Chapter 360
After receiving such good news, Aubree was in quite a good mood. She even had a little wine during dinner.
When she returned to her room and swiped the keycard to open the door, her sixth sense immediately kicked in.
A dark figure flashed past. She was pulled into the room with a hand covering her mouth, pinned against the
door.
She couldn't see who it was, but judging from the build, it was a man. He was strong. Her arms were twisted
behind her back, and her legs were pressed against the door. She couldn't move.
She panicked. ‘A robber? Or someone here to kill me?‘
Countless thoughts flashed through Aubree’s mind. She tried to stay calm. “Who are you? What do you want? If
it’s money, there's a card in my bag. It should have 700 thousand dollars on it. You can take it, I'll give you the
password too.”

Aubree quickly added, “All guests in this hotel are registered. If something happens to me, they'll find out
quickly.”
She didn’t know what this person wanted, but it was clear he was very experienced. From the moment she
opened the door to being completely restrained, it all happened in one smooth motion. The only thing she could
do now was negotiate.
The man deliberately lowered his voice and let out a mocking laugh.
Aubree froze. After hearing that voice, her panic instantly turned into fury. She struggled hard and managed to
turn around. Just as she suspected, the man seemed afraid of hurting her and let go easily.
Fueled by anger, she instinctively kicked. “Bowen! You bastard! How could you scarelike that? Do you think
it’s funny?”
Bowen raised his brows and quickly caught her ankle. With a smooth tug, he pulled her back into his arms. “You
little heartless thing, where are you trying to kick?”
Aubree pursed her lips and shot him a death glare.
With a flick, the lights con.
Bowen had a rare layer of stubble on his chin and red veins in his eyes. It was clear he hadn't rested in a long
time.
Aubree’s heart softened Based on the the gave her, he must've just landed in Rithol City and found out she
wasn't there. He'd rushed straight to Nadio.
“Are you mad at me? Don’t want to see me?” Bowen hugged her tightly and buried his head in her neck. “But
I've been in Sudlichen Strand for so long without seeing you... | missed you.”
“You still shouldn't have agreed to help Birgitte...” Aubree’s anger had already faded.
Feeling the softness of the woman he loved in his arms, Bowen finally relaxed a little. After returning to Rithol
City, the first thing he did was go to Aubree’s place, but she'd already left. She didn’t respond to his messages.
He could only ask Vincent where she went.
Only then did it hit him. Her silence wasn’t indifference. She was just waiting to settle the score later.
Aubree cto Nato attend the InteInnovation Conference. The Turner Group, as a leading enterprise in
Rithol City, had previously co-hosted the event. But unless it was held in Rithol City, Bowen usually sent
someone else on his behalf.
This time, his wife had come. Naturally, he had to show up too.
He said, “Bree, if Birgitte made that decision, then she’s already accepted all the consequences and benefits that
cwith it. The protection you think she needs might not be what she wants.”
He continued, “To her, if something she doesn’t care about can make her enemy suffer, then | think she'd gladly
pay that price.”
Bowen knew Aubree valued friendships. It was a good thing, but not always.
