Chapter 224 Call the Police!
Peyton did not speak to Nolan face to face, but she inexplicably felt the atmosphere was eerily terrifying.
Nolan said in a very displeased tone, “Is this what you wanted to say?”
Peyton didn’t want to admit it, but it was too late. She composed herself and said, “Well, after all, we had a connection. I think I should personally wish you well today.”
Nolan gritted his teeth and said, “Thank you for your blessings.”
After finishing speaking, Nolan hung up the phone. Peyton listened to the sound of the disconnected line on the phone and sighed helplessly.
The person who is getting engaged is Nolan. Peyton doesn’t understand why Nolan is acting as if she is forcing him to get engaged.
Peyton knew she definitely couldn’t inform Nolan. If Nolan’s
engagement party was ruined, not only would Helena blame her, but Colette would also endlessly nag at her.
Just at that moment, Kevin happened to call Peyton. Peyton felt as if she had seen the dawn.
“Kevin.”
“Good morning, Peyton.”
“Can you come and pick me up?” Peyton cautiously made the request.
“Of course I can. I have already come over. I will be at the entrance of your residential area in one minute.”
“I came down immediately.”
Peyton observed the surveillance first. After confirming that there was no danger outside, she then carried her belongings and quickly entered the elevator.
There were people all the way to the entrance of the community when the elevator arrived. Peyton thought Dwayne wouldn’t be so bold as to do something in such a short few minutes.
Watching the elevator slowly descend, Peyton felt extremely nervous.
8, 7, 6…
Peyton tightly held onto her phone. She received a message from Kevin. Kevin was already at the door.
And Kevin considerately sent an emoji. He told Peyton to take their time and not to rush. It was still early
Peyton was healed by the adorable expressions on the screen. She smiled slightly.
However, when she looked up, she found that the elevator did not stop on the first floor she pressed and was still descending.
Peyton instantly became uneasy. She wondered if someone had tampered with the elevator.
She immediately sent a voice message to Kevin, “Kevin, I am in the elevator. The elevator malfunctioned. I suspect someone tampered with it.”
After Peyton finished speaking, the elevator opened.
When Peyton saw the person standing at the door, her face changed dramatically. She desperately wanted to close the elevator door.
Kevin heard the voice message sent by Peyton. In the confined space, Peyton’s voice trembled. Clearly, she was in extreme fear.
Kevin turned off the engine and got out of the car. He received another voice message.
It was a man’s voice.
“Ms. Schmitt, I told you that you couldn’t escape.”
Immediately following was Peyton’s cry for help: “Help! Call the police quickly!”
When Kevin called Peyton again in the past, the phone was already unreachable.
“Peyton!”
When Kevin rushed to the scene, there was no one in the elevator.
Kevin squatted down and discovered fragments of a cellphone.
It was obvious that the tempered glass of Peyton’s phone had shattered.
Peyton had been taken away from the underground garage by someone!
“Damn it!” Kevin said.
After hanging up Peyton’s call, Nolan angrily threw his phone aside. He felt that Peyton was becoming more and more skilled at making him angry.
“Mr. Dalton, it’s about time. The helicopter has been positioned. We are going to the sea island,” Lucian urged.
Nolan looked at the clear blue sky and took a deep breath. Others didn’t know what he was thinking.
Only he knew that he had been restless for several days. Especially, he felt strongly uneasy after waking up this morning. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Nolan always felt that something was going to happen.
But thinking about how he had just heard Peyton’s perfectly fine voice, he felt like he was worrying unnecessarily.
“Let’s go,” Nolan lifted his leg and got on the helicopter.
