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 game of snooker after dinner. It’s been so long since we’ve had a game together.” 

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 inviting me out for a meal and not her?” 

*She has switched her phone off today.” Evan replied honestly as he continued with a helpless tone, “I’m pretty sure she’s avoiding me again.” 

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 came to 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 some other time.” 

“Alright, just look into it. Call me if 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 time together, he might actually be serious about her when he showed that he cared about her, right? 

Evan’s gaze looked extremely serious. 

Evan immediately drove to Anya’s apartment after getting out of Dan’s office. 

Anya’s aunt initially did not want him to enter but after hearing that Anya was missing, she panicked and immediately opened the door for him. 

The children was quite shy around him when the door opened. However, after a brief moment, they came over to hug his leg. Their mother told them to stay away from the man. However, the truth was, they quite fancy the man. He was not a bad

person since he bought them toys, 

Evan’s heart trembled when the children hugged his leg. His heart felt slightly warm but it was not the time for 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 home safely.” 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.
