My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)
Chapter 1542

I really couldn't think of any other way to escape. The more I tried to think, the more my head hurt. Finally, I turned around and saw Tobias wolfing down the food, his mouth covered in grease.

I couldn't help but say, "Tobias, stop eating. Hurry up and think of a way out. The contract has not been signed yet. Do you want Sebastian to detain us for a lifetime?"

"A lifetime?" He glanced at me and the sumptuous food in front of him. "If he wants to detain us for a lifetime, that doesn't sound too bad. Living in this luxurious villa and being fed with good food. I wouldn't mind spending the rest of my life like this."

Oh my gosh!

This man was hopeless.

I didn't bother talking to him anymore. It had been such a long day, and yet I still couldn't figure out an escape plan, so I had no choice but to sit down in the hall.

The thought of Sonia's parents, who were also being trapped here, made me stand up. I wanted to head out, but Tobias stopped me. "Where are you going?"

"To figure out where the others are staying!" Sonia's parents were old, and they could not afford to be tortured.

He frowned slightly and said, "Don't go. It's useless. Sebastian has a ton of poisonous pets downstairs. If you didn't manage to find the exit and instead got yourself killed, Hendrix will definitely strangle me to death. Just stay here, and someone will come and rescue us."

I pursed my lips. "Will your men come looking for us?" I didn't know what he was talking about. He was from Oakland, and it didn't seem possible that his men would come for us.

He lowered his head and didn't say anything else. He resumed eating and kept praising the chef, saying the food was excellent. I was rendered speechless by this sight, so I stopped talking.

Standing at the door, I hesitated and thought of Naomi's words. I said to Tobias, "You stay here. I'm heading out. Sebastian won't harm me for the time being. He still hasn't gotten his hands on the box yet, so he needs me. This villa is so huge, I'm sure he has installed surveillance cameras to monitor us. He must have been monitoring us all this time, so you don't have to worry!"

After that, I went out of the hall and followed the path that Hodge used to bring me here. After walking for a short while, I discovered that I had been walking in circles. It seemed like I'd been wandering around the fourth floor all this while.

For a moment, I couldn't help frowning. Sebastian's villa must have been designed to replicate a maze, or else he wouldn't have made it this huge.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but stop in my tracks. I stood in place and studied my surroundings quietly. I was surrounded by walls, and I couldn't seem to find the stairs. All the doors were identical, and there were a lot of intersecting hallways. I couldn't remember where I came from.

I grew more and more anxious.

Looking at all the closed doors, I reached out and tried to open them, but to my surprise, all of them were locked.

My anxiety was building.

I could vaguely hear the voices of men and women, and I hesitated for a moment before I headed towards the source of the voices. I didn't expect it to lead me to a door.

Hearing the voices echoing from the other side of the door, I raised my hand and pushed the door open. Suddenly, I was stupefied by the scene inside.

The room was huge, but the lights were dim.

Everyone inside the room was alarmed by my sudden appearance. Sebastian was sitting leisurely on the sofa, watching the performance in front of him.

He was swirling a glass of red wine in his hand, but he paused as soon as he saw me. He looked back at me and raised his eyebrows. "Since you have found your way here, join us. Let's enjoy the show!"
