My Gambling Addict Dad Owes Billions, and a Mad Tycoon Keeps Me Under Lock and Key

[Urban + Forced Love + Intense Push and Pull + Cross-Border Escape + Unhinged Powerful Man + No Self-Sacrificing Heroine + Thrilling, Satisfying Read] A disastrous start: Lin Xingwan’s life was one big tragedy. Her gambling-addict father vanished after racking up tens of billions in debt, her playboy brother disappeared after causing a catastrophe, and her mother lay in the hospital in a vegetative state. To pay off the debt and save her mother, her father sold her to the most terrifying unhinged man in the city, Huo Yan. Rumor had it he was ruthless, all-powerful, and a heartless monster without a shred of feeling. At their first meeting, she stood tall and snapped back at him with biting sarcasm: “Mr. Huo, you bought my life, not my dignity!” Huo Yan gripped her chin, smiling with sick, frenzied delight. “Your life is mine, and so is your dignity. Even if you die, you can only die in my cage.” From then on, her life became an endless cycle of escape. She ran, was caught and imprisoned; she ran again, faced an international manhunt and was punished to the extreme. A hunt she could never escape began. Huo Yan sneered. “Wanwan, even if you run to the ends of the earth, I’ll bring you back and lock you up with a gold chain.” Lin Xingwan: “You psycho, don’t touch me!” Until one day, she made it to a foreign country with the baby in her belly. The whole world was shaken. The once-arrogant head of the Huo family had red-rimmed eyes as he mobilized an army to search for his wife across borders!
