Chapter 708

Jimmy replied to her message? Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

Ariah went silent for a moment before she remembered that Camden took her phone away last night. Unable to hold back her curiosity, she asked, "What did he say?"

Putting down the teacup in his hand, Camden said, "He asked whether I bullied you."

"What else?" Hastily, she asked another question.

"I didn't reply to his message, but he called me," Camden told her the truth. "His tone changed after he heard my voice. He also threatened to kill me if I hurt you."

In an instant, Ariah's heart thumped wildly. "And? Did he say he's coming?"

Upon hearing that question, Camden kept silent. He squinted his eyes as he looked her up and down.

"Tell me!" Ariah started to grow anxious, "Is Jimmy coming or not? When is he coming? Can you give me back my phone?"

Ignoring her question, he said calmly, "I told him to come see me and bring Nicole with him. He agreed to it right away. Seems like he's afraid that

I might do something to you."

Ariah felt somewhat unpleasant. If Jimmy was afraid of her getting hurt, why didn't he pick up her call for the past few days?

As her thoughts were running through her mind, Camden spoke again. "Since Jimmy cares so much about you, I suddenly thought of a better idea to take revenge on him."

Ariah had a bad feeling about what he was going to say.

Sure enough, the next second, Camden got up and approached her. He lifted her chin and said, "What if I take you away from here so that Jimmy can't find you no matter how hard he tried..."

"Don't you dare!"

Before he could finish his sentence, Ariah interrupted him angrily, "If you do this, you will never see Nicole again!"

"I will lose her, but I have you now. It's quite a good deal."

Ariah was dumbfounded. What did he just say?

He must be crazy!

Looking at her pale face, Camden felt satisfied for some reason. Jimmy, who Nicole was longing to see, was the man who worked undercover with her back then.

Years ago, the Reeves Family suffered a major setback, and Jimmy was involved in taking his family down. If not for the fact that Camden's family sent him abroad, he would have been sent to prison.

Enraged, he took Nicole away, confined her, and tormented her every day because he wanted her to pay the price for what happened in the past.

However, Jimmy suddenly appeared and took Nicole away when he was not done torturing her yet. That enraged him even more.

At first, he wanted to get things over by asking Jimmy to bring Nicole back to him. Now, he suddenly thought that it would be more torturing, both physically and mentally for Jimmy, if he took Ariah

away. Moreover, he could also use this method to take revenge on Jimmy for what he did to his family back then.

At the same time, he could teach Jimmy a lesson, letting him know that he would have to pay the price for taking away his belongings, be it women or any items.

The more Camden thought about it, the more excited he became. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly. Looking at Ariah, who was unhappy, he said in a low voice, Tve been staying with Nicole for so many years, and I'm starting to get sick of her, so I don't mind Jimmy taking her away. But the thought of playing around with Jimmy's first love then his current wife excites me. After all, this is the greatest shame a man can know."

Ariah spat at him, "You're a lunatic! If you have the guts, meet Jimmy face to face and get things straight. How can you call yourself a man when you only know how to play dirty?!"

Ariah was furious. She did not expect Camden would have such an evil heart.

On the other hand, Camden was not pissed off at all. Instead, he chuckled and said, "Do you want me to prove whether I'm a man to you now?"

Ariah was left speechless.

Glaring at him, she could not utter a single word. What a disgusting man!

Right when she was about to speak, a sudden bang sounded across the room. It was as though the roof was going to be blown off. Even the ground seemed to be shaking.

"Someone is attacking us!"

"Get ready!"

"Bang!

Hearing the shouts of the bodyguards outside the door, Camden's face turned dark. He was about to grab Ariah when another bang echoed around the house, and the next second, the crystal chandelier above his head crashed to the ground, kicking up a puff of dust. Ariah was thrown to the ground, almost losing her breath.

Gunshots rang outside the house.

Gritting her teeth, she struggled to find shelter. She squirmed to the corner like a caterpillar. Only then did she see Camden, who was lying on the ground after a cabinet landed on him.

Gasping for air, she felt her mind buzzing.

What was going on?

Ariah tried her best to find a way out. She could not go through the main door and second floor. It seemed like she could only escape through the back door.

Camden was hurt amidst the chaos, so he had enough on his plate. His bodyguards' were all focused on him, and no one paid attention to her what she was doing.

Bullets flew back and forth in the fierce confrontation. Gritting her teeth, Ariah got up and ran out of the back door immediately.

Camden's angry voice could be heard coming from behind. "Don't let her run away!"

Instantly, a bodyguard caught up to her and grabbed her. Ariah screamed and struggled with all her strength. The bodyguard tried to bring her back to the house, but suddenly, a clang rang out, and the bodyguard collapsed to the ground.

Ariah was dumbfounded.

Throwing away the bottle in his hand, Felipe pulled Ariah. "What are you waiting for? Let's go!"

They finally stopped after running for some time.

"What are you doing here?" Ariah could not believe who she was seeing.

"Well, hello." Felipe pulled her down as they hid behind a bush. Smiling, he said, "Didn't expect to see me here, huh?"

Indeed, Ariah did not expect to see Felipe here. After a long while, she finally spoke, "What are you doing here?"

"I came to save you. I saw the text message you sent me last night." Looking around and seeing that no one was following them, Felipe breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank god you're fine."

Ariah could not think straight. "You... you came alone?"

"Of course not. I don't have the guts to do that." Sitting on the ground, he continued, "Jimmy said that I'm good at being sneaky, so he wanted me to sneak into the house first and work side to side with him. They'll storm the house while I bring you out from Camden's house. Thank god I didn't fail. This is the first task that Boss had assigned me."

After saying that, he saw Ariah's hands still bound in rope. Immediately, he untied her. "Let's get out of here first. There is a car waiting for us. Jimmy told me to take you away from this place after rescuing you."

Ariah stumbled because of his pull, "Wait, wait..."

"What are you waiting for?"

"First, you need to tell me who else is in there other than Jimmy?" Ariah pointed at Camden's villa from a distance. They were so far away, yet the sounds of gunshots could still be clearly heard. She was extremely worried. "Camden has a lot of bodyguards. Will Jimmy be in danger if there's no one there to help him out?"
