As Dan stood by the nearby hallway to see Jamie off while he took the elevator down, he pondered for a moment. What if things were not as he had imagined since he had only heard what Jamie said earlier.
He decided to not think about it for now. Evan arrived the moment he returned to his office.
He loosened up his tie and approached his half–opened office. He then reached out to knock on his door and said, “Are you free tonight? Do you want to grab dinner together?”
“You’re already here anyway, so how can I not be free?” Dan replied while rubbing his brows when he heard Evan’s voice.
“Let’s go.” Evan said while looking at his wrist watch. He continued, “Let’s play a gof snooker after dinner. It’s been so long since we’ve had a gtogether.”
Dan was not in a hurry to leave as he chuckled with his arms crossed and said, “Aren’t you busy going after Anya recently? Why are you invitingout for a meal and not her?”

Dan was stunned when he heard that Anya’s phone was off. He then thought to himself, ‘Didn’t Jamie just mentioned about Anya’s disappearance earlier…?‘
Dan’s expression unknowingly turned serious.
Evan thought that something had happened after noticing his sudden change in expression, so he asked, “What’s wrong with you?”
“Jamie cto talk about listing my company on the stock market earlier.” Dan replied as he released his crossed arms and continued, “I think Anya is missing. Do you want to look into it?”
“Missing? Are you sure that you didn’t mishear him?” Evan asked as his gaze turned serious as well.
“I didn’t but I think it’s better for you to confirm with her family first.”
“I know.” Evan replied and did not stay for too long as he simply said, “We’ll hang out sother time.”
“Alright, just look into it. Callif you need anything.” Dan replied and did not make him stay.
The truth was, Dan could tell that although Evan told him that he was not serious with Anya, after spending so much ttogether, he might actually be serious about her when he showed that he cared about her, right?

Evan’s heart trembled when the children hugged his leg. His heart felt slightly warm but it was not the tfor him to hug the children since he needed to find Anya. He said, “Aunty, I will look for her first. I’ll inform you if there’s anything.”
Anya’s aunt was in so much panic, she nodded while she teared up. She then said, “Please find my Anya, Mr. Welton.”
“Don’t worry. I will bring her hsafely.” Evan replied. He left after patting the children’s heads.
It seemed that Anya was truly missing. Evan immediately told his assistant to look into the situation when he got out of her apartment.
After the phone call ended, Evan recalled that Anya’s only best friend was Cindy and Hayden had told him that Cindy was the one to pick her up from work earlier. He immediately found Cindy’s number and called her. Cindy only picked up the call after a couple of long seconds.
“Did Anya leave with you, Cindy?” Evan asked in a deep voice.
“No.” Cindy denied immediately as she did not want Evan to get involved in this.
“Cindy, Anya is missing, right?” Evan continued while he walked. His voice grew deeper which made Cindy a little afraid of him. He then said, “Do you wantto look at Welton Group’s surveillance footage to find out who picked her up earlier?”
Cindy immediately remained silent as she bit her lips. It seemed that she could not hide this from Evan, so she said, “Yeah, she madedrive her back to the MacMillan household but they hid her away.”
After Cindy said that, Evan simply replied, “I understand.” before hanging up the call immediately.
It seemed that the woman truly worried him too much.
