Chapter 1062
When Love Comes Late
âIâm sorry, but thatâs our guestsâ privacy.
I canât disclose that information,â the employee refused politely.
Stellaâs gaze dropped, contemplating her next move.
After a moment, she discreetly pulled out some bills from her bag, slipping them into the workerâs hand.
âPlease, itâs urgent.
Just tell me his room number.
â
The employee glanced at the money and lowered his voice.
âHeâs in Room 628,â
Thanking him, Stella hurried inside.
She located Room 628 and tiptoed towards it.
She barely lifted her heels to peer through the small window on the door when a firm grip seized her hand.
Startled, Stella turned around, meeting a pair of eyes as sharp as a hawkâs.
Stella stood frozen as her mind went blank.
She opened her mouth to speak, but no sound came out under the manâs piercing gaze.
âDonât make a sound.
Follow me,â Benny said sternly, his voice devoid of warmth.
Without waiting for Stellaâs response, he gripped her arm and briskly escorted her to the elevator.
The descent to the underground parking lot felt endless, with Benny maintaining a firm hold on Stella, who winced at the strength of his grip.
Stellaâs mind slowly cleared from the initial shock as they exited the elevator.
She looked at the manâs broad back and asked, âWho are you? Why are you doing this to me?â
She attempted to wriggle free from his unyielding grip, but to no avail.
Benny roughly pulled her towards a sleek black car.
He swung open the rear door and threw her inside.
Caught off guard, Stella stumbled and hit her head against the door frame.
âAh!â she exclaimed, gripping her aching head.
Stella tried to clamber back out of the car.
However, Benny was quicker.
He shoved her back in and climbed into the back seat, making the already tight space feel even more constricted.
Stella bit her lip as she tried to gauge his next move.
She scooted backwards to move as far away as possible from him, but her body soon hit against the car door.
Trapped and with no avenue for escape, she trembled slightly with fear.
âWhat do you want from me? Do you know what consequences youâll face for kidnapping me?â
Without warning, Benny leaned forward and grasped her cheeks with his hand.
Stellaâs eyes widened in shock.
