Rodney sped toward the manor.
Even though he drove very quickly, it was about half an hour later when he arrived.
During that time, he called Sarah’s phone, but no one picked up.
He hit the steering wheel a few times out of frustration. He should have picked up the phone call just now. Was he that hungry for s*x?
Sarah had experienced a devastating shock when she was in the US. If she were to go through it again Rodney could not imagine it.
By the time he arrived at the manor, the doors were closed. Hence, he climbed over the wall to get in. Out of the whole manor, only the dining area on the second floor had its lights on.
Rodney rushed in and kicked open the balcony door on the second floor.
“Don’t come in…”
A vase was thrown at him.
Rodney hurriedly dodged. When he looked into the room, he saw Sarah disheveled and curled in the corner with tears on her face. At her feet lay a fat middle -aged man’s naked and disgusting body, as well as his bleeding head.
He knew at a glance what happened.
“Sarah, don’t be scared. It’s me,” Rodney said softly.
“Rodney, you’re here. Why are you so late?” Sarah slowly slumped down at the corner, hugging herself into a ball helplessly and painfully. “I thought you wouldn’t come. I was so scared. He kept trying to force himself on me, and I had no choice but to smash his head. I don’t know if he’s still alive. I might have killed someone.”
Rodney suddenly took pity on her.
He hurriedly took off his jacket and draped it over her shoulders. Then, he squatted down and checked the middle-aged man’s breathing. “He’s not dead. We’ll send him to the hospital.”
“But…” Sarah was frightened. “What if he calls the police…”
” I’ll send him to a private hospital. Chester won’t know about this.” Rodney comforted her. “And… he won’t be able to stay in Canberra anymore.
Someone like him doesn’t have the right to own a manor.”
“Thank you.” Sarah looked at him with tears of gratitude. “I didn’t expect you to come.”
Rodney was a little afraid to meet her eyes. “I’ll make a call first.”
He dialed his assistant’s number and told him the details.
After hanging up, he hesitated and said to Sarah, ” I’ll send you back.”
“…Okay.” Sarah hesitated a moment before nodding. However, when she got up, her body fell to the ground in pain.
“Easy there.” Rodney subconsciously held her.
“I’m sorry. I bumped my knee when I pushed him, ” Sarah said in a low voice.
Rodney thought about it and finally picked her up.
Sarah could instantly smell the fragrance of an unfamiliar woman on him, and a hint of annoyance welled up in her.
She used to look down upon Rodney in the past, but she did not think he would be seduced to bed with Mireya.
Mireya and Cate were probably the two women she hated most in her life.
However, she did not dare to reveal any expression on her face. She simply said with remorse, “I’m sorry… Did I disturb Mireya and you by suddenly contacting you tonight?”
“No,” Rodney denied it.
Sarah forced a smile. “I can smell the scent of a woman on you. It’s good that you’ve found happiness.”
Although she was smiling, there were tears at the bottom of her eyes.
Rodney was a little upset, but he pursed his lips and did not say anything.
After putting her in the car and asking for her address, he drove the car to take her there.
When they reached their destination, Rodney was stunned to see the dilapidated building. “You live in this place?”
“Yeah. This is the only place that doesn’t require an ID. You can live here as long as you pay, and the rent is cheap too,” Sarah said softly.
“Are you that short of money?” Rodney frowned.
“After I lost that lawsuit, I gave all my money to Shaun.” Sarah bit her lip. “Then, Wesley caught me. I haven’t been able to earn money ever since.”
“Give me your bank account. I’ll transfer some money to you.” Rodney took out his phone.
“No, I don’t want to owe you anymore…”
“Pay me back in the future. ” Rodney interrupted her. “I’m only lending you this money. Also, if I find out that you’re lying to me about Shaun, I won’t let you off, never mind this money.”
“I’m not lying to you… ” Sarah took out her phone weakly.
After getting her account, Rodney transferred five grand to her. It was not that he had no money, but Sarah was nothing to him anymore. It would not make sense if he gave her too much.
“This house is terrible. It’s not safe for a woman to live here alone. Go and find another place to stay. If you spend wisely, this money should be enough for a month…”
Sarah hesitated before asking, “Can you find a place for me? I don’t dare to run around now, and the housing agencies need to see an ID card…”
Rodney frowned. He did have a property under his name, but he had told Mireya about it before.
Although she did not check, it would be troublesome if she found out.
He thought about it and called Rory. “Let Sarah live in the small apartment under your name for a month. I’ll pay the rent.”
“Oh, so you’ve decided to care for her after all,” Rory teased.
“It’s not what you think…”
“It’s fine. Since Young Master Snow has asked, I’ll get it done. I guarantee that no one will know about this. At most, I’ll declare to the public that I have a sugar baby. I have a ton anyway, so one more doesn’t matter.”
With that, Rory gave him the address of an apartment.
Rodney then sent Sarah to Rory’s apartment.
“Don’t go to work this month. Just stay here. If Shaun is fine, then I’ll send you abroad.”
After that, he drove away.
It was already 1:oo a.m. by the time he returned to the villa.
He quietly took a bath downstairs before going upstairs to sleep.
Mireya was already asleep.
When he looked at her and recalled what happened tonight, he could not fall asleep.
The next day, Mireya woke up and asked him, “What time did you come back last night? I didn’t know you came back at all.”
“Around 1:00 a.m. You were sleeping like a little pig,” Rodney said vaguely.
“You’re the pig.” Mireya hammered her fist on him but did not use much strength. “What did you do last night? You left in such a hurry.”
“There was an emergency at the company, so I went over to solve it. It’s fine now.” Rodney was afraid that she would ask more questions, so he quickly turned around to tease Dani.
Mireya looked at him for a moment and kicked him lightly. “No gift today?”
Rodney froze for a while and quickly said, “There is, there is. I came back too late yesterday and forgot to get it. It’s in the car. I’ll go get it now.”
Within a few minutes, he came back with a gift box.
