Amidst the revelry, Xavier noticed Juliet lingering in the corner, engrossed in her phone. He approached and tapped her on the shoulder. Juliet, what are you up to!”
“Get lost.” Juliet snapped, shaking off his hand as she walked toward the exit with her phone. An inexplicable unease gnawed at her, perhaps related
10 Xavier’s recent troubles
Ignoring Xavier’s further comments, Juliet stepped outside and was greeted by a gust of cold wind that made her shiver in her gray sweater. The chill was more pronounced against her sweat– dampened skin.
However, she was too preoccupied to care. She kept dialing Mikayla’s number. At first, there was no answer. Now it went straight to voicemail.
Juliet paced back and forth as she clutched her phone. She thought, Should I call Mr. Salvatore and check if Mikayla’s home? But if it turns out to be a false alarm, I’d only worry them for nothing
As Juliet wrestled with indecision, a sleek black Porsche Cayenne pulled up nearby,
A man in a perfectly tailored black suit stepped out, his face as cold and handsome as ever. Even from a distance, his icy demeanor radiated immense pressure.
It was Elvis, the overlord of the underworld.
“What’s going on!”
His voice, devoid of warmth, cut through the night.
A man in a matching suit approached Elvis, choosing his words carefully. “We were following Ms. Salvatore after she left work. She got woman’s car at Victory Restaurant. They drove around the city during rush hour, and we lost them on Fullbright Road…”
“You lost them!” Elvis‘ steps faltered, his voice chilling the air further, causing the man to shiver.

“But that sports car belongs to
As soon as Elvis raised his hand, a woman suddenly appeared next to him. The anxiety in her eyes was easily captured by Elvis.
“Is the Ms. Salvatore he mentioned Mikayla Salvatore?” “Juliet’s voice trembled as she hoped against hope that she had misheard.

Elvis narrowed his eyes, his icy gaze piercing through the man who had just reported to him. The man stood frozen, unsure how to respond.
Certain matters, especially those involving Juliet, were not meant for outsiders.
“Is it?” Juliet lifted her gaze, her expressive eyes locking with Elvis frosty stare. Petite and slightly plump, she appeared even smaller standing before
Elvis.
After a brief hesitation, Elvis confirmed in his deep voice, “Yes.”
“Then we should call the security personnel!” Juliet, now certain, gripped her phone, ready to dial. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
The next second. Elvis grabbed her hand. “It’s no use asking the security personnel for this.”
Only a few people could drive Kashton’s car, and if it was a woman who took Mikayla, he had a good idea who it was.
Especially since she chose to act while Carlos was away.
Juliet shivered at the coldness of Elvis‘ touch, reminiscent of that icy hand from the other night..
She wondered why a man’s hand was so

Juliet tried to shake off Elvis‘ hand and said, “Let go of me!”

Only then did Elvis realize he had been gripping too hard. He released her, and five red marks stood out starkly on her pale skin.
Juliet shook her hand to ease the pain and, with suspicion in her eyes, asked, “If we don’t call security personnel, how will you find Mikayla?”
*Leave that to me.” Elvis replied, sidestepping her as he headed into Septem Nightclub
But Juliet quickly caught up. “She’s my best friend. I can’t just do nothing! If you don’t let me follow, I’ll call the security personnel myselff”
She raised her phone defiantly. Elvis‘ icy gaze flickered over her, while the black–clad man behind him awaited his boss‘ signal, ready to eject her.
However, Elvis remained.

They entered a seemingly ordinary private room, guanded by another man in black stationed outside Inside, apart from two additional LCD screens, looked like any other private room. However, when Elvis touched something, a wall shifted aside, revealing a hidden passage.
Juliet watches quietly, secretly astonished, as she had only seen such scenes in movies.

time went by, the air was thick with tension. Juliet’s eyes blurred as she stared at the LCD screens, unable to spot the car Elvis had mentioned.
“Boss, I found the car,” one of the operators in white suddenly exclaimed as he pointed at the LCD screen to Elvis
Elvis stared at the LCD screen coldly and said, “Look carefully. Which directions is this car going?” he commanded.
Standing tall, Elvis slipped his lunds into his pockets, his gaze darkened with contemplation.
‘Should I call Carlo he thought.
He knew Deidre’s ruthless nature all too well.
“Call Carlos,” Juliet urged
It was the first time she had seen Elvis show any sign of hesitation
Feeling that she had guessed it right, Juliet added, “Carlos is Mikayla’s fiancé. They’re getting married in a few days. If something happens to her now, he will regret it for the rest of his life”
