The Billionaire's Mistake

MISTAKE 196

Chapter 196: The plot gone wrong

Even though James had made plans, the words hit James like a physical blow, stealing the very air from his lungs.

This was not far from his prediction, but the thought of her being taken still shook him up.

For a moment, the world around him ground to a halt as looked to the man with a frown.

"What did you say?" he ground out through clenched teeth, his hands already curling into white-knuckled fist,

at his sides.

The hotel manager swallowed hard, suddenly wary of the towering, inferno of fury blazing in his son's eyes.

"Madam....we saw on the surveillance video, two masked men grabbing her off the corridors."

They actually came and they took her. He was more angry than he had anticipated he would be. Someone had dared to lay a hand on his wife. They were looking down on him. He took in a deep breath and rubbed his temples. He suddenly felt a headache descend on his

skull.

"Taken?" he echoed, his voice barely above a whisper. "How is that possible? Where could they have taken her?"

He thought he had covered all possibilities. If they tried something, they would be caught quickly, but they actually succeeded in taking her?

How could they take her without triggering any alert?

He shot a look to his men and they hurried off.
