Chapter 261 Fear
Riley would probably hate him for this.
+3 Bonus!
She had already told him to wait a few days, and then she would tell him everything.
All he had to do was wait patiently for her to open up.
Sebastian took a long breath and pulled his hand back, staring at Riley’s sleeping face. “Riley, I won’t do anything to make you hate me again.”
XXXXX
On day three, Riley kept her word and wired the hundred mil.
But she wasn’t stupid–she’d already set her trackers in motion.
As expected, they quickly started splitting the funds into multiple transfers.
This was precisely what Riley had been waiting for.
She needed to find this person and lock down their current location.
The earlier email trace had narrowed it down to Washington, but she couldn’t pinpoint anything more specific than that.
Now, she could zero in on their exact position as they were maying money in batches.

Washington.
She had to find their precise location!

Riley’s fingers flew across the keyboard in a blur. It was a race between whether they could move all the money faster, or whether she could track them down first!
Click!
With the final press of the enter key, Riley stared at the address on her screen, her expression ice–cold.
Ten minutes later, Sebastian was in his office when Felix delivered his report.
“Mr. Torres, Ms. Anderson just left for the Washington Hotel about ten minutes ago with her bodyguards,” Felix said.
Sebastian’s expression sharpened. “Did she say what she was going there for?”
“No, but I do know that Ms. Wren Anderson has been staying at the Washington Hotel recently,” Felix replied.
Since he’d been ordered to keep tabs on Wren, Felix naturally knew precisely where she was staying after arriving in Washington.
The moment Felix learned that Riley was heading to the Washington Hotel, he immediately thought of Wren.
An uneasy feeling instantly spread through his entire body.

Sebastian shot up from his chair, grabbed his car keys, and bolted out of the office.
“Mr. Torres!” Felix called out, completely baffled.
Why was Sebastian rushing out like that?
+3 Bonus
Even if Riley really was going after Wren, with Riley’s skills and
the bodyguards she brought, she wouldn’t get hurt!
And that look on Sebastian’s face as he rushed out–was that…
fear?
The next moment, Felix dismissed the thought.
How could Sebastian possibly be afraid?
At the same time, Wren was in her hotel room, gleefully finishing up her money transfer before sending the video files related to Riley and Samuel through a newly created anonymous
email account.
The email address would automatically destroy itself after sending, making it impossible for anyone to trace it back to her.
She’d specifically learned this trick from a professional for this deal.
“Riley, I really hope you dig all the way to Sebastian,” Wren muttered with pure malice. “I’d love to see how you react when you find out what Sebastian did back then. Will you still stay with him?” 3/5

“Who is it?” Wren called out.
“Room service,” came the voice from outside.

“I didn’t order any room service,” Wren said, walking over to open the hotel door.
The moment she saw who stood there, her face went white, and she tried to slam the door shut.
BANG!
Riley kicked the door open, sending Wren stumbling backward until she landed hard on her ass.
Wren scrambled, glaring at Riley. “What the hell are you doing here? I’m calling the cops!”
“Go ahead, call them,” Riley said coolly. “I’d love to know how long a hundred million dollars will get you in prison.”
The anger on Wren’s face turned to panic. “What are you talking about? What hundred million?”
Riley stepped closer to Wren. “One hundred million dollars, Wren. I can give it to you, but I need you to tell me everything. How did you get that video? Where did you meet Samuel? When? I want every single detail you know!”
“I have no idea what you’re talking about,” Wren denied flatly.
Riley pressed her lips together and raised her hand, signaling A665

bodyguards to restrain Wren.

Wren thrashed wildly. “Let me go! This is illegal–I’ll sue you!”
Riley ignored Wren’s shouting and went straight for the nearby computer, quickly pulling up the records of Wren’s account transfers.
“Still want to sue me?” she said.
Wren’s face went chalk white in an instant.
“Wren, tell me everything you know!” Riley stepped closer, her voice sharp with threat. “If you cooperate, I won’t go after that hundred million dollars. But if you keep lying to me, I won’t play nice anymore. I’ll do whatever it takes to make you talk.”
Finding Samuel was everything to her–she couldn’t afford to be gentle.
“I… I was just at the German border back then and ran into Samuel by accident. My stuff got stolen, so I reported it to the cops; that’s why there’s surveillance footage. I only thought of it after seeing your brother’s photo, so… so I figured I could make some quick cash,” Wren stammered frantically.
