The reporters were all scared and dared not to go on asking any more questions. But they didn't leave, and they just kept taking photos of them.
"Didn't you all hear what I just said? Anyone who dares to expose what happened today will forever be my enemy!" warned Daniel furiously.
The reporters exchanged glances with each other; they didn't know what they should do next.
Right at that moment, Daniel noticed a figure at the door. Though she had already turned her body around, Daniel could still recognize who she was. Instantly, Daniel panicked.
"All of you guys get out! Now!" shouted Daniel. The reporters were frightened by Daniel's erupting shout, so they all ran out of the hotel's bedroom right away.
The bedroom turned quiet. While the woman beside him was still sleeping, Daniel quickly put on his clothes.
He then gripped Ivanka's wrist and pulled her out of the bed.
But Daniel saw marks on her body and a red stain on the bed sheet. He was totally dumbfounded!
He knew what the red stain meant, as he still kept the bed sheet with Janet's stain on it in his mansion.
When Ivanka saw the man in front of her, she screamed and hurriedly covered herself with the quilt. She asked, "Who are you?"
Daniel's eyes were burning with rage, which made her step back in fear.
He kicked her away. As she rolled on the ground, Ivanka was extremely hurt by his kick that she couldn't even utter a single word.
"You bitch! I must make you and Poe Yi pay for what you have done to me!" yelled Daniel furiously.
"I have nothing to do with this... I am the victim..." Ivanka managed to squeeze out these words, but Daniel had already left the room.
Daniel's car was parked outside the hotel, and when he went out of the hotel, the reporters, who hadn't left yet, surrounded him.
Daniel scanned around, but he couldn't see Janet anywhere. He then randomly dragged over a reporter and demanded, "Give me your phone!"
The reporter was so frightened that he hastily took out his phone and handed it to Daniel. He dialed a number, but nobody answered the call.
After his fourth try, Daniel called up Spark and asked him to go to the Waterside Apartment.
He gave the phone back to the reporter, looking at all of them there with his sharp, piercing eyes, and warned again, "Listen, I repeat. Anyone who dares expose and report what had happened today is declaring a war against me!"
Then, he found his car and drove away from the hotel.
Daniel rushed to the Waterside Apartment and checked every room in it, but he couldn't find Janet anywhere. Filled with rage, he slumped on the sofa.
When Spark came to the Waterside Apartment, he saw the apartment door open and Daniel leaning on the sofa with eyes closed.
"Mr. Si," Spark cautiously called out his name.
Daniel ordered in a plain voice, "Ruin Poe Yi's company as soon as possible!"
Spark was puzzled. He wondered what Poe Yi had done to his boss. "Yes, Mr. Si," Spark answered.
"Give me your phone!" Daniel suddenly opened his eyes and demanded; Spark then handed him his phone.
He dialed Janet's number again, but her phone had been switched off.
Daniel was now gripping the phone so tightly that the blue veins on his arm appeared vividly.
"Buy me a new phone as soon as possible." He returned the phone to Spark and tried his best to calm down.
"OK, Mr. Si," said Spark.
"Contact Janet's father and ask him about the phone numbers of Janet's bodyguards. Then tell them to take good care of her." Massaging his aching forehead, Daniel stood up and went to change his clothes.
"Yes, Mr. Si. Do you have any other instructions?" asked Spark.
He assumed that something serious must have happened, judging from Daniel's reactions.
"That's it for now. I will handle the other things myself," said Daniel. Daniel then went inside the dressing room and put on some clean clothes.
