Captive Hearts: The Tycoon's Ugly Bride

Chapter 59 Why Are You Here?

Chapter 59 Why Are You Here?

Suppressing her anger, Blanche shut her mouth in annoyance.

"No problem? You don't have to worry at all. With so many wealthy businessmen here, as long as you hook up with one, you'll live a luxurious life. What does the membership fee matter?"

Blanche had a signature smile. How did he conclude that she was here to hook up with wealthy businessmen?

After coming out, Blanche sighed with frustration and tapped her forehead.

But in other words, there must be a reason why this place was so expensive.

Blanche looked around and noticed that it was still daylight outside, but the hotel was brilliantly lit. The corridors were winding and there were seven floors in total, with countless rooms.

Finding Henry would be difficult.

Blanche entered the elevator and pressed the button for the top floor.

Based on her speculation, the Herbart family had immense power and their people naturally had noble identities. Coming here, they would definitely choose the most expensive top-floor room.

Upon reaching the top floor corridor, Blanche felt lost. The corridor was empty. After walking a few steps forward, Blanche stopped and pushed the door next to her, but it didn't budge. She leaned in to listen but couldn't hear anything. The soundproofing was too good.

Blanche stepped back and stood in the empty corridor, unsure of what to do.

Just then, the door of a room in front of the corridor opened, and Blanche immediately looked over, only to see Henry coming out. She quickly chased after him.

After Henry came out, he had just entered the restroom when Blanche rushed in and almost bumped into him.

He turned around and was shocked. "Blanche?"

Blanche straightened out her messy hair and put on a big smile.

"Henry, what a coincidence. You are here too."

"We meet in the men's restroom. Are you sure it's a coincidence?" Henry said coldly.

The words "men's restroom" echoed in Blanche's mind and immediately alerted her. She looked to the side. Sure enough, there was a row of clean urinals. Blanche blushed in an instant.

However, Blanche was determined and forced a smile.

"I made a mistake, but it's okay. I have something to discuss with you. Although this is the men's restroom, there's no one here, so it won't be a problem. I want to talk to you about my grandmother's illness."

Huh?

Blanche noticed that Henry didn't listen to her at all. Instead, he unfastened his belt and was about to pee.

"If you want to watch me pee, I don't mind."

Blanche was speechless.

At the same time, a man walked out from one of the stalls and was startled when he saw Blanche. Blanche's face turned red with embarrassment and she quickly turned around and ran out of the restroom.

"Henry, I'll wait for you outside."

As soon as Blanche ran out, the man who had just come out of the stall also walked out, looking at her with a shocked and speechless face.

Blanche wished she could run away, covering her blushing face with her hands.

When Henry came out, he saw Blanche covering her face tightly with her hands. To stand at the entrance of the men's restroom waiting for him, she could even cover her face. What a stubborn woman.

"You're the most shameless woman I've ever met."

Henry's voice was cold, and Blanche slowly removed her hand, her face still red.

She said without shame, "You're overpraising me, Henry."

After saying that, Blanche took out a few papers from her bag and handed them over. These were her grandmother's medical records.

"Henry, please take a look."

"Whose medical records?" Henry didn't take them, only giving a brief glance at the contents.

"These are my grandmother's medical records. She has a tumor in her brain, and if she doesn't undergo surgery, she will die soon. The attending physician told me that the tumor in my grandmother's brain is very complicated. If not careful, she might die on the operating table. Only

you have performed a similar surgery before. I beg you, Henry, to perform the surgery for my grandmother."

Blanche was sincere and pleading, but the next moment, she only heard a cold snort.

"I have no interest in looking at these medical records."

"I can pay any amount of money. I know you have the ability to perform the surgery for my grandmother."

"In light of your sincerity, I can tell you that I can indeed perform this surgery. However, there's no such thing as a free lunch in this world, and you don't have anything to exchange with me."

Blanche frowned. He needed something to exchange.

"I will pay for the surgery. No matter how much you need, I can give it all."

Blanche noticed that the more she spoke, the more contemptuous the expression on Henry's face became. Therefore, her voice was lower and lower because money was the last thing Henry lacked. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

"Bang."

It was a sudden sound that came from a room, not too loud but very abrupt. Blanche felt like her soul had left her.

"What was that sound?"

Blanche had a premonition that it was a gunshot, but it didn't sound obvious because of the well- insulated room. She looked around vigilantly.

Henry narrowed his sharp eyes, turned around, and quickly walked towards a door, opening it and going inside.

Blanche immediately followed him, but the door had already been closed by him. She pulled on the door, but it didn't budge, and it was locked from the inside.

Blanche's heart was in her throat, and the door suddenly opened and someone walked out, kicking it shut behind him.

"What are you doing here?"

"Why are you here?"

Both of them spoke almost simultaneously. The person who came out was none other than Louis, which surprised Blanche. Why was he also here? Louis's face was tense and he didn't seem to be all right.

"What happened inside?"

"Who told you to come here? Come with me."

While Louis urged Blanche, he grabbed her hand and his expression turned cold. He quickly walked towards the exit, with hurried footsteps chasing behind them. From the sound, there were at least five or six people.

"Capture him. Bah! Since he dares to fight with me, I'll kill him."

Blanche didn't know what was happening, but from the situation, she realized that it was not safe to stay there for long.

However, Blanche noticed that Louis, who had long legs, was walking slower and slower. His grip on her hand became looser and looser.

Louis's legs felt like they were filled with lead. Every step he took required a lot of effort. After a turn, he leaned against the wall, breathing heavily, unable to walk anymore.

Louis sneered. His uncle had actually drugged him in his tea. At this moment, his whole body felt weak, like a broken puppet.

"Are you not feeling well?" Blanche asked anxiously.

Suddenly, Louis exerted all his strength and pulled Blanche into his arms. He glanced at the commotion behind him and leaned close to her delicate ear, speaking urgently.

"You have to go first. They're coming soon."
