In an instant, all desires vanished, and he only knew that he didn’t want to die.
Callie was determined, her fingers gripping the phone tightly, taking this opportunity to ask, “Who sent you here?”
“… It was me, myself!” The person was extremely afraid, all traces of arrogance gone, his voice trembling.
She didn’t believe him, increasing the pressure!
“Miss, it really was me. I was attracted to you!”
Callie was skeptical. Taking advantage of the situation, she stood up, thinking that those people who had brought her here must have had more than just rape in mind.
So what he said must be true.
“Who ordered you to capture me?”
“I… I don’t know, I’m just a thug in Dragonstone. I have no idea who my superiors are!” The person became even more fearful.
“Then how did you know I was here? Earlier, you mentioned seeing me somewhere!”
“I’ve seen you a few times in Dragonstone. I thought… I thought you were beautiful.”
Callie increased the pressure on his forehead. “What is this place used for?”
“I… I don’t know. It’s for the club. It’s not my responsibility.”
“Then whose responsibility is it?”
“Sullivan…”
Hearing a few key words, she had an idea. It turned out it was because of those people in Dragonstone. But why did they kidnap her? Jaquan was still there, posing as a threat. It was too brazen…
Unless this person was even higher-ranking than them! Callie suddenly realized.
But who could it be? Could it be Owen, as they mentioned?
“You have the audacity to touch a woman they kidnapped. You must have been prepared.”
“I… The people locked up here never come out again, so I dared to…” He stammered.
No wonder. Those people wanted her to self-destruct.
Callie pushed the man away. “Get out!”
The man was unwilling, but she still had a gun in her hand. He stumbled and ran out of the warehouse, locking the door behind him before leaving.
She put away the gun, her hand visibly trembling.
Nelson had made arrangements before she came, giving her a gun for self-defense.
Callie sat down slowly on the ground, hugging her knees tightly, understanding the cause and process of everything.
They captured her to control Jaquan.
They believed she was important.
Jaquan also realized this at the same time.
At the same time, he led a group of men and was stopped by Kieran at the entrance of Dragonstone. Kieran threatened, “Jaquan! If anything happens to Madam, we will only hold you responsible!”
Jaquan stood with his hands behind his back, his face dark. He had just learned that Callie had gone missing but quickly understood the reason.
“Take your men and leave.” A short and decisive sentence to counter Kieran’s anger.
Kieran’s expression twitched. “What do you mean?”
“I said leave. I will bring her back to you!” After saying this, Jaquan led his men straight through Kieran’s bodyguards and left in a car.
The weather was bad today, with continuous drizzle. Jaquan’s expression matched the gloomy atmosphere.
The vehicle sped all the way and arrived at a secluded courtyard in Anbusea. He got out of the car and walked in on foot.
There were guards at the entrance of the warehouse. When they saw Jaquan, they immediately stood up. “Jaquan.”
“Why is security so tight today?” Jaquan smiled insincerely.
The guards exchanged glances and replied, “A new batch of goods just arrived, and Owen is taking it very seriously.”
“I want to take a look.”
“That’s not a good idea. Please don’t make things difficult for us.”
“What kind of goods are they that I can’t even see?” Jaquan glanced sideways, seemingly indifferent.
“They’re quite important and kept hidden from sight.”
