Colby used some slipperynguage to gauge Gina''s next move. And, just as he expected, Gina lit up when she heard him.


    You see, most guys, especially the married ones, tend to pass the buck to their wives when temptationes calling. It''s like they''re saying, "Hey, I''m all for this, but my wife? Not so much. So, you gotta figure out a way that keeps everyone happy-her and me." Gina gave a textbook response, practically shouting her willingness to be the other woman. "Mr. Colby, don''t worry, I''m not after Mrs. Costello''s spot. Just being by your side is more than enough for me!" Colby chuckled internally but kept a poker face. "Come in," he said coolly.


    Gina could hardly contain her glee as she stepped inside. So much for the big-shot businessman! Turns out, a pretty face is all it takes to crack him. Men-they''re easier to read than a paperback novel.


    Following Colby into the swanky presidential suite, Gina''s eyes immediately locked onto the plush, inviting bed. With the room dimly lit and just the two of them inside, it was hard not to let her imagination run wild. "Mr. Colby..." she murmured, feeling a bit shy.


    It was her first time meeting someone so strikingly handsome, and when she found out Mr. Donny was sending her to Colby''s room, she was over the moon.


    Colby looked at the bashful Gina and walked over to the bed. She thought he was inviting her closer, but then he pulled out a sleek ck handgun from the drawer.


    Gina''s face went pale. "I''m not one for chit-chat. Spill everything you know, and maybe I''ll let you walk out of here."


    Colby settled into a chair, aiming the gun squarely at her. "Mr. Colby..." Gina stammered, trembling with fear.


    She knew all about Colby''s ruthless reputation. He had a history of taking out anyone he needed to, and a woman wouldn''t be any exception.


    "Expecting a rescue? Not gonna happen," Colby said. "This room''s got a signal jammer. No one outside


    can bear a thing, including that


    recorder you''ve got."


    little


    Gina''s heart sank as Colby mentioned the hidden recorder. She thought she''d been discreet!


    "So, are you gonna hand it over, or do I have to take it off you?"


    "I-I''ll give it I''ll give it..." Gina''s hands shook she retrieved the recorder from her bag, overwhelmed by Colby''s intense presence.


    We


    She''d had it on her since she was outside, knowing full well The Silent Shadows warned her about Colby''s cautious nature. A ce like this? Of course, he''d have it locked down with a signal jammer.


    "Mr. Donny sent me... Please, don''t kill me!"


    The fear was in on her face, and she was desperate now.Text ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.
