Chapter 375 âI can walk on my own, you donât need to carry me She wasnât seriously injured and definitely didnt need him to carry her around Eleanor struggled to get down, but Bernard wasnât having it.
He carried her out of the hospital and straight into his car âWCity isnât safe right now. Iâll take you home.â
Bernard buckled her seatbelt and signaled the driver to get out.
The driver who had been dispatched by a subsidiary wasnât familiar with Mr. Laurenceâs ways and was a bit lost.
It took him a few glances at Eleanor to realize that the boss was wooing her, so he hurriedly got out of the car.
Bernard shot the driver a frosty look âYou donât need to come anymore.â
The driver stood dumbfounded. Did he mean not to drive anymore or not to come to the company?
Watching the car drive away, he puzzled over it for a while before it hit him.
âOh crap, Iâm fired!â
Bernard started the car, backed out with one hand, and once he was out of W City, he turned to Eleanor and asked, âWhere do you live?â
Eleanor didnât want him to drop her off, but Bernard had always been a one man show He did whatever he wanted, and she had no right to refuse She gripped the seatbelt tightly, and reluctantly told him her hotel address Bernard glanced at Eleanor through the rearview mirror and didnt like the sullen look on her face He forced himself not to look at her anymore, gripped the steering wheel and swiftly drove her to the hotel entrance As Eleanor got out of the car, she turned and said. âThank you. Mr. Laurenceâ
Her polite but distant manner caused Bernard to frown slightly, but he didnât say anything, and just handed her the purse sheâd left behind the night before Eleanor took the purse, thanked him again, closed the car door, and hurried into the hotel
As soon as she got off the elevator, she heard Pearceâs panicked voice âHereâs her ID, take it and find her for me, and find Theoââ
Pearce handed the ID over to the police Allthe valuables in our room have been stolen, everything else doesnât matter, but my gold paintbrush must be found!â
Pearce had always kept his cool, but after a series of disasters, even he was falling apart His handsome face was twisted with anger, his eyes wide, he looked somewhat terrifying âPearceâ
Eleanor quickly approached him, furrowing her brows. âWhat happened?â
Pearce was shocked to see her safe and sound. âWerent you taken by Theoâs people?*
Hed seen a man carrying Eleanor away from the banquet hall the night before and hadnât gotten a good look at his face.
Worried for Eleanorâs safety, he chased after them, but the luxury car took off at a high speed The driver, seeing his urgency, even tried to extort him Hed been ripped off a large sum of money and the car was slow By the time heâd spent all his cash, the stretch limo was long gonel He was furious and guessed that Theo had sent someone to take her away.

He rushed to the space agency and got Theoâs home address, but Theoâs wife told him that Theo hadnât returned home but had gone to a banquet This made him even more certain that it was Theo Unable to find Theo, he had to return to the hotel, intending to report to the police with his ID, only to find that all the valuables in both suites had gonel He checked the hotelâs surveillance footage and saw a few people climbing through the window and taking everything, even the bank cards were gone Thankfully, their passports were still there, otherwise, they would have had trouble getting back homel After finishing his story, Pearce looked at Eleanor âHow did you get back?â
Being taken away in a foreign country usually meant either being violated or disappearing, it was incredible that she was able to return unharmed Eleanor simply explained that sheâd run into an acquaintance, then pushed past him and hurried into her room.
The theft of the items was trivial, but Emiliaâs album, which was not only invaluable but also of great significance, couldnât be stolen The cute was a mess, clothes from the suitcase were thrown all over the floor, and the bed was turned upside down Eleanor quickly walked to the desk, opened the drawer, and sure enough, the album and sketches were gone.
