Chapter 31 Discovered A Secret Room

"What are you doing here?" Rowena was even more confused. The rooftop was empty. There was no one.

"Just now, on top of the wine bottle tower, someone did something. Since this is the top floor, there must be a dark room between the roof and the hall." Ryan explained as he walked to a corner. He took a pair of gloves from his pocket and put them on. He squatted down to check the floor of the rooftop, "According to the location of the wine bottle tower just now, it should be here."

"Is it a compartment specially built by the hotel?" Rowena frowned, "But as far as I know, this hotel is only for daily business use. There is no need to build a secret base. Could it be that...they have an illegal business?"

"There is an illegal business certainly, but the hotel should not know about it." Ryan seemed to have touched something. He curled his lips slightly, "If I'm not wrong, this is a base left behind by the White family thirty years ago."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly exerted force.

The previously impenetrable cement floor suddenly had a crack, and then a tiled staircase appeared in front of them.

Rowena's mouth opened into an "o" shape, “Wow!"

Ryan glanced at her as if she was an idiot who had seen nothing of the world, "Hurry up, or I won't be waiting for you."

"Alright." Rowena came back to her senses and hurriedly followed him.

The stairs were very long. No wonder they had climbed two floors from the top floor to the rooftop. Although the venue was small, the dark room was large and empty because it removed all the partitions and blocking boards.

Clap, Clap, Clap.

A round of applause came. Because the space was too empty, the echoes were strangely loud.

Then, a masked man appeared in front of the two of them.

"Very fast." He commented with wired smile, "As expected from a descendant of the Vance family."

"What's the reason for calling us here?" Ryan's expression darkened, confirming that this man was undoubtedly Mason. Instinctively, he pulled Rowena behind him, shielding her.

"You? No, I only invited Miss Rowena this time. You couldn't have come, right?" Mason smiled evilly and took a few steps closer, "Yesterday, I only wandered around in the range of your subordinates' line of sight. Who knew that you were so nervous and directly contacted Miss Gale? You didn't hesitate to expose yourself and accompany her to see me. Your bond as brother and sister is truly deep."

Ryan's eyes instantly became fierce, and a trace of killing intent flashed past, "Completely exposed? I don't think so. Certainly, you don't want to share information with White family."

Mason certainly understood Ryan's intention. He didn't hide it but generously admitted, "That's right, you are safe for the time being. However, your weakness has completely fallen into my hands."

"Ha." Ryan smiled and looked at the arrogant man with contempt, "As I can protect her for the first time, I can do it for the second time. Have you forgotten what happened last time?"

"You have a good brother." Mason ignored Ryan and turned to look at Rowena, "Miss Gale, you are good. I didn't expect that the CEO of Heartbeating was a weak girl like you. But it is also true that only the woman who loves her family will use her mother's name in the trademark. Tsk tsk, it is a pity to change it, "

"Bastard." Rowena cursed fiercely. Mason's arrogant appearance made her feel like she had returned to the time two years ago, "Do you have to kill me before you give up?"

Heartbeating, Rowena’s company, was not its original name. When Rowena initially founded the company, she wanted to commemorate her mother and named it "To Anise·Vance” after her mother's name “Anise Vance".

However, after the registration of the trademark, she was kidnapped. The torture she suffered on the way was inhumane. They only beat her and did not even explain a single word. However, just as she was sent to the criminals' headquarters, Ryan suddenly appeared and saved her. After asking around, she found that the man was a descendant of Vance family.

Ryan explained. He was now a member of the FD drug enforcement organization, and he exposed his identity during an investigation. White family to know his real name. And because Rowena's trademark name suggested her identity as a descendant of the Vance family, she was targeted by White family.

Since then, her company changed its trademark, and she was protected.

"Don't worry. With your brother here, White family won't be able to touch you so far." The man smiled as if he was mocking, but no one knew who his target was, "After capturing you last time, that madman Ryan broke all the wireless network communications in the city. White family had not even got a single frame of your image. He also killed all the people who captured you. Later, when they wanted to investigate again, you had already completely vanished from the scope of their monitoring recording."

Ryan raised his eyebrows, "So, what’s your point?"

He praised him in front of Rowena. Is this why he lured the two of them?

"So, you are my very excellent candidates for collaboration." Mason turned around and walked into the hall, "You should have already seen my sincerity in cooperating with you."

His sincerity? What sincerity does he have besides causing two accidents? Rowena silently scoffed in her mind.

Wait...two accidents?
