141 Chapter 141: Beating Caleb Lockwood Without Giving Him a Chance to Fight Back
Serena Jennings answered the phone with some confusion and wariness. 1
Caleb Lockwood’s voice came through the phone:
“Mr. Miller, I’m on Anqian Road…”
The abrupt mention of “Mr. Miller” left Serena dumbfounded.
But soon, Serena realized that Caleb had dialed the wrong number.
The call wasn’t meant for her; it was meant for Mr. Miller.
Though Serena listened intently to what Caleb said next, she still couldn’t hear clearly.
The voiceing through was intermittent, and Serena felt that something was off with Caleb; his voice seemed to be trembling.
The white BMW 3 Series restarted under the night sky, speeding off.
Anqian Road.
There were few people on this road at this time.
Serena initially thought Caleb would be hard to find because she didn’t catch his specific location clearly.
However, she underestimated the powerful presence of the royal blue Bentley.
As soon as she drove onto Anqian Road, she spotted the conspicuous Bentley.
The Bentley was parked on the roadside with its hazard lights shing.
After parking her car, Serena walked over to the royal blue Bentley and knocked on the driver’s side window.
“Caleb?”
No one responded, so Serena directly opened the car door.
A strong smell of alcohol hit her in the face.
Serena coughed twice from the irritation.
Caleb was sitting inside, leaned against the seat back, with his eyes closed.
Whether he neglected to use the seat belt or had already undone it, Caleb was not wearing one.
His suit was rumpled, the tie had been yanked off, and even a few buttons on his shirt were missing, exposing elegantly shaped corbones and a trembling Adam’s apple.
Caleb appeared not to be asleep, even though his eyes were closed.
Serena noticed Caleb’s face was extremely red, unusually so, and he was sweating profusely, looking as if he were soaked.

He frowned, his lips slightly parted as he breathed with difficulty.
In any case, Caleb’s current state seemed abnormal, leaving Serena momentarily unsure of what to do.
“Caleb, can you recognize me? It’s Serena…”
“You dialed the wrong number and reached me. I called Mr. Miller afterward, but he didn’t answer…”
Serena softly exined the reason she was there when suddenly, her cor was fiercely grabbed by Caleb.
She didn’t have time to react; Caleb had already pulled her over.
A warmth spread over her lips as Caleb kissed her.
The kiss was intense from the start; Serena felt as if Caleb wanted not to kiss her but to devour her.
Serena wasn’t resisting, yet Caleb’s kiss was still rough.
Before Serena could push Caleb away, he had already shoved her aside.
Once pushed away, Serena btedly noticed Caleb’s wounded hand.
Caleb’s palm was covered in blood, staining her clothes.
“Caleb, what’s going on with you?”
Serena saw Caleb stagger out of the car, his gaze like that of a starved beast finally finding its prey.
In Serena’s impression, Caleb had never looked at her with such eyes.
Caleb had strong desires, but even when they hadn’t divorced, he’d never craved her so fiercely.
Serena’s skin prickled with goosebumps.
She felt scared.
Caleb approaching her now was clearly unusual and not fully conscious.
Yet she couldn’t just leave Caleb like this.
Serena didn’t have much time to hesitate before Caleb grabbed her head again and forcefully kissed her.
Serena struggled, but the more she struggled, the rougher Caleb became.
The metallic taste spread in her mouth, and Serena realized Caleb had bitten her lip.
“Caleb, have you gone mad?”
Serena had barely pushed Caleb away when he grabbed her shoulder forcefully.
The pain in her shoulder distorted Serena’s expression.
Then Caleb voluntarily released her.

Serena saw Caleb squeeze his injured bleeding hand tightly, allowing the blood to drip more.
Suddenly, she realized Caleb seemed to be relying on pain to stay conscious.
Could Caleb have been drugged?
Serena had experienced aphrodisiac drugs before, and the feeling was worse than death.
At that time, she didn’t have the strength or presence of mind to resist.
Fortunately, the oue had been without danger.
Serena quietly watched Caleb, watching the clearly not sober yet unwilling to yield Caleb.
Had Caleb changed?
Or not changed?
Serena shook her head.
Now wasn’t the time to think about this.
She needed to help Caleb.
But how to help?
“Caleb, hang in there, I’ll take you to the hospital right away…”
Serena carefully approached Caleb; Caleb suddenly lunged forward, copsing onto her.
She was pinned to the ground by Caleb.
“Cannot… go to the hospital…”
Caleby on Serena, his weak voice like the sound of dead leaves crunching in her ear.
“You need to get up…”
Serena couldn’t budge Caleb.
Caleb’s mind alternated between rity and confusion, his body feverishly hot.
His hands began to wander uncontrobly over Serena’s body as they touched her skin.
Serena’s skin was smooth, fair, cool to the touch,fortable, and familiar.
Caleb felt like he was an erupting volcano.
The more he suppressed it, the more desperately he wanted to release the burning desire inside.
He tightened his hand, pierced by shattered ss.
The pain brought a moment of rity.
At this moment, someone pulled him up and punched him in the face.

Serena hurriedly got up and widened her eyes.
In front of her was Ian ckwood, who had appeared unknown to her.
Ian was hitting Caleb, leaving Caleb powerless to fight back.
Anqian Road was a routen had to take to get home.
But it wasn’t a necessary route for Caleb or Serena.
Today, Ian had been busy with business untilte, not expecting to encounter familiar faces on this road.
What first caught his attention was the royal blue Bentley.
The license te with four sevens was too conspicuous.
Out of curiosity, he parked his car nearby and approached Caleb’s car on foot to investigate.
As a result, the first person he saw was Serena.
Serena was
