Chapter 773: Has She Come Back?
Chapter 773: Chapter 773: Has She Come Back?
Baron Stuart stood behind her, watching her slender figure, feeling an indescribable calm in his heart.
She seemed to have started paying attention to other things around her.
Although Emily Walker’s gaze was somewhat dull, every object and scene in the garden seemed especially new, unfamiliar, yet somewhat familiar to her.
Her line of sight glanced over the handmade fishpond not far away, and was soon deeply attracted by the colorful whale inside…
Baron Stuart’s gaze never left her, following her step by step.
At this moment, his cell phone rang in his arms. He furrowed his eyebrows and took out the phone to check.
“What’s the matter?”
“Young Master, Thomas Emiliano is missing!” Clayton Howard’s anxious voice came from the other end of the phone.
He had been gone for only about half an hour, and Thomas Emiliano actually disappeared from the secret chamber!
Hearing this, Baron Stuart’s eyebrows tightened involuntarily, and his tone contained a hint of surprise.
“What do you mean ‘missing’?”
Even if Thomas Emiliano had the skills to escape the chains, the key to the secret chamber was only held by his grandpa and him, so it was impossible for him to vanish into thin air.
“Following your instructions, we spread the news to City C, but when we came back, Thomas Emiliano was gone, and the two men we left to guard him had disappeared as well.”
This was the part that Clayton Howard couldn’t figure out.
Young Master’s men had all signed a Life and Death Contract, so betrayal was absolutely impossible!
But if Cosmos Blossom had rescued Thomas Emiliano, it seemed unlikely, as the news had only been released for half an hour, and it was even more impossible for him to arrive here from City C in half an hour!
Unless… Cosmos Blossom and the others had known about Thomas Emiliano’s situation early on.
Hearing this, Baron Stuart became even more confused.
Even if Thomas Emiliano had escaped, how could his men disappear as well?
“Investigate it, and keep an eye on Cosmos Blossom and his group’s whereabouts.”
“Yes!”
After hanging up the phone, Baron Stuart lowered his eyes and pondered for a few seconds. When he turned his head again, the person who had been by the pondside had suddenly disappeared…@@novelbin@@
He looked up, searching around, but Emily Walker’s figure was nowhere to be found in the vast garden!
If she wanted to go back to the house, she would have to pass by him. But just now, she hadn’t passed by this place at all!
For a moment, Baron Stuart’s heart felt like it was being squeezed by something, and he rushed towards the pond.
“Emily Walker!”
Looking at the calm pond, with only fish swimming and causing ripples, the scene of her falling into the swimming pool last time suddenly flashed through Baron Stuart’s mind, and his heart involuntarily skipped a beat.
But thinking carefully, if she really had fallen into the pond, there should have been a struggle.
“Emily Walker!!” The more he couldn’t hear any response, the more anxious his heart became, as if being pricked by needles, making him feel suffocated.
The phone call from earlier suddenly echoed in his ear: Young Master, Thomas Emiliano is missing!
No, it would be extremely difficult to kidnap someone from here, let alone right under his watch!
“Emily Walker!!!” Answer me, answer me quickly!
After almost running a lap around the entire garden and still not seeing her figure, Baron Stuart’s eyebrows couldn’t help but tighten even more!
It was just a few short minutes; how could she vanish into thin air!
His sight once again caught the handmade fishpond not far away. Although he didn’t feel it was likely, his footsteps involuntarily walked towards the pond…
What do you think?
