This thought puzzled Adrian deeply.

If Bennett was indeed alive, why would he remain hidden?

It was then that Shawn’s voice reached Adrian again.

“Mr.

Fredrick looks severely injured, and it’s getting darker now; we need to leave swiftly.

With immediate agreement, Adrian nodded, and they quickly took Holden back and got on a plane destined for a safe location.

As Holden awoke, the first sight that greeted him was a doctor tending to his hand with a bandage.

Ignoring his injuries, Holden shoved the doctor aside and began frantically calling for Ariana.

Adrian, who had been idly flipping through a magazine nearby, snapped the magazine shut and approached Holden, waving.

“Hey, you remember me?” he asked with a smile.

Given Holden’s car accident five years ago, which had wiped his memory, Adrian was always concerned Holden might lose his memory agai

 

and asked, “Where is Ariana?”

It seemed Holden hadn’t forgotten anything.

Adrian’s lips curved into a relieved smile as he responded, “Don’t worry.

After the doctor finished bandaging him, he donned a jacket passed to him by one of his men.

As he slipped into the jacket, Holden found a piece of paper in his pocket.

Holden read the message on the piece of paper.

“Don’t forget the deal you promised.

It was signed by Bennett.

“What’s this?” Peering over, Adrian caught sight of the note, and his curiosity surged.

“Is this from Bennett? What did you promise him? It better not be something about Ariana.

You shouldn’t be making those kinds of promises!”

Holden’s gaze fell, and he was lost in thought.
