Chapter 185
Wendy could not believe that she had been kidnapped in daylight.
It seemed that the two men had prepared for it. After controlling her, they dragged her directly into a black car that was parked by the roadside. When the door closed, the driver in front stepped on the accelerator and drove away. The speed was so fast that it only took more than ten seconds.
The two men were both tall and strong, so Wendy had no strength to compete with them.
She was pressed in the middle, and the two men who caught her got into the car, one on the left and the other on the right. As long as she struggled slightly, she would be pressed down immediately. The handkerchief covering her mouth had not been taken off, and she could only make a whining sound.
Wendy looked out of the window, the car was driving on the busy street.
She couldn't figure out what the other party was going to do. She didn't have much money... Could they want to rape her?
Thinking of the latter, she was a little scared, but she soon denied the hypothesis because the car was very high-end and there was a sign of a BMW on the steering wheel. Moreover, the two men on the left and right were all in suits. They didn't look like rogues, but like bodyguards hired by rich people.
"Who are you? Where are you taking me?"
"Let me go, or I will call the police! Don't you know that kidnapping is illegal?"
Wendy stared around and could only shout in her heart over and over again.
There was only a faint noise from her in the car, and no one paid attention to it. It was not until the car entered a basement parking lot that the right side man said, "Here we are!"
Before Wendy could look at the surrounding environment, she was taken out of the car.
They went straight into the elevator. At first, she held a glimmer of hope that she could meet someone else to save her, but the elevator went straight up and the surveillance camera was blocked. They went up at a constant speed until there was a "Ding" sound. The number 39 showed on the screen and it was already the top floor.
As soon as she came out, the autumn wind blew in her face.
Wendy soon knew where she was: the top floor of the National Exhibition building, an open garden built for leisure. She had seen it on the poster, but the price here was too high, she hadn't been there yet.
She looked around and found that rows of tables and chairs were empty, as if the entire place was booked by someone.
At this time, Wendy had been brought to the position with the best view on the top floor. Beside her, there were narrow white paint railings. The more she walked forward, the stronger the wind was. When she looked at the side, she would feel dizzy.
She looked away in a panic and heard someone next to her report, "Ms. Hogg, I've brought her here!"
Looking in the direction, Wendy saw that at the end of this place where had even no fence, stood a graceful woman, who was wearing a short cashmere coat, leather pants, and a pair of black high heels.
She was very beautiful. Wendy could not tell her exact age from her delicate makeup. Maybe she was only 36 or 37 years old? A green necklace on her collar seemed to be more than two carats, which was very valuable. This woman must come from an extraordinary family. She held a red wine glass in her hand, without shaking, the wine liquid had already swayed with the wind.
Hearing the sound, she slowly turned around and looked at Wendy. There was a bit of exploration in her eyes. Her eyes were sharp, but not aggressive.
"Good." She raised her hand, indicating for the two men to leave.
After being released, Wendy took half a step forward and finally opened her mouth to speak, "Who are you? Why did you catch me..."
"Don't make noise!" The woman suddenly said. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
"..." Wendy widened her eyes.
She didn't understand the woman's intention, and Wendy didn't know what she wanted to do. When she opened her mouth and was ready to question her again, she saw that the woman took out her mobile phone and made a phone call with a smile. "Hello, Mr. Hogg, it's me! Are you still in a meeting in your company?"
Hearing the word "Mr. Hogg", Wendy couldn't help but be stunned.
The call was still going on, and the woman's look and tone were unhurried. "I am drinking red wine and enjoying the scenery in the open garden of the National Exhibition building! Are you really not coming? It doesn't matter. Anyway, I just kidnapped a young lady surnamed Lim to accompany me here..."
Fifteen minutes later, the elevator door rang again.
Charlie, who was wearing a black suit, strode out. He narrowed his eyes and saw the woman standing by the side of a fence as well as the pale-faced Wendy who was holding the railing tightly. Wendy's hair was in a mess in the autumn wind.
Frowning, Charlie took two steps forward to Wendy.
He quickly came to her and reached out his hand to hold her shoulder. "Wendy, are you okay?"
Wendy opened her mouth but could not say anything. She could only slowly shake her head.
Charlie's breath blew by her ears, and she was no longer as scared as just now.
"Wasn't the meeting just now very important? How can you such a busy man come here?" The woman came over with a red wine glass. Tinted black fingernails knocked the clock on her wrist. "Fifteen minutes and five seconds. So fast! Mr. Hogg must be speeding all the way here, right?"
Charlie did not answer.
When he touched the cold temperature on Wendy's body and saw her frightened eyes, he shouted, "She's afraid of heights!"
It seemed that the woman didn't expect him to have such a big reaction, she was stunned.
Then she looked at Wendy, who was lifted up by Charlie at this moment, Wendy's face was very pale, and her legs were also a little weak. It seemed that she was really afraid of heights.
"Let's get out of here first!" Charlie realized his fierce tone and changed it.
Wendy was weak now, so she had no ability to resist. Charlie held her in his arms. The elevator stopped on the middle floor, and then they walked a few steps more and opened a high-end suite.
"These little hands are so cold. Go in and take a hot bath!"
After entering the door, the woman touched Wendy's hands and said, and then she pushed Wendy into the bathroom.
In fact, Wendy was not cold, she was scared.
Looking at the closed bathroom door, she gasped for breath. She turned on the switch and hot water poured down, her whole body seemed to calm down a lot.
After taking a hot shower, she finally regained her strength.
Wendy walked out slowly and saw that both the woman and Charlie were in the living room. The woman sat on the sofa with her arms around her shoulders, while Charlie was standing beside her with one hand in his pocket.
"Did Simon tell you that?"
"Who else could it be?"
When Charlie heard this, he was about to take out his mobile phone.
The woman raised her hand to stop him. "Forget it, it was me who bribed him to tell me, and he was also tortured by me!"
Suddenly, she looked at Wendy and said, "Why are you sneaking around? Are you eavesdropping on us?"
"I didn't..." Wendy was embarrassed.
The woman got up and walked over. She held her shoulder and looked at Wendy carefully. In conclusion, she said, "Well, it seems that you are not scared dumb! Then I don't have to find a doctor for you!"
"..." Wendy's mouth twitched.
Judging from their conversations and the way they getting along with each other, Wendy could tell that Charlie and this woman were very intimate. So she couldn't help but secretly sized up that woman again. She still couldn't understand, was she Charlie's fiancee? But it was impossible, she didn't look like, and her age didn't match either...
It seemed that Charlie had seen through what she was thinking, he came over and said, "This is my auntie."
