BXBX NOVEL Chapter 628: When Did You Wake Up?
“Mr. McDonald, do you have any orders?”
Carlos asked Connor in a low voice after he entered the room.
“Joey knows my phone number and my voice. If 1 call him, he will definitely find out that it’s me and my identity will be exposed,” Connor muttered. “So I want you to call Joey Shaw now and tell him that you kidnapped Rachel. Let’s see how he will react…”
Carlos nodded when he heard Connor’s words. Then, he took out his phone and dialed Joey’s number.
“Ding, ding, ding!”
The phone rang twice before Joey picked it up and asked in a low voice, “Who is it?”
“You don’t need to know who I am now. You only need to know that Rachel Wallace is in my hands. If you want her to live, prepare 5 million in cash for me immediately. After you prepare the money, I will tell you where we can make a deal…” Carlos said in a low voice.
“Rachel is in your hands?”
After Joey heard the word Rachel, his tone clearly became agitated.
“That’s right. Rachel is in my hands now. If you don’t believe me, I can take a few photos for you!” Carlos repeated softly.
“Young man, are you tired of living? How dare you kidnap Rachel? Do you know who she is?” Joey shouted angrily.
Carlos and Connor were stunned when they heard Joey’s words.
Sure enough, just as Connor thought, Joey did know Rachel. Moreover, from Joey’s tone, he seemed very angry about this matter. This was enough to prove that Rachel was very important to him.
After Connor heard what Joey said, he looked down at Rachel with an incredulous expression on his face.
He had never thought that the person who had helped him behind the scenes was actually her, nor did he expect her background to be so terrifying—a single phone call from her was enough to mobilize a big shot like Joey to help.
Although Connor already knew that Rachel was the person who helped him back then, this made Connor even more curious. Who exactly was Rachel? Why did it have such a large amount of energy?
However, just as Connor was still shocked by Rachel’s identity, he suddenly felt a chill on his back.
Connor was stunned for a moment before he hurriedly turned his head to look behind him.
Then, he was immediately stunned on the spot.
Rachel had actually woken up.
At this moment, she was holding a pistol in her hand.
The cold muzzle was aimed at Connor’s head. At this time, as long as Rachel gently pulled the trigger, the bullet would shoot through Connor’s head.
Connor looked at Rachel with a dull expression. For a moment, he actually did not know what to say. The expression on his face also began to become nervous.
Carlos was also stunned on the spot. He stammered to Rachel, “Put the gun down!”
“Put the gun down?”
Rachel could not help but smile faintly when he heard Carlos’s words. Then, she said to Carlos softly, “I know you’re skilled, but I advise you not to make a move. If you do anything, I’ll kill him!”
Carlos could tell that Rachel was very skilled in holding the gun, which meant that she might really shoot Connor.
Therefore, he hurriedly said to Rachel, “Don’t be rash. I won’t make a move…” “That’s good…” Rachel lightly smiled. After which, she softly said to Connor, “Little Connor, I helped you back then.And yet now you’re actually biting the hand that fed you and kidnapped me. I’m sad…”
“Ms. Wallace, when did you wake up?” Connor stammered as he asked Rachel.
“I’m not unconscious at all. I was just acting just now. I just wanted to see who kidnapped me and what they wanted to do to me…” Rachel replied indifferently. After Connor heard Rachel’s words, the expression on his face was unusually helpless. He had never thought that Rachel had been pretending to be unconscious all along, and that he had actually been played by her again.
On the other end of the phone, Joey shouted excitedly after hearing Rachel’s voice, “Ms. Wallace, are you alright?”
Because Joey’s voice was relatively loud, Connor and Rachel could also hear what he was saying.
Rachel extended her right hand to Carlos and said softly, “Give me the phone…” Carlos hesitated for a moment, then quickly passed his phone to Rachel.
Rachel took the phone and said softly, “Commander Shaw, you don’t have to worry. The person who kidnapped me is Connor McDonald. I’m no longer in danger…”
Rachel knew very well that if she didn’t explain things clearly to Joey now, it was very likely that Joey would directly get his subordinates to find her. At that time, it would not be good for anyone if the matter blew up.
“Ms. Wallace, are you really okay?”
Joey asked nervously.
“Don’t worry. If I say it’s fine, it’s fine…” Rachel replied indifferently.
“It’s good that you’re fine, but why did Connor kidnap you?” Joey asked in confusion.
“What else could it be? It’s all because he wants to know my identity. He called you just now to test you…” Rachel said softly.
“Did I say something wrong just now?” Joey asked helplessly.
“Not really. After all, you don’t know what’s going on either…Alright, I won’t talk to you anymore. I’ll hang up first!”
Rachel replied indifferently and then hung up the phone.
After hanging up, Rachel threw the phone in front of Carlos, who picked it up immediately.
“You can leave first. I have something to tell Connor…”
Rachel said to Carlos expressionlessly.
A hint of hesitation flashed across Carlos’s eyes when he heard that. He was worried that Connor would be in danger, so he did not want to leave.
“Don’t worry, I won’t hurt Connor…” Rachel said as she put away her weapon.
Carlos glanced at Connor worriedly. Connor winked at him, signaling not to worry.
Although his relationship with Rachel was somewhat complicated, they were definitely not enemies. If Rachel really wanted to deal with Connor, then she wouldn’t have asked Joey to calm down, so Connor also believed that Rachel wouldn’t hurt him..
