Mr Warner Your Ex wila
Chapter 173
Chapter 173
Since Linda could not be found and her phone could not be reached, Jane could only go to the front desk to inquire about her.
After a brief investigation, she learned that Linda had not checked out at all, and because the hotel staff had changed shifts, no one present could tell if she went out last night or not.
In the end, she asked them to check the surveillance cameras. As a result, it was blocked and
nothing was captured.
In desperation, when Jane was about to call the police, she received a message on her phone. Attached there was also Linda’s picture.
The message told her that if she wanted to save Linda, she have to fly to the US. She was not allowed to tell anyone about this, otherwise, Linda would get hurt or be killed.
With this method, Jane immediately knew that the person behind this was Simon. He was really a sinister and despicable man.
After hesitating for a moment, Jane still booked a flight to the US. It was because Linda had been in contact with her that she would be targeted by Simon. She could not just ignore it.
She had just booked her flight and was traveling to the airport when she received a call from Drake.
“Are you running away again?!” As soon as the call was connected, Drake’s brisk questioning
sounded.
She was shocked for a moment before replying angrily, “Hmph! Do you think with your means, I can escape?!”
“Something happened to Linda. I’m going to save her!” Jane said with urgency in her tone.
Drake rummaged through his memory for a moment before realizing who Linda was.
“What happened?” Drake also calmed down.
“It’s all your fault. Linda visited me yesterday. Maybe that sinister Simon found out. He told me to see him alone, otherwise, Linda would be killed.” Jane did not hide the truth either.
“Then don’t you think that by really going there alone, you’re throwing yourself in his trap?” Drake
asked.
Jane was stunned. Yes, he was right. She was too anxious to ignore this point.
Simon did all these so she could come to his trap, voluntarily.
Having seen his methods, she knew that she could not escape from his hands.
“Then tell me, what should we do now?” She could only pin her hopes on Drake, taking for granted
that he was also in the same boat now.
The reason why she and Linda were on Simon’s radar was entirely because of Drake, so he should be responsible for saving them.
“Wait for me at the airport.” After that, Drake hung up the phone and rushed to the airport.
When Drake arrived, 303 also appeared. Only then did Jane realize that her every move was under 303’s surveillance. That was why Drake knew of her actions immediately.
Chapter 173
Before, 303 had always followed Jane openly, but after a while, she still could not get used to having someone following her all the time, so she asked Drake to stop letting 303 follow her.
Drake agreed, but only on the surface. 303 still followed her without her knowledge.
It was precisely because of his precautions that Simon’s men could do nothing to her. That was why they turned their attention to Linda, who had been in contact with Jane.
Drake found Jane at the airport and then took her on the plane to the US.
On the plane, they were seated together, but they did not talk to each other. Halfway through the flight, Jane became drowsy. Seeing this, Drake asked a flight attendant for a blanket to cover her
The flight attendant saw that Drake was cold and handsome. He was also seated in first class. She thought that he was traveling alone because Jane and he did not talk to each other when boarding. the plane.
Thinking that the blanket was for himself, the flight attendant pretended to stumble when she brought the blanket, trying to fall into his lap.
Seeing that she was about to land in his lap, Drake pushed her away forcefully.
With such force, the flight attendant fell to the floor. Shocked by this event, she screamed, waking Jane from her drowsy state and attracting the attention of the people around them.
The flight attendant felt extremely ashamed. She thought her little ‘accident‘ would arouse the man’s compassion. In the end, he saw through her and pushed her away.
She carefully stood up and handed him the blanket, “I’m sorry, Sir. This is the blanket you asked for.”
Handing over the blanket, she wanted to leave quickly, so as not to continue to be embarrassed.
However, he did not take the blanket, but just said coldly, “Take it away, it’s too dirty!”
Her face turned even paler as she finally left in shame.
The other passengers who saw all these murmured. Jane was confused. It was not until the woman behind her explained to her that she realized what happened.
“You have to pay attention, miss. Your husband is so handsome, tempting many women. However, your husband really loves you and knows how to push them away.”
Hearing the woman’s words, Jane blushed. She looked at the man beside her with complicated eyes. ‘Even with his serious and frosty face, there were still others who want to flirt with him?
However, she thought back to her past self. When she met Drake’s aloof and irked face, she did not change her infatuation. She also thought that she could get his affection. It was so ridiculous.
When the plane landed, Jane immediately called the phone number that sent the message. After a while, the call was connected.
“You didn’t follow the instruction, Miss Bentley. I told you to come alone.”
Hearing that, Jane looked around. She guessed that there must be Simon’s people around. But she did not care, and said coldly to Simon over the phone, “You told me this because you want to use me to threaten Drake. That’s why I brought him here just to save you from trouble.”
you then.”
Hearing her reply, Simon was silent for a moment, then sneered, “So, I should thank
“No need to thank me, just let my friend go.” Jane was not afraid of Simon’s coercion.
Chapter 173
“Hmph, you know how to take a mile, Miss Bentley. You and Drake are a match made in Heaven.” Simon snorted coldly.
“Stop talking nonsense. Tell me the address and requirements.”
After getting the address, the two of them rushed over.
It was an underground casino and Simon’s secret property.
Seeing the two of them walking side by side, Simon’s expression was gloomy and terrifying.
During this time, Intel suffered from the Warner Group. Its sales had dropped significantly, and even its stock had been plummeting. Although he could deal with it, it was still a heavy blow to the
company.
At this moment, Simon’s resentment towards Drake had already reached its peak.
“Where is she?” Walking into the underground casino, Jane looked at Simon coldly and questioned
him.
“I think you’ve made a mistake, Miss Bentley. Do you really think I’ll just let my hostage go that easily?”
