Chapter 330

Xylia spun around, her eyes locking onto Holt, who stood not far away.

Holt was tall and built like a tank–a classic foreign muscleman straight out of an action flick.

He was Richard’s right–hand man, and from how Richard had hurried off earlier, something major must’ve gone down.

But even then, Richard hadn’t taken Holt with him.

‘Guess watching me is a top priority too,‘ Xylia thought to herself.

Xylia gave Holt a blank stare, then strode straight toward the villa entrance.

Holt quickly stepped sideways, blocking her way.

“Where are you going?” Holt asked, his tone firm.

“Just going out for a walk. What, you got a problem with that?” Xylia retorted.

‘Richard said it himself–I can go wherever I want on this estate, Xylia thought, her expression unchanged.

‘There’s no way Holt would defy Richard’s orders, Xylia thought to herself.

And sure enough, with a frown, Holt remembered what Richard had said. He grudgingly stepped aside, letting Xylia go–orders were orders, after all.

Once Xylia stepped out of the villa, she could tell right away–Holt was tailing her, playing watchdog.

Out of the corner of her eye, she spotted Holt hovering close, but didn’t bother saying anything.

She walked slowly along the edge of the estate, not in any rush.

The place was massive, and walking at a leisurely pace, it took her nearly an hour just to make a full circle.

By the end, her calves were screaming for mercy.

The whole estate was wrapped in an electric fence–not even a mosquito could sneak in.

It was locked down tight–no one inside could get out, and no one outside could get in.

If Joshua really tried to bust in and rescue her, he’d just end up getting himself into serious trouble.

Xylia took a quick look around. There were plenty of people on the estate–mostly bodyguards and thugs, with a few servants tossed in.

She didn’t want Joshua charging in blindly to save her. It was too dangerous.

‘Way too dangerous,‘ Xylia thought, a chill running down her spine.
