Chapter 764

Ben was startled and did not react in time. “Turn the car around? Toward where?”

Weston looked up and shot him an impatient glare.

Ben understood his message at once. “Are we going to pick Ms. Steele up? Alright! I’ll turn the car
around now!”

Ben did not know what he was excited about, but he was proud to have predicted that this would
happen. He had known Weston could not bear to see Stella staying in such a place.

Two men in suits strode into the small hotel in Midtown. The hotel owner was still busy on her phone
when they came in. She was a little stunned to see them.

“You guys… are looking for a room?”

Ben had come into the small hotel with another bodyguard. They were here to bring Stella back.

Ben knew Weston’s temper well. A stubborn man like him would never come in person.

Ben cut to the chase and said, “A beautiful woman came to stay earlier. Which room is she in?”

“That’s our guests’ privacy. We can’t-”

Before she could finish her sentence, Ben dropped a stack

of cash in front of her.

“Hurry up while I’m still willing to talk to you.”

“Alright, sure!” The lady broke into a bright smile and gave him the room number at once.



Meanwhile, Weston was waiting in the car outside the hotel. Not long after, Ben came running out in a
hurry. He looked like he was panicking. Ben informed Weston, “Mr. Ford, Ms. Steele isn’t in her
room…”

Weston frowned and looked at Ben. His face gradually turned cold.

“What do you mean?” he asked coldly. Ben would not have come to him with this look if Stella was only
away from the room. There must be bad news.



Ben wiped his sweat and explained, “The lady in the hotel said Ms. Steele went out to buy water. I had
someone go to the nearby supermarket to look for her. They said she did buy the water but had left a
long time ago. She never returned to the hotel…

“We’ve checked the nearby surveillance. She has not been anywhere else except the supermarket to
buy water.”

Weston’s expression turned very ugly. “Keep looking,” he ordered . Then, he pushed open the car door
and got

out. “I’ll go and check at the hotel.”

“Alright, Mr. Ford.”

Ben led the way. The lady earlier was still shocked by their sudden interruption. She went to Stella’s
room to see what was wrong. When she heard a noise downstairs, she hurriedly rushed out.

“What’s wrong? What’s going on…” She saw a handsome man walking in. He had a strong and tall
stature and looked powerful in his smart-looking suit. She was a little shocked.



“Y-You guys…”

Ben came out from behind Weston. “We’re just here to look for someone. If you don’t want trouble, tell
us what you know.”

“Okay, okay…”

Meanwhile , Weston went to Stella’s room. He looked at her things in the room with a solemn
expression.

She did not pack much. It was mostly her toiletries. She really did not take anything he had bought for
her. Her charger and necessities were still in the bag. That meant she was not going elsewhere. She
might have gotten into trouble.

As he thought of that, his face turned grim. The air around him dropped to a freezing temperature.

The men around him dared not make a sound.

Weston looked like he was about to kill someone. “Find her,” he ordered in a cold and serious tone. “If
you can’t find her, get lost!”

Stella was taken to a car with her eyes blindfolded and her mouth gagged.
