His expression was indifferent, as though he had little interest in chatting with Candice Yancey and the others. Amadeus Yancey occasionally raised his eyes, looking towards the entrance, as if waiting for soone.
He saw Alfred Garland rushing in.
Amadeus Yancey narrowed his eyes slightly and said to Candice Yancey, who was still chatting warmly with others, "Aunt, take your ti. I have sothing to attend to, I’ll step away for a mont."
Candice Yancey stopped talking with Stephanie Tanzil and the others, and hurriedly asked him, "Is Nathalie not here yet?"
"Mmm." Amadeus Yancey also felt that it had been quite a while, far exceeding the ten minutes Nathalie Quinlan had ntioned before. He was always calm, with emotions not showing on his face, and even if he was worried inside, nothing unusual could be seen from his appearance: "I’ll go out and take a look."
Candice Yancey didn’t notice anything unusual, assuming that Nathalie was delayed due to traffic and hadn’t arrived yet.
Without thinking too much, she instructed reassuringly, "Let know when Nathalie arrives, I’ll co out to et her."
"Alright."
The young man agreed readily, speaking succinctly, lifting his eyelids, his deep gaze glanced at Candice Yancey, nodded at Stephanie Tanzil and the others, and said with utmost politeness, "Then Aunt, Mrs. Tanzil, you continue your talk."
Stephanie Tanzil, who was nad, nodded, watching him walk away, couldn’t help but sigh for her foolish nephew, silently lighting three incense sticks.
Ah, look at his deanor and elegance.
Her son, Zeus Tanzil, even if he tried for ten years, might not be able to match up; encountering such a rival in love, he has no chance to turn things around!
Truly pitiful!
And indeed unlucky.
She could only say that Zeus’ taste was too good; falling in love at first sight with anyone else wouldn’t have been bad, but falling for Nathalie Quinlan at first sight destined him for a tragedy.
...
"Amadeus."
On the other side, Alfred Garland had already walked up to Amadeus Yancey, clearly uneasy, calling out to him.
A bad premonition faintly rose in Amadeus Yancey’s heart, but he remained calm, asking in a deep voice, "What’s going on? She hasn’t arrived yet?"
"No." Alfred Garland shook his head, with a wooden expression, not appearing very clever. He looked up again, sowhat anxiously telling him, "Master Amadeus, I waited outside for Ms. Quinlan as you instructed, but couldn’t wait any longer and called her. Nathalie didn’t pick up."
"...Do you think sothing might have happened to Ms. Quinlan?"
Alfred Garland really didn’t want to say it, yet he was genuinely worried about Nathalie Quinlan: "I called her three tis, and Ms. Quinlan didn’t answer any of them."
Nathalie Quinlan isn’t soone who doesn’t answer calls.
At this mont, Amadeus Yancey’s eyes darkened slightly. He took out his phone, began making inquiries, and didn’t forget to ask Alfred, "Are you sure you called three tis and she didn’t pick up?"
Alfred Garland shook his head, his face serious, and said with certainty, "Not a single answer."
Just then, Sadam Vinson and Govert Griffin hadn’t arrived yet.
Amadeus Yancey made a phone call to Sadam Vinson, which connected imdiately.
"Hello, Amadeus, we’re almost there!" Sadam Vinson’s voice was loud.
Amadeus Yancey’s eyes were half-lowered, masking any emotion within them. The white shirt he wore was immaculately pressed, with not a single crease at the collar, exuding outstanding charisma like a noble orchid. His voice slightly deepened as he said, "Check Nathalie Quinlan’s phone location, and be quick."
"Uh, why check Nathalie’s phone?" Sadam Vinson was still babbling on the other end.
Amadeus Yancey had already hung up the phone, pulled up his phone book, and called soone from the traffic departnt: "Could you help find soone?"
...
In Beijing, for Amadeus Yancey to find soone was a matter of just a few words.
The car accident at the intersection not far from the Imperial Hotel made quite a stir, with the large truck having the oddest driving trajectory.
He hadn’t waited for a few minutes before he received a call back from the other party.
