Chapter 737 Time was Tight
The guests who arrived were all close friends, relatives, and trusted partners of
Charlotte and Joe. They cooperated efficiently, quickly completing the
investigation.
Everyone was present, and there were no suspicious actions.
This meant that the intruder had used another method to infiltrate the island,
silently arriving and silently taking Charlotte away.
To move so freely on the island, the secret passageway was undoubtedly
instrumental.

the builders, designers, and all the workers involved in the construction of the
underwater palace. If anything seems suspicious, it’s better to make a mistake
than to let anyone go.”
“I found something!” Erik exclaimed, drawing everyone’s attention to him.
Joe quickly walked up to him and asked, “Have you found her?”
Erik nodded silently and presented the surveillance footage to Joe. “The
surveillance shows that before the wedding started, a yacht quietly left the coast
and sailed towards the open sea.”
The surveillance cameras could only monitor the area around the island, and
there were no cameras in the open sea, making it impossible to track.
“What about accessing satellite images?” Joe persisted.
Erik hesitated for a moment and said, “Perhaps it’s possible, but it will take a
considerable amount of time.”
However, what they were lacking the most at the moment was time.
No one knew the motives of the group that had taken Charlotte. If they had
sinister intentions during this time…
Joe took a deep breath and nodded firmly. “I’ll arrange it right away. Would ten
assistants be enough for you?”
Erik also understood his urgency and agreed through gritted teeth, “No
problem.”
“Ben and Anna will be in your care for these days,” Joe said, addressing Sir
Smith and Old Mr. Clinton.
They were both intelligent and might have an inkling of what had happened, but
they wouldn’t disturb anyone at this moment.
The two elderly gentlemen exchanged a glance, sighed deeply, and patted Joe’s
shoulder. “We’ve got everything else covered; you focus on finding her.”
On the side, Zoe furrowed her brow and spoke, “My family’s security team is
experienced in handling these matters. Perhaps they can be of assistance as
well.”
Joe nodded and looked at her intently. “Thank you.”
At that moment, Huxley, with a stern expression, entered the room, gripping his
phone tightly. He addressed Joe, “I’ve checked, and it wasn’t anyone from the
Faulkner family.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen Charlotte went missing, his initial instinct was to investigate the Faulkner
family members. However, since Huxley had reclaimed all the shares of the
Faulkner Group, the second branch had to rely on a small family fund for their
livelihood. None of them could afford such a substantial amount of money.
During this time, they had all remained unusually quiet, and no unusual activity
was detected.
Joe replied with a heavy tone, “I’ll continue to investigate the others.”
And so, what was supposed to be a lively wedding reception turned somber and
deserted for a while.
Apart from a few close friends, others had gradually left the island. Everyone
acted in unspoken agreement, keeping this matter tightly sealed from the media,
not allowing even a hint of news to leak.
Sharon personally flew to Albania for an on-site investigation. He finally
managed to uncover a slight lead with a combination of persuasion and
pressure.
The contract to abduct Charlotte was taken on by a mercenary group called the
Solomon. They were small in number but notorious for their ruthlessness. As
long as the pay was sufficient, they were willing to do anything.
This was exactly what Sharon had feared the most.
