Jason thought, ‘This voice sounds a little familiar. It seems to be Luna’s. As for what she’s doing on the other end of the phone, I could guess with my eyes closed.”

This call came at the wrong time. Jason cleared his throat and said apologetically, “Sorry for interrupting your enjoyment. I’ll hang up first.

We’ll talk later.”

A deep and hoarse male voice came through the receiver. There was a hint of breathlessness in his tone. “It’s fine,” he said. “I’ve already answered. Tell me. What’s the matter?”

The Baker family and the Wilson family were the top–tier wealthy families in Vayberry and Cester City. They had numerous collaborative projects in private. West and Jason had an exceptionally strong friendship.

Whenever they needed each other’s help in the past, they could usually settle it with a phone call.

Jason did not stand on ceremony with him and went straight to the point. “Mobilize your people in Vayberry and help me find out someone’s whereabouts,” he said.

“Oh? Your wife, huh?” West asked teasingly.

Jason was stunned for a moment. When he thought about how Luna was with West now, he suddenly realized something.

He thought, it seems that she has gone to look for West because of Sophia, thave to say that having Luna as a friend is the greatest blessing in Sophia’s life!

“Since you already know, I won’t waste words,” Jason said. “Please help me find her as soon as possible.”

When West heard this, he asked with a half–smile, “You have fallen in love with that woman,

huh?”

He thought, ‘If that’s really the case, then there’ll be quite a show to watch. For people like us, who have made countless enemies in both the underworld and the law–abiding world, what we strive to avoid the most is having vulnerabilities or weaknesses. We’re not afraid of death. We’re afraid of being held by the throat, unable to live or die.”

Jason squinted and said in a serious voice, “This doesn’t seem to have anything to do with you. You just need to help me find her.”

“Okay, but you have to be mentally prepared,” West said. “People who can disappear into thin air under your nose are definitely not ordinary people. Perhaps they’re targeting you. Being overly concerned about that woman undoubtedly exposes your vulnerabilities to them. In the end, not only will you fail to save her, but you will also drag yourself into the situation.”

With that said, he hung up immediately.

Jason listened to the beeping sound coming from the receiver and frowned.

Aaron, who was standing at the side, tried to ask, Mr. Wilson, why don’t we send additional people to Vayberry for the search?”

‘Send people to Vayberry? Jason thought.

Recalling West’s earlier warning, he shook his head and said, “It’s okay. I’ll go to Vayberry personally.”

Right after he said that, Ada’s attending physician rushed over and said anxiously, “Mr. Wilson, Miss Ada’s heart condition has flared up again.”

A hint of Impatience flashed across Jason’s eyes

He thought, “I rescued Ada safely and arranged the best hospital treatment for her, but she still keeps causing inconvenience. What about that woman? Her fate is unknown now. Who should she act endearingly and show vulnerability to?”

The guilt in his heart was like a sharp blade that kept scraping his flesh. Each breath felt suffocatingly uncomfortable.

“If she’s sick, treat her,” he said. “Why are you looking for me?”

The attending physician was left speechless.

In a top–notch club in Vayberry, Luna lay on a soft sofa and bit her lips tightly, enduring West’s teasing in humiliation.

The hellish experiences of the past few days flooded into her mind, and she began to tremble intensely all over.

If it weren’t for saving Sophia, she wouldn’t want to have any involvement with this man for the rest of her life.

But fate played tricks on her. She tried her best to escape from him, but in the end, she still rushed back to Vayberry overnight and eagerly offered herself for him to vent his desire.

She was repulsed by this almost twisted intimacy. Every part of her body was tense, and she was resisting

West’s patience finally reached its limit. After slowly stopping his actions meant to satisfy himself, he reached out and pinched her chin.

“You look so humiliated,” he said. “Did I force you? If you don’t want to do it, get lost. Don’t be an eyesore in front of me.”

With that said, he exerted force and flung her onto the valuable carpet. After sitting up straight and tidying up his disheveled sleeping robe, he lit a cigar and started puffing away, completely disregarding Luna, who was naked.

Luna propped herself up on her elbows, West looked cold. His expression showed that he was not the least moved emotionally and disoriented. Luna could not help but feel a strong sense of humiliation when she saw that.

If he had wanted her as if he were mad, she wouldn’t have felt so terrible. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

But he didn’t. Even when they were making love, his gaze remained clear. He merely treated her as a tool to vent his desire.

He had dozens of properties in Vayberry, yet he chose a nightclub to get intimate with her, treating her as if she were an escort.

Looking at West’s well–defined facial features, she could no longer find any sense of familiarity.

After eight years, he had completely transformed into a powerful figure who wielded authority. The powerful aura he exuded intimidated her.

“West. West..

West’s cold gaze swept over, and her entire body trembled uncontrollably. She hurriedly changed the way she addressed him. “Mr. Baker, please help me,” she said.
