If the cost of letting me escape is putting you in danger, Ill choose not to be saved by you, Ariana said. There was no way she would just abandon them. Let me get out of the car. Dont waste any more time.
I said no. I cant let you get out of the car. Holden was also firm in his decision.
Ariana knew she couldnt persuade Holden. So, she opened the door and was about to go out directly.
When Holden saw this, he couldnt afford to hesitate. Before Ariana could step down, he knocked her out and let her sit properly. He fastened the seat belt for her, gently touched her face, and said to the driver coldly, Take her to a safe place. Dont stop the car no matter what happens.
Okay, sir, the driver replied, ready to rush out.

Holden opened the door and got out of the car. He would confront Bennett in person.
When Bennett saw the car door open, his expression softened. However, he then saw that it was not Ariana who got out of the car. He narrowed his eyes.
Its you. Bennett recognized Holden at once.
During this period, he had been paying attention to the news in Eleymond.
Naturally, he had a good understanding of the person who held power in the Fredrick family.
No wonder Ariana cant forget you. Bennett was still smiling. But this time, his smile was scarier than before. You really love her. You can even risk your life to save her. Even I am moved. But I wont let you two off just because I am moved.
Well, that is no longer surprising. After all, your means are so despicable. Of course, you wont show mercy just because you are moved. As he spoke, Holden walked towards Bennett step by step. He looked at Bennett with eyes as cold as ice. As a husband, it is only natural that I save my wife.
Holden intentionally stressed the word wife to declare his relationship with Ariana. However, Bennett only sneered, Wife? How can you call her wife? As far as I know, you and Ariana havent gotten your marriage certificate. Its just a fair competition between us. So, whats despicable about me? Who are you to say that to me?
Bennett didnt take the bait. He also didnt get angry. On the contrary, he acted provocatively.
Whether or not we have gotten our marriage certificate has nothing to do with you. Holden laughed angrily. He asked sarcastically, As the master of the Olson family, do you want to be the secret lover of a woman who doesnt even love you?
Holden was convinced that his words would get under Bennetts skin, but to his surprise, Bennett burst

into laughter. His laughter echoed through the air, growing louder as if he had just heard the funniest joke in the world.
Holden remained cautious, keeping a keen eye on Bennett.
Eventually, Bennetts laughter subsided, and his expression turned cold.
Im not like you, Holden. I dont actually like Ariana. I just find this whole situation amusing, Bennett said, glancing past Holden towards the car.
Theres nothing more entertaining than tearing apart a couple in love! The sound of their tears when they cant be together? Its like music to my ears!
Holden couldnt help but think Bennett was crazy.
He had assumed Bennett had a thing for Ariana, but as it turned out, Bennett was just reveling in their misery.
Bennett was even worse than he had imagined!
But Holden kept his cool. This is just a twisted game to you. We wont play along.
