Billionaire's Match (by Tangy Candy) novel Chapter 1204

"She's probably just fainted from the shock. The ambulance is already here, let's get her to the hospital."

The rescuer glanced at Winnie, then immediately radioed the waiting medical team.

Michael scooped Winnie up and strode toward the exit, but before he even reached the door, two familiar faces appeared in front of him.

"Michael!"

"Michael!"

Charlotte and Ethan rushed over one after the other, trailed by several police officers.

Michael's stomach dropped. "What are you two doing…"

"What happened to Winnie?" Ethan's eyes landed on Winnie's unconscious form, and he tensed at once.

"She's fine, just fainted," Michael said, his voice heavy.

"What about you? Are you okay? Are you both all right?"

Charlotte rushed over and looked both of them over carefully, as if she already had a good idea of what they'd just been through.

Michael shook his head. "We're both fine; the elevator just malfunctioned. But what are you two doing here?"

Charlotte and Ethan exchanged a look, and Ethan said, "Get Winnie to the hospital first. We'll come find you later."

Seeing the officers trailing behind them, Michael already had a good guess at what was going on.

This elevator failure was probably no accident.

He nodded and hurried off with Winnie. Two of the officers with Charlotte and Ethan split off to follow him.

No sooner had Michael left than Lucas arrived in a rush with a team of men and the local police in tow.

"Is everyone all right?"

Lucas was out of breath. The moment he finished asking Charlotte, his eyes caught on the elevator shaft ahead, and he sucked in a sharp breath.

"What happened here..."

"It's Michael. They went after him," Charlotte said, her voice low and trembling slightly, fear catching up with her only now.

Lacuna and Trey were completely out of their minds!

No wonder they'd chosen Jayelle City. They'd come here specifically to target Michael.

It made sense, in a twisted way. Khloe had few weak points left. Nick and the rest of the Hunts were untouchable, which made Michael the easiest target of all.

But Michael had already been hurt once before. If Khloe found out about this, there was no way she'd let it go.

An hour earlier, Charlotte and Ethan had originally arranged to meet Lucas at Jayelle City's central police station.

But on the way there, Charlotte received another anonymous message, this time from an unfamiliar number, with nothing but an address and two words: [Come now!]

It was clearly urgent.
