Chapter 632
Ariana was taken aback by her own musings, yet swiftly dismissed them.
No, it was impossible.
Holden bore no animosity towards her, and they shared no grievances.
He would never stoop to such actions.
Then who could it be? Could it be related to Holden in any way? The Fredrick family?
Meanwhile, the voices outside showed no signs of abating, and one of them was still deliberating.
“So, what should we do?”
After a brief silence, another voice chimed in, “Isn’t there a certain bitch celebrity lying downstairs? She appears to be that famous superstar.
”
Laughter, filled with vulgarity, erupted from outside the door.
“It’s that renowned star.
I believe I’ve come across her nude photos.
She must be quite skilled.
We didn’t come here for nothing.
We might as well enjoy ourselves.
”
Their words caused Ariana’s heart to skip a beat.
She promptly rose to her feet, her face drained of color and her entire body quivering from the cold.
Damn it, they had Sarah in their grasp! She had assumed Sarah had managed to escape, but little did she expect that Sarah, too, had fallen into the clutches of these individuals!
Eavesdropping on the conversation outside, Ariana’s heart began to race.
She pressed herself against the door, trying to catch every word, praying that their intention to trick her into leaving was merely a ruse.
Outside, a man named Mike Campbell, tall and intimidating with a prominent scar on his forehead, was leading a group.
In a gruff voice, he ordered the man beside him, “Jack, get that big celebrity from downstairs.
I’ll keep an eye on the girl here.
”
“Right away, boss.
” Jack Ortega nodded, and then quickly strode off.
After a short while, Ariana heard heavy footsteps outside the room, followed by a dull thud, as if a large object had been carelessly thrown to the floor.
Could it be Sarah?
Ariana’s heart thumped in her chest.
She strained her ears for more.
Mike’s voice pierced the silence.
“Wake her up!” he bellowed loudly.
A sharp, loud smack resounded through the hallway, making Ariana jump.
Then she heard a familiar stifled groan.
It was unmistakably Sarah!

Ariana’s body started shaking uncontrollably.
Her body was gripped with terror, and she held her breath, trying to listen to the scene unfolding outside.
Upon regaining consciousness, Sarah found herself enveloped in darkness.
As she moved, she realized her mouth was gagged with a piece of cloth and her hands were bound behind her.
A memory flashed – she was searching for a flashlight when she heard someone approaching.
Mistaking the person for Ariana, she was about to chastise her when a sudden blow to the back of her head knocked her unconscious.
This realization sent waves of fear through Sarah, who began to whimper and squirm.
Observing her, Mike grabbed her hair and yanked her upwards.
Sarah instinctively groaned and struggled against his grip.
