Chapter 1561 A Bloody Sign
Lorraine barked, ‘‘Drive faster! We need to get back to the hotel.’‘
‘‘Don’t worry, Ms. Lorraine. I’ll get you there in ten minutes.’‘ The chauffeur stomped on the gas pedal and sped toward the hotel.
As he promised, the car pulled into the hotel driveway in under ten minutes.
Lorraine was filled with inexplicable dread as she walked along the corridor. She shot her subordinate a look, and he slowly clasped her hand to offer her support.
It’s silent. Far too silent. She suddenly realized what was off about the whole situation. The place was unusually quiet. When she left, she had arranged two men to guard Sonia, and it was too odd for the room to be completely noiseless.
She turned around and whispered to her subordinate, ‘‘Go in and check out the situation. I think something happened. It’s far too quiet. Be careful.’‘
He nodded in acknowledgment before cautiously ascending the stairs. Then, he gently opened the door to the room which held Sonia captive.
He froze on the spot as his gaze roved over the mess in the room. It appeared as though a fight had taken place. More worryingly, no one was in the room.
‘‘Ms. Lorraine! There’s an emergency! Come up here right away!’‘ he yelled toward his boss downstairs.
D*mn it! Something bad really happened. Lorraine’s heart sank when she heard her subordinate’s yells. Immediately, she rushed upstairs and entered the room.
‘‘What on earth happened? Where did everyone go?’‘ Lorraine shrieked at the man beside her.
He hastily lowered his head as though he had done something wrong and mumbled, ‘‘I don’t know.’‘
Though he had little to do with their disappearance, he was the one who chose the two guards in the first place.
