Chapter 663 Here Comes Veronica (26)
Veronica's heart almost jumped out of her throat when she saw Stella's message.
Veronica grabbed Raymond's arm nervously and said anxiously, "Can you ask the driver to hurry up? Stella just sent me a message. Those people are looking for her. And they are about to find her. I have to get there as soon as possible. Otherwise, Stella will be in danger."
Although the speed of the car was already very fast, Raymond instructed the driver.
"Drive faster."
"Yes!"
After Raymond ordered, the driver stepped on the accelerator. The speed of the car was slightly faster than just now.
However, though the car was very fast, Raymond's villa was quite a distance away from the Walker's place. From Raymond's villa to the manor, even if the speed of the car was more than a hundred kilometers per hour, it would still take 20 minutes.
These 20 minutes were like a year for Veronica.
In those 20 minutes, Stella did not send any more messages. It made Veronica even more nervous. Along the way, Raymond's arm was almost bruised by Stella's fingers.
Seeing Veronica's nervous expression, Raymond did not get angry with her or stop her from pinching him.
When they finally arrived at the manor of the Walker family, the guards of the manor stopped Raymond's car. Raymond directly got out of the car and shouted at the guards, "I am Raymond. Let me in immediately."
Seeing that it was Raymond, the guards did not dare to stop the car. They immediately opened the door and let Raymond's car enter.
Seeing them open the door, Raymond quickly sat back in the car and let the driver drive the car to the house in the manor.
At this time, the party had already ended. Guests walked out of the house one after another.
When Quinton and Shermie walked out side by side, they were shocked when they saw Raymond help Veronica out of the car.
Because one of Raymond's arms was in a cast, he was unable to carry Veronica in his arms and could only carry her on his shoulder. So, they could enter the villa faster.
As he passed by Quinton and Shermie, Raymond seemed to have not seen them and directly walked past them.
Shermie raised an eyebrow.
"What happened? Hasn't Raymond left? Why is he back?"
Quinton was also curious.
In the past, when Raymond saw him walking side by side with Shermie, Raymond was always wary and nervous. He even wanted to draw a line between Quinton and Shermie. But today, Raymond ignored them.
Moreover, he was carrying a girl on his shoulder.
"The girl that Raymond carried on his shoulder just now is..." Quinton guessed that Raymond's strange behavior should have something to do with that girl.
"I know her!" Shermie said meaningfully, "In the future, maybe she will become my sister-in-law!"
"I see." Then, Quinton could understand why Raymond suddenly became like this. He looked meaningfully at Shermie beside him. "Shermie, look. You're going to graduate soon. Are we also..." Quinton looked at Shermie affectionately. Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Shermie.
"Yes, I'm graduating from university soon. But so what? I want to have a career. Or..." Shermie smiled slyly and said, "You can persuade my brother first!"
Quinton shut up.
If he had to persuade Raymond first before he got married, he felt that he might have to be unmarried for a lifetime.
At the same time, when Raymond carried Veronica into the villa, he met Edwin, who was sending off guests.
Seeing that Raymond was back, Edwin immediately walked to him.
"Raymond, the party is over. Why are you back so late?"
Raymond placed Veronica on the ground and grabbed Edwin by the collar with one hand. "It is all your fault."This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Suddenly being scolded by Raymond, Edwin was confused. Because Raymond grabbed his collar, his breathing became difficult. Edwin finally managed to remove Raymond's hand from his neck. He looked a Raymond while gasping for breath.
Edwin touched his throat and asked in a bad mood, "Raymond, what did I do? Let me know what I did. Don't be so rude."
Veronica grabbed Raymond's arm. "Mr. Cordova, now is not the time to talk about this. We must find Stella quickly."
Raymond turned to look at Veronica. "Call your classmate now."
"Okay, I'll call her immediately."
Veronica nodded and took out her phone to make a call.
They were in the villa. If those people were still looking for Stella, Veronica and Raymond would be able to save Stella in time.
When Veronica called Stella, Raymond briefly explained the situation to Edwin.
After hearing Raymond's words, Edwin was upset, and his expression suddenly changed.
"That old bastard! How dare he do this at my party? This is my party!" While curding, Edwin took out his phone to make a call. However, his phone was dead and turned off. "Damn it! It's out of power." Edwin had to go to the person in charge of the party.
While Edwin went to the person in charge, Veronica kept calling Stella.
Because Veronica was silent, Raymond frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
Veronica was so anxious that her eyes were red. She said anxiously, "Stella still hasn't answered the phone."
Veronica kept muttering to the phone, "Stella, answer the phone. Hurry up and answer the phone."
Veronica was so worried that she was about to cry.
As long as Stella picked up the phone, it meant that she was fine. If she did not pick up the phone, it was very likely that something had happened to her.
Veronica called Stella twice in a row, but the phone wasn't answered. She did not give up and continued to call Stella.
At the same time, Edwin had asked the person in charge of the scene and went back to Edwin and Veronica.
"I just went to ask the person in charge. About 20 minutes ago, that bastard Rex was looking for someone in the villa. The manager was afraid that something would go wrong, so he asked people to follow Rex's people. The manager was sure that Rex searched the villa but did not find anyone. Five minutes ago, Rex and his people left. And they didn't bring anyone with them," Edwin hurriedly said.
Stella was not taken away by Rex. Hearing the news, Veronica was relieved.
Stella should still be safe if she wasn't taken away by Rex.
However, just as Veronica relaxed, Edwin raised another possibility, saying, "But, in that case, Ms. Luke's classmate was drugged and might be dizzy. She may be taken away by others!"
