My Beloved Has Risen from Death's Embrace novel Chapter 310

"Bang!"

No sooner had Xanthea finished speaking than the office door being kicked open with a loud crash. Startled, Xanthea quickly retracted her head and hid herself properly.

"Mr. Nightshade! Mr. Nightshade, you can't just go in there."

"Get out of my way!"

Samuel shoved Cedric side and stormed into the office, yelling at the tall, imposing figure standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, "Orion, where's my sister?!"

Orion's gaze lifted from the trembling girl hiding under the desk. He slowly turned around with an unruffled expression, "Mr. Nightshade, good to see you're well."

"Cut the crap. Where's Xan? What have you done to her?"

He had been in a meeting when he got a call from Isabella, saying that Xan was at the Twin Towers and might be in danger. The news had him dropping everything and rushing over.

On his way, his mind conjured up all sorts of dreadful scenarios.

Ever since the premiere of Adventure Blitz: Two Days, One Night, Samuel had been following the show. Seeing Orion on the show was a huge red flag. Why would the CEO of a top-tier conglomerate, usually so elusive, participate in a small reality show for the whole online public to see?

Connecting the dots with Orion's attentions to Xanthea both lately and on the show, it had to be that he was there for Xan!

And why would Isabella say Xan was in danger? Could it be that Matthew went to Serenwood to pick up Xan this morning, and Orion saw them, became jealous and resented, and kidnapped her out of spite?

He couldn't bear to imagine it. How could his frail and delicate Xan resist someone as powerful as Orion? Especially given his reputation as a "demon" with a history of matricide.

Under the desk, Xanthea's heart skipped a beat at Samuel's furious voice.
