Chapter 179 Missing
Patricia returned to the hotel and hurried to the conference room. She pushed the door open and shouted. “Oh
no! Emelie has gone missing!”
Everyone who was preparing to summarize the day’s work turned to look at her.
Samuel stood up abruptly. He had just finished dealing with matters in the lab and returned to Wimstour City. He
hoped to see Emelle return from work. Instead, h with the dreadful news.
“What did you say?” Samuel shouted.
Patricia’s acting skills were impeccable. “Today, we went to several sites to collect data. After finishing, we
prepared to return to the hotel.
“Emelie suddenly said she wanted to use the restroom. But after half an hour of waiting with the driver, she
didn’t return.

William frowned and stared at Patricia, seemingly lost in thought
Jayden also frowned. “This is suspicious. Emelie wouldn't wander when she had work commitments. Let's
organize a search party first Alexis, you handle it.”
Alexis, being Jayden’s secretary, took charge
William then said, “Ashton, go and help arrange for it.”
With others handling the search, Jayden, William, and Patricia stayed at the hotel awaiting news.

William, seated at the head of the table with his hand on his forehead, responded indifferently, “No need. Let's
find her first Emelie is an adult with basic self-defense capabilities.
Jayden frowned. “What if she’s been kidnapped?”!
William countered by saying, “What value does she have to warrant someone going through all the trouble of

Jayden couldn't help but glance at William.
Emelie had been so close to him. They were practically married before. Now that she was missing, why wasn’t he
concerned for her safety? Wasn’the deeply concerned just a few days ago?
Patricia was seated in another spot and said, “Besides, if an adult goes missing for less than 24 hours, the police

Jayden picked up his phone. “I'll have Alexis gather more people from the site to assist in the search.”

William left the conference room, and his expression suddenly turned cold. Stepping into the corridor, he headed
straight for the secure passage.

Patricia's eyes flickered, but she acted calm and said, “I don’t know.”
William stared at her with a sharp gaze, leaving Fatricia breathless.
“In the forest to the east,” Patricia finally admitted.
William's expression tumed stem. “You left her alone in the woods?”
Patricia shrugged nonchalantly.
