Chapter 509 Eleanor walked out of the training center with her French book, only to see a group of suit wearing the sporting folks heading her way Berard had mentioned that hed send bodyguards to pick her up after class, so Eleanor assumed these were the guys She stayed put, not walking away, but then noticed a dude with a scar on his face leading the pack, and his expression wasnât too friendly âMs Shultz, do you know a Mr. Law?â
The name Mr Law made Eleanorâs heart race, and her hands holding the French book began to tremble Bernard had warned her that if Mr. Lawâs identity was revealed, heâd be in danger How did this guy know about Mr Law?
She clenched her fists forcing herself to calm down, and then put on a guarded face, âWho are you, and how do you know my name?â
Of course the guy wasnât going to tell her who he was. He replied, âAnswer me, do you know him or not?â
Eleanor was freaking out inside but tried to play it cool, Why should I respond to you when you wonât answer my question?â
She was being difficult and the guy got annoyed. âYou reported a crime at the police station and used the name Mr. Law, right?â
Eleanor turned pale. Did her reporting the crime expose Mr. Lawâs identity?
She gripped the book tightly, telling herself not to panic She pretended to be calm, âI remember now, that did happen.
âBut Iâve already made up with Mr. Night. He gave me a ton of money, so I let it go. Why hasnât the police station closed the case?â
Scarface furrowed his halfâshaved brow, suspiciously asking, Mr. Night? Not Mr. Law?â
She realized he didnât have the policeâs detailed information and only knew the name Mr. Law, Eleanor breathed a sigh of relief.
She looked at Scarface innocently, making stuff up. âYeah, Mr. Night. If you donât believe me, go ask him yourself.â
Mr. Night had an even worse reputation than Cedric. He was known for forcing women, and had been in and out of the police station several times.
Scarface obviously knew this, and although he was still suspicious, he hesitated when he saw Eleanorâs clueless expression.
Someone beside Scarface leaned in and whispered something to him. After, he gave Eleanor an upâandâdown look and then left with his crew Watching their car speed away, Eleanor finally loosened her sweaty grip on the book.
Worried theyâd come back if they sensed something fishy, Eleanor didnât wait for Bernardâs people to pick her up and hailed a cab instead.
Once in the car, she sent Bernard a message, warning him that someone had come asking about Mr. Law and to be careful.
Bernard was busy with an international designer picking out a diamond ring. He saw the message and his face darkened.
He immediately got up to leave the company. He called Eleanor while instructing Aidyn to get the car.
Eleanor saw the call and was worried the taxi driver would overhear âMr. Law,â so she took out her earphones.
As soon as she answered, Bernardâs worried voice came through, âEleanor, where are you? Iâm coming to get you.â
Eleanor replied. âTm on my way back to Haileyâs villa. You donât need to get me, Iâm fine. They just asked a few questions.â After explaining what happened, she heard Bernard tell Aidyn to deal with the bodyguards who didnât pick her up on time. Eleanor quickly defended them, âIt wasnât their fault. Our teacher had something come up, so class ended half an hour earlyâ Bernard firmly signaled Aidyn with his eyes to take care of it and then ordered, âSend twenty more bodyguards to protect her.â
Aidyn obeyed, âYes, Mr. Laurence.â
With everything arranged, Bernardâs cold voice turned gentle, âEleanor, tell me your license plate number.â
Eleanor reluctantly gave him the taxis plate number.
Twenty minutes later, over a dozen luxury cars blocked the taxi The taxi driver watched in awe as a man got out of a Koenigsegg sports car. He looked like a god descending from the heavens as he approached them.
Then, the man opened the back door, bent down, picked up the woman inside, and walked away.
The taxi driver rubbed his eyes, making sure he wasnât seeing things, then took out his phone, snapped a picture of the scene, and posted it online.
The news spread on the internet quickly, and various stories about âMr. Laurence and his little wifeâ started circulating.
Usually, news involving the CEO of the Laurence Group would be taken down immediately, but this time, no one was doing anything about it.
Netizens quickly speculated that this âlittle wifeâ might become the future Mrs. Laurence.
