He struggled to repeat his name and explained, “Mayfield recommended me to work here.

He said he had informed you and that you had approved…”

The murderous look in Bennett’s eyes intensified.

His grip on Kamdyn’s neck tightened.

Kamdyn struggled for breath, feeling suffocated.

His face turned red due to lack of air.

“Mr.

Olson, I don’t know what I’ve done wrong.

But please spare my life.

I’ll do anything…”

His voice faltered, and blue veins bulged on his forehead.

His eyes began to roll, and his complexion became paler.

Eventually, he stopped breathing.

Bennett let go of Kamdyn disdainfully.

He let Kamdyn slump to the floor.

He then turned around, his cold eyes sweeping the people present.

“Everyone, listen carefully.

Find the man who came in with me just now.

I want to see him; I don’t care if he is dead or alive,” he ordered.

Before anyone could say a word, he pointed at Kamdyn’s lifeless body and continued, “If I don’t see him by the end of the banquet, this will also happen to you.

The atmosphere at the scene was tense.

Everyone feared Bennett would suddenly explode and kill them like he had killed Kamdyn, so they quickly obeyed his orders and left.

Just then, the person who was responsible for watching over Ariana hurried in.

Noticing Bennett’s grim expression, he became nervous but carefully reported, “Mr.

Olson, Miss Edwards is missing…”

“What did you just say?” In a rage, Bennett kicked the man in the chest and furiously cursed, “Losers! A bunch of losers! You can’t even do your job right!”

Bennett kept kicking him until he spat out blood.

Bennett had believed that Ariana had come to accept her fate, but he hadn’t expected her to attempt to

 

escape under his watch.

Why? Why did she have to leave? Wouldn’t it be better to stay with him? Did she really need to anger him and endure the consequences?

Bennett couldn’t stop thinking about the man who had impersonated Kamdyn earlier.

Why did it also happen today? He didn’t believe it was a coincidence.

Was there a link between these two matters?

Bennett’s fists tightened as he vowed to himself that he would get Ariana back and make her regret ever crossing him.

He envisioned her tamed and fully under his control, never thinking of leaving him again.

Drawing in a deep breath, he regained his composure.

“Send K out,” he commanded.

“Bring Ariana back alive.

I need her to be alive.

Meanwhile, Ariana and the male bodyguard dodged the guards, slipping past them to the rear exit and finding the getaway car.

“Miss Edwards, get inside the car.

That’s our ride,” the bodyguard said urgently.

Ariana dashed for the car and quickly climbed into the backseat.

Just as she closed the car door, she felt strong arms encircle her from behind.

The familiar scent filled her senses, and she was sure this was Holden’s embrace, the one she had dreamed of for a long time.

But when she turned her head, her heart skipped a beat.

Fraser’s face stared back at her, and Ariana froze in shock, feeling an urgent need to break free from his grip.

“Fraser” quickly released her and tore off the mask covering his face.

It was actually Holden.
