“What do you mean?” She looked at Mark.
Mark, upon throwing her a glance, circled to her back and gave her neck a karate-chop. Caught off guard, the unconscious Linda slumped into Mark’s ready arms.
“Linda, I know you can’t bear to go through with it. Therefore, I’ll take care of this alone,” Mark murmured as he carried her up onto the bed. After that, he avoided any prying eyes and slipped into Linda’s room to collect her personal documents.
Subsequently, he returned to his room and carried her downstairs to a waiting taxi.
Not long after they were gone, Gaspar returned with Anna.
Worried that Micah would find out about them, Anna stole a kiss from Gaspar before attempting to return to her room. However, the latter wasn’t going to let her off easily. Reaching out to grab her, he pulled her into his room before pinning her to the door and leaning in for a smooch.
Just when both of them were locked in a passionate kiss and preparing to get in bed, a flurry of footsteps was heard followed by the door being kicked open with a loud bang.
Gaspar, after pushing Anna behind him in reflex, stood in front to shield her. As for Anna, she frantically straightened her clothes before giving the group of intruders a shocked look.
“You…”
Staring down the gun barrels aimed at them by a group of policemen, Gaspar felt his heart sink.
He had barely spoken a word when he was instantly cut off.
The stern-looking policeman heading the group declared, “We have received a report that there are drugs hidden here.”
“Have you made a mistake? How can there be any drugs here?” Gaspar asked while giving the policeman an indifferent look.
After all, he was sure there weren’t any drugs present.
