Chapter 409 Vanished Into Thin Air “Go to Theodore if you don’t believe me!” Lauren said angrily, “He was the one who made me do it. It’s
pointless for you to ask me!” “Theodore?” Vanessa sneered. “No one knows where he went. How am I
to ask him?” “How can you not know where he went?” Lauren remarked sarcastically, “Weren’t you
guys working very well together before?” From her reply, Vanessa found a hint. “It’s you who was
behind Theodore’s incident, isn’t it?” Lauren smiled creepily. “You just found out? How else did the
whole organization come into my hands?” Hearing that, Vanessa gritted her teeth. “As I thought. You’re
heartless and ambitious. You’ve wanted to do this for a long time, right?” Lauren did not respond and
simply stared at her. From her reaction, Vanessa understood it all. Lauren had no good intentions from
the start. The female lovebug in Yareli’s body could be fake!
“What the hell did you do to my daughter?” Vanessa rushed over, intending to grab Lauren’s hair. There
was no way Lauren would allow Vanessa to hit her, so when the latter rushed over, she had already
pulled out a dagger and aimed it at her stomach. Vanessa wanted to avoid it, but Lauren grabbed her
shoulder and viciously drove the dagger into the former’s stomach with all her might. “Ugh!” Vanessa’s
face twisted in pain. Lauren sneered. “You lot should be dead long ago for hogging what belongs to us
in the first place! You’re just as abominable as Theodore!” With that, she pulled out the dagger and
drove it in again. Arms flailing in the air, Vanessa managed to grab a vase next to her. Bang! With all
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇther strength, she smashed the vase onto Lauren’s head. The latter was caught off guard and
immediately fainted. Vanessa could not care less about anything else. She clutched her injured
abdomen, turned around, and staggered outside. There was only one thought in her mind at that
moment. I want to live. I must survive. Yareli is still waiting for me to save her. By the time Vanessa
escaped from Lauren’s residence and ran out of the gate, she had run out of strength. She looked
around, hoping to see someone who could save her. Just then, a white BMW drove over. She
immediately stretched out her hand, and the car stopped in front of her. Clarissa got out of the car.
She had never met Vanessa, so the two did not know one another. She had only ever met Yareli.
However, due to her strong impression of the latter, she was reminded of something the moment she
saw Vanessa. “Save me…” Vanessa crawled to Clarissa’s feet. “I can give you money. I can give you
anything as long as you can save me.” After saying that, she passed out. Clarissa crouched down and
found out Vanessa was still alive after checking her breath. “Do you think I lack money when I’m driving
this kind of car?” she remarked flatly, mumbling to herself. As the esteemed member of Blissful Sect,
she was never short of money. “Oh, whatever! You may be of no use to me, but perhaps you are for
someone else.” Clarissa narrowed her eyes for a moment before getting Vanessa into the car. She sent
the latter to a hospital that she felt was more reliable for emergency treatment. The medical service
there was quite good, so the doctors managed to save Vanessa. After confirming that the latter’s
condition was all right, Clarissa went to look for Charles. She sat in the car and called him. “Where are
you, Charles?” “Your house,” he replied in a low voice. “My house?” Clarissa frowned. “Are my dad and
brother causing you trouble again? Wait for me. I’ll go back now.” With that, she ended the call. Charles
did not even get the chance to speak. He solemnly placed his phone down and looked at Wilbur sitting
across from him. The latter had just returned from abroad, and beside him sat his newly-wed wife,
Adina. Adina was beautiful, with dark hair, deep eyes, a sharp nose, and alluring lips. She was a royal
princess and was said to also be a strong contender for the next royal heir. Wilbur had obeyed
Raymond’s arrangement to marry Adina to consolidate his position. Since Adina also needed the help
of the Blissful Sect, they mutually benefited from the marriage. As for how much love there was,
Charles did not know, and neither did he care about it.
“I heard that your sister is still alive,” Wilbur said with a half-smile. “You’re not very well-informed.”
Charles’ tone was cold. Wilbur smiled meaningfully. “I meant the explosion.” Charles kept quiet. Wilbur
is really much better informed with Adina’s help. “Don’t worry. There’s nothing between your sister and
me now.” Wilbur wrapped his arm around Adina’s shoulder and bragged, “I’m now better than Wyatt.”
Charles remained silent. I’ve not heard from Wyatt for a long time. I wonder where he went. Before the
words left his mouth, Raymond came down from the second floor. The three of them stood up. “Sit,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm
everyone.” Raymond looked tired. “What’s wrong, Father?” Wilbur asked curiously. Raymond let out a
sigh as he sat on the couch. “What else but Wyatt? I don’t know where he is now. He seemed to have
vanished into thin air.” Vanished into thin air? Wilbur narrowed his eyes. “He won’t die, anyway.”
Raymond’s expression was cold. “Charles, get your men to investigate within the country to see if he
has returned.” Charles remained calm. Raymond mentioned using my men. It seems like he’s also
testing me besides asking me to look for Wyatt. “Okay.” Charles nodded graciously. Hearing that,
Raymond said solemnly, “Thank you. If there is any news, notify me immediately.” “Will do.” Charles
nodded in response. Just then, Clarissa came into the living room from outside. “Dad, Wilbur, are you
two giving Charles a hard time again?” Raymond frowned. “What on earth are you talking about?”
“Have you ever seen us bullying him, Clarissa?” Wilbur asked thoughtfully, “What’s the matter? Are you
afraid that he’ll suffer at our hands?” Adina grinned. “Do you like Charles, Clarissa?” “No!” Clarissa’s
face instantly turned red. She looked at Charles, who was on the side, with a flustered expression. The
latter looked back calmly.
“I’m fine.” Only then did Clarissa let out a sigh of relief. “Glad to hear that.” Raymond furrowed his
brows. “We merely asked Charles to look for Wyatt. Your brother is missing, and you’re not even
anxious?” “He’s a living person. How can I control where he wishes to go with his own two legs?”
Clarissa continued coldly, “Besides, isn’t it clear to everyone why he doesn’t want to return to this
house?” If I had the means, I wouldn’t come back either. Hearing that, Raymond frowned. Clarissa
blinked before adding, “Dad, since you say I don’t care enough about Wyatt, how about I follow Charles
to Jade borough and help look for him?”
