Chapter 501
"Everyone, thank you for coming today. It is the birthday of our lady boss. Therefore, the hotel has specially planned a lucky draw event for all the ladies. The first, second and third prizes will be lucky red packets worth up to 99,900 dollar! Right now, the wait staff will give you a number token and record your number. After that, we will carry out the drawing event. This is only for the ladies so all the gentlemen, please move aside and have a rest. Ladies, who will be the lucky one tonight? Just register your name and cooperate with us, and good luck will come to you soon. After verifying your ID card, go to the hotel counter to receive your cash reward..."
Soon, the vast banquet hall was separated into two. It was lively and exciting.
From time to time, Holger would look at the record on his mobile phone. He looked at Trevor and shook his head. "I should have asked those who arrived first to detain the people."
However, it was a serious matter after all, and the two of them were helpless. It was really irritating that their target could not be found.
Trevor and Holger stood at the side of the door, observing everything inside. The waiter followed the instructions through a phone call, recording the numbers and names one by one.
Soon, the list was put together. There were performances and speeches on the stage before the lucky draw event, while Trevor and Holger checked the list.
"No?"
"Why not?"
The moment their eyes met, they were both stunned. Then, Trevor asked, "Would she have left ahead of schedule?"
"No, it can't be! Her location was still here just now!" Holger was sure.
"Did someone submit a fake name?" He asked.
"Isn't it a waste setting up this lucky draw event then? You see, those with a dot behind the name, they are all young women. Almost all of them are here, but there is no one with two dots. That means that none of the ladies our people verified is similar to Amelia in the photo," Holger explained.
"She's not in the ballroom..." Trevor said.
"The bathroom!"
They shouted at the same time, and then arranged for people to head in the direction of the washroom together.
At this time, Amelia had already hidden in a storage room. She found a set of old kitchen staff's uniform which consisted of a white shirt, and a pair of black trousers. She also broke off the heels of her high heels and she found a rope to tie them to her feet. She covered them with the wide and long trousers.
Although she was not sure, she was just trying to be safe.
After all, she had been working in this circle for some time, so she knew some rumors about The Four Great Masters.
However, these years, they had never been caught for doing this. This time, she thought that she had done it flawlessly. She didn't even run away and had been living in peace for so long. She didn't expect to get trapped. Actually, after a brief thought, she knew why.
That b*stard must have been recognized by someone when he went out with the bracelet.
Originally, she had been looking for a way to sell it. Recently, she had been contacting rich stars and wanted to sell it privately. The reason why she took the certificate was to prevent him from suffering any loss.
That impatient man could only cause trouble.
Just as she was worrying about what to do in the future, there were footsteps coming from the corridor. Vaguely, a familiar voice could be heard. "Hey, have you found her?" Bryson asked.
"Can you let me go? Oh, it hurts so much. I have to go and see a doctor!" He said.
"Don't pretend. If you die, it will save us a lot of trouble. We will throw you into a river and everything is done. If we can't find her, you don't need to see a doctor anymore," the other party warned him.
"You'd better pray to God that everything goes smoothly," the other party said.
She held her breath and listened to the sound of the footsteps get further and further away. Amelia was so angry that her insides knotted, "It was really Bryson, that wimp!"
Men were really unreliable.
No, she could not wait for death here.
She packed up her valuables, folded a piece of white cloth into a handkerchief and covered her mouth. She lowered her head and opened the door.
At this time, in the back garden of the hotel, Anthony was walking with Victoria under the moonlight around the flower bushes. They walked to a small swing. She sat on it while he stood behind her and gently pushed her The two chatted about daily life, and the atmosphere was very warm.
"The dim moonlight is quite unique, but it looks like it's going to rain so it's a little pity. Otherwise, what a beautiful night it will be with the moonlight, the waves, the flowers, the swing, and the amazing man!" She exclaimed.
"Haha, to spend this time with you, even if there is a big storm, it will still be the best weather," he said.
"Hey, your mouth is so sweet today. I wonder who's the one always complaining on rainy days..." She teased him.
Putting his hands on her shoulders, he lowered his head and planted a gentle kiss on her hair. "The weather, of course, will vary according to the person and the mood."
"Hehe."
Smiling, Victoria looked back and was about to grab her hand, only then did she realize that her hands were empty. "Hey, where is my handbag? I must have put it with the flowers in the room."
"Then go back and look for it. Don't lose it again. Is the cell phone in it?" He asked.
"I will go back and get it myself. You help me keep the swing occupied. Don't let others take it. I haven't played enough yet and want to play a little longer." It was rare for her to be in such a good mood but that day, she was very happy.
She got up, albeit a little reluctantly. Anthony grabbed her and pressed her back onto the swing.
"Well, you can play on the swing here and wait for me while I go back and get it for you. Today, you are the boss, so you can play to your heart's content."
"Well, okay."
"Be careful, don't swing too high, and don't walk around!" He reminded her.
Waving his hand, Anthony hurried back to the hotel.
When he went upstairs again, he noticed something odd at the elevator door, but it was not his concern so he just glanced at it once, turned the corner and walked in.
At this moment, in a corner on the other side, Amelia walked out and brushed past two men in black. She lowered her head, pretended to cough, and covered her mouth with a white handkerchief. She wore a hat, so they did not pay attention to her.
After they brushed past each other and walked for some distance, suddenly, a man stopped and spoke.
"Did you smell a... fragrance?"
Their eyes met, and then they turned around at the same time. "You, freeze!"
Amelia paused and then quickly turned a corner and ran. Right then, she bumped into Anthony. Instinctively, he gave her a hand. When he saw her, he was also rather shocked.
Just when he was about to speak, a man's voice could be heard.
"Catch her. Don't let her run!"
Reflexively, he pulled Amelia and ran a few steps and pushed her into the room. He locked the door and asked her questions in a low voice.
"What's going on? What are you doing? Why are they coming after you?"Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

didn't know he was married, and I didn't know how his wife found out about me. He didn't listen to my explanation, and even framed me for stealing things. If I really have hundreds of millions of dollars, would I have to work hard to make money? He didn't listen to me and wanted to kill me. This person is very cruel and powerful! I can't let them find me. What should I do?" She lied.
There was a sound of chaotic footsteps outside the door. She felt that she was doomed. She was very anxious. She walked around in
circles and yelling was heard outside the door. Anthony didn't have time to think. Someone knocked on the
door. He glanced at the ope
and spoke.
"Don't come out until I call you."
