Chapter 260 Escaping From the Hotel
Who could it be?
Amelie was filled with doubt because the text message didn’t provide a name or address.
After about ten minutes, her phone rang again when she let her guard down.
She quickly opened the message and saw that it contained the address.
[Have you decided? I have other more exciting news. If you don’t want to be known by others, come to Starry Night Bar.]
She had a foreboding feeling after reading the message.
This person was most likely the one who took pictures of her that day.
He was now threatening her so blatantly, and she suspected he already had a plan in mind.
If she didn’t go, he might spread even more horrible rumors about her.
Amelie thought it over and decided not to tell Lamont about this message.
She didn’t want to depend on him for everything, especially given that their relationship was already awkward. If she had to rely on him for this, it would only further complicate things in the future.
With that in mind, she picked up her phone and called Rex.
She couldn’t easily come up with 400 thousand on her own, so she needed to seek Rex’s help to solve this problem.
As soon as Amelie answered the phone, she heard his anxious voice.
“You finally called me. What’s wrong? Why didn’t you tell me when you were in trouble? Where are you now? I’ll come and pick you up. Don’t stay at the hotel. It’s dangerous.”
Rex said, expressing his immediate concern for Amelie and his desire to take her away from the hotel.
“Rex, there’s no need to panic right now. Do you have 400 thousand dollars? Can you give it to me as soon as possible?”
“400 thousand?”
Rex was surprised, “What do you need the money for? What’s going on? You can’t keep this from me.”
Faced with Rex’s series of questions, she had no choice but to tell him the truth.
“You’re out of your mind. Do you seriously believe that giving money to this person will stop them from leaking the information online?” Rex exclaimed.
“I know my idea may sound naive, but it’s the only way to get to him. Once I see him, I can take care of it. Rex, please help me out. 400 thousand dollars shouldn’t be a problem for you.”
“It’s not a problem, but I can’t let you take this risk. You stay in the hotel, and I’ll come over. We’ll face this together.”
Rex was determined, and Amelie had no choice but to accept.
After hanging up the phone, she started packing her things.
Within ten minutes, Rex arrived at the hotel’s entrance.
The lobby was already crowded with reporters. Chapter 260 Escaping From the Hotel

They were waiting for Amelie to show up and get the latest scoop.
Fortunately, the director had warned her not to leave her room, preventing a more chaotic situation.
Not long after, Rex arrived at Amelie’s door and knocked.
He had been cautious on the way, afraid of running into (papara zzi ).
Thankfully, his vigilance paid off and he went unnoticed.
Amelie opened the door, and Rex quickly walked in.
“There are reporters downstairs right now, it’ll be difficult for you to leave. I suggest you don’t handle this. Just give me the address, and I’ll go there myself,” Rex advised Amelie.
“Rex, I’m still worried. Let me go with you, in case of…”
Amelie was interrupted by Rex before she finished her sentence.
“You stay here. There are reporters outside now. How do you plan to go out? I won’t feel at ease if something happens
to you.”
Reluctantly, Amelie nodded in agreement.
After Rex got the address, he prepared to leave.
However, Amelie’s phone rang again at this time.
She got another text message.
The content of the text message shocked her.
“What’s wrong?”
Amelie handed her phone to Rex.
“Rex, he asked me to go there. It seems that I have to go out.”
Rex’s face turned sour upon reading the message.
“This person is likely not simple, and may even be someone close to you.
“But now is not the time to think about that. If it’s the case, then I’ll figure out a way to get you out of here.”
Rex handed her the phone and made a call on the side.
In less than ten minutes, several security guards arrived downstairs, attempting to disperse the reporters.
However, the reporters were not easily swayed. Despite the security’s efforts, they remained persistent.
Amelie watched the scene anxiously from the window.
“Rex, why don’t we go through the underground parking lot?”
“You’re thinking too simply. There might be (papara zzi ) down there too. If we go out now, we’ll definitely be photographed.”
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Belen’s voice came from outside.
Amelie quickly opened the door and Belen hurriedly walked in.
“Amelie, Mr. Byron called me and told me to take you to the underground parking lot now. He said he will take you out
of here.”
“Now?”
“Yes! It seems that Mr. Byron has cleared the underground parking lot. There are no (papara zzi )there, so we can leave
sately.”
Upon hearing this, Amelie breathed a sigh of relief.
She didn’t expect Lamont to have such great connections.
“Rex, shall we go to the underground parking lot?”
Rex hesitated a bit. Although he was not pleased with Lamont, he had to admit that Lamont had handled this situation well. He had appeared in time to protect Amelie, leaving Rex with nothing to say.
“Let’s go.”
In the end, he only said two words.
The three of them then took the elevator.
Soon they reached the underground parking lot. As soon as they stepped out of the elevator, Amelie noticed that the entire parking lot was heavily secured. Lamont had arranged for guards to watch over all the entrances and exits, preventing anyone from entering.
“Amelie, I never thought Mr. Byron would be so considerate towards you. He came up with this method to make sure that you wouldn’t be surrounded by reporters here.”
Belen said, carefully looking at Rex.
She naturally knew that Lamont was not well-liked in front of Amelie’s family, so she tried her best to speak well of
Mr. Byron.
“He did show his concern, but this whole situation was caused by him in the first place, so it’s only right that he takes
responsibility for it.”
Rex said coldly.
Just then, a car pulled over to the side and a driver got out.
“Ms. Mullen, we were sent by Mr. Byron to pick you up.”
“Let’s get in the car.”
Amelie didn’t refuse and looked at Rex before pulling him into the car with her.
The car was well-protected, and it was impossible to see inside from the outside.
Amelie felt very safe.
Finally, when they came out of the underground parking lot, their car did not attract any attention. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
