Chapter 211

Marcus frowned.

The way Cory was speaking did not sound like a man who knew what had happened to Julia. There was genuine confusion in tris eyes.

Still, that did not mean he trusted him.

“If I find out you had anything to do with what happened to her,” Marcus said coldly, “I swear I will make you regret it.”

Cory stared at him, completely oblivious.

“Marcus, what are you

Before he could finish, Marcus stepped back inside and slammed the door shut.

“Marcus!”

Cory banged on the door.

“Let me in! Where is Julia? What have you done to her, motherfucker? Take me to where she is right now!”

Marcus ignored him.

The banging continued several times before eventually stopping.

Outside, Cory clenched his fists. Seeing that Marcus had no intention of answering him, he turned around angrily.

“Fine,” he muttered. “I’ll come back with the police.”

He walked away into the darkness.

By then, the night was slowly giving way to morning.

Around five in the morning, Marcus’s phone rang.

It was Natalie.

Marcus answered immediately.

“Have you found him?”

There was a brief silence.

“I checked,” Natalie said. “And the room was booked by the Senate President, Mr. Adam.”

Marcus’s expression instantly changed.

“The Senate President?”

“Yes.”

Marcus stood completely still.

Mr. Adam was the same man who had gifted Julia the house and helped elevate her career. More importantly, he had been one of his father’s most loyal subordinates.

Why would a man like him take Julia to a hotel?

And why had she been drugged?

Find him. Right now,” Marcus ordered.

“I already tried,” Natalie replied. “But I couldn’t reach him. His wife said he hasn’t returned home since last night.”

Marcus’s eyes narrowed. That made the situation even stranger.

“Find him as soon as possible.”

“Okay. I’ll do everything I can.”

The call ended.

Marcus slowly turned toward Julia.

He stared at her pale face.

There were too many questions running through his mind, and only one person could answer them was Julia.

He sat beside her and waited untill she will awake.

More than two hours passed.

Then Julia suddenly moved.

Her fingers twitched slightly, followed by a faint movement of her head.

Marcus immediately leaned forward.

“Julia?”

Her eyelids trembled.

“Julia, can you hear me?”

It took several seconds before her eyes slowly opened.

She looked confused, her vision unfocused. “Marcus…?”

Julia tried to move, but immediately winced and placed a hand against her forehead.

“My head… hurts.”

Marcus’s expression tightened.

“Don’t move….”

Julia swallowed. “I’m thirsty.”

Marcus immediately stood up.

“I’ll get you some water.”

He hurried to the kitchen, poured a glass, and returned to her side. “Here. Drink slowly.”

Julia took the glass with trembling hands and drank a small amount. Marcus watched her carefully.

After nearly fifteen minutes, Julia finally seemed more awake. she even washed her face, though, she still felt

slightly heavy.

Marcus sat beside her.

“Julia,” he said quietly, “I need you to tell me what happened last night”

She looked at him with tired eyes.

“What… happened?”

Marcus’s frowned. “Last night, how did you end up in the hotel, who booked you there”.

Julia looked genuinely confused.

“I don’t understand,” she said.

Marcus frowned.

“Last night. How did you end up in the hotel?”

Julia stared at him.

“The hotel?”

“Yes,” Marcus said. “You were found unconscious inside a hotel room. The room was booked under a man’s name. I need you to tell me how you got there.”

Julia remained silent for several seconds, clearly trying to understand what he was saying.

“I… I didn’t go to any hotel last night.”

Marcus leaned closer.

“Think carefully. What do you remember?”

Julia pressed a hand against her forehead.

“Hmm… I remember being inside my car. I was making my way home, and I had a drink of water. Is something wrong? I must have been extremely tired. I arrived home and slept off. I don’t remember anything being wrong.

Marcus’s expression became serious.

“But I found you in Erinn’s hotel.”

She was shocked and surprised and tried to think harder.

“Wait…”

Her expression suddenly changed.

“I remember drinking the water. After that…” She paused. “I started feeling heavy. My body became strangely weak, and then everything went blank.”

Marcus immediately understood.

The water.

It had been drugged.

But by whom?

Before he could say anything, Julia’s phone suddenly rang.,She looked down at the screen.

Mom.”

Julia answered. “Hello?”

Her mother’s voice immediately came through, sharp and agitated.

“What the hell have you done?! Why did you get caught?”

Julia frowned.

“Mom? What happened? What do you mean?”

There was a brief silence. “Oh… you haven’t seen it yet.”

“Seen what?”

“Are you with him?”

Julia became even more confused. “With who?”

Her mother let out a frustrated breath.”Check the latest news.”
