Chapter 159
How did that happen? Charlie and Jessica were obviously on the same side. Stella fell into confusion.
“I’m going to rescue her. You rest in the ward.” With that, Brian was ready to leave.
With a sudden wave of courage, Stella grabbed his hand and said, “I’ll go with you.” She would like to find
out what was going on.
“You’re still sick-”
“I want to go!” Stella yelled angrily.
With a sigh, Brian held her hand. “Stay by my side. Don’t wander”
Stella followed Brian into the car in silence. On the way, Brian called the police and sent manpower to
Jessica’s kidnap spot.
Brians face was calm, his emotions unreadable. However, Stella could tell he was nervous from his chilly
gaze
Meanwhile, Jessica was tied up in the underground warehouse. In fact, Jessica provoked Charlie on
purpose.
Originally, she planned to ask Charlie out later and kill him secretly somewhere. Unfortunately, the matter
was exposed. In the end, she might as well anger Charlie and get Brian to rescue her
In this way, Charlie would commit the crime of kidnapping, and she could settle him in one go while
sitting back.
Jessica sat on the ground and reminded calmly, “Charlie, leave immediately and never return after getting
the money later. Otherwise, Brian won’t let you go.”
Charlie’s expression was grim. “I know, Ms. Xenos. You don’t have to remind me.”
“This matter was exposed because Brian’s wife, Stella, saw you. Brian won’t let you off if he hears your

Jessica glanced at him. I’ve told you Brian is not a fool. You can’t threaten him.“.
Charlie paced back and forth in panic. He didn’t ask for money at the cost of his life.
Jessica advised calmly, “Don’t panic. Listen to me. There is a door over there. Leave the ransom and run away for now.”
Turning around, Charlie indeed saw a door. “Ms. Xenos, why are you helping me?”
“You’ve been a driver for my family, after all. I can’t just watch you die.” Jessica looked kind–hearted
Anyway, her goal had been achieved. Whether or not Charlie died later, the one he held a grudge against would no longer be her but Stella.
In less than ten minutes, the warehouse door was smashed down. Brian rushed in with his bodyguards, only to see nobody in the warehouse.
The bodyguards searched around while Brian protected Stella. “Follow me closely
“Okay,” Stella’s face was solemn. She held onto Brian’s shirt, following his steady steps forward.
The bodyguards all had guns in their hands as if they were playing a shooter game. As it was her first time seeing such a scene, Stella was a little scared.
“Are you scared? Brian chuckled at her shaky hands.
“W–who is scared?” Stella stubbornly denied it.
“Why are you shaking if you’re not scared? I told you not to tag along.” Brian grabbed her waist. “Come clos
