Chapter 275
Otis asked, "Ms. Redstone, did Mr. Getty tick you off or something?"
Gianna shot him a look, "Otis, you're running your mouth a bit too much today."
Otis quickly looked down, "Sorry, I'll get you the address right now."
Gianna nodded, "Cool."
After snagging the address, Gianna thought for a sec and decided to head straight to find Daniel.
In less than an hour, Gianna's car rolled up in front of Dawnridge Hotel.
As soon as she hopped out, she spotted James strolling out of the lobby, looking kinda pissed.
They both looked surprised to see each other.
James spoke up first, "Ms. Redstone, what brings you here?"
Gianna gave a slight smile, "I'm here to find someone; what about you?"
James was there to tell Daniel that Garrett might save Jonah, but Daniel wasn't having it and had his guys toss him out.
James replied, "Just handling some business at the hotel."
Gianna nodded and didn't pry, "Alright, I'll head in first. Catch you later."
Once Gianna disappeared into the hotel, James quickly called Felix.
James said, "Mr. Clinton, I bumped into Ms. Redstone at Dawnridge Hotel entrance. She said she's here to find someone. Think she knows about that thing?"
There was a few seconds of silence on the other end before Felix said coldly, "Find out who she's meeting at the hotel!"
While James was busy trying to get the hotel management to check the surveillance, Gianna was already at Daniel's door.
She knocked, and the door swung open fast.
An older guy in his fifties answered, his face changing when he saw her, "You..."
Gianna's face was calm, "I'm Gianna. I'm here to talk to Mr. Getty. Let him know."
The old guy quickly snapped back and said coldly, "I don't know who this Mr. Getty you're talking about is!"
Gianna's expression didn't change, and she said slowly, "I have proof that Mr. Getty sent someone to kidnap me this morning. If you don't know who Mr. Getty is, I'll just hand this evidence over to the cops."
The old guy's face went pale, and after a few seconds, he gritted his teeth and said, "Wait here."
Soon, the old guy came back, still looking pissed.
He said, "Mr. Getty will see you."
Gianna walked into the presidential suite, cool as a cucumber. By the window in the living room, a man in a gray suit with slightly graying hair was sitting in a wheelchair, his back to her.
Standing about three feet behind him, Gianna said coldly, "Mr. Getty, you got the guts to send someone to kidnap me but not to face me?"
Daniel turned his wheelchair around, a fake smile plastered on his face.
Daniel said, "Ms. Redstone, I have no idea what you're talking about. Why are you here?"
The moment she saw his face, Gianna noticed he looked a bit like Jonah, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, but Daniel's face showed the wear and tear of time.
Gianna chuckled and played a recording of her convo with the guys who had been tailing her that morning.
After listening, Daniel's smile didn't budge, "Ms. Redstone, I don't know you. Why would I kidnap you? Someone's setting me up. You should dig deeper."
Gianna sneered, "If you don't know me, why call me Ms. Redstone? Mr. Getty, I don't have much patience. This isn't Thundertop, and I'm not someone to mess with."
Daniel stared at her for a few seconds, his voice turning icy, "You're just a small-time clothing company owner. It's your honor that Jonah took a liking to you. If you're smart, you should sleep with Jonah. If you can pop out a kid for the Getty family, I'll give you a hundred companies the size of yours!"
Gianna lowered her gaze, finally getting what Daniel was after.
He probably knew Jonah didn't have much time left, so he wanted a woman to get pregnant before Jonah kicked the bucket, to give birth to an heir for the Getty family.
She slowly looked at Daniel and raised an eyebrow, "So, according to Mr. Getty, I should be grateful you kidnapped me?"
Daniel sneered, "Glad you get it."
Gianna questioned, "You do know I'm Felix's woman, right?"
Daniel's hand on the wheelchair armrest tightened involuntarily, then he said with disdain, "The Clinton Group might be top dog in Dawnridge, but in Thundertop, it is nothing. You think I'd be scared of him?"
Gianna nodded, smiling as she walked closer to Daniel, "So, Mr. Getty, you think no matter what you do to me, Felix can't hurt you, right?"
Daniel replied, "Of course, since you know, then..."
Before he could finish, Gianna kicked the wheelchair over.
Daniel hit the ground hard, his eyes filled with disbelief and rage. He pointed at Gianna and shouted, "How dare you treat me like this? Do you know who I am?"
The butler, who was behind Daniel, wanted to help Daniel up but froze under Gianna's cold stare.
Gianna stepped on his hand, looking down at him with a faint smile.
Gianna sneered, "Why wouldn't I dare? You had the guts to kidnap and drug me. What I'm doing to you isn't even close to enough."
Daniel was furious, gritting his teeth, "You're asking for it!"
"Oh?" Gianna pressed harder with her foot, and seeing Daniel's face turn pale with pain, she slowly moved her foot away.
Gianna said, "Considering you're Jonah's dad, I'll let you off this time. But if you try anything again, you'll regret it!"
Just as Gianna turned to leave, the door burst open, and Felix appeared at the entrance, looking cold as ice.
Seeing the scene in the room, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he quickly walked to Gianna's side.
Felix asked, concerned, "You alright?"
On the way here, he had already learned about Daniel's attempt to kidnap Gianna. He didn't expect her to find the hotel by herself.
Felix, worried she might be hurt, rushed over from the Clinton Group. Seeing she was fine, he finally relaxed.
Gianna shook her head, "I'm fine."
Lying on the ground, Daniel saw that the two of them were completely ignoring him and was instantly furious.
Daniel said angrily, "Mr. Clinton, your woman dared to kick me off my wheelchair. I think the cooperation between the Getty Group and the Clinton Group can end here!"
Felix replied, "Mr. Getty, that's exactly what I was thinking. But first, we need to settle the matter of you kidnapping Gianna." Felix let go of Gianna and walked up to Daniel, his gaze icy.
Daniel sneered, "I'd like to see what you can do to me. Don't forget, Jonah saved..."
Before he could finish, Felix grabbed his jaw and forcefully twisted it.
"Ah!" With a scream, Daniel's jaw was dislocated.
Because of the pain, his face turned red, but Daniel couldn't say a word. He could only glare at Felix with all his might.
As the head of the Getty family, he was always fawned over wherever he went. He had never suffered such humiliation!
Thinking of this, Daniel's heart filled with rage.
He would never let Gianna and Felix off!
