Chapter 2179: Chapter 2188: Damn It, I Can’t Reach Her

Adam Sinclair reacted quickly, grabbing him and trying to calm him down, "Baron, don’t rush, let her explain. What if it’s just a misunderstanding?"

"You better say it quickly," he said to Joanne Harrison.

If she didn’t speak soon, he feared Baron would lose control and strangle her.

Baron Lawrence’s heart was roiling with turmoil, but he still managed to control himself and released his grip.

Joanne dared not delay, ignoring the discomfort of her collar choking her throat, she told what she knew in broken words, "Just now when I was passing through the hotel lobby, I happened to see Mrs. Lawrence entering the elevator. At first, I didn’t think much of it, but then because..."

She paused, unsure how to say that she thought of President Lawrence’s help to her that afternoon. Seeing Enna Clark enter the elevator, she hesitated about whether to follow, to see if Enna needed her help. If she did, she could lend a hand, which could repay a bit of President Lawrence’s kindness from that afternoon.

As a result, while standing in front of the elevator hesitating...

"I was just standing in front of the elevator, about to use it myself. I was about to press the elevator button when I suddenly heard a sound of the elevator shaking from inside. Then, the floor indicator on the elevator display paused briefly, and then continued to show the floors. I don’t know why, but I still felt a bit strange at that time, so I pressed the elevator button. I waited for ten minutes, but the display on the elevator never showed it stopping at the 1st floor, instead, it moved from the 2nd floor to the 3rd and 4th, but never the 1st floor."

"So I suspect that Mrs. Lawrence might be in some kind of danger."

"Because that elevator seemed perfectly normal, but it just wouldn’t stop at the 1st floor, the more it seemed like this, the more uneasy I felt."

Joanne tried her best to recount what she had encountered calmly, then looked at the people present, "I was just speculating, so..."

Originally, this thing had nothing to do with her, she shouldn’t have come.

But she thought of how President Lawrence had helped her in the afternoon, and she couldn’t be ungrateful.

If Mrs. Lawrence was fine, and she was just overthinking it, that would be best.

If Mrs. Lawrence really was in trouble, informing President Lawrence in time could be considered as repaying him.

Joanne told herself this, but her hands were clenched into fists in nervousness, her nails digging into her flesh without her realizing it.

She was scared.

Afraid that she was indeed overthinking, yet also unwilling to see Enna Clark truly in trouble.

A struggle between self-preservation and the hope that Enna was safe roiled in her heart, leaving her emotions unsettled.

Baron Lawrence listened to her finish, his face turned to the ugliest shade. His face was ashen as he ignored everyone around him, taking out his phone and walking to the side.

Damn it!

Enna Clark...

Enna Clark...

"Buzz... buzz..." The static sound of the phone echoed.

It felt like an invisible string was pulling his heart, lifting it up. The feeling was like his heart had an incurable disease, unbearably painful.

Finally.

The phone beeped at the other end.

"Enn..."

"Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable. We will notify the user by SMS later."

Enna Clark’s phone is unreachable?

Baron Lawrence’s neck felt like it was being strangled, he really couldn’t breathe!
