Chapter 318


    Emmett stayed silent.


    Elio figured he was just wasting his time. He shrugged, “If there’s nothing else, I’ll be on my merry way,


    Mr. Melendez.”.


    He shot a nce at Emmett before leaving the room.


    After watching him leave, Emmett shot Matt a look.


    Matt immediately got the hint, “I’ll have someone tail him ASAP, Mr. Melendez. No need to worry.”


    Emmett simply nodded. With ra missing, he was on pins and needles.


    He worried that his unique status might have pissed off the wrong person. He didn’t even want to think


    about the consequences if someone kidnapped ra for business reasons and not because of some


    petty squabble.


    No, he had to find ra immediately!


    ra felt like she was in a dream. She dreamed about her dading back for money and Emmett


    finding out the truth.


    If it weren’t for the soreness in her shoulder when she turned, she might still think she was dreaming.


    ra opened her eyes and stared at the ceiling, feeling dumbfounded for a while.


    “Where am I?”


    She quickly got up and scanned the room.


    She was certain she’d never been there before.


    There was only one door in the room. ra quickly opened it and found a maid at the door, who bowed


    at her sight.


    “Hello, Ms. Calloway, may I assist you?”


    L


    ra asked, a little puzzled, “Can you tell me where I am? How did I end up here?”


    She remembered being with Elio, but what happened afterward was a total nk.


    Despite her best efforts, ra couldn’t recall anything.


    “Ms. Calloway, don’t worry. We’re not going to harm you. We’re here to take care of you. You just need


    to stay here.”


    “Stay here? Who told you to take care of me?”


    “Well… you’ll know when he gets back.”


    ra was a little confused, so she decided to go out and see where she was.

    But as she was about to leave the vi, the maid suddenly stopped her, “Ms. Calloway, he said you


    can’t go out! If you need anything, just tell me.”


    “Are you restricting my freedom?” ra frowned at the maid, “Is this ‘he’ you’re talking about Elio?”


    After all, she’d gone to meet Elio before she passed out. She could guess that much.


    As the maid was about to answer, footsteps came from the living room.


    “You’re quite sharp, ra.”


    It was Elio’s voice!


    ra’s brow furrowed as she watched him warily, “What did you bring me here for? Let me go!”


    After seeing her reaction, Elio felt a pang in his heart, “Are you wary of me, ra? Have I ever hurt


    you?”


    Looking at the hurt in Elio’s eyes and recalling his past help, ra felt guilty, and her guard dropped a


    little.


    “I’m sorry; I didn’t mean to offend you. I’m just confused about your sudden actions. I don’t understand


    why you did this.” “Do you trust me?”


    Elio looked her in the eye, making it impossible for ra to avoid his gaze.


    “Elio, can you just tell me the truth? Stop making me guess. Emmett will be furious if he finds out I


    sneaked out! I told his assistant I’d be back soon, so he’d help me cover this up. If Emmett finds out,


    he’ll be in hot water too!”,”
