Trapped in Love By Kitty Song

Chapter 11 Find Out Where She Is

Daniella extended her hand toward Evan’s phone, ready to pass it to him.

However, as she glanced at the caller ID displaying Caroline’s name, a glimmer of coldness flickered in her eyes. She hesitated briefly, then swiftly ended the call and slipped the phone back into Evan’s coat, feigning nonchalance.

Meanwhile, Caroline remained frozen in place, her mind reeling, as she witnessed the abrupt termination of the call.

Was he too occupied to answer?

With determination, Caroline clenched her teeth and hailed a taxi to make her way to the casino. She desperately hoped Evan would return her call.

An hour passed.

Caroline stepped out of the car and stood at the entrance of the opulent casino. Determined, she made her way through the bustling lobby, seeking directions that led her to Room 02.

Taking a deep breath, she gathered her courage and pushed open the door.

As the door creaked open, a pungent combination of smoke and the scent of blood assaulted her senses.

Several menacing-looking men sat inside the private room, and her father knelt on the floor, his face drained of color. His injured hand, missing several fingers, was hastily wrapped in blood-soaked gauze.

At the sound of the door, Bradley weakly lifted his head. His eyes were filled with desperation to survive. “Carol! Save me, please!”
