Chapter 293 She Is No Saint
Sebastian didn’t even know if Derrick had heard or not. Derrick just drank one ss of red wine after another. What shed through his mind were the marks on Ste’s neck.
Thinking of the intel he had gotten earlier, Derrick’s eyes turned even colder, like they were covered in frost.
Meanwhile, after knocking the maid out, Ste took her phone <b>and </b>put on her clothes, then quietly made her study.
<b>way </b>to the
She had already observed theyout of the vi earlier when she arrived and had seen Derrick go into the study before.
Her room was right next to Derrick’s<b>, </b>so she kept her footsteps <b>as </b>light as possible.
Once inside the study, she searched all over for the document she saw on the <b>ne</b>. In the end, she found it in a drawer.
Her and Derrick’s rooms were on the third floor.
She peeked out the window cautiously. The whole ce was crawling with bodyguards. Not just guards, there were dogs too.
Dogs. Great
Ste thought for a second, then used the phone to call Abraham.
The phone only <b>rang </b>twice before someone picked up. Abraham’s cold voice came through. “Hello.”
“Abraham, it’s me.” Ste whispered into the phone, not even daring to make the slightest sound.
Derrick’s men were all highly trained and extremely alert. Even the smallest noise could raise an rm.
There was a short pause on the other end, then Abraham’s slightly anxious voice came through. “Star? W
Something <b>suddenly </b>clicked in Ste’s <b>head</b><b>, </b>and her eyes lit up.
“Pagena. Abraham, I’ll send you my location right now, but don’te into the vi. I’m getting out.”
“You can get out? There’s no one on watch?”
There is. But don’t worry, I can do it.”
Good thing Marie had given her a very useful crash course back when she helped her escape.
Abraham said, “Don’t take the risk. Send me the address. I’lle get you right now,”
“You’re already in Pagena?”
Where are <b>you</b>?”
Of course <b>Abraham </b>was already here. <b>Even </b>after Derrick shut down all <bmunications</b><b>, </b>he still tracked him down.
Abraham gave <b>a </b><b>sofi </b>“<b>yeah</b>.”
At that moment, he had just arrived at South Valley Airport.
Even though Derrick had cut off all tracking, Abraham had still figured out his general location.
Ste ended the call and immediately used the maid’s phone to add Abraham on WhatsApp, then sent him her location.
<b>After </b>putting the phone away, she started to <b>move</b>.
She nced <b>carefully </b><b>out </b>the window again. There were quite a few people outside. She had no idea how many people
Back on Derrick’s side, <b>Sebastian </b>was still rambling on, mostly about how dangerous <b>Abraham </b>was and how he didn’t want to live on the run anymore<b>. </b>
Basically, he was just trying to convince Derrick not to mess with Abraham.
Right in the middle of his rant, sudden barking broke out in the <b>backyard</b>. It was loud and frantic.
Woof! Woof Woo!!
Derrick and Sebastian were both startled.
“It’s the middle of the night. Why are the dogs barking like that?” Sebastian asked.
Derrick’s gaze darkened. He stood up and left the room. Sebastian followed <b>right </b>after.
The <b>backyard </b>faced the study directly. Derrick and Sebastian entered the study and walked to the window.
They saw severalrge guard dogs barking non–stop. Some bodyguards were already checking out the scene
What the hell are they barking at?” Sebastian muttered. “Did someone forget to feed them?”
Derrick narrowed his eyes slightly. Do you think they’re barking because they’re hungry?”
“Of course. They’re usually calm. If no one provoked them, then they’re probably just hungry. What else could it be?”
Derrick shot Sebastian a look.
In that instant, Derrick’s pupils contracted sharply. Without saying a word, he turned and strode toward the door.
“Where are you going now?” Sebastian called after him.
Derrick didn’t answer. He went straight <b>to </b>Ste’s room and kicked the door open with a loud bang
Sebastian was stunned. What’d the door ever do to you?
Derrick flipped on the lights. His eyes immediately swept across the bed with a sharp gaze.
The bed was empty. The covers were a mess. No sign of Ste.
The maid was knocked out on the floor.
“Ste” Derrick growled through clenched teeth. His eyes gleamed with icy rage.
How <b>dare </b>that demn girl run?
Sebastian stood frozen at the <b>sight</b>. “D“mn! Guess wolves can’t raise bunnies after all. Mr. Abraham is dangerous, And Ms. <b>Dawson </b>is no saint either.
