First Love Only? I Left Him First, Now the CEO Can't Let Go novel Chapter 165

Chapter 165: Chapter 165: House Arrest

Up until now, he still doesn’t know exactly what Serena Jennings has gone through.

All he knows is that tomorrow is his wedding, yet he doesn’t want to go through with it and can’t sleep.

While he was tossing and turning, unable to sleep, suddenly, a strange multimedia message woke him completely.

The multimedia message contained only one photo.

The background of the photo was the abandoned dock at night, and the focus was a cellphone.

Justin Nash didn’t recognize anything else, but that cellphone looked very familiar.

It was Serena Jennings’ phone.

Initially, Justin Nash was still wondering who sent him such a photo and for what purpose. Later, he left his room and tried to contact Serena Jennings but couldn’t reach her. He also heard that a fugitive from City A had fled to Meridia, kidnapped Claire Shaw, and extorted Caleb Lockwood.

All these factors filled Justin Nash with unease.

He quickly began searching the photo for that abandoned dock, and sure enough, he found Serena Jennings there.

Serena Jennings was soaked through, looking as if she had just crawled out of the sea, dragging her increasingly weary body, leaving clear traces of water.

But ultimately, she collapsed to the ground, her strength exhausted.

Her phone lay right beside her.

However, the phone wasn’t broken or wet.

Justin Nash found it peculiar.

Clearly, something must have happened to Serena Jennings.

And the person who sent him the photo must have wanted him to save Serena Jennings.

The question is, why?

Serena Jennings was Caleb Lockwood’s wife, and everyone attending his and Cynthia Fulton’s wedding knows that.

The other party didn’t contact Caleb Lockwood but contacted him...

Justin Nash always felt there was some sort of scheme involved.

Nevertheless, despite the other’s impure motives, they still helped him a great deal.

Justin Nash thought, perhaps this was fate!

Since fate had created an opportunity between him and Serena Jennings, he naturally wouldn’t let it slip away.

Thus, Justin Nash took the unconscious Serena Jennings to the ocean-view villa at Sapphire Bay.

Serena Jennings’ hand was injured, appeared to have been cut by a sharp object, and her wrist had clear abrasions.

Justin Nash helped Serena Jennings treat her wounds, applied medication, and also helped her remove her wet clothes.

Serena Jennings was wearing a dress, but inside she wore seamless underwear.

Although the underwear was also wet, it wasn’t overly so.

Justin Nash hesitated for a moment, resisted taking advantage of Serena Jennings, and carried her onto the bed, letting her rest.

Through the clean floor-to-ceiling glass window, he could see Serena Jennings sleeping soundly inside.

Justin Nash dared not go in.

He feared he might lose control.

The sun rose from the horizon, and the dark sea water, illuminated by the sunlight, sparkled and gradually returned to its original azure.

Serena Jennings didn’t know how long she had been asleep.

She only knew that when she woke up, the surroundings felt unfamiliar.

She still remembered being kidnapped by Dylan Quinn and escaping by jumping into the sea.

She had already swum ashore, but the massive loss of her stamina and body temperature ultimately caused her to collapse.

At that time, Serena Jennings didn’t know what her fate would be.

Dylan Quinn’s accomplice had a gun; if he wouldn’t spare her, she might be taken away or even killed.

Serena Jennings nearly fainted from the overwhelming terror.

However, now she awoke to an unfamiliar environment that suggested she hadn’t been taken to NM.

The place was a Mediterranean-style sea-view villa, where the sound of crashing waves could be heard.

Just as Serena Jennings noticed she wasn’t wearing clothes, she heard a man’s voice.

"You’re finally awake."

The person who emerged from behind the floor-to-ceiling glass startled Serena Jennings significantly.

"Justin Nash?"

"Yes..."

Justin Nash smiled softly, a smile akin to what he had when they first met, carrying the distinctive youthful vibe of a university student.

Yet Serena Jennings couldn’t bring herself to smile.

"Justin Nash, what time is it now, and your wedding?"

"I escaped."

Serena Jennings was stunned.

Serena Jennings watched Justin Nash with wide eyes. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
