Chapter 263 Appointment_1
“Deer Inn? Room 1131? Are you sure it’s this room?”
“Positive, my man delivered the person there.”
Upon hearing this, Greg Jensen suddenlyughed and said, “You keep an eye on it for now. Don’t get involved unless I call you.”
“Got it, I understand.”
After hanging up, Greg Jensen’s brow furrowed slightly as he muttered to himself, “I have nothing to do with Ang Stuart; why is Cindy Harrison after her?”
Just as he was thinking, the phone rang again. It was Ang Stuart calling.
Greg Jensen was startled but picked up the phone, curious as to what game Cindy Harrison was ying.
“Mr. Jensen, where are you?”
Ang Stuart’s voice trembled a bit but quickly returned to normal. However, her tone was different than usual—coy and somewhat seductive.
Greg Jensen responded indifferently, “At home, what’s up?”<div>
Ang Stuart hesitated and said, “Mr. Jensen, I… I’m scared. Could youe and keep mepany?”
“Sure.”
“Ah, really?”
“Of course, it’s true. Where are you?”
Hearing other voices in the background, Greg Jensen silentlyughed to himself. His senses were far sharper than the average person.
A sound that might seem quiet to others was crystal clear to Greg Jensen’s ears.
After a moment of silence on the other end, Ang Stuart finally said, “Deer Inn, room 1131.”
“Alright, wait for me.”
After hanging up, Greg Jensen couldn’t help but burst intoughter and picked up his phone to call Theo Carter.
“Have you removed the equipment from room 1131?”
“Ah, not… not yet.”
Theo Carter, who thought his peculiar hobby had been discovered, immediately became nervous and hurriedly said, “Mr. Jensen, I’ll go take down the equipment right away.”
“Don’t remove it; I need it tonight. Go over and get ready.”
“Okay, I understand.”
Theo Carter breathed a sigh of relief and quickly drove to the Deer Inn.
Meanwhile, Greg Jensen changed into casual clothes and asked Trey Holmes to drive him to the Deer Inn.
He had already guessed what Cindy Harrison was nning, but he found it hard to believe that the gentle and frail girl could do such a thing.
Trey Holmes didn’t ask any questions, but her curious gaze said it all.
“It’s not a date. Don’t think dirty.”<div>
“Okay, boss.”
As Greg Jensen observed herposed demeanor, he couldn’t help but add, “Take the car back yourselfter; I don’t think I’ll being back.”
Pfft!
Trey Holmes, who seldomughed, suddenly let out augh before her face turned red and she said, “Sorry, boss, I wasn’tughing at you.”<div>
A disgruntled Greg Jensen said wordlessly, “It’s not what you’re thinking. Forget it, I can’t exin it to you.”
The two quickly arrived at the hotel entrance and waited a moment before another car pulled up.
Then the rear car door suddenly opened, and Theo Carter jumped in.
“This is my assistant Trey Holmes.”
After introducing her, Greg Jensen pointed towards Theo Carter and said, “He’s Theo Carter. If I end up in the Inspection Bureau, you two go find Brandon Brent together and figure it out.”
“The Inspection Bureau?”
Trey Holmes was taken aback and said nkly, “When you said you wouldn’t being back, you meant the Inspection Bureau?”
“Yeah, that’s a possibility. No, it’s a certainty.”
Greg Jensen’s lips curled into a cold smirk and said, “They won’t rest until they’ve put me in there tonight.”
Hearing this, Theo Carter’s expression darkened, and he said coldly, “Mr. Jensen, who’s trying to take you down?”
Greg Jensen nced at him,ughter hinted at the edge of his smile as he said, “What? Are you offering to take care of them for me?”
Theo Carter patted his chest and said, “That’s right, anyone who dares to harm Mr. Jensen is as good as taking on me, Theo Carter!”
“Alright then, tonight Cindy Harrison is the one setting me up, and there might be Ethan Locke’s tricks involved too. Go now and take care of the pair of them.”<div>
“Ethan… Ethan Locke?”
Watching Theo Carter’s stupefied face, Greg couldn’t help but tease, “What’s the matter? Scared?”
“Heh heh…”
Theo Carter was too embarrassed to admit it but didn’t have the guts to deny it, so he could only muster a foolish chuckle.
“Okay, enough with the jokes for now. I’ll head in first. Remember to keep the recording safe, Theo. Whether I make it out alive depends on you now.”
“Rest assured, Mr. Jensen, I will keep the recording safe.”
“Mhm.”
Greg felt rtively confident in Theo because he knew if he didn’t make it out, Theo would be in trouble too.
He nced at his watch, figured it was about time, and got out of the car to enter the Deer Inn.
Inside room 1131, Ang Stuart sat on the bed, her expression tense, while Cindy Harrison and Judy Lampe stood in front of her.
Cindy Harrison said coldly, “If you do well, you’ll get five hundred thousand. If not, let your parents prepare to im your body.”
“I…”
Terrified, Ang’s face turned pale, and she trembled without saying a word.<div>
Judy Lampe spoke softly, “Little sister, don’t be afraid. As long as you do as you’re told, not only will you be safe, but you’ll also get a hefty sum of money. Why wouldn’t you do it?”
Ang’s voice trembled as she said, “I… I’ll obey, I’ll do anything you ask. Just please don’t hurt me.”
Just then, one of Ethan Locke’s men walked in and said, “Miss Harrison, Greg Jensen ising up.”
“Mhm, okay, let’s head to the room across the hall, then.”
“Let’s go.”
Before leaving, Cindy Harrison gave Ang a deep, probing look. Although she said nothing, the sinister glint in her eyes sent chills down Ang’s spine.
…
Cindy Harrison and Judy Lampe, along with the others, left room 1131 and went to the opposite room. They cracked the door open just enough to carefully observe the hallway.
After a moment, the elevator door opened, and Greg Jensen stepped out.
It was his first time in such a high-end hotel. He scanned the quiet hallway and, following the room directory signs nearby, reached the door of room 1131.
Knock, knock, knock!
The door opened, and when Ang saw that the visitor was Greg Jensen, she threw herself onto him, crying, “Big brother Greg, you’ve finallye.”
She was wearing a ckce slip nightgown, so thin that it seemed she was afraid Greg would run away; she clung to him tightly.<div>
Greg internally sneered but kept aposed face, smiling, “Aren’t you going to invite me in?”
Ang nced at the room across and said with sudden realization, “Oh, yes,e in, please.”
Greg followed her in, closing the door behind him. As he did, he caught a glimpse of the opposite door with a barely-there smile ying on his lips.
“What happened?”
“Nothing… nothing happened, I… I had a nightmare and got scared, so I called you.”
Ang kept her head low, her voice barely above a whisper.
Greg’s smile slowly faded as he said seriously, “Ang, tell me what’s really going on. You can tell me.
Whatever it is, I’ll help you sort it out.”
“Really?”
Ang lifted her head, her face streaked with tears.
Greg nodded earnestly, “Yes, really. Just tell me, and I can solve anything for you. No one in this world can hurt you.”
Under Greg’s gaze, Ang hesitated, but the vicious look in Cindy Harrison’s eyes made her shiver involuntarily.
Then, as if possessed, she ripped her nightgown to shreds, exposing her fair skin underneath.
