257 Two Hours Left

Feeling so excited to find Ella, Liam was completely unaware that he was being followed from behind.

When he arrived at the mental hospital, Liam immediately parked the car and walked to the nearby hotel anxiously.

Christian was sitting in his black car, surprised to see where Liam is headed. He didn’t expect Ella to come back to that place again.

He knew so well Ella’s fear of this place that this place didn’t even count in his calculations. Ella was afraid of even just one doctor, let alone going back to the place that had imprisoned her for five years.

But now Christian understands. Since Ella knew that Christian would not think of this place, that was why she chose to return to this place.

“Damn it,” Christian slammed his car’s door furiously. After that, he got out of the car.

The bodyguard who brought Christian was surprised to see his master’s anger suddenly explode. He’s a little hesitant as to whether he should follow Christian or not, but the man is out of his sight.

Liam entered a small hotel and asked the receptionist. The woman at the front desk shook her head firmly. “We have rules here. Guests who come only need to pay and we won’t ask any more questions.”

Liam frowned and immediately ran upstairs.

.....

Not long after, Christian also comes and asks the same question. The woman at the front desk felt a little dizzy. Why are there so many handsome men coming today?

Will this small hotel be acquired by a big company? Looks like they’re going to be famous! The woman’s mind danced wildly at the thought of her showering in money.

Christian gets annoyed and repeats his question again. The woman wakes up from her daydream and immediately says, “Just now, a guy asked the same thing...”

Christian ignores her and runs upstairs, following Liam.

Liam knocked on the doors one by one, searching for Ella’s room. In the small hotel, there are only a few rooms so it doesn’t take long to check everything.

When he was about to open another room, the door was suddenly kicked with a bang.

Liam turns his head in surprise and sees Christian’s face. His gaze was immediately filled with hatred as he realized who was following him.

Christian doesn’t have time to take care of Liam right now. He went straight into the last room.

Unfortunately, the room was empty.

The room still left the faint scent of Ella’s perfume.

“She’s here,” Christian said, clenching his fists tightly.

Ella had just been in this room.

Knowing that he didn’t find Ella there, Christian immediately turned and grabbed the collar of the man behind him. “You know where she went, right?”

“If I had known, do you think I would have come here to look for her?”

Liam was still gasping for air from running to check the rooms one by one. He looked at Christian coldly. His face was full of anger. “If not for you, how could Ella suffer like this!”

“What the hell do you know about our relationship!” Christian shouted. He himself knew what he had done to Ella. But when someone else mentioned it right in his face, Christian felt a thorn pierce his heart.

“She came to me!” Christian continued.

It was Ella who did everything she could to be by Christian’s side, but now she was the one who suddenly left. How can Christian accept all this?

He didn’t want to lose Ella! He didn’t want Ella to leave him!

After losing someone, only by then did they feel how important that person was in their life. Christian even regretted why he had to go to work yesterday. If he hadn’t gone to work, Ella wouldn’t have a chance to leave him.

Liam felt even more angry when he heard what Christian had to say.

“Right. It was Ella who came to you. It was Ella who approached you first. Even so...” Liam took a deep breath. “Even so, you shouldn’t mistreat Ella that way!”

Liam saw with his own eyes how Christian treated the woman he loved. How could he accept it?

That sentence made Christian’s brow furrow. “I treated her very well.”

Christian only knew that he had never treated a woman as well as he had treated Ella. Plus, he had already given so much to Ella.

“If you treat her well, why would she leave?”

Liam clenched his fists tightly and immediately threw it into Christian’s face. Christian didn’t want to show his weakness and beat Liam back.

The two of them were fighting because of one person who had just disappeared.

As soon as Christian’s bodyguard caught up, he saw the chaos that had ensued. The two men who used to be so calm but now they were so worried.

“Master...” the bodyguard was stunned for a moment. But it didn’t take long for him to snap out of his mind and act professional. He immediately pulled Liam’s body away from his master.

Liam’s gaze is fixed on Christian. There was reluctance in his eyes. “Ella is gone now. I hope you don’t bother her anymore. She is different from the women who have chased you.”

It was true that Ella was different from all those women. Otherwise, how could Christian be attracted to her?

“What’s your business interfering with my relationship with Ella?” Christian looked at Liam coldly.

He didn’t want another man to mention Ella’s name, his woman’s name. It made him remember that the man in front of him had a past with Ella.

It seemed he was the only one who was a stranger in Ella’s life. He had only known Ella for a few months.

And before he could get to know Ella more deeply, the woman had disappeared from his side.

“Let go of me,” Liam said to Christian’s bodyguard who held him. “And tell your master to think things through.”

Liam freed himself from Christian’s guard. He rubbed his wrist and left from there.

He had no intention of fighting Christian, while Ella was still missing and nowhere to be found.

After Liam left the hotel, Christian asked out of the blue. “What time is it?”

Christian’s bodyguard was taken aback by the sudden question. He immediately checked his watch and said, “It’s 2 pm, sir.”

Yesterday, Christian arrived at his house at four in the afternoon.

He still had two hours.

Christian didn’t want to withdraw his words. But he also didn’t want to lose Ella. Right now, the only thing he could do was look for Ella.

“Go all the way and check the CCTV. No matter what happens, we have to find her.”
