Chapter 1055 - 343: Don’t Blame Yourself
Out of the corner of her eye, Hazel saw that sneak attack the man was planning, so she looked around quickly, grabbed a bottle of beer from a table, and without hesitation, slammed it on the head of the man beside her.
She had to try every means necessary to save both herself and Mandy. Giving up without a fight was definitely not her style. The group around her didn't know how to react, they thought she had surrendered and never expected that she would keep fighting.
"Catch her!" someone yelled, and a few men surrounded her.
As skillful as Hazel was, there was no way that her first and fee could keep them away from her. The circle around her was getting smaller, and she was becoming more and more desperate.
Suddenly, the door of the room was kicked open. Everyone looked at the door, only to see a figure rush in and hit them. There was a burst of painful grunts, and the men fell to the ground.
Hazel was relieved, she expected to see Joshua, but the one who was there to save her was actually James. She and James had planned to meet at the bar, and thankfully James arrived early.
His combat skills were unbelievable, and he had the group incapacitated in no time.
"Let's go." James yelled to her, "My friends have subdued the men outside."
"Wait!" Hazel hurriedly, "I have a friend here. Let's go find her!"
James's look became a little unpredictable. He suddenly asked, "You never thought about why you were caught in distress this time? Who told you to come here, and why would someone plan it earlier to deal with you? You really haven't guessed who it is that leaked your whereabouts? And you still haven't figured out even if you called for help, you really had no chance?"
"What are you saying?" Hazel frowned unhappily.
"You are really like your parents." James said with annoyance and some helplessness in his voice, "You trust someone so easily!"
"I just don't want to accuse anyone maliciously," Hazel said lightly.
James didn't say anything more but took her to one of the VIP rooms. If
she remembered it correctly, this box was the one she told Mandy to hide in. She opened the door and saw that Mandy was standing alone at the window. When hearing the sound of the door, Mandy turned her head with a little surprise.
"Mandy, how are you? Are you okay?" Hazel hurriedly asked.
At the moment of seeing Hazel, Mandy was flustered in her eyes. She looked at Hazel incredulously. The next moment, she quickly squeezed a smile and said with her eyes flushed, "Hazel, you are okay? That's so good! They came in, took my cell phone, and locked me here. They also threatened me, saying that they would break my leg and destroy me if I ran away. I was really scared..."
That said, Mandy started crying in fear.
"Don't be afraid. Everything is fine now." Hazel whispered and gave her phone back to her, "By the way, where is the evidence you said?"
Mandy's body was slightly stiff for a moment, and then she said in a gloomy tone, "Sorry, the evidence was taken by them..."
"It doesn't matter, as long as you are fine." Hazel didn't ask much and said faintly, "Let's go."
After that, Hazel turned and walked toward the door. Looking at her back, a complex light flashed in Mandy's eyes.
"Hazel!" Mandy suddenly called to stop her.
"What's wrong?" Hazel stopped.
Mandy looked down and said slyly, "I am still scared. Can you take me home?"
Hazel looked at her deeply and said, "Well, where do you live?"
"My original rental has expired, and I have not found a suitable house for the time being, so I am staying at a hotel." Mandy said quickly, "The hotel is nearby, not far from here, so I asked you to meet here. But I didn't expect this to happen..."
"Nothing, don't blame yourself," Hazel said calmly, "They seemed to be doing things for Laura. They were prepared, and we were surprised by them."
"Thanks for not blaming me..." Mandy whispered, and she looked up at James standing next to Hazel and asked, "Will he go with us too?"
"Yeah." Hazel nodded, "His skills are excellent. If he is with us, we will be safer."
Hazel and James took Mandy to a nearby hotel.
Mandy went back to her room and invited them to come in and sit. Hazel looked at the room. The room here was not too big, the typical hotel layout.
"Hazel, drink some coffee." Mandy came with three cups of coffee.
"Thank you." Hazel smiled and picked up the cup, and took a sip. James also picked up a cup and drank it without hesitation.
"Hazel, I am so sorry." Mandy also took a sip of her cup of coffee and said, "I didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing..."
"I told you not to apologize, right?" Hazel smiled faintly, but this smile didn't reach the bottom of her eyes.
Suddenly, Mandy's cell phone rang. Mandy took the call, and she apologized to them, "Sorry, Hazel, I'm going downstairs to collect an express delivery."
"Do you need me to accompany you?" Hazel asked faintly, "Are you not afraid anymore?"
"It's okay." Mandy hurriedly shook her head, "The security of this hotel is very good. There are surveillance and security everywhere. I'll just pick up the delivery. It should be nothing."
"Well, go ahead then," Hazel said faintly.
Mandy hurried out of the room and closed the door heavily.
She stood at the door and slowly raised her head. At that moment, Mandy turned into a completely different person. She was normally a shy, introverted girl who was easy to be bullied, but her entire personality changed.
Mandy let out a cold sneer, listening to the movement in the room. She heard the shattering of two cups, she smiled proudly. Even if Hazel could escape from the bar, she still fell into her hands.
Mandy went to the next room and took out her phone to call Joshua.
"Master Joshua, I beg you. Come and save Hazel." Mandy said with a cry,
"She is in Room 282 of the Victoria Hotel, please come soon, ah-!"
After saying that, Mandy hung up and turned her phone off. Then, singing a little song under her breath, she took off her bulky glasses and pushed her thick bangs back from her forehead. She looked in the mirror, the face looking back resembled Hazel.
