Chapter 95
Rosalie still felt a little apprehensive about her position. After all, Elliot had almost ended
their relationship because of this woman.
At around midnight, Elliot’s fever subsided, and he finally woke up. Warm orange light lit the room. He sat up and saw Chelsea lying on the edge of the bed, fast asleep.
Elliot frowned, got out of bed, and left the room.
The following morning, Chelsea woke up to an empty bed and an empty heart. Then, she immediately went downstairs to look for Elliot.
Mrs. Cooper was shocked, and she exclaimed, “I’ve been downstairs, but Master Elliot has not come down!”
Chelsea was stunned. “He’s not in the room! I only came down because he was missing.”
Mrs. Cooper became anxious. “Goodness! Master Elliot can’t just disappear into thin air!”
As she said that, Mrs. Cooper ran upstairs. She and Chelsea searched all the rooms on the second floor, but they could not find Elliot.
Chelsea burst into tears. “It’s all my fault… I slept so deeply last night, and I didn’t notice him getting out of bed at all…”
Mrs. Cooper hurried downstairs and said, “I’ll ask the gatekeeper. If Master Elliot went out, there would be a record.”
After a while, Mrs. Cooper got the report from the gatekeeper: Elliot had never left. Mrs. Cooper gathered the servants and began searching the villa.
After half an hour, everyone gathered in the living room.
“He’s not in the front yard.”
“Neither is he in the backyard.”
“No sight of him in the warehouse or parking lot.”
