A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

"We should go right now. I feel perfectly fine. Besides, I need to tell Jacob about this as soon as possible."

As Emily spoke, she took her bag and was ready to walk out of the door. Taylor felt helpless at that moment, since she knew there was no chance of stopping her. As a result, she agreed to go with her.

As soon as they walked out of Emily's office, both of them noticed that there was an indescribable aroma in the air. However, they had no clue where it came from.

After walking just a few steps, they suddenly collapsed to the ground and were left completely unconscious. Anyone who happened to come across them could easily take advantage of these gorgeous women.

However, a man sitting on a chair near them didn't seem to be interested in doing so.

This mysterious man had a frigid presence around him. He simply looked at Taylor and Emily like nothing had happened. He was more focused on enjoying his cigarette and puffing out smoke rings until the end.

When he was finished, he threw the cigarette butt on the floor. As soon as it touched the ground, a hissing sound came from nowhere. This caused the whole room to have a deafening silence to it. A few moments later, some men arrived and took the two women to an unknown location.

"What are you waiting for? Don't just stand there!"

Darren furiously exclaimed at Jonas since he was so upset with him. It was clear that he had had enough of Jonas's repeated failure.

There was still a bit of dried-up blood on Jonas's forehead. However, he knew it wasn't the time to clean it up since Darren was already in a bad mood. He quickly approached Emily's and Taylor's lifeless bodies to appease Darren and began the procedure.

He squatted down and looked at their faces. Since Jonas had his back turned, Darren couldn't see how determined Jonas was at that moment. Hence, he shouted at him once again, "Go faster! You know what to do!"

When Jonas heard the anger in his voice, he immediately began to hypnotize Emily and Taylor. His intention was to make them forget everything that had happened earlier that day.

About half an hour later, Jonas looked a little tired. He got up slowly and walked towards Darren. Then, he said, "Everything's done. When they wake up, they won't have any clue what happened to them."

It was not until that moment that Darren was able to have a smile on his face.

"Well, I hope what you're saying is true. I don't want you to let me down again. Otherwise, you'll have to face the consequences."

Darren stood up and left the moment he finished speaking. His men quickly followed him outside. Jonas could only watch Darren's back while he walked away.
