What Separates Me and You

Chapter 240 Kidnap

Meanwhile, Sierra was asleep for nearly a whole day before she was woken up by a call from her manager in the afternoon.

Josephine’s manager urged her to the set as the TV series would be ready for release once. Josephine finished filming her part in the show.

Sierra got up from the bed agitatedly and ran her fingers through her disheveled hair. The first thing she did after waking up was to check if Lewis was there.

As expected, she was let down again. Lewis was nowhere to be seen.

Although he frequently spent his nights here, he always left early in the morning, sometimes even in the middle of the night.

He would always leave so quietly. Sierra almost never saw him every time she woke up the next day.

Sierra could only sigh in disappointment. Bleary-eyed, she went to the bathroom to wash up, changed, and started her car.

The film set was located quite far away, requiring a three-hour drive through winding roads nestled amidst mountains. Josephine had to navigate through these narrow paths to reach her destination.

Sierra drove rather monotonously as she listened to the radio while occasional escape her lips.

Just as Sierra raised her gaze, a van abruptly veered from the side, careening onto the road and coming to an abrupt stop, effectively blocking her path. Reacting swiftly, Sierra pressed hard on the brake pedal but still crashed into the van.

The impact of the collision triggered the deployment of the airbag. However, Sierra still struck her head forcefully against the steering wheel, causing an intense wave of pain that momentarily obscured her vision. After a brief moment of disorientation, Sierra instinctively reached up and gently rubbed her throbbing forehead. She looked up at the van in rage, convinced they must be the prop crew.

A young man came down the van and walked over to Sierra.

Sierra, too, opened her car door and strode over. She glared at the young man angrily. “Why can’t you drive properly? You could have honked your car!”

The man apologized with a smile. “Sorry, sorry.”

As Sierra prepared to continue her tirade, the man closed the distance between them. Before she could utter another word, she felt something sharp pressed against her waist.

“Don’t move.”

Sierra was taken aback. Eyes wide open, she lowered her head to find a dagger pressed against her waist.

“You…” Sierra stared at the young man with shock. Her voice trembled slightly as she asked, What do you want from me?”

“You’ll find out later. Get in the car.” The man jutted his chin to signal her to get into the car.
