Chapter 376 We’ve Been Abducted?
Chloe was truly captivated by the composure and calmness displayed by the young man before her.
“Any girl who becomes your girlfriend in the future will undoubtedly be incredibly fortunate, ” she praised.
“What makes you say that?” he asked.
“You’re wealthy, handsome, reliable, and gentle,” she replied.
Noah smiled subtly, a glint of innocence shining in his eyes. “I hope so. But I’m not fond of arranged marriages.”
“Why don’t men from prestigious families like arranged marriages?” Chloe asked.
In such social circles, arranged marriages would serve as powerful alliances.
Noah pondered for a moment and playfully remarked, “Perhaps it’s their inherent rebelliousness or their desire to maintain control over their destiny.”
After the funeral, Noah invited Chloe to sit down and discuss their strategy for managing public opinion. Although the police would soon clarify the situation, there would still be online commentators relentlessly criticizing her.
Noah had his bodyguards with him, who also handled various tasks. The two of them found a coffee shop with excellent privacy, featuring secluded private rooms. One of the bodyguards went to the counter to order coffee.
Since Chloe had no knowledge in this area, she attentively listened as Noah explained. After their conversation, she grasped the situation.
“So, what you mean is that if my personal matters are connected to Exotic Star, I don’t need to worry because your team will handle them?”
“Exactly. Our company has a dedicated department for handling such matters. They’re more professional,” he replied.
“Okay.”
The arrangement brought her a sense of relief, and she saw no reason to refuse.
Chloe glanced at the time and raised her eyes to the entrance of the private room. “There should be many people placing orders. Your bodyguard has been gone for over ten minutes and hasn’t returned yet.”
“Perhaps he went to the restroom,” Noah suggested.

She smiled sheepishly and said, “How coincidental. I also need to use the restroom. Please
excuse me for a moment.”
Noah nodded and smiled gently.
After attending to her needs, Chloe walked to the side to wash her hands. In the fleeting moment as she turned on the faucet, she felt a stinging sensation on her neck as if a foreign substance had been injected into her body. She struggled to turn around and caught sight of a masked woman holding a syringe, smiling at her.
Within mere seconds, Chloe’s limbs weakened, and all her strength deserted her. Refusing to surrender to her fate, she made a desperate attempt to seek help, but the masked woman swiftly covered her mouth. The powder on the woman’s palm infiltrated Chloe’s nostrils, causing her eyelids to weigh down like lead and succumb to unconsciousness. 1
When Chloe regained consciousness, she found herself inside a van with her hands and feet tightly bound. Noah was beside her, also in the same predicament, and was being restrained. The bodyguard, soaked in blood, lay motionless nearby, his fate shrouded in uncertainty.
