    Chapter 604 Where is Roxanne?


    Chapter 604 Where is Roxanne?


    They arrived. Dawn swiped the card to get into her hotel room.


    She stepped in first. She should have said goodbye, but something held her back.


    Her hand tightened on the door. She hesitated for a moment before speaking.

    “Mason has taken all the evidence to the authorities,” she said. “It shouldn’t be long before Christian is taken into custody. But his men are armed. Be careful.”


    “Okay.”


    “If anything happens, call me,” she added. “I still have a few people we can use here.”


    “Got it.”


    They immediately fell silent.


    Dawn opened her mouth again, but the words didn’t manage toe out.


    Under the man’s deep, burning gaze, her heart began to race. An unspoken tension hung between them, heavy and restless.


    After a few seconds, she looked away first. “There’s nothing else. You should go.”


    “Dawn.”


    He suddenly called out her name.


    She looked up. His sharp, handsome features were lit by the hallway light, clear and calm.


    He seemed like he wanted to say something. In the end, he simply said, “Forget it. Let’s talk after this is over.”


    She watched him walk away, his tall figure fading down the corridor.


    Dawn stood there for a long time before returning to her room.


    She couldn’t sleep. She didn’t feel like doing anything.


    It was almost midnight. There wasn’t a single sound. The silence only made her feel more uneasy.


    After thinking it over, she decided to call Mason.


    As soon as she pulled out her phone, the screen lit


    up


    with his name..


    She answered at once.


    “How did it go?”


    “Ms. Porter, it’s done,” Mason said.


    He was walking fast; she could hear his footsteps. “We have enough evidence to charge Christian. They’re arranging the arrest now.”

    “Great!”


    Dawn jumped to her feet, her eyes lighting up.


    “Be careful!”


    After hanging up, she immediately told Ethan the news.


    “I’ll take people to keep an eye on him,” he said. “Just in case he tries to run.”


    “Okay,” Dawn paused, then finally said what had been weighing on her. “Can you help me find Roxanne? She could be in trouble.”


    Roxanne had helped her; if something happened to her because of that…


    “Alright,” Ethan agreed, his deep voice steady and reassuring. “Don’t worry. She’ll be fine.”


    Roxanne was still useful to Christian; he probably wouldn’t kill her. But what Dawn had seen in that video was already enough to break any woman.


    Dawn couldn’t stay in the hotel at ease. As soon as Mason arrived, she went out with him.


    There were police at the Hoffman Vi now. Their main task at the moment was to find Roxanne.


    “Can we track her phone?” Dawn muttered, then shook her head. “No, that won’t work.”


    There was no way the phone was still with her.


    She pressed hard on her aching temples. Then a thought struck her. <i>The </i><i>office</i><i>. </i>


    Christian had filmed the video in his office. Roxanne was already in terrible shape. There was no reason for him to risk moving her again.


    Dawn looked up sharply. “Go to Christian’s office!”


    The night grew darker.


    The city was drowned in noise.


    By the time Dawn reached Christian’s office building, the search team had already left. The entire building was silent. It felt cold and hollow.


    Mason came back after speaking with someone, his expression serious.


    “Ms. Porter, they didn’t find anyone.”


    “They didn’t?”


    That was impossible.


    Dawn took a slow breath and said firmly, “Mason, go check the surveince room. Look at the footage from around four or five this afternoon. I want to see how Christian left and where his bodyguards went.”


    “Yes.”

    Mason left the guards behind and went to the surveince room.


    Dawn carefully examined the office. It looked ordinary. Everything was visible at a nce.


    Where is Roxanne?


    She couldn’t have been carried out without anyone seeing.


    The bad feeling in her chest grew stronger. She turned to the others. “Search again–Check everything. See if we missed something.”


    When the lights came on, the entire building was cleared out.


    They searched everything but found nothing.

    Dawn walked slowly along the inner wall. Her hand brushed against a raised gray brick. Her expression changed. She pressed it


    hard.


    “There’s a hidden room here!”


    The door was built into the wall, with the same color and material. It was easy to overlook.


    Dawn’s eyes darkened as she stepped inside.


    The room was quite small. There was space only for a bed and a wardrobe.


    She opened the wardrobe.


    No one.


    Her hands froze. She spun around and ran toward the bathroom.


    When the guards rushed in, Dawn stood motionless at the doorway, as if she had been frozen in ce.


    “Ms. Porter, you…?”
