Chapter 1096:
Meanwhile, Carrie's maid returned after moving the car. As she approached the restroom, she stopped in her
tracks. Carrie was gone. So was the nurse from earlier. Instead, a new nurse stood in front of the door with a sign
next to her that read: “Out of Order.” Panic hit instantly. The maid rushed forward.
The nurse stretched out an arm, blocking her path. “Sorry, this restroom’s under repair. You'll need to use

“There was someone inside just now!” the maid snapped. “What do you mean ‘under repair?’”
She raised her voice, calling, “Ms. Campbell? Ms. Campbell, are you in there?”
The nurse frowned, clearly annoyed. “Everyone's already left. Who are you looking for?”
The maid quickly pulled out her phone and showed a photo. “This is Ms. Campbell. She’s an actress. You'd

No one would stop her—the security cameras around here had already been disabled.
Inside his apartment, Daxton lounged lazily on the couch, dressed in a black silk loungewear set. The usual air of
refined elegance was gone—replaced by a colder, sharper edge. He radiated a quiet authority that felt more
dangerous than calm.

In front of him, the table was set with a full spread of fine dishes. Red wine was breathing in a crystal decanter,
the deep crimson catching the sunlight.
An assistant stood at his side, speaking cautiously. “Mr. Garcia, Lise has taken Ms. Campbell from the hospital.”
Daxton sat up a bit, poured himself a glass of wine, took a slow sip, then asked in an even tone, “Any idea where
they're headed?”
The calm in his voice unsettled the assistant. Even with the woman he cared about in danger, Daxton looked
unfazed—as if this were all just business.
To those who worked under him, Daxton felt more machine than man—detached, cold, using life and death as
mere tools.
