Arielle ignored him and forcefully opened the door. Just as she was about to get out of the room, the man said, “There's a bomb on this ship.”
Halting in her tracks, Arielle stared at the man closely, trying to see if he was telling the truth or not. However, the man's intentions were difficult to read, and it was hard to tell if he was lying or not.
He's too good at hiding his emotions. I can't tell what he's thinking or feeling at all with that neutral expression of his!
As the man watched Arielle's cautious demeanor toward him, he chuckled and said, “Look, if you don't believe me, why don't you open up the wardrobe in room 1201 and find out.”
A loud thud rang out in the very next moment as the door slammed shut.
The man smirked as he remained in the empty room. What an interesting little kitten indeed.
Soon, his face morphed back into his usual cold expression as he used his chin to touch his special watch.
In less than two seconds, a man's polite voice came out from the watch. The voice was asking in a foreign language, “Mr. Aaron, is there anything that I can do for you?”
“Those men have discovered me. I also found out that they planted a bomb on the cruise ship. However, I was unable to find out who they were after. Pin-point my location and get me out of here.”
The voice replied without any hesitation, “Yes,
sir! Be careful. We'll be there soon.”
“All right.” After the call ended, the man's handsome features relaxed slightly. Under the dim lighting, he looked particularly attractive.
The man suddenly recalled Arielle. Don't even think about running now that you've crossed me, little kitten.
He had never expected that he would run into an interesting pet while he was looking into his enemy's background. She was calm in the face of danger and quite attractive too. It was a surprise for him. He decided that he wanted to keep her after capturing her.
Arielle put on a jacket and rushed toward room 1201.
