The Heart Left Behind (Cole and Yvonne) novel Chapter 231

I walked over to the leader of the hotel staff. He smiled stiffly at me, his eyes a little shifty.

"It looks like you never wanted to capture him in the first place."

I was about to throw a punch at him when the door behind me opened. Yvonne threw herself onto me, sobbing, "Cole, I knew you'd come."

She was sweating profusely with her hair stuck to her face. She had not even removed her makeup.

The lighting in her room was dark, only dimly lit by the light coming from her laptop screen. Luckily, she was not asleep yet. If she had gone to bed, one could not imagine what would've happened.

I scanned around and saw no bodyguards. I had clearly arranged bodyguards for her. Why was no one here?

"Did you hear anything strange in your room?"

Did that man kidnap all of my bodyguards? Was this something one person could do?

I started to be more wary about the entire incident. That man surely had an accomplice. He could not possibly have gotten rid of all the bodyguards on his own.

"I heard the door lock opening."

Yvonne knew I had sent her quite a lot of bodyguards. She finally realized something was off. "Y-Your men. They're gone."

She was smart. She instantly knew what had happened.

"If I'm right, they've been killed."

First, Xavier. Then, Yvonne.

"Looks like these bunch of people know me well."

What were they trying to do? Intimidate me?

Yvonne looked at me in confusion. "Cole, do you know those men?"
