The Ex and Her Riches
Chapter 660
Though Gwendolyn’s mouth was stuffed and the blindfold was still over her eyes, she heard the report clearly.
She let out a small sigh of relief, although her heart skipped a beat at the thought of Benedict hiding in the ward’s closet.
Silently, she hoped that the guards Cedrick had sent would soon notice the unusual situation in the ward, retrieve Benedict from the closet, and ensure his safety.
As the van drove on, Gwendolyn tapped her fingers and calmly estimated the duration of the journey.
Throughout the journey, the men did not speak, displaying exceptional discipline and cohesion.
Gwendolyn could not help feeling even more curious about their employer.
After approximately forty minutes, the van stopped. The men removed the rag in Gwendolyn’s mouth and dragged her out of the vehicle.
Gwendolyn expressed her displeasure, reprimanding them in a low voice, “Show some respect to a lady. Haven’t you been taught to be gentle and considerate?”
The men were taken aback.
These days, it seems like the hostages are becoming more arrogant than the kidnappers themselves.
“Your fate is in our hands, you know. You should be more polite.”
Gwendolyn remained fearless, her voice calm yet icy. “You’ve taken me as a hostage to leverage something from Cedrick, and he will be furious if I suffer even the slightest harm. I believe you understand the consequences better than I do. You should treat a hostage like me with care, as you would handle fragile cargo. Do you understand?”
Although she was blindfolded and bound, stripped of her freedom, her commanding presence remained intact, leaving the men in suits astonished.
The men, being subordinates unaware of their employer’s intentions, decided it was safer to comply with Gwendolyn’s instructions and handle her with care.
“Let’s go, Ms. Harris.”
With the help of two men, Gwendolyn started forward. Though she could not see the route ahead, her hands, bound behind her back, were not idle.
Before coming here, she had grabbed a handful of Benedict’s milk powder.
