My Powerful CEO Husband

Chapter 72

Ch. 72 / 753 Jan 28, 2026

Ben was a very tough man. His masculine features were chiseled. Besides, he was 1.9 meters high. He was as strong as an bull, full of energy and strength.

He stared at Lita's business car for a while and then reminded his men, "Be gentle! The one sitting in the car is Mr. Alex's woman! Be careful and don't hurt her!"

As Ben gave the order, the Jeep on the left side of the business car turned right, and blocked the way of the business car. The driver of the business car had to stop in a hurry.

Seeing that the Jeep in front of them did not move for a long while, the driver said to Lita, who was sitting in the back seat, "Mrs. Selmy, I'll get off to have a look. Please don't get off the car."

"Be careful," said Lita, as she felt that the Jeep in front of them seemed to be unkind.

But just as the driver opened the locked door from inside, he was dragged out by a man in black who rushed over.

"Ah..." Lita let out a cry of surprise and instinctively took out her phone from her handbag to call the police. The right rear door was opened instantly, and a man in black appeared in front of her like a ghost.

A soft thing like a towel immediately covered Lita's mouth and nose. With a faint fragrance, Lita fell into coma. A minute later, the feeble Lita was carried into the jeep behind.

Ben glanced sideways at Lita, who was lying on the back seat. He slightly frowned and thought, 'This woman has appearance only a little better than average women. She is miles away from Helen of Troy. Of course, she looks clean, pure and pretty, like a girl from a decent family. She is suitable to satisfy that barbaric and domineering Alex.

"Go back to see Alex and tell him that his woman is in my hands! My name is Ben!" Ben pulled his branded poker face and said.

The driver of Selmy family was frightened by Ben ferocity and nodded repeatedly. But he still plucked up his courage to say, "Please don't hurt Mrs.selmy. Mr. Alex will pay the ransom you ask for."

The driver of Selmy family thought that Ben kidnapped Lita just for money. How could he know that Alex and Ben used to be good buddies who hung out together day and night?

"I don't care about Alex money, I only care about his woman!" Ben was in a good mood and he teased the driver who was frightened. "Go back and inform Alex! If he comes too late, the woman will be mine!"

The driver nodded repeatedly, then climbed into the business car and sped off toward the Selmy family.

When Alex returned home and did not see Lita, whom he ordered to wait for him at home obediently, he furrowed his shapely eyebrows.

"Where's Lita?" he asked discontentedly.

"Mrs. Selmy went to the orphanage with Miss Cassidy. Nick drove them there." Alice took the suit and tie that Alex took off and sent the slippers to him.

"Go to the orphanage again?" he grumbled. He had just donated several million dollars to that orphanage not long ago and even he himself felt that he was too generous.

She wouldn't stay at home waiting for him and went out to mess around again? Alex was slightly angry. "Call Nick and ask him to bring her back immediately! Now!"

Before Alex finished his words, a screech of brakes sounded from outside and Nick rushed in.

"Mr. Alex, bad news...Mrs. Lita...she was kidnapped on our way back!" Nick reported, still in a state of shock. He had not been here for a long time, but he was very reliable in work.

"What? Lita was kidnapped?" Alex asked sharply and grabbed the collar of the driver. "Who did it?"

"That man said his name is Ben!" the driver answered in a hurry.

"Ben!" Alex was stunned for a moment and he let go of the collar of the driver.

"Mr. Alex, should we call the police?" The driver felt guilty for what had happened.

"No!" Alex said, "I'll handle it. It's none of your business."

Alex rushed upstairs and took a look at Ethan, who was still resting in the treatment room. After giving some instructions to Doctor Owen, he left the house hurriedly.

He raced the black Ferrari off. Alex's cold and handsome face froze and anger was accumulating in his heart.

When Lita woke up, it was already half an hour later. The bed she was lying in had great elasticity. It was a top grade product.

She sat up in panic, and looked around. It was a small room. The main color of the room was...pink? There was an indescribable obscure atmosphere.

She mechanically checked her body. Fortunately, she was full-clothed. She hadn't been assaulted. And her handbag was also on the side. Except for her mobile phone, all the other things were not missing. So she wasn't robbed either.

Lita ran to the door of the room. To her surprise, the door was opened easily by her with a click. But when she rushed out, she found the only path lead to outside was blocked by iron bars. Each bar was almost as thick as her arm and so no matter how she shook them, they didn't move.

"Where am I? Why would they lock me up here?' She was panic-stricken. She yelled at the top of her lungs, "Somebody help! Let me out... Let me out!"

But the response was the echo of her own voice.

In the monitoring room, Ben could clearly see Lita who was behind the bars. She was trying very hard to shake the iron fence that was as firm as a rock.

"Ben, are you out of your mind? Why did you lock Lita up?" Alex rushed over and threw a punch at him.

Ben was born fighter. He also had a nickname: king of free combat of Lisbon. However, his brains was far below Alex's. Therefore, under normal circumstances, he wouldn't play tricks with Alex. He knew that he couldn't outwit Alex! Most of the time, he would confront Alex head-on, so that there would be chances for him to win.

"I am just doing what others asked me to do!" Ben was tall and big, but his reaction was quick. He dodged Alex's punch in time.

"Who?" Alex snapped.

"Your brother Ethan! He asked me to lock you and Lita in the same room, so that you two can produce offspring." Ben did not mince his words and told him the truth directly.

Alex's blood was boiling. 'In order to make me and Lita have a baby, Ethan asked Ben to lock me up with her?"

'He cares everything about me, and now he even cares about my sex life?...How far has he gone!!
