Trapped by Him

Chapter 267

Ch. 265 / 398 Feb 22, 2026

Sitting in the passenger seat, Gloria could no longer keep calm.

Her face was ashen, and the pain in her eyes was obvious.

She once felt strange about her grandpa's inconsistent behavior. Now, everything could be explained.

He cherished her so much, but after all, he chose to support Harry and said that everything in the Carter family belonged to Harry.

He said that he was afraid of Gloria being hurt again, so he kept her with him. However, it was just because he was threatened by Alex.

He taught her patiently and made her much more outstanding than the girls around her so that she could attract the attention of the heir of the Hammond family.

Gloria's mind was a mess. She couldn't tell what was true and what was fake.

She had once lived a happy life with her grandpa, yet she couldn't figure out when he was sincere and when he was scheming against her. Perhaps everything was fake.

The trees outside the window rushed backward. Gloria looked at them and suddenly reached out to open the door.

She wanted to go back to the past and asked her grandpa if everything he had done to her was fake.

She wanted to ask, "Grandpa, do you really love me?"

"You're crazy!" Damon wanted Gloria to die, but when he saw the crazy scene with his own eyes, his heart beat quickly.

A heart-wrenching scream rang out, and the coarse voice carried endless despair.

"I want to go back!" Gloria roared.

She wanted to see her grandpa!

Damon locked the car door. Seeing that she could not open it, Gloria began smashing the window frantically.

When Damon drove at a high speed and claimed to kill Gloria, he did not feel any horror.

However, when Gloria went crazy, there was a sense of lingering fear deep in his heart.

He no longer stepped on the accelerator, but the car did not slow down immediately.

Gloria kept smashing the window desperately, which frightened Damon. He held the steering wheel with one hand and grabbed Gloria with the other.

"Are you crazy?" He roared.

"I want to see him!

"Let go of me! I want to go back!"

Gloria screamed at the top of her lungs. Damon could not see the great pain in her eyes. Gloria failed to maintain her so-called self-esteem.

Damon slapped her mercilessly.

Gloria turned her head in a daze, and Damon was about to curse her. Unexpectedly, the next second, Gloria pounced on the steering wheel like a madman.

Her action made Damon's face darken.

"Let go! Are you crazy? If you don't let go, both of us will die!" Damon roared.

Gloria didn't seem to hear anything as she grabbed the steering wheel.

Damon had forgotten that he wanted her dead.

He fought with Gloria for the steering wheel. At that moment, he was indeed afraid.

Damon, who had said that he was going to drown themselves in the lake, was scared out of his wits.

He thought that he could retaliate against Gloria regardless of his life.

But he regretted it when his life was at risk.

The car was still speeding. Damon stepped on the brake but to no avail. The speed was still more than 80 mph.

As Damon stepped on the brake, the car was forced by an external force, and its tires began to slip. Even in the car, the ear-piercing sound of friction could be heard.

Damon was even more afraid, and the feeling of regret in his heart was getting stronger.

On the road, other cars were all dodging far away. They saw an out-of-control SUV moving forward at a terrifying speed and almost hit the guardrail many times.

Every time, the wheels would brush past the guardrail.

"Let go! Damn it! I told you to let go! You are crazy! I knew Alex kidnapped you when you were born, so what? What's the big deal?" Damon's face turned ashen, and his back was drenched in cold sweat.

Seeing Gloria's fearless and determined look, Damon regretted it very much.

As he cursed, he did not dare to wipe the sweat from the corner of his eyes and it got into his eyes and he felt a sharp pain.

Damon did not dare to wipe his sweat or blink his eyes. He pushed Gloria with one hand and grasped the steering wheel with the other.

He glanced at the dashboard. 80... 75... 72... 68...

As the speed went down, he was slightly relieved.

Damon took advantage of the opportunity and pulled up the handbrake.

After a loud, ear-piercing noise, Damon exhaled with relief.

Because of the handbrake, the speed of the car dropped.

Damon was going to turn the car key. Unexpectedly, Gloria reached over and distracted him. He could only maintain the same posture as before.

'Crazy woman!'

He cursed in his heart.

Fortunately, the speed was reduced to 20 mph.

Thick smoke came from the back of the car. The engine made a strange sound and stalled instantly.

At the same time, the sirens of police cars were approaching, and Damon's car was surrounded.

The SUV finally stopped. Many police officers rushed to it from the surrounding police cars.

At the intersection in front, an obstruction belt was set.

Among the police cars, a black Bentley was especially eye-catching. Patrick got out of the car and strode to the SUV.

He smashed the car window. In an instant, his fist was bleeding. He ignored it and reached into the car to open the door.

Damon saw Patrick, and his frightened face was completely pale.

"It's not me... It's her..."

Patrick glanced at Damon coldly.

Damon worked for Patrick for many years. When he met Patrick's cold eyes, his heart skipped a beat.

His mind was a mess.

Patrick did not say a word. Under everyone's gaze, he bent into the car, wrapped his arms around Gloria, and carried her out.

His hand trembled. He was afraid of losing Gloria.

His head rested on her neck, and his heart was beating wildly.

Patrick saw the SUV lose control and almost crashed the guardrail several times. He was nervous and worried.

He said in his heart, 'Gloria, you have no idea how scared I was?'

He wanted to tell her that.

But Gloria pushed him away.

Patrick was caught off guard and pushed out of the car. He staggered, while Gloria ran away like a madman.

"Don't run! It's me! It's all right! Gloria, don't be afraid!" Patrick chased after her with large strides.

Gloria tripped. She was already crippled, and she fell to the ground.
