FreeNovelA group of bodyguards dressed in black barged into their apartment as Lila screamed. Madelyn heard the commotion from her room and immediately locked the door.
Then, she pushed the wardrobe and table to barricade the door, intending to stop those people from entering.
She hurriedly grabbed her phone and called the police.
The bodyguards warmed her from outside, "Ms. Jent, things won't end well if you keep resisting." "We'll have to break in if you don't come out now." Zach's men would do just anything. Her room door was not particularly secure or reinforced, and if they really were to force their way in, Madelyn would not be able to hold them back. She had no idea how Zach's men had managed to find her here.
The door was pounded on repeatedly with loud thuds as Madelyn pressed her back against the table.
After about twenty minutes, the noise outside subsided.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLila knocked on the door and said, "Madelyn, the police are here. They need us to go to the police station to make a statement.” Madelyn only regained her composure upon hearing Lila's voice.
She moved the wardrobe and table away and walked out of the room. Then, she saw several police officers questioning the bodyguards who had barged in.
After a while, they were all taken to the police station.
In the interrogation room, Madelyn kept quiet, not knowing how to explain the situation to the police. On the other hand, Lila could not stop recounting the violent act the group of people committed in their apartment.
Madelyn knew that she was scared. She did not want to go back, but she did not know what else she could do either. She had left for so many years, so she could not figure out how Zach had managed to find her again or what he wanted from her.
The fact that his bodyguards showed up at the apartment told her that Zach had been tracking her long before this...
The interrogation finally ended an hour later.
It was nine o'clock when Zach's meeting ended.
When he was about to return to the hotel, he received a call from the police station.
Kevin received the orders to turn the car around and drive to the hospital. He was a little surprised but did not ask any questions.
He figured that other than Madelyn, no one else could give them so much trouble in such a short time.
They had initially planned to go to the airport and pick someone up.
Although the interrogation had ended, the police did not let them leave immediately.
Madelyn and Lila stayed in the detention room. "I'm sorry for dragging you into this.” Madelyn apologized to Lila.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Madelyn, what exactly happened? Why did those people come after you? Also, who are those people who took you away on the cruise last time?" Madelyn kept quiet because she did not want to relive those moments. Other than some rare happy times, most of her memories with him had been painful.
The only reason she had run away for so many years was to forget him.
However, Madelyn realized that no matter how many years had passed, those memories were already etched in her mind, and they could not be forgotten so easily despite how hard she tried.
After about ten minutes, Zach arrived.
Madelyn was released on bail. Lila looked at the man before her. She was so shocked that she could not even speak. That was because the man in front of her was the same man who had recently made headlines in the French newspaper. "Shit!" she cursed inwardly.
She realized that the man looked even better than he was in the newspaper upon taking a closer look at him. Zach exuded a captivating aura of masculinity.
"I'm very sorry for the misunderstanding,” Zach said with a charming smile that could take anyone's breath away.
Lila could not contain her admiration for Zach and spoke to him for nearly three minutes straight, looking extremely excited. She even blamed Madelyn for not telling her that the man she had been dreaming about was actually her "brother." Madelyn was on the brink of going insane because Lila had no idea what kind of demon was standing in front of her.
