Chapter 699 She Regretted It!
"Where are you going?"
Seeing that Beau was about to go out, Eliza frowned and went forward to ask.
Thinking of Chester's attitude toward Eliza, Beau paused and said, "I have some work to do."
"Are you meeting a client?"
"Yes."
Beau's expression was a little unnatural. The main reason was because Eliza's gaze was slightly sharp.
After a long silence, Eliza walked over and hugged him.
"Go ahead. I'm going out to work today."
Beau was surprised. "To shoot a movie?"
Eliza pointed at the wound on her face and said helplessly, "I can't shoot for the time being, but there is an interview for a magazine. It just so happens that their studio is in Movie City."
"Is there someone accompanying you?"
At this moment, Mr. Valentine didn't want to see Chester anymore. It was more important to accompany his wife.
Eliza felt his concern for her and chuckled. "Yes, don't worry. Graciana and Xander will be with me."
Beau frowned. "Bring Owen along."
In case of an accident, he could help her.
Eliza was helpless. "There are also several bodyguards. I'm just going to be interviewed. There's no need to do anything."
So she wouldn't get hurt.
Beau insisted, "Bring him along. Anyway, he has nothing to do in the hotel recently."
"All right."
Beau leaned over to kiss her and said, "Send me a message after work. I'll pick you up."
"Don't be worried. Nothing will happen to me."
Beau did not tell her about Layman. He did not tell her how he dealt with Sonya either. There was no need to confess at this time.
"Take Eden with you. This guy is clever and can help you deal with other things."
"Why don't I take your whole team with me?"
"Well, Noah will follow you too."
Eliza, "..."
Feeling helpless and sweet in her heart, Eliza looked at him. "Aren't you going to talk about work? How can you do it without an assistant?"
Beau, "..."
Eliza was afraid that if she continued to delay, no one would be able to get out of the door, so she went over and kissed him.
"Well, you really don't have to worry about me."
Beau snorted and said, "You're my wife. It's natural for me to worry about you."
"Okay, okay, okay. Then come back early after your talk. Don't drink outside. I'll cook for you tonight."
Having stayed in the hotel for the past few days, Eliza had nothing else to do. Other than reading the script or studying new dishes, she had improved her cooking skills.
Every time Eliza cooked, Beau ate happily.
Beau readily agreed and even made a request. "I want to eat fish today."
"Okay, I'll make it for you!"
Beau was satisfied and finally went out with Noah.
When the car was driven away from the hotel, Noah asked in a low voice, "Mr. Valentine, is there any client you have to talk to in person in Movie City?"
Usually, he and Eden would be the ones to make a move. There was no need for Beau to make a move himself.
Beau glanced at him and said, "I'm not going to talk about cooperation."
"Then..."
"Chester wants to see me. Don't tell Eliza about this for the time being."
Noah blinked. He hadn't been in the country recently, so he didn't know that the relationship between Chester and Eliza had worsened. He was a little confused after hearing that.
Why didn't he tell his wife when he went to see his brother? It was not like he was meeting a lover.
Beau didn't have the habit of explaining to his subordinates. He asked in a low voice, "How's the acquisition case?"
Noah sat upright and soon began to talk about work with Beau.
When he arrived at the hotel address sent by Chester, Beau frowned slightly.
"Is... is Mr. Hughes staying here?"
The name of the hotel was "Fragrant Pine". It looked quite elegant, but the decoration was very interesting. The pattern on the signboard was obviously not proper.
He didn't expect that Mr. Hughes would have such a hobby.
There was a trace of disgust in Beau's eyes. He didn't bring anyone with him today except for the driver and Noah. The driver was guarding outside, but Beau felt that something was wrong.
"Go and ask the hotel manager about the situation. I'll go up and have a look first. Come and find me in ten minutes."
Hearing the seriousness in Beau's tone, Noah also became serious. "Yes."
After that, he split up with Beau.
Beau trusted Noah's ability to work. In addition, it was Chester who asked to meet, so he was not really worried. In addition to the necessary vigilance, he did not realize that there was a conspiracy in front of him.
Beau entered the elevator and waited for the elevator to get up. The security guard in the lobby of the hotel took out a walkie-talkie and said to the other side, "The target went up."
The elevator soon reached the designated floor. Just as Beau was about to step out, his phone rang.
"Chester" sent another text message, "Come to room 1603."
Beau frowned. They had previously agreed to meet in room 1803. Why did he suddenly switch to another room?
Beau realized that something was wrong. He took out his mobile phone and was about to call Chester, but he received another recording. It was Sonya who said how she bribed the riding coach, and the recording was cut off when it reached the most vital part.
The elevator door closed again. Beau hesitated for a while before choosing to go downstairs.
Although Chester had not done anything harmful to them other than saying bad things about Eliza, Beau was still a little wary.
After sending a text message to Noah on the right floor, he stepped out of the elevator and headed for room 1603.
This hotel was really not a high-end hotel. The lights in the corridor were dark yellow, and the painting on the carpet was full of twisted human bodies, which looked ambiguous.
Beau subconsciously searched for the surveillance camera to make sure that he was being watched.
His finger tapped lightly on the watch face, and he suddenly heard a cry of surprise coming from room 1603.
Beau frowned and couldn't help but knock on the door, but no one came to open it.
Everything was very strange. In the past, Chester had never asked him to meet in such a place. Beau felt that he had been fooled and was about to leave when the door in front of him suddenly opened.
Beau turned around and was about to ask Chester what was going on when he was suddenly hit by a stick.
Before he passed out, Beau clearly saw a ferocious fat face.
It seemed to be... Layman.
Beau's eyelids drooped and his consciousness sank into darkness.
Layman supported Beau's body and turned to call for help. "Carry him to the bed."
His man immediately stepped forward and helped Beau get on the bed. Next to Beau lay Sonya, who had taken off her clothes. Her hands and feet were tied by ropes, and her mouth was stuck with tape.
At this moment, she kept moving and begging Layman for mercy.
Seeing that she wanted to run away, Layman quickly slapped her.
"B*tch, behave yourself!"
Sonya was slapped back to the bed. Her whole body was trembling and tears flowed silently.
She regretted it. She really regretted it!
Even if she wanted to take revenge on Beau, she did not want to sacrifice her own body. Layman was not someone she could control at all.
Seeing that Sonya had calmed down, Layman calmed down a little. He glared at Beau, who was in a coma, with a gloomy look in his eyes. He really wanted to stab him and kill him directly.
