As Carol stood, she waved a hand and said, “No worries, I’m just making the call. It’s up to my uncle to
decide what will happen next.”
As she lowered her head to look up his number, Carol opened the door to her office.
Carol had just stepped out of her office when a woman brushed past her.
While waiting for the call to be answered, Carol glanced at the woman who brushed past her and was
walking toward her office. Frowning slightly, she said, “Stop.”
The woman paused in her steps.
“What’s your name? Why have I never seen you before?”
The woman stood with her back to Carol. She did not move nor speak.
A bad feeling washed over Carol as suspicion arose in her.
She was just about to go forth and interrogate the woman when a hand clapped down onto her
shoulder.
Aaron’s smiling face loomed near Carol’s cheeks. He used his fingers to stroke Carol’s smooth,
beautifully maintained skin as he whispered, “Don’t say anything. I don’t plan to hurt anyone, alright?”
Carol’s heart was racing as she felt overcome by fear. However, she managed to retain a shred of her
rationale and strength, saying shakily, “Who are you? What do you want? Is this a robbery?”
Aaron chuckled and said, “This is a kidnapping. But don’t worry, we’re not kidnapping you.”
Then, Aaron slung his arm around Carol’s neck and walked back into the office with her. The distance
between the two was intimate.
However, Carol’s body was as stiff as a stick. She was basically half-dragged into the office.
Wendy, who had been waiting for updates from Carol, stood instinctively when she saw Carol being
forced back into the office. She asked in a stern voice, “You are…”
The woman Carol had stopped earlier placed a dagger at Wendy’s throat. Her ordinary-looking face
was expressionless as she said, “Don’t say a word or I’ll kill you!”
Wendy took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. She gazed coldly at the woman and at
Aaron, who was holding Carol hostage.
“You really are beautiful.” Aaron’s eyes shone as he looked at Wendy. “You’re the most beautiful
woman I’ve ever seen.”
Wendy curled her hands into fists and remained silent. She merely glared coldly at Aaron.
She understood that she was a lone, weak woman who stood no chance against two thugs with
weapons. It was impossible to fight back against them, and the best thing she could do now was
remain calm. She could not afford to lose her cool.
“You’re very smart not to scream and make a fuss. I’m not a patient person, you see.
“You might be beautiful, but that’s a shame because someone already has their eyes on you.”
Aaron shook his head regretfully as he spoke. Then, he used a karate chop to knock Wendy
unconscious.
Wendy wavered and nearly collapsed to the ground. The woman hurried forth and grabbed her.
“Let’s go,”
Aaron said in a low voice and was just about to knock Carol unconscious when she let out a blood-
curdling scream.
The expression on Aaron’s face changed slightly.
When the sound traveled down the stairs and into Julian’s ears, it was already a weak scream.
However, it was enough to make Julian jump as if he had been electrocuted.
Eyes blazing, Julian seemed to transform into a human dragon as he barrelled straight into Heartland
