Chapter 542 Caught


    J was left breathless from the deep kiss. She pinched Ethan''s cheek and smiled shyly. "I''m not


    a child anymore. I can handle this. I''ll get going now, okay?"


    Glorie Street was an old and remote block. There was only one restaurant here—the steakhouse


    L mentioned.


    It wasn''t a particrly clean restaurant. There were all sorts of bugs and flies all over the ce.


    In the restaurant sat a group of tough-looking men with tattoos covering their arms. With toothpicks


    in their mouths, they looked just like a bunch of hooligans.


    As soon as J stepped foot inside the steakhouse, they all turned to look at her with eager eyes.


    L stood up and waved at her from the table near the door. "J, over here!"


    J nodded in greeting.


    They hadn''t seen each other for over a month. L had lost a lot of weight. Her makeup was not as


    pristine as before, and her eyes were full of undisguised fatigue.


    "I know several good cafes in the area. How about we talk there?" J suggested, ncing at the


    men from the corner of her eye.


    "This ce is owned by a friend of Jeff''s. I don''t have that much money now, so I could only afford


    the food here," L exined with a smile.


    "Oh, Jeff''s my brother."


    Left with no choice, J sat down at the table.


    The restaurant was empty other than the group of men. There were barely any people outside, too.


    This was clearly a ce for doing illegal stuff.


    The staff soon brought them two tes of steak. L pushed one of them in front of J and said,


    "Try it. I like their food."


    As she spoke, she nced meaningfully at the man who had served the steak just now.

    She knew that Jeff and his friends were hiding in the kitchen.


    With Ethan guarding outside, J wasn''t afraid at all. She sliced a piece of her steak and put it in


    her mouth.


    Suddenly, Jeff burst out of the kitchen, holding a stick and some ropes, followed by a group of


    thugs.


    However, before they could even get close to J, a group of men in ck swarmed inside the


    restaurant.


    In a matter of seconds, the men in ck quickly subdued Jeff and his friends.


    L was shocked. She stood up from the table and shouted, "Who the hell are you? I''m calling 911!"


    J continued to eat her steak calmly. The steak here was pretty good; she had to give L that.


    Ethan, who was wearing a dark brown windbreaker today, strode in. He sat next to J, took out a


    handkerchief, and handed it to her. "Honey, it''s time to go."


    Taking the handkerchief, J folded it neatly and wiped her lips. She nced indifferently at the


    panic-stricken L and said, "Okay. Let''s go, honey."

    L and the others were all captured for interrogation.


    "Please let me go, Brandon! I was just trying to apologize to J!" Inside the cold interrogation


    room, L was scared out of her wits and kept defending herself hysterically.


    Jeff was also tied to a electric chair. He was so scared that he wet his pants. He tried to exin


    stiffly, "I... My friends and I were just curious to see what J White looked like. We never


    intended to hurt her!"


    "So what were the ropes and sticks for?" Ethan''s men didn''t want to waste time listening to his


    measly excuses and flipped a switch. The chair sent bolts of electricity through Jeff''s body.


    Very quickly, the interrogation room was filled with screams.


    Neither Jeff nor L had been tortured before. They confessed everything after only a short while.


    In the room behind the steakhouse, Ethan''s men found cameras and all kinds of aphrodisiac drugs.


    Obviously, they were meant for J.
