Chapter 125

In the convenience store, the man in a cap edged closer to Peggy. His movements were eerily silent, like a ghost.

Meanwhile, Peggy was engrossed in selecting her preferred beverage and unaware of the looming danger. She

added the last bottle of her beloved orange soda to her basket and headed to the cashier.

The sudden close encounter made her scream, “Ah!”

She almost bumped faces with the man in the cap.

“What are you doing?” Peggy snapped and arched her eyebrows in displeasure.

The man responded with a smirk. Underneath the cap’s brim, his eyes gleamed with malice.

“What do you want from me?”

Despite trying to sound stern, Peggy's voice wavered slightly.

The man kept silent. His cap concealed his expression, showing only a chin with patchy stubble. He seemed to

be around 40 years old.

Peggy issued a warning.

“Stay back! I'm staying at the hotel next door. One shout and all the security guards will crunning.”

The man’s smirk only widened at Peggy's words. She realized then she was dealing with a creep. This cashier

was a thug. She prepared to call for security. The store was close to Caesar Hotel, which was constantly

surrounded by security guards.

The man suddenly spoke, “Ms. Lee, please cwith me.”

His voice was cold and hoarse. It was unsettling like dry bark scraping.

Peggy's eyes briefly flickered with fear. He knew her name. She figured that this was no ordinary

cashier.

Before Peggy could react, the man pressed a prepared handkerchief against her face. The chemical scent was

overpowering. Peggy's attempts to resist were in vain. Her consciousness quickly slipped away under the man’s

superior strength.

The man caught Peggy as she fell. His gaze lingered on her long legs. He hurriedly carried her out of the store

and into a black car. They drove off, disappearing from the hotel's surveillance.

Meanwhile, Cameron Jay in bed after his shower. He stared at the ceiling, deep in thought. He recalled the words

he had overheard in the hotel elevator.

“A woman wouldn't keep a photo or two unless he’s important to her.”

He contemplated if Laura still harbored feelings for him. He dismissed the thought. The memories of

their last encounter seven years ago were too vivid. He reckoned that she was feeling guilty, nothing

more.

Cameron decided to focus on his next move. He planned to draw out the mercenary leader to extract

information. This would sever his ties with Laura.

Just as he was about to hit the sack, his phone rang. It was Lena,

He answered the call, curious about her reason for calling at this hour.

Lena’s urgent voice cthrough.

“Cameron, Peggy has been kidnapped!”
