#Chapter 49 I''ll Dance with You


    Li Shan was very angry that Archibald ignored her. Howeverm seen how much he cared about his


    "girlfriend", Li Shan thought that this man was like no other rich young man, because at least he cared


    about his beloved woman.


    Two burly bodyguards in ck were standing in front of the dark red gate. They opened the door as


    soon as Archibald walked over.


    Archibald walked in in steady pace. Kieran followed him and closed the thick wooden door.


    This was one of the mostmon rooms in the hotel. The strange part was that all the curtains had


    been closed, and there. were only dim light from amp in the room.


    On the big bed, a woman was lying on her side. Her hands and feet are tied and was gagged by a cloth


    strip. Her long hair spread on the bed. She looked very depressed.


    There were already two bodyguards in this room before Archibald arrived, The tall and strong


    bodyguard pulled a chair for Archibald, so that he could sit down and looked at the woman on the bed.


    Another bodyguard grabbed the woman''s hair and pulled her head up. The woman''s face hidden


    behind her long hair was exposed. She was one of the most famous model now, Joanna.


    Joanna looked at Archibald who was sitting in the chair. She mumbled, desperately.


    Archibald waved his hand and let the bodyguard remove the gag. Joanna coughed and asked


    coquetishly, "Mr. Hawkins? The richest young man in this city? What a surprise! What make you kidnap


    me here?"


    Archibald supported himself on the sofa with his both hands. His fingers with distinct knuckles crossed


    leisurely. He looked like a really bad man right now. His wide and charming eyes were squiting and look


    at Joanna coldly.


    "I thought you love to y ''multiyer games''. You want to dance? Fine, I''ll dance with you."


    Joanna was startled, she looked at him with vignce in her eyes, "What do you mean?"


    "You''re a smart woman. I think you know exactly what I mean."


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    In the dim light, Archibald looked just as polite and gentle as he was, but his cold face made Joanna''s


    hearthbeat fasten. She felt nervous."


    "Archibald, I don''t understand why you are doing this. What would people say if they know the richest


    young man in this city kidnapped an actress?" She tried to talk to him as calmly as she could. It was so


    hard to tell what was in the man''s mind from his looks.


    "You''re worrying too much. Nobody gets to know this if I don''t want them to." His bodyguards were all


    professions, and they would never let this get out.


    Joanna''s face changed. She raised her keys and asked, "Archibald, am I in trouble because I''ve got in


    your way to something? Why did you bring me here?"


    "Seriously? You''re asking me?" He asked in a light tone. Then he said, "Let me put it this way... you


    shouldn''t have touched my woman."


    Joanna frowned and asked in confusion, "Your woman?" A momentter she finally knew what that


    meant. She raised her head and asked in fright, "You mean... Lilian?"


    Archibald raised one of his eyebrowns. He didn''t approve it, nor did he deny it.


    Joanna''s lips curled. She sneered, "Then let me put it this way... she''s a married woman. You''d better


    stay away from her, or you''ll be fooled."


    "So what? I said that she is my woman. You touched my woman, and that is something I won''t


    tolerate." He said slowly.


    "You!" Archibald''s arrogance is beyond Joanna''s imagination. She had somebody drugged a cups of


    fruity wine and send it to Lilian. She hired the man to do this because she wanted to destroy Lilian''s


    reputation. She hadn''t heard any updates from them now, and she desperately wondered how


    everything was going on there.


    She knew Archibald had found it. He said she shouldn''t have touched his woman, so Jonna wondered


    if her people had already seed, or Archibald wouldn''t have spared no efforts to bring her here.


    Thinking of that, she sneered triumphantly, "Mr. Hawkins, you got me. I''ve got nothing to exin. Do


    you still want Lilian after what has happened to herst night?"


    Archibald knew what she meant by that. He unclenched his fist and supported his head with one hand.


    His eyes looked like a shimmering ocean in the moon light, giving out powerful and irresistable


    pressure.


    "Speaking of which... I should thank you for what you have done, or Lilian wouldn''t have really be


    my woman so fast."


    His words soundedzy but meaningful, which was like a thunderbolt a Joanna''s eyes. She looked at


    Archibald with disbelief. The man was sitting in the sofa calmly. She paused for a second and her eyes


    started to lose focus.


    "What did he say just now? He said he thanked me? He saidst night, Lilian had really be his


    woman?"


    That meant her people had failed their mission, which was why she hadn''t heard from them yet.


    "You... what did you do to my people?" Joanna asked in shock. He had her kidnapped today, and that


    meant those people she sent to hurt Lilian must have been... Joanna didn''t even dare to think more


    about it.


    "They?" Archibald suddenly looked fierce. His thin lips curled a bloodthirsty smile. He said coldly and


    calmly, "They lost the part which was missed on the pce eunuchs in the old days."


    Joanna trembled when she heard the words. She gnashed her teeth because she was so nervous.


    Then she looked at Archibald as if the man was a demon. He had emascted those man! That was


    so ruthless! How would they live with that shame?


    Those people had suffered such a painful and tragic end. Joanna couldn''t help imagine what is ahead


    of her. Horror ran across her body like electric shock. Her lips were twitching.


    "Archibald, a man should never bully a woman. You should let me go," she was talking peacefully, but


    inside she felt so terrified.


    Archibald pursed his lips and smiled. Then he stood up and walked to the bed, looking down at her.


    "I never think that I am a good person, and of course I will not bully a woman, but as long as somebody


    touched my things, I will never forgive no matter it is a man or woman.


    In Joanna''s shocking and suspicious stare, he continued, "You''ve been with Sebastian for a very long


    time, and you''re still just his nameless femalepanion. I knew you want to be Mrs. Palmer, but you


    should know that sometimes it is better to spend more time and efforts on the man directly rather than


    to try to drive away those woman around him."


    He nced sideways at the bodyguard. The bodyguard read his hint and pikced up a cup of fruity wine.


    Then he walked to Joanna.


    Joanna stared at the wine in the bodyguard''s hand in horror. Finally she screamed out, "What are you


    doing?" She started to panting and couldn''t move her eyes away from the cup, because she didn''t


    know what they had put in it.


    Archibald''s tone suddenly turned evil, "I heard you love taking drugs and drugging other people, this


    cup of wine had the same drug you poisoned Lilian withst night, only that I''ve put arger amount


    in."
