Chapter 358 Jonny's Plea for Help
That day, Elsa was preparing for her evening livestream when a notification sound chimed. It was Jonny, who hadn't been in touch for a long time.
[Help me!] He shared his location, and then there was no further message.
What kind of danger was Jonny in? Elsa was startled and quickly drove towards Jonny's location while calling the police.
In half an hour, she imagined countless possibilities: kidnapping and ransom, threats from business enemies, or even being murdered by his father Dylan's other wife. She kept following Jonny's changing location until it finally stopped at a hotel.
She had considered the possibility of a prank, but since it concerned Jonny's safety, Elsa didn't dare to take it lightly and followed the location to the hotel entrance.
She arrived about ten minutes later than Jonny, and with the time waiting for the police, she was nearly 20 minutes behind.
She showed Jonny's photo to the front desk, and they confirmed that a drunk man matching his description had been helped to a room by a girl.
Jonny got drunk and came to a hotel room with a girl, but sent her his location?
They were all adults. Would it be inappropriate to burst in with the police?
Elsa was momentarily indecisive after hearing this.
"Wait a moment," she told everyone, and sent Jonny a voice message.
It was quickly hung up.
She sent another, and an arrogant female voice answered, "Elsa, are you annoying or what?"
It was Jasmine!
Knowing it was her, Elsa felt slightly relieved. At least Jonny's life wasn't in immediate danger. The front desk said Jonny was drunk, probably tricked here by Jasmine.
"Where's Jonny? Let him answer the phone," Elsa said.
"Jonny? He's in my bed. Why are you always bothering him? Is it because Luke doesn't want you, and now you're trying to seduce Jonny? Have some shame!" Jasmine scolded and hung up before Elsa could respond.
Jasmine was already engaged to Terry, yet she tricked Jonny into a hotel room while he was drunk. Although this was a matter for the Taylor family, Elsa felt she should inform Luke.
As she led the group upstairs, she sent Luke the location and briefly explained the situation.
Since it involved the Taylor and Jones families, the police were reluctant to intervene. But seeing Elsa, a popular figure, standing at the door with her phone, they didn't dare to be too dismissive.
"Ms. Taylor, please open the door. If you don't, we will come in!"
Afraid of encountering Jasmine in a compromising state, they didn't use the hotel's spare key and instead tried to persuade her from outside.
There was no response from inside.
"Ms. Taylor, forcing Mr. Jones like this is illegal."
"Ms. Taylor, open the door."
"Jasmine, don't embarrass Luke! Jonny doesn't like you. Getting him drunk won't change that! If you have the ability, make Jonny fall in love with you. Using such means will only make you a laughingstock!" Seeing that no one else could get a response, Elsa stepped forward and coldly spoke through the door.
"You have the nerve to talk! Didn't you do the same to Luke back then?" Only Elsa could make Jasmine hysterical.
"I didn't have an engagement at the time! You have an engagement with the Clark family, and doing this only puts Jonny in a bad position!" Elsa frowned but didn't back down.
"Engagement? It was you who pushed Luke to force me into it!" Jasmine became even more frantic.
What? What did Jasmine's engagement have to do with her? Elsa was speechless. "What does your engagement have to do with me?"
"Shut up! You just can't stand to see me happy!" The door opened a crack, and a teapot was hurled at Elsa's forehead.
Elsa couldn't dodge in time. A tall figure quickly stepped in, shielding her and turning around.
It was Luke!
The teapot hit Luke's shoulder and fell to the carpet with a dull thud.
The blow was heavy, and Luke winced in pain, thinking how fortunate it was that Elsa wasn't hit. Elsa, seeing his pained expression, felt a pang in her heart.
"I'm fine," he reassured her softly before she could speak.
Elsa lowered her long lashes, hiding the worry in her eyes.
Seeing someone from the Taylor family arrive, the police relaxed. "Mr. Taylor."
"Open the door," Luke ordered coldly.
