If we don’t obey, they will find us and destroy our future.” She added without being able to hold back her tears.

“Those bastards,” Emma tightened her grip on the steering wheel. “I’ll finish them off.”

“Why are you guys suddenly helping us?” Britney asked.

“That’s a very long story. But we were indeed investigating the case of the girls being kidnapped. And we bumped into you earlier. At that moment, we realized that something was off. We knew you well enough to know that you couldn’t possibly work on Jen Marie Street of your own will.” Kathy explained.

“Girls.. You better stop what you’re doing. You don’t know what kind of people they are. Don’t get involved,” Britney said with a shaking voice.

“You don’t have to worry, Britney. You don’t even know what kind of woman we are.” Emma said.

Britney frowned. She had never seen Emma’s angry face before. Although the girl had a pretty and gentle face like an angel, she could feel the sinister aura from her. Emma’s tone even sounded so cold to her ears.

“Poppy, could you get Linda and Cecil to come over?” Emma asked.

“Sure,” Poppy answered, then took up her cell phone and did as Emma asked.

The red car arrived in front of a white building with gorgeous details on the outer walls. After confirming once again that they weren’t being followed, the six girls got out of the car.

Before entering the ballet studio, Rachel helped Emma to wrap her car in a black car cover.

They all gathered on the third floor, waiting for Linda and Cecil to come. Even the two girls had to use a taxi to come to the place because they were afraid of the dangers on the road.

“Britney?” Said Linda who had just arrived on the third floor.

“Linda!” Britney walked over to her best friend and hugged her tightly. In front of her best friend, she couldn’t hold back the tears that eventually spilt out.

“What happened, guys?” Linda asked the others with a confused face, while her best friend was crying hysterically as if the apocalypse was coming.
