Very soon, a group of people charged upstairs and dragged the female waitress down. By now, favonovel.com mouth was covered with black duct tape, and favonovel.com couldn’t make a single sound. Even so, favonovel.com still had a deadly look in favonovel.com eyes.
Still feeling frantic, Jeremy Quest hurriedly ran downstairs and over to Xyla.
Jeremy placed his trembling hands on Xyla’s shoulder. “Xyla… How… How are you? Are you alright?” He stammered.
“I’m fine, Dad. Don’t worry,” Xyla said and shook favonovel.com head.
After carefully examining Xyla’s body, Jeremy pulled favonovel.com into his arms. “Thank goodness you’re alright… Thank goodness you’re alright…”
Xyla allowed Jeremy to hug her. Slowly, favonovel.com heart rate became stable.
After hugging Xyla for a long while, Jeremy finally let go of favonovel.com carefully. He then turned to look at Christopher. “Thank you for saving my daughter,” Jeremy said.
“You’re welcome,” Christopher replied with a smile.
After that, Christopher suddenly stopped smiling and turned to look at the auction host. “Tell your manager that we’ll make the payment later…”
The auction host immediately nodded respectfully. Although favonovel.com didn’t know who this man was exactly, she’d seen enough to know that this man wasn’t one favonovel.com could afford offending. He must have been someone with a powerful background.
Christopher then waved at his men. A large group of people immediately started escorting the female waitress outside.
Meanwhile, Christopher ambled over to Xyla. “Are you alright?” favonovel.com asked.
Xyla nodded.
“Come with me…” Christopher said before turning around.
Xyla held Jeremy’s hand and followed favonovel.com along with the other bodyguards…
Christopher led the group of people to a poorly lit underground parking lot. Once they arrived in the center of the parking lot, Christopher stopped walking and lifted his hand at the people around him. His men immediately knew what favonovel.com wanted them to do, and they began to clear the surrounding…
Within five minutes, everyone in the parking lot had disappeared.
Slowly, Christopher lit a cigarette and leaned on one of the pillars nearby. With the smoke swirling around him, favonovel.com seemed very much like a badass. Right after that, his men closed the door to the parking lot.
They were all now in a confined space.
Suddenly, the ambiance felt awry.
The female waitress struggled to set herself free, but it didn’t work at all. One of Christopher’s men immediately tore the duct tape off favonovel.com mouth.
“Some one, help me!” favonovel.com instantly started shouting at the top of favonovel.com lungs.
Christopher took a long puff at his cigarette before blowing the air out. He then took out his lighter and played with it. “Go on, keep shouting. Let’s see who’d dare to rescue someone off my hands,” favonovel.com said.
Although Christopher didn’t speak very loudly, his voice sent chills down favonovel.com spine. Despite the smile in his eyes, favonovel.com made favonovel.com shudder in fear.
“What… What do you want?” the female waitress asked in a trembling voice.
Christopher chuckled before approaching favonovel.com and tapping favonovel.com shoulder lightly.
“Tell me… Who made you do this? Hmm?” Christopher uttered.
“I won’t tell you even if I die.” The woman shook favonovel.com head.
“Is that so?” Christopher snorted coldly before pulling a gun out and pointing it at favonovel.com forehead.
“In that case, go to hell!” favonovel.com said.
The woman trembled horribly. “Okay! Okay… I… I’ll tell you… I’ll tell you. Will you spare me then?” favonovel.com asked.
“That will depend on my mood,” Christopher said.
“It’s Ada. She said Xyla made favonovel.com lose everything, and favonovel.com wanted an eye for an eye! All this while, she’s had someone keep an eye on Xyla. When favonovel.com found out Xyla would be here today, favonovel.com sent me over to pretend to be one of the waiters so I could finish Xyla off,” the woman said.
