Chapter 221 What Exactly Are You Trying To Do

Eileen stood outside the operating room, anxiously waiting as the surgery had been ongoing for three to four hours. She had been continuously calling Elm, but there was no answer on the other end.

Feeling uneasy, she paced back and forth, wondering, “Where on earth has Elm gone?”

She didn’t have the phone numbers of any of Elm’s relatives, only his.

Eileen pondered, “Is it possible that Elm is at Peach Fishing Village with Paola?”

“Besides this place, I don’t know where else he would be,” she thought.

She quickly found the phone number of her former boss at the seafood barbecue restaurant.

She dialed the number, hoping for a response.

At this moment, at Peach Fishing Village…

Samuel was being held hostage by a group of unidentified thugs, and all the dining guests were forced to leave.

“What do you guys want?” Samuel asked, his voice filled with concern.

Lionel toyed with the knife in his hand and replied, “It’s nothing really, just a minor issue. But you’d better behave yourself. This knife in my hand doesn’t discriminate. If someone calls later, no matter what they ask, just say you don’t know. If you dare to reveal anything, be prepared for the consequences.”

Samuel, a robust man standing at a hundred and eighty-nine centimeters, felt helpless against so many people. Not only were they numerous, but the man holding him hostage had a dagger, and there seemed to be a gun bulging at his waist. Naturally, he didn’t dare to act recklessly.

No sooner had the words been spoken than the phone on the counter began to ring.

Lionel gave him a meaningful glance. With trembling hands, Samuel picked up the phone and stammered, “W-Who is this?”

“Mr. Samuel, it’s me, Eileen. I want to ask if Paola and Elin are together Have you seen him?”

Samuel replied, I. I didn’t see him Don’t ask me I don’t know anything

Lionel took the liberty to hang up the phone “At least you’re somewhat honest. Remember, if she calls again, do you know what to say?”
