Chapter 445


    Eleanor looked across the room, utterly baffled. Bernards sudden appearance seemed a little too


    convenient. He had a private estate in A City and was a notorious neat freak. Even the most luxurious


    hotels couldn’t satisfy his standards. So why on earth was he here?


    While pondering, Eleanor noticed Pearce ncing at her phone.


    *So, Mr. Law’s not showing up?


    The cops, who were about to go back to the fire exit to wait for the criminal, halted at the sound of


    Pearce’s surprised voice.


    “What happened?”


    Eleanor snapped out of her thoughts and quickly exined herself to the police.

    “Officers, I’m sorry. It seems Mr. Law got wind of our operation and changed his ns. He’s noting


    today.”


    After apologizing, she bowed to the cops again in apology


    “Sorry to have you guys run around for nothing.


    Though they felt like their time was wasted, the cops didn’t me her. Instead, they reminded the two


    to call them if anything came up.


    After thanking the police, Eleanor and Pearce watched them leave. The rest of the hotel staff quickly


    evacuated the building.


    After they left, Pearce and Eleanor stepped into the elevator, headed to the underground parking lot,


    and got in the car.


    While starting the car, Pearce asked Eleanor, “Mr. Law is a sly fox. Are you still going to meet him


    tomorrow?


    Eleanor seemed uncertain, “The Midnight Bar is his turf. I might walk in and nevere back.”


    After driving out of the parking lot, Pearce nced at Eleanor, “We’ve already bothered the cops today.


    It won’t feel right to call them again tomorrow. But if you really want to catch him, I can call some


    buddies to back you up!*


    Eleanor felt the warmth in Pearce’s offer, “Thank you, Mr. Hooper.”


    Pearce lifted his right hand from the steering wheel, raised his index finger, and wagged it, “Don’t get


    me wrong. I just love the thrill of catching criminals!”


    Eleanor,


    She shouldn’t have expected anything from Pearce’s kindheartedness.


    Back


    at the hotel, Bernard received a message that everyone had left. He quickly exited his room.


    He hurried into the elevator, intending to find Eleanor. Just then, a call from Caleb came in, “Sir, I found


    out. A month ago, someone impersonated you and attacked Ms. Shultz in the hospital’s underground


    parking lot. He even tried to assault her. Pearce saved her.”


    Bernard’s gaze


    Who dared


    I on the descending elevator numbers,


    “Who?!”


    Se him to harm his woman, and even tried to vite her??


    Caleb’s respectful voice came from the other end of the line, “A man who is strikingly simr to you!”


    Bernard’s


    phone tightened, with his knuckles turning white and his face darkening.


    Although Caleb couldn’t see Bernard, he could sense his boiling rage through the phone.


    This was the first time someone dared to impersonate Mr. Law.


    Not only did he impersonate him, but he also did vile things to his woman.


    Such audacity to provoke Mr. Law.


    Caleb heard Bernard’s icy voice ring in his ear.


    “Address!”


    aAfter sying this, Bernard hung up the phone.


    He quickly left the hotel, got into his sports car, started it, and hit the gas. His Bugatti roared and sped


    towards an abandoned factory in the suburbs.
