She Made a Comeback as a Renowned Doctor

Chapter 742: Chapter 742 Catching Her in the Act on the Bed

At the same time, Alexander’s people searched inside and outside the banquet hall but couldn’t find a trace of Aria Richardson. The security at the door also didn’t report seeing anyone leave.

Alexander began to worry.

Natalie Rogers and Lily Armstrong stepped forward, noticing Alexander’s anxious demeanor, Natalie intentionally asked, "Alexander, what’s going on? What’s so urgent?"

Alexander glanced at them, his voice cold and heavy, "Aria Richardson is missing."

"Missing? How can someone just go missing out of the blue?" Natalie deliberately raised her voice, "That’s terrible, what if something happened?"

Lily chimed in, "Auntie, our security is very tight here, it’s unlikely something bad happened. Maybe Miss Richardson got tired and went to her room to rest."

Alexander coldly looked at the two, who seemed to be coordinating, squinting his dark eyes as he asked, "Is it your doing again?"

Natalie furrowed her brow, feigning anger as she looked at Alexander, "What have we done now? We’ve been staying here the entire time, and now that she’s missing, you blame it on my mom?"

Lily and Natalie indeed hadn’t left the banquet hall, their expressions seamlessly confident.

After all, she was his mother, and without solid evidence, Alexander was in no position to say much.

Just then, the female server who had handed Wyatt Lewis the room card was brought over by the bodyguards.

Lily discreetly glanced at the female server.

The server immediately received the signal.

The bodyguard said to Alexander, "Young Master Knox, this server said she saw Miss Richardson."

The server immediately nodded, "Yes, I just saw Miss Richardson; she went to the room upstairs."

Upon hearing this, Alexander breathed a sigh of relief, taking steps toward heading upstairs.

The server nervously stopped him, "Please wait, Young Master Knox, it might not be appropriate to go now."

Alexander halted, looking at the server, "Why wouldn’t it be appropriate?"

"This..." The server seemed troubled, her eyes flickering, as if there was something difficult to say.

Alexander had no time to wait for her hesitation, his gaze hardened, "Speak."

The server had to stammer out, "Miss Richardson went to the room upstairs and invited Wyatt... Young Master Lewis to join her."

Alexander’s body stiffened, his arm hanging at his side suddenly tensed.

Natalie listened, a satisfied smile curling her lips, her voice rising sharply, "What? That little tramp went behind Alexander’s back to seduce another man?"

Her piercing voice resonated, the words ’seducing another man’ quickly spread to the ears of those nearby.

Lily showed a worried expression, echoing, "Auntie, the situation isn’t clear yet; we can’t jump to conclusions. Maybe there’s some misunderstanding."

Natalie quickly added, "The server saw it firsthand; what’s there to fake? A man and woman alone in a hotel room; what else could they be doing? Shameless, I won’t let this tramp get away with it."

As she spoke, Natalie hurried upstairs, almost breaking into a run.

She was certainly anxious; she wished to catch Aria in the act immediately, to expose her in front of everyone, ruining her reputation, or their careful planning would be wasted.

Lily paused to persuade Alexander, "Why don’t you go up and check first, Alexander? I don’t think Miss Richardson is that kind of person; maybe things aren’t as we think."

Alexander’s face was expressionless at the moment, revealing no emotion, but Lily noticed his hand clenched tightly at his side.

She discreetly curled her lips, following them upstairs, while signaling the service staff in the venue to inform the security at the door to let the reporters in.

As they went upstairs, the reporters followed along unhindered.

This was Lily’s family’s hotel, and as long as she directed it, everything went smoothly.

Seeing what’s transpiring, guests began whispering, many curious people followed to see what was happening.

At this time inside the room, Wyatt Lewis flipped the lit incense and pushed Aria Richardson away slightly, his voice terrifyingly low, "Aria!"

Aria kept her eyes closed, instinctively drawing closer to the body that felt cold and comforting.

Wyatt’s body stiffened and trembled, her flushed face snuggling against his neck.

Wyatt took a sharp breath, maintaining his composure as he pushed her away, holding her shoulders, gritting his teeth persistently, "Aria, wake up, I’ll take you out of here."

Wyatt initially intended to grab some clothes for Aria to wear, but as soon as he let go, she dropped down, hitting her head on the corner of the table with a loud "thud."

Wyatt’s expression tightened, he hurried to assist her, "I’m sorry, I’m sorry, are you alright? I shouldn’t have let you go."

The severe pain cleared Aria’s mind somewhat, she shook her head vigorously, "I’m fine... Sorry for getting you involved."

"Do you know who did it?"

Aria bit her lip tightly and nodded, "It was Lily Armstrong and her crew."

"Damn."

"They’re bound to come up soon; we should leave."

Wyatt nodded grimly, grabbed a piece of clothing to wrap her up, bent down to pick her up, the sharp motion pulling at the wounds on his body, but Wyatt couldn’t care about that now.

He carried her to the doorway, intending to exit, but suddenly heard a commotion.

Outside the door. noveldrama

Lily looked at the server, worriedly asking, "Are you sure it’s Miss Richardson in there?"

The server nodded, "Yes, it’s Miss Richardson. She gave me the room card at that time, asking me to deliver it to Wyatt Lewis and also to relay a message that she would wait for him in the room, so I remember her clearly, no mistake."

Lily blinked, the man beside her already wore a frosty expression.

Upon hearing this news, the reporters got excited, already setting up cameras, eager to capture first-hand footage.

Aria Richardson, the fiancée of the Knox Family, caught in an affair with Young Master Lewis at a hotel.

The explosive weight of such a scandal was evident.

Lily had invited highly influential media outlets, and with so many witnesses on site, there would be no way to suppress the news once it broke.

Natalie was extremely pleased with Lily’s arrangements.

Just a door away, soon they could annul the engagement and reclaim the dowry, Natalie couldn’t contain the joy within, rushing forward to knock on the door, "Open up, Aria, are you inside? Open the door for me."

Inside, Wyatt Lewis’s brows twisted, his dark eyes emitting an angry glow.

Damn it.

Surveying the room, in a hurry, he first carried Aria into the bathroom.

With no response, Natalie knocked again, "Aria, come out; what indecent act are you committing in there? What have we done to you that you’re humiliating us like this?"

Lily pursed her lips, patting Natalie’s shoulder, "Auntie, please don’t rush."

Lily politely knocked on the door, "Miss Richardson, are you inside? If you are, please say something; we are all very worried about you."

Still no response, Lily continued, "Could something have happened...? We can’t ignore it; what if something has gone wrong? Get the manager to bring the universal room key."

The server went to fetch the manager, who brought the universal room card forward and was about to open the door when it opened from the inside.
