Nolan's hunch was spot on. Even before he arrived, his cell buzzed with an urgent call from his buddy.
Regina had indeed checked into the Golden Hotel, just a stone's throw from his office.
"Can you find out which floor she's on?"
"Room 414! You better hurry," came the grave voice from the other line. "I caught a glimpse of her wandering the hallway, looking all out of sorts, like she's been drugged or something..."
He cut himself off, sensing the weight of the situation on Nolan's end.
"Thanks, I owe you one. I'll make it up to you after all this is over."
"Hey, what are friends for? The most important thing is she's okay. Don't worry, I've already alerted the hotel staff. Let's just hope... we're not too late. Who the hell has the guts to pull this kind of sleazy stunt in my hotel..."
Nolan barely heard the rest. He ended the call, floored the gas pedal, and made a beeline for the hotel. Thankfully, it wasn't too far off.
Meanwhile, the hotel staff were in full swing, having been alerted to a severe incident in room 414. Following a dire command from their CEO, they had to respond swiftly.
"What the heck is going on?" a staff member panted while sprinting down the corridor. "I've been here years and never seen a code red like this."
"Beats me," another gasped, "but the boss looked furious. No point guessing now, we need to get there ASAP."
The thug, clutching the hotel key card, navigated the corridors with a swagger.
Their demeanor softened, "Oh, you're staying with us. Sorry for the intrusion. There's been an incident, and we're just ensuring everyone's safety. Hope you're not upset."
The thug flashed a grin, playing the understanding gentleman, "Of course, the hotel's just looking out for us guests, right? Well, if it's all good, I'll head in now."
Meanwhile, Nolan had stormed into the hotel lobby, battling to keep his emotions in check until he reached the fourth floor. He marched straight to room 414.
"Mr. Harris."
The staff at the door bowed their heads in recognition. Mr. Harris was a close friend of their CEO, a fact well-known among the crew.
But they couldn't fathom why he was here now, at the center of the chaos.
