Chapter 555
After Emelyn’s grumble, she continued, “I have to admit that Taya is quite brave. She stood stunned for
a while before rushing to the door of the restaurant, probably to demand an explanation face-to-face,
but she was stopped by the security.”
“This is my fault. Out of consideration that someone might eavesdrop on our conversation, I booked the
venue, and for fear that members of the organization would come to me at any time, I reminded the
guards to only allow whoever handed the invitation card over to enter. As you know, the invitation card
is the secret
code of the organization…”
The screen swiftly turned to the scene where Jessica stopped Taya from knocking on the glass. Seeing
so, Emelyn turned around and landed her palm on Jessica for another slap.
“You know that the restaurant is equipped with LOW-E glass, and
not only did you not tell Taya, you stopped her. D*mn it!”
Jessica suffered from such a vicious beating that she was
rendered at a loss of fighting back. The pain in her fingers, wrists,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtand cheeks forced her to lie on the ground, unable to speak a
word.
After giving Jessica a slap, Emelyn looked away and returned her
gaze to Griffon who was trembling all over again.
“I’m sorry. When we left the restaurant, I was the one who requested everyone to put on wireless
headphones so that it’d be more convenient for all of us to get in contact, so when Taya ran from
behind, trying to catch up and calling your name, no one noticed. Plus, the sound of the rain that night
was too loud, so we couldn’t hear her voice while we were talking to the
headquarters.”
Griffon stared at the monitor the whole time without saying a word
as he watched Taya running behind him all the way and ended up tripping over into a muddy puddle.
His heart ached so much for her that his eyes were red-rimmed.
It turned out that not only did she visit the restaurant, she tried her best to catch up with him, which he
failed to notice at that time…
Griffon tightened his grip on the tablet, shuddering uncontrollably, as his trembling fingers stroked the
desperate she-wolf on the
screen.
He stared closely at her figure, to see that not long after, she
braced herself to get back up, stag gering all the way to the hotel.
Although she was disappointed to the extreme, she had never given up on searching for him.
Yet, the hotel was the territory of the Aronland royal pack, so how
could Taya ever get in?
Griffon’ heart stopped beating when he saw the wry smile on her pale face after being driven away by
the bodyguards…
He thought she would leave just then, but he didn’t expect her to settle on a bench not far from the
hotel after wobbling down the
steps.
Drenched in the pouring rain, silly, she sat where she was, with desperate eyes, motionless, looking at
the entrance to the hotel.
She was waiting for him, waiting for him to come out, but he never came out, and for the sake of their
organization, he left through
the back door of the hotel…
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTaya knew nothing. What she saw was that he entered the hotel with other women, while she didn’t
even have the right to step into
the lobby of the hotel.
He would never know how desperate she had felt when she sat on
the bench with rain pouring, drenching her from head to toe.
All he knew was that he was a b*stard, while he didn’t give her
enough sense of security. Instead, he hurt her, over and over
again.
His heart ached so badly that he suffocated, especially when he
saw how Taya was hugging her knees and crying her lungs out
when she saw no signs of him.
He was so distressed that he couldn’t breathe. The tears that he
ding back couldn’t help but roll down his cheeks.
His Taya, after crying bitterly, completely gave up on him. Only then did she find her lost pile of items…
No! How could it be such a coincidence? How could she have found her lost items just as she had lost
all her faith in him?
