After Adrian Walyon finished the call with Sumr Sutton, he leaned back in his chair and glanced at so docunts for a while. About half an hour later, he picked up his phone to check the call log.
It was exactly half an hour since Sumr Sutton called him. Given her usual driving speed, she should be back soon.
Adrian Walyon set the docunts aside and took Unity downstairs.
"Let’s go, ti to pick up your mama!"
Upon hearing the word "mama," Unity was thrilled.
In Adrian Walyon’s arms, it even extended its two front paws to make a clapping motion.
"ow ow!" it owed excitedly in Adrian Walyon’s arms, expressing its current mood with its own voice.
Adrian Walyon ruffled its fluffy head and tossed it onto the sofa to sit with it, waiting for Sumr Sutton.
After sitting on the sofa for about ten minutes, there was no sound of Sumr Sutton’s car at the front door.
Adrian Walyon’s eyes darkened slightly.
The journey from Royal Delight to Morning Garden doesn’t take long. Normally, Sumr Sutton would arrive within half an hour and never exceeded this ti.
It’s already past ten, so traffic congestion should not be an issue.
Forty minutes have already passed...
Adrian Walyon wondered if sothing might have happened on the road, so he waited a little longer.
However, after waiting an additional twenty minutes, the area outside the villa remained quiet, with no car sounds.
Picking up his phone, Adrian Walyon dialed Sumr Sutton’s number.
The phone rang for a long ti, yet it went unanswered.
Adrian Walyon stared quietly at the constantly flashing connection prompt on the phone screen for quite a while, his heart sinking.
Suddenly, he stood up and dashed outside the villa.
The car door opened, the sports car roared, and as he drove towards Sumr Sutton’s company, Adrian Walyon searched along the way.
There’s not many side roads or shortcuts on the route Sumr Sutton took to the company, just one road.
It’s the sa road Adrian is currently on.
If she was coming back from the company, they would definitely cross paths on this road.
However, Adrian Walyon had already driven the car to outside Royal Delight Tower but still did not see Sumr Sutton’s car.
Royal Delight Tower’s lights were all off, with only a few security guards on night duty.
Adrian Walyon got out of the car and inquired about the situation, "Are there still any people left who haven’t left work?"
"No, it’s this late, everyone left a long ti ago," replied the guard.
"Did you see this lady leave?" Adrian Walyon showed the guard a photo of Sumr Sutton on his phone.
The guard rembered Sumr Sutton due to her outstanding performance in the intern competition recently, and she was also quite morable in appearance.
The guard actually didn’t see Sumr Sutton leave tonight, but it seems that her car drove out of the garage about an hour ago.
Seriously recalling, the two guards took Adrian Walyon to review the surveillance footage.
The video showed Sumr Sutton’s car leaving the garage a few minutes past ten, but she wasn’t in the car.
Sumr Sutton’s silhouette wasn’t visible in the surveillance, but the person in the driver’s seat was a man. Although the face wasn’t clear, it was visibly male.
Adrian Walyon returned to his car, not leaving imdiately, but contemplating tonight’s events.
His long fingers tightly gripped the steering wheel, and he suddenly recalled the words the Old Master Walyon said during the argunt last night.
His dark eyes narrowed slowly, and turning the car around, Adrian Walyon drove towards the Walyon Family estate with a roar...
