Chapter 426
There was no power and no signal.
The elevator was stuck.
Preston and the bodyguard could only wait.
Both of them sat down in the elevator.
About seven to eight minutes later, footsteps were heard outside.
Preston and the bodyguard looked at each other.
He had already stood up and shouted outside, “We’re here.
Hello, please help us.
We’re trapped in the elevator.” The footsteps outside stopped and then started again.
Preston felt footsteps approaching the elevator.
He guessed that they must be here to help.
Preston immediately shouted outside, “We’re stuck.
We can’t open the elevator door.
We have to think of a way to let the elevator rise or fall a little.
Please find the person in charge of the cruise ship.
You have to activate the backup power.” Outside, nothing moved.
Preston’s bodyguard shouted again, “Is there anyone outside? We’re trapped inside.” Suddenly, Preston felt dizzy.
He exhaled and said to the bodyguard, “There’s a wall outside.
It’s sealed and oxygen-deprived.
I feel like I can’t breathe.” The bodyguard did not reply.
His eyes were fixed on the gap between the elevator doors.
After staring at it for a while, he asked Preston, “Mr. Blake, do you see white smoke?” Preston looked over and saw that there was indeed white fog surging into the elevator through the crack.
It was not much, but if one looked carefully, one would be able to see it.
“Yeah,” he said.
The two of them immediately reacted and did the same thing, covering their mouths and noses with their sleeves.
Immediately after, Preston felt dizzy all over again. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
It was even more intense than before.
He immediately squatted down and leaned against the elevator wall to maintain his strength.
The bodyguard also began to feel dizzy.
He immediately took a step back.
After thinking for a while, he quickly held his breath, took off his coat, and used it to plug the gap in the door.
However, the smoke was getting more intense as it surged inside.
The bodyguard cursed deep down.
After holding his breath for half a minute, he had to breathe again.
He immediately retreated again, then covered his mouth and nose with his hand.
and took a small breath.
After a while, Preston fell into the elevator floor with a thud.
“Mr. Blake!” The bodyguard was shocked and immediately reached out to help Preston up.
He cursed deep down.
He did not expect such a filthy thing would happen in this era.
He only cared about practicing his boxing.
He was indeed inexperienced in dealing with such dirty tricks her than covering his mouth and nose and inhaling as little of the poisonous gas as possible, he couldn’t think of any other way.
He wanted to help Preston up, but Preston was already unconscious.
He also felt dizzy and short of breath.
He immediately took out his phone again, hoping that there would be some signal.
When he took it out, there was still no signal.
Suddenly, the lights in the elevator came on.
The bodyguard was overjoyed.
There was hope.
Immediately after, the elevator began to rise.
“Phew…” The bodyguard breathed a sigh of relief.
Ding! The elevator doors opened.
A few men in waiter’s clothes were guarding the door.
The bodyguard immediately felt that something was wrong.
He immediately shouted for Mr. Blake and rushed out with Preston.
Someone stopped him, and he kicked the guy down.
He immediately felt that something was wrong.
There was no strength in his kick at all.
Instead, his other leg felt unbalanced and weak.
Bang! A man raised his leg and kicked the bodyguard.
The bodyguard subconsciously dodged, but his body did not have any strength at all.
He could not dodge and the kick landed firmly.
His body fell backward and crashed into Preston “Con said.
“Which one?” “Of course it’s Mr. Blake.” The bodyguard listened to their conversation and knew that there was trouble.
He wanted to get up and protect Preston, but he was already too weak.
His head became more and more dizzy.
In the end, he couldn’t resist it and fainted.
“Drag them all away.
Don’t let anyone find out.
Hurry,” Another man said.
They worked in pairs, each pair carrying Preston and his bodyguards respectively.
“Which one is Mr. Blake?” Everyone was suddenly stunned.
They did not know which one they were going to kill.
“This is him, right? He’s thinner,” A “waiter” pointed at the bodyguard and said.
“Check the photos,” Another “waiter” ordered.
A underling immediately prepared to take out the photos to verify.
At the wedding venue.
Mina heard Julian talk about his teenage asthma.
attack and how Annalise saved him.
Mina was excited again.
She immediately turned her head and prepared to share a few words with Preston.
It was then that she found that Preston was gone.
There was a wallet left on his seat.
Mina frowned and picked up Preston’s wallet.
“That’s so careless of him.” She got up and went to look for Preston, ready to return the wallet to him.
She didn’t know which room Preston was staying in.
She thought for a moment and realized that the fourth floor was filled with supreme ocean-view rooms.
The Xander family, the Parks family, and Annalise’s mentors would definitely stay on the fourth floor.
He then figured that Preston might be staying on the third floor.
With that thought in mind, she took the elevator to the third floor.
The elevator dinged.
As soon as the elevator door opened, Mina saw a few waiters carrying Preston and his bodyguard.
“What are you guys doing?” Mina asked suspiciously when she saw that group of waiters.
“Ah, Mr. Blake is drunk.
We’re getting him back to his room.
Let’s go!” The waiter, who was about to check the photos, cleverly pressed an elevator next to him and carried the bodyguard in.
Then, he quickly closed the elevator.
The other two waiters were afraid that Mina would chase after them and ruin things.
They thought that they were holding Preston’s bodyguards and immediately dropped Preston at Mina.
“We still have to deliver the wine.
Please send him back to his room.” “Hey, you guys…” Mina helplessly took Preston and almost fell to the ground from Preston’s weight.
She could not care less and immediately helped Preston up.
“Drunk?” Mina frowned and muttered, “When did you drink? Weren’t you quite sober when you watched the wedding just now?” She did not like drunk men at all.
If not for the fact that there was no one else to help her, she would have thrown Preston away “Hey, wake up!” She pushed Preston.
Preston was like a boneless person.
As long as she did not tighten her grip, he could fall to the ground.
Mina was speechless.
He frowned tightly.
“Hey, it’s really rude for you to be so drunk at someone’s wedding.
Hey… No, how much did you drink?” Mina reached out to press the elevator button and was about to help Preston into the elevator when Preston fell backward.
She immediately reached out to pull him up.
In the end, both of them fell to the ground.
She pounced on Preston and pressed her lips against his.
Swoosh! Her face turned red.
“I didn’t mean to,” She explained as she scrambled to her feet.
In the end, Preston seemed to be dead and did not move at all.
Mina’s mind buzzed as he suddenly recalled what the waiter had said just now.
Mr. Blake was drunk, so they helped Mr. Blake to his room.
However, the person in front of her was the Mr. Blake they talked about!
