Gianna stopped putting up a fight and Eleanor started using her emotional appeal
“Ms Penrod, you know Bernard has only ever cared about me”
“Holding my friends hostage isn’t doing you any good Why put innocent people through this?
Gianna looked into Eleanor’s clear, bright eyes for a moment, then waved her hand dismissively “Fine as long as you’re here” She made a call, and after the other end hung up and gave her a slight nod, she explained to Eleanor
“Your trends don’t know they’ve been kidnapped I just stirred up some trouble for them No need to mention this when you go back
So that’s why Hailey left early in the morning and Liana didn’t make it to the villa They weren’t kidnapped, they just fell into a trap set by Gianna’s people
3 2 2 3 2 3 2
But according to Gianna, if she didn’t come the trappers would definitely harm Hailey and the others
Gianna only chose the softer approach out of consideration for Bemard. Otherwise, it would be more convenient to just kidnap them directly.
But no matter who Ganna was considering or what she was thinking, it didn’t matter anymore
What mattered was that Hailey and the others were safe and she could start looking for a way to escape.
Eleanor assessed her surroundings, taking note of the bustling club surrounded by buildings and throngs of people Trying to navigate through the crowd and reach the highway seemed like an impossible fest However she noticed that the standalone restroom next to the club appeared unguarded.
She glanced at the restroom for a moment before turning to face Gianna With a calm expression, the stated. “I need to use the restroom.”
Given that everyone present was under Ganna’s watchful eye. Gianna didn’t express any concern about Eleanor attempting to escape. She simply nodded and replied. “Go ahead”
Eleanor began making her way towards the restroom. As she stepped onto the staircase, she accidentally collided with someone coming down. The man swiftly reached out and steadied her shoulder, his voice camying a magnetic and relaxed tone as he spoke. “Miss, where were you rushing to**
Eleanor looked up at him, straight into a pair of calm eyes
Those eyes seemed somewhat familiar at the sight of her
Having seen the handsome Bernard, Eleanor didn’t react much to the stunning man in front of her
She quickly averted her gaze and apologized to him “Im sorry, I was lost in thought and didn’t notice you”
She tried to sidestep him and head to the women’s restroom, but he grabbed her arm again.
Eleanor instinctively shook off his hand and said sternly. “Sir, Ive already apologized, what more do you want?”
Her defensiveness made the man raise his hands, indicating that he was just nervous. “I just wanted to ask your name”
Was he hitting on her?
No, everyone here was Giannas people How could this man not know who she was?
Seeing her confusion, the man shrugged and explained “Ms Penrod invited me to the party I don’t know everyone”
Gianna had just said that she was originally planning to throw a singles party, but changed her mind due to an unexpected assignment
So, this good looking man didn’t know that Team S was on a mission. He was just here for the party.
Realizing this, Eleanor didn’t feel anything special. She glanced at the man and said. Tm married, so please don’t get any ideas”

With that, she walked away, but heard the man’s laughter from behind. “Miss. I just thought you looked familiar. I didn’t have any intentions. Besides, your figure and looks don’t appeal to me.”
