His Housewife Had Secret Identities novel Chapter 492

Before Marina could even react, two men jumped out of the van and dragged her inside, forcing her into the back seat.

The van sped through the city and soon pulled up in front of an adult store on the outskirts.

The men shoved and prodded her, hustling her through the dimly lit doorway.

A single, weak bulb cast a thin yellow glow across Marina’s face, highlighting the utter pallor of her cheeks.

At the back of the shop, a narrow doorway led to a small room. In the corner, a staircase descended into a basement.

Marina’s knees buckled as she was forced down the stairs, and she nearly tumbled headlong before one of the men caught her, laughing harshly.

The basement door swung open, revealing a group of people inside.

A burly man with tattoos covering his arms and neck stood in the center, flanked by two cronies. A cameraman adjusted his lens, while another man fiddled with the softbox lights and reflectors, setting up the scene.

But what caught Marina’s eye first was the crude, oversized iron bed in the middle of the room.

“No… I don’t want to…” she stammered, clutching her mouth as she choked back sobs, shrinking away from the men. She barely managed a step before one of them slapped her hard across the face.

“You signed the contract, didn’t you? Don’t try to back out now! It’s not like this is your first time.”

“Careful with her face,” another man barked. “How are we supposed to film her looking like that?”

“Exactly—Drake always said she was his favorite.”

The tattooed man strode toward her, broad-shouldered and towering, his presence eclipsing her entirely.

Marina’s heart pounded with terror. She recognized every man in the room—except for the cameraman and his assistant.

The tattooed man grabbed her chin, squeezing so hard Marina felt her jaw might break.

“Keen… it hurts…” she whimpered, tears streaming down her cheeks, unable to close her mouth from the pain.

He sneered. “Remind me—why’d you lie to Joker in the first place? Claiming you were the long-lost love of The Thomas Group’s CEO, promising to get him perks… But after all your schemes, here you are, right back where you started.”

With that, Keen hurled Marina onto the iron bed.
