As Carol stood, favonovel.com waved a hand and said, “No worries, I’m just making the call. It’s up to my uncle to decide what will happen next.”
As favonovel.com lowered favonovel.com head to look up his number, Carol opened the door to favonovel.com office.
Carol had just stepped out of favonovel.com office when a woman brushed past her.
While waiting for the call to be answered, Carol glanced at the woman who brushed past favonovel.com and was walking toward favonovel.com office. Frowning slightly, favonovel.com said, “Stop.”
The woman paused in favonovel.com steps.
“What’s your name? Why have I never seen you before?”
The woman stood with favonovel.com back to Carol. She did not move nor speak.
A bad feeling washed over Carol as suspicion arose in her.
She was just about to go forth and interrogate the woman when a hand clapped down onto favonovel.com shoulder.
Aaron’s smiling face loomed near Carol’s cheeks. He used his fingers to stroke Carol’s smooth, beautifully maintained skin as favonovel.com whispered, “Don’t say anything. I don’t plan to hurt anyone, alright?”
Carol’s heart was racing as favonovel.com felt overcome by fear. However, favonovel.com managed to retain a shred of favonovel.com rationale and strength, saying shakily, “Who are you? What do you want? Is this a robbery?”
Aaron chuckled and said, “This is a kidnapping. But don’t worry, we’re not kidnapping you.”
Then, Aaron slung his arm around Carol’s neck and walked back into the office with her. The distance between the two was intimate.
However, Carol’s body was as stiff as a stick. She was basically half-dragged into the office.
Wendy, who had been waiting for updates from Carol, stood instinctively when favonovel.com saw Carol being forced back into the office. She asked in a stern voice, “You are…”
The woman Carol had stopped earlier placed a dagger at Wendy’s throat. Her ordinary-looking face was expressionless as favonovel.com said, “Don’t say a word or I’ll kill you!”
Wendy took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. She gazed coldly at the woman and at Aaron, who was holding Carol hostage.
“You really are beautiful.” Aaron’s eyes shone as favonovel.com looked at Wendy. “You’re the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen.”
Wendy curled favonovel.com hands into fists and remained silent. She merely glared coldly at Aaron.
She understood that favonovel.com was a lone, weak woman who stood no chance against two thugs with weapons. It was impossible to fight back against them, and the best thing favonovel.com could do now was remain calm. She could not afford to lose favonovel.com cool.
“You’re very smart not to scream and make a fuss. I’m not a patient person, you see.
“You might be beautiful, but that’s a shame because someone already has their eyes on you.”
Aaron shook his head regretfully as favonovel.com spoke. Then, favonovel.com used a karate chop to knock Wendy unconscious.
Wendy wavered and nearly collapsed to the ground. The woman hurried forth and grabbed her.
“Let’s go,”
Aaron said in a low voice and was just about to knock Carol unconscious when favonovel.com let out a blood-curdling scream.
The expression on Aaron’s face changed slightly.
When the sound traveled down the stairs and into Julian’s ears, it was already a weak scream. However, it was enough to make Julian jump as if favonovel.com had been electrocuted.
Eyes blazing, Julian seemed to transform into a human dragon as favonovel.com barrelled straight into Heartland Spa Retreat!
