Chapter 248
GuesRoom
Guest Room
A few minutes ago, Zoey figured that it was about time, so she dragged Samuel along with her and. gathered a few guests. With the excuse of taking them to see a precious painting, she brought them to the guest room behind the hall. Zoey led them and stopped at the door of a guest room
She didn't see Lucille and Joanne in the banquet hall, so she figured that Joanne must have already succeeded.
In other words, Lucille had gotten tricked and was probably the incense...
dirty and unsightly things after inhaling
There was a flash of joy in Zoey's eyes over the success. She turned to look at the crowd and said with smile, "Here it is. The painting inside is part of my father's prized collection. I hope we can all admire it together."
Zoey took the room card that she had tricked the front desk into giving her and unlocked the door.
In order not to give the people inside any time to react, Zoey pushed the door open vigorously.
It was time for everyone to feast their eyes.
They could witness how shameless Lucille was!
A sneer appeared on Zoey's face.
However, after getting a clear look at the situation in the room, Zoey was stunned. Samuel and the other guests who had followed closely behind were dumbstruck as well.
On the big bed, an old man passed out.
At the bedside, Joanne's clothes were in disarray and she was sobbing her eyes out. Her thin shoulders were trembling and she was shaking from head to toe Everyone was dumbfounded.
Hadn't Zoey said that they were going to see a painting? What was going on?
The guests could tell what was going on from the scene alone.
At that moment, Samuel served as a wake-up call.
He walked inside in disbelief and shouted, "Joanne?"
"Samuel..."
Joanne cried even harder and her voice was hoarse. She was as pitiful as could be.
Samuel immediately took off his suit jacket and covered Joanne tightly. Then, he turned his head and threatened the guests coldly, "Get out. None of you have seen what happened today. If anyone dares to spread what happened, the Gilbert family will hunt you down!" The guests did not dare to go against the Gilbert family. They quickly agreed and fled.
Samuel made another phone call, and several bodyguards in black immediately rushed into the room.
Samuel pointed to the unconscious man on the big bed and ordered, "Throw him out and sliced him into pieces!"
The bodyguards answered, "Yes, Mr. Samuel!TM
Guest Room
Soon, the man had been carried out by the bodyguards. In the large room, only Samuel and Joanne were left. Zoey was also standing at the end of the bed, and her expression kept changing.
How could this be? How could this have happened?
Wasn't Lucille supposed to be in the room?
Zoey's nails dug into her flesh, and her brows were tightly knitted.
She had come up with the idea of bringing Samuel and a few other guests to see a painting. However, in the end, she showed them Joanne and a man in disheveled clothes, who were in the same room together. Even if nothing had happened, if word got out, it would have a great impact on Joanne and the rest of the Gilbert family.
Moreover, since Samuel valued his precious sister so much, it was inevitable that he would vent his anger on her...
Zoey rushed over with a worried look on her face. Choked with sobs, she asked, "Joanne, how are you? Are you okay?"
Ignoring her, Joanne threw herself into Samuel's arms and burst into tears.
"I was terrified, Samuel. Sob, sob..."
"All right, all right. It's okay now. Don't cry. I won't let anyone hurt you as long as I'm around!"
