Trapped in Love

Chapter 935

In a daze, Reuben witnessed Julian’s death before him.

His body grew heavier with each passing second, and he struggled to drag his feet toward Julian.

Elvira glanced at Scott nearby, and he nodded slightly.

Reuben approached Julian, sinking to his knees.

Julian lay in a pool of blood.

Tears welled up in Reuben’s eyes.

He raised his shaky hands and placed them on Julian’s lifeless, widened eyes.

He gnashed his teeth and assisted Julian in closing his eyes, all the while keeping his head low, crying.

“I’m sorry… I’m so sorry, Julian!” Kneeling there, he didn’t cease his repentance.

At that moment, someone opened the office door.

Rowan entered, and the tragic scene made him pale.

Scott tilted his head and looked at Rowan.

“Did you manage to get everyone here?” Rowan suppressed his anger and replied.

“Yes, Mr. Hendrix.” Reuben turned his head slowly toward Rowan, Rowan awkwardly looked away.

A low snort escaped Reuben.

It turned out they had made the right guess.

Scott rose to his feet and glanced at Reuben indifferently.

“You should come along and get things done.

with me.” He walked out of the office, with Elvira following.

After a few seconds, Reuben stood up in a trance, behaving like a puppet as he exited the office.

While brushing past Rowan, the latter grabbed Reuben’s arm and asked in a low voice, “Are you going to work for him, Reuben? Are you out of your mind?” Reuben laughed coldly.

“Why can’t I, since you’ve done something you shouldn’t?” “I was forced“” Reuben ignored Rowan, freed his arm, and caught up with Scott.

Rowan had no choice but to follow them.

Paige was sitting nearby, hugging her knees and staring As noon approached and Reuben had yet to call, Lucas grew more vexed.

“Did something happen to Reuben and Julian?” he asked.

Alex pinched his brows.

“I don’t know!” “I think Scott must have come, or else Reuben would have called or texted us already,” Lucas speculated.

Their conversation made Paige slowly lift her head.

“What is Scott doing here?” Alex explained.

“We guess he’s going to snatch all of Evan’s business and properties.” Paige scoffed, “What an absolute demon.” “No! I’ve got to go to the company to get some clues, Lucas said with frustration.

Alex frowned.

“Aren’t you going to call your father?” Lucas was stunned as he realized what he should do.

“Yeah, I’ll ask him to get his men to look things up here.” After that, he went out to make a call.

Alex locked at Paige and sat down beside her.

Paige immediately said, “Please don’t mention our problem, Alex.” Alex took a deep breath and replied, “Okay, we’ll wait until these things are over.” Paige nodded.

“Have you tried calling Carol?” “No, I’m sure she doesn’t have her phone with her,” Alex explained.

Downcast, Paige asked, “Have you ever thought of how to rescue her?” Alex exhaled.

“We haven’t managed to come to that part yet, but the possibility of rescuing her is very slim as long as Scott is still alive.” Paige grabbed Alex’s hand.

“Do you need me to do anything? I’ll do anything as long as I can help you.

save Caroll” Feeling sorry for her, Alex said, “No, you just need to stay here.

I don’t want to see you in danger.” Paige felt remorseful because she couldn’t help at all.

She retrieved her hand and stopped talking.

Lucas came back very fast and said, “My dad has agreed to help look for Evan.

Let’s head to the company
