Chapter 3030
Gwen closed her eyes. Thank God.
Thank God none of Luke’s old subordinates remembered what she looked like.
Gwen let out a sigh of relief amid Ben’s howls and the woman’s wails of agony.
She wondered why Ben decided to bring the woman here, but now, it turned out that Ben saved her life.
If they did not show up here, Tyson’s men would have turned the entire place upside down to search for her, and she would surely be caught.
The car started, and the woman’s howls grew further and further away.
Finally, after the car was out of earshot, Gwen let out another exhale of relief and texted Luna. [You can come over now.]
Before this, Stefan specifically warned her not to leave the room, not before Luna and Joshua arrived.
Taking his instruction to heart, she decided to continue waiting for them in the little room.
Luna’s reply came quickly. [The jam has subsided too. Well be right over!]
Gwen felt as though a weight was lifted off her shoulders.
“Gwen?” all of a sudden, Ben’s voice rang out.
Gwen’s entire body stiffened.
She could tell from the proximity of Ben’s voice that he was standing right on the other side of the door!
Her heart leaped into her throat.
“Gwen,” Ben knocked gently on the door, a hint of contempt in his tone, “you’re inside, aren’t you? I know you’re there. I was under the impression that a hobo moved into this house, but turns out it was you.”
He sneered and continued, “I knew you were hiding here when those thugs mentioned it. The only reason I didn’t tell them is because I wanted to capture you myself and turn you in for a reward. I can’t believe how stupid those idiots are. They don’t know what you look like and even got the wrong woman.”
He curled his lips into a smirk. “But I guess this works perfectly in my favor. Since they’ve taken her away, I don’t have to share my reward with her anymore and can take it all for myself!”
Ben’s words sent a chill down her spine. She could not believe the words that came out of his mouth!
Just a few minutes ago he was intertwined with that woman, and yet now he was allowing her to be captured out of greed! C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
“Open the door, Gwen. You can run but you can’t hide,” Ben started to push against the door, “you’re far too weak, and I can easily overpower you!”
As he said this, he started shoving harder.
Gwen instinctively began resisting. Although the door was locked, she was still worried that Ben would be able to break the lock!
After his attempts proved to be futile, Ben burst into laughter. “You locked yourself in there, didn’t you? Did you think you’d be safe just because of this?”
As he said this, he reached out and plucked the set of keys that were hanging around his neck off their chain. “Too bad that I still keep all the keys to this house, Gwen!”
With that, he put the key into the hole and began to turn.
