Chapter 283: Confronted by an Enemy
Imperial Crown Club—if Ella remembered correctly, it was owned by Sean.
Though this club didn’t have as many members or the influence of the Elite Horizon Club, it was still quite famous in S City.
Some second- and third-tier celebrities often came to these places to have fun. As for the Elite Horizon Club, that was off-limits to most people.
This whole scheme must be related to the Carter Group! Otherwise, how could Chloe have ended up in trouble here?
Ella rushed to Room 509 and twisted the doorknob, but it wouldn’t budge.
"Hurry, kick it open!" Ella shouted loudly.
The two bodyguards didn’t hesitate. They charged forward, and with two heavy kicks, they burst the door open!
Inside the room, chaos reigned. There were screams and laughter from both men and women, mixed with the sharp crying of a young girl, which made Ella’s heart clench.
She immediately saw the girl pinned to the sofa—it was Chloe!
"Stop it, you bastards!" Ella yelled. Her sudden appearance made the young man holding Chloe down lazily lift his head.
Chloe’s clothes were disheveled, but when Ella saw that her jeans were still on, she breathed a sigh of relief. Any later, and her innocence would’ve been...
"Well, well, another pretty face just showed up!" the young man sneered. His hair was dyed in bright colors, and though he wasn’t bad-looking, his wicked smirk and sleazy demeanor made Ella’s heart sink.
Who had Chloe gotten herself involved with?
Judging by the group of young men and women around, they looked like a bunch of lowlifes, thinking they could form some sort of gang.
"Hey boss, this one looks even better, right? Ha, go for her!"
"Didn’t expect that punk to get so lucky—two women at once, huh?"
"Ella..." Chloe sobbed harder when she saw Ella. Her face was full of fear and humiliation as she shakily pulled up her torn dress.
But the man sitting on her lap was still groping her without restraint.
"Bastard, let her go!" Ella’s eyes blazed with anger.
"Let her go? And who are you to her, huh? Mason said I could have her. Why are you getting in the way? Don’t tell me you’re lonely too and want a turn with me!"
The young man laughed lewdly, and the others joined in, mocking her.
At that moment, Chloe shook her head. "Mason wouldn’t do this to me! Let go of me!"
Ella gripped her phone tightly. She really wanted to slap that arrogant young man right across the face!
"Ah... don’t, please! Ella, save me!" The young man started to grope Chloe again, and Ella was about to explode with rage. She turned to the two strong bodyguards and shouted, "Get Miss Carter out of there now!"
The two bodyguards immediately pulled out tasers and took down the lowlifes trying to fight back.
Seeing this, the young man released Chloe and slowly backed away, a look of caution in his eyes.
Ella let out a breath of relief—Eric had hired some pretty competent bodyguards after all.
"Chloe, are you alright?" Ella rushed over and tightly embraced the sobbing Chloe.
"I... I’m okay, sobbing!" Chloe trembled as she curled up in Ella’s arms, crying uncontrollably. "I... I thought I was going to be ruined by those jerks... thank you, Ella!"
Ella’s heart was heavy, and her voice turned icy. "Where’s that jerk Mason?"
"I don’t know... I can’t reach him on the phone..."
"Who’s looking for me? What’s going on?" A voice rang out. Ella looked up coldly, meeting Mason’s sly, fox-like eyes.
Mason was back!
He saw the mess in the room and his face darkened immediately. His gaze shifted to the young man standing in the corner.
"You despicable bastard! Mason, are you trying to get Chloe killed?" Ella couldn’t suppress her fury. She knew Chloe too well. She was just like Eric’s mother—strong-willed and unyielding!
"So, it’s you. You actually managed to find me here?" Mason ignored Ella and spoke coldly.
The young man let out a sinister laugh. "Mr. Scott, you didn’t think I’d track you down here, did you? Now, tell me—which woman do you want to see survive?"
To Ella’s shock, the young man, pulled out a gun.
The dark muzzle of the gun was pointed straight at Ella and Chloe!
Ella took a deep breath, stunned. She never expected this thug to actually have a gun!
Mason’s eyes turned icy.
"Aaron, you’re asking for death," Mason said coldly. "Your woman threw herself at me. It wasn’t like I seduced her. Besides... a girl like her? Even if she ended up in my bed, I wouldn’t touch her! She dumped you, and now you hold a grudge against me?"
From this conversation, Ella quickly gathered that Mason had been fooling around and had somehow gotten involved with someone who didn’t back down easily.
Nowadays, brainless young men like Aaron were everywhere, always ready to fight over a woman.
Aaron Green sneered. "Mason! Don’t make yourself out to be so noble. If you hadn’t given her money, if you hadn’t intentionally seduced her, would she have dumped me? That bitch is just trying to climb the social ladder by being with you! But don’t think you can get away with this—I, Aaron, won’t let you live in peace!"
Ella took another deep breath.
Chloe just clung tightly to her, sobbing quietly.
She had been the precious gem of the Carter Group her whole life, never having faced such danger before.
"Let them go. If you want a real fight, come at me," Mason said calmly.
"Oh? Can’t make up your mind? If I were you, I’d choose the girl in the white dress!" Aaron said mockingly.
Ella was wearing the white dress, while Chloe, knowing Mason’s preference for bright colors, had deliberately worn a red, low-cut lace dress to please him.
Chloe trembled slightly at Aaron’s words.
Ella gently patted her back, signaling her to stay calm and not panic.
Having lived through a second lifetime, Ella wasn’t easily shaken. While situations like this were rare, nothing could compare to the shock, fear, and despair she had felt right before her death in her previous life.
"If you’re a real man, stop tormenting women like this!" Mason said coldly.
Ella’s two bodyguards began to move forward, but Aaron suddenly shouted, "Stay back! Or I’ll shoot!"
The two bodyguards exchanged a glance, clearly frustrated. They had been bodyguards for over a decade and had never allowed harm to come to their employer.
"Tell me, who do you want me to let go? Which one will you choose? The one in the white dress or the red one?" Aaron asked with an evil grin.
