Olivia and William spoke in unison. Jameson was surprised by that and hurried into the elevator.
“These two were getting more and more alike in temperament. Even the way they scolded me sounded
just the same.
“I’d better share this good news with Luci!” thought Jameson.
After Jameson left, only William and Olivia remained in the room.
An awkward silence fell upon them.
“William, don’t joke around like that anymore. It’s not funny.”
“You will know that I am serious, sooner or later.
“You…” Just as Olivia was about to retort, her stomach growled.
“You must be hungry. I’ll make you another pancake,” William looked at her dotingly and stroked her
head before entering the elevator.
At this moment, Olivia’s heart was in a mess.
In a villa in the suburbs.
Caroline returned from Blake’s place early in the morning. Just as she opened the door, a cup flew past
her face, thrown by Dean.
“Mr. Clarke, what’s going on?” After dodging the cup, Caroline carefully walked past the fragments on
the ground toward
Dean.
Worrying that he might do something dangerous, she subconsciously kept a certain distance from him.
“You actually came back, huh? Where did you wander off to last night?”
“Where else could I go? I’m only working myself to death for our daughter. Why are you taking it out on
me?” Caroline said with a hint of self–pity.
“Don’t mention that bitch! She went on a date with Mr. Lee yesterday and vanished. She didn’t answer
the phone or text messages all night and no one knows where she is! Call her quickly and ask her to
explain everything!
“I haven’t received a single cent of the investment we agreed upon yesterday!”
Dean was so angry. He had spent so many years raising her, only to feel it was all for nothing!
He had thought that he would get the investment soon, so he was too excited to sleep last night!
“Mr. Clarke, don’t worry. I’ll call Gianna right away.” Caroline knew Dean just wanted to get the
investment quickly.
“Even if Gianna had a good time with Mr. Lee, she should answer the phone. How irresponsible of
her!”
At this thought, Caroline immediately called Gianna.
“Sorry, the subscriber you dialed is powered off…”
Hearing this, doubts arose in Caroline’s mind.
She knew that Gianna would never turn off her phone. What was going on?
“Did you get through?” Dean asked impatiently.
Although he was angry, he still hoped that Caroline could get in touch with Gianna so that he could
know when he could receive the money!
The economic troubles of the Clarke Corporation were getting worse and worse. He couldn’t wait any
longer!
“Her phone is turned off… Mr. Clarke. Gianna has never turned off her phone. Do you think anything
happened to her?”
Caroline held the phone and said worriedly.
“What? Her phone was turned off? She doesn’t want to give me the money, does she?” Hearing that,
Dean immediately stepped forward angrily and took the phone from Caroline.
When he heard the automated voice message, he was so angry that he was about to throw the phone
away. Fortunately, Caroline stopped him quickly, so she could save her phone.
This was the new phone that Blake just bought for her and she was short of money, she couldn’t afford
to let Dean break it. Otherwise, Blake would be unhappy!

“Mr. Clarke, don’t worry. Maybe Gianna had fun with Mr. Lee yesterday and forgot to charge the phone.
And I got Mr. Lee’s phone number from Gianna the other day. Why don’t we call him?”
Seeing Dean was exasperated, Caroline quickly came up with a new idea.
“Do you think you’re the only one who has Mr. Lee’s number? I called him earlier, but he had his phone
turned off too!” “Did this little bastard want to get his daughter for nothing?”
Dean thought angrily, gnashing his teeth in hatred.
“Oh! It’s connected! Mr. Lee’s phone is available!”
“Who is it? You’re ruining my sweet dreams!” Wayne finally answered the phone irritably at the time
Caroline made the third call.
“Mr. Lee, it’s me, Gianna’s mother. I’m really sorry…” Caroline tried her best to apologize sincerely over the phone.
When Dean heard this, he immediately came over and gestured with his eyes, indicating he wanted to
ask Wayne about the investment.
“Gianna’s mother? Oh, Aunt Goodwin, what’s the matter?” Wayne was so drunk last night that he slept
on the street before being brought home by his family. His mind was not clear now.
When he learned that it was Gianna’s mother, he even rose from the bed.
“Gianna didn’t come back home last night, and I couldn’t get through to her. I wonder whether she’s with you,”
Caroline asked cautiously, her tone as gentle as it could be.
“Gianna? No, she’s not. Yesterday, my housekeeper said they found me alone on the street! Aunt
Goodwin, you have to talk to Gianna. After all, I’m her man. How could she abandon me like that? What if anything wrong happened to me?”
Wayne recalled what had happened last night, complaining to Caroline with resentment.
“What? Gianna isn’t with you? Then where did she go? She likes you. She wouldn’t do that to you. Mr.
Lee, is there any misunderstanding? Did something happen to her?”
Caroline felt that something was wrong, and she expressed her worries.
“Aunt Goodwin, don’t worry. I’ll go look for her right now!” Wayne’s mind was fully clear at this moment.
“Gianna liked me so much. She wouldn’t do that.
“Something must have happened to her!”
Thinking of this, he immediately got out of bed and put on some clothes casually, only to find that he
was locked in the room. “Who locked the door? Open it quickly!”
Wayne slammed the door angrily. Hearing this, Caroline felt that something had happened to him.
Her heart sank! From NôvelDrama.Org.
“It seemed that Wayne had been locked up again. Then Gianna…”
As Caroline was concerned, the villa’s door was suddenly opened.
Surrounded by several bodyguards, a fashionably dressed woman walked in.
