Chapter 2097

On the other side, Stella found herself abruptly snatched and dragged next to Beck, a blindfold darkening her world.

All she had wanted was to pop downstairs to the supermarket for some groceries. Little did she know, she'd end up kidnapped, clueless about her captor's identity.

Forced to kneel, the flick of a lighter near her ear was the only sound breaking the tense silence.

Beck, seated mightily in his chair, looked down upon her with a gaze that sent chills down her spine.

Stella's face tensed, an instinctive cry for Beck almost escaping her lips before his next words froze her completely.

"The house you've been living in belongs to a hacker linked to Maja's kidnapping. When I caught him, he refused to squeal. Turns out, it was you, Stella."

The smirk slowly fading from Stella's eyes, she knew Beck must've unearthed some clue to speak so boldly.

She was trapped, with no way out.

Lowering her head, she chose silence over defense.

But Beck, seizing her hair with a swift motion, forced her to meet his eyes, inflicting a sharp pain that wrinkled her forehead, though she quickly masked it with a smile.

"Beck, haven't you figured it all out already?"

The moment she finished speaking, Beck flung her aside.
