"Baby Shannon, don't scream! I won't hurt you! I just want to invite you to my house as a guest. I've collected so many things of yours, would you like to take a look?" The man's eyes became more and more fanatical as he spoke. His expression was even abnormal. Just as she was about to be pushed into the car, Brendon appeared and Shannon immediately shouted, "Brendon, help me!"
...
Ranita waited for Brendon. But he didn't come back and the food had gone cold. Ranita had the room service pack up her things and hesitated before finally calling Brendon.
"Beep beep beep! The number you have dialed is busy, please try again later," came the mechanical voice from her phone.
Ranita put her phone away and sent Brendon a message, "When you see this message please reply."
"Is Miss Murphy okay?"
But there was no response.
Ranita worked on some documents but found herself daydreaming until her phone rang.
"Brendon... where are you?"
"I'm with Shannon. Something unexpected happened here so I might need to stay with her tonight instead of coming back."
Unexpected? How many unexpected things could happen with Shannon?
She had expected it but it still hurt every time.
Brendon saw that she was silent and explained, "She ran into an obsessed fan in the parking lot who almost kidnapped her. She's not feeling well now so I can't leave."
"Julia is also there."
Julia went over to handle Shannon's situation while that crazy fan got arrested by police.
