The Windfalls of Love novel Chapter 235

What sent chills down Roxanne's spine was not only the eerie atmosphere here, but also the formidable Dino.

She didn't have much confidence in herself.

But she had to go.

She wanted to ask Harrison for help, but he had completely shut her out of his world, not even allowing her to see his face.

She thought of reach Alexander and Dominic Thompson for help, but both of them were abroad with their phones turned off, unreachable.

She was on her own.

The more scared she was, the faster she walked, as if to muster the courage.

The large trees outside the hotel blocked most of the moonlight.

The moon reflected on the nearby lake surface, casting a chilling light, accompanied by a chilling breeze.

She had never felt such a bone-chilling cold in summer.

Yet, Roxanne, without hesitation, entered the hotel's front doors.

At this moment, her phone suddenly rang, startling her to a cold sweat.

She answered the call with trembling hands, and it was Dino's voice on the other end, "I can see you. Take the stairs and come up to the eighteenth floor."

"Where's Chloe? You haven't harmed her, have you?"

In the empty hotel lobby, her voice and the light from her phone broke the deathly silence and darkness.

Her voice seemed to echo in the hallway, sending shivers down her spine.

Creepily.

But her remained resolute, saying, "I want to hear Chloe's voice."

"You have no right to make demands of me. Hurry up and bring me the video I want."

The call was suddenly cut off.

Roxanne gathered the courage to climb up to the eighteenth floor through the eerie stairwell.

Following the light, she found Chloe bound to a chair, the fat and obnoxious Mr. Dino, and his two henchmen.

Roxanne's shipment was inexplicably seized by customs and she was now facing hefty fines.

This was the work of Dino.

He had met Roxanne at customs, and found she was attractive with long and captivating legs.

He wanted to sleep with her, and that was why done these things.

Now that he couldn't sleep with Roxanne, and Roxanne held a video he wanted to exploit, he had now turn desperate.

If this video were to go public, his position as customs chief would certainly be in jeopardy.

He would never let Roxanne off easy, and he snarled, "Tie her up."

His henchmen approached Roxanne, ready to grab her.

She held a pepper spray and sprayed them with it.

"Fuck!" One of the men screamed, writhing on the floor.

The other man, however, was highly trained, seemingly a professional bodyguard. He kicked the pepper spray out of Roxanne's hand and also struck her in the abdomen.

Losing her balance, Roxanne stumbled several meters backward and fell on the ground.

Chloe, bound to the chair, was worried about her but couldn't call out because her mouth was gagged. Tears welled up in her eyes as she helplessly watched them.

Roxanne wanted to get up, but her abdomen pain made her movement nearly impossible.

Seeing him approach, she nervously clutched something in her hand.
