Chapter 225 The Face That He Thought About Day and Night
The man’s sharp eyes suddenly widened, and his expression suddenly became serious.
“Just now, Mr. Harrison called and said that Miss Shelton didn’t go to work today, and he couldn’t get in touch with her…” Before Sam could finish his words, the phone in his hand had been taken away by Huston.
He picked it up and walked into the office. “What’s going on?”
“I should be the one asking you that. Evelyn is off work today. I thought she was late, so it’s abnormal that she didn’t come at this time. With her character, she wouldn’t do such a thing. Why don’t you call her and ask?” Matt Harrison thought that they had quarreled, so he didn’t take it seriously.
However, Huston’s mind was buzzing due to this word. Because he had not been able to find her when he had called Evelyn this morning.
“Got it.” With a snap, he hung up the phone.
Huston turned on his phone’s positioning system and located Evelyn’s phone. It showed that it was Royal Villa.
After receiving this message, the man’s face became worse. If she was at home, she would answer the phone. So there was only one possibility–she didn’t take her mobile phone out.
They didn’t quarrel, and they didn’t even have any conflicts. Why did Evelyn suddenly go missing?
Or did something happen during his absence in the two days?
All sorts of speculations, suspicions, and all sorts of other possibilities swirled in his mind. For the first time, Huston felt a strong sense of powerlessness.
After the meeting, he completed the handover of work and booked the latest flight back to Jewel City.
When the plane landed, the cold air blew. Jewel City was nearly seven or eight degrees colder than Quartz City. Huston wrapped himself in a coat and got into the caravan from the VIP passage.

Looking at the man who hadn’t had a good rest for two or three days, Sam couldn’t bear to persuade him. “President Lloyd, please take a nap in the car.”
The man just nodded slightly to show that he had heard it, but he had no intention of going to sleep.
The car started, and the dim light from the roof fell on the man’s chiseled facial features, which were tinged with a trace of loneliness that made people speechless.
The air seemed to have frozen. Sam knew very well what Evelyn meant to Huston. Now that she had suddenly disappeared, even he was sweating. “President Lloyd, should we ask a friend from Police Department for help to find Miss Shelton?”
The man blinked his deep eyes. “Not for the time being. Let’s go home first.”
His slender index finger, which was casually placed on the back of the car seat, moved slightly. He hoped that he could see the face that he had been missing day and night as soon as he got home. It must let him see it.

The car drove from the airport to Royal Villa for nearly an hour. The car drove into the courtyard. Before the driver could get out of the car and open the door for him, the man could not wait to get out.
It was not convenient for Sam and the driver to follow him. They watched as Huston hurried into the villa. Five minutes later, he came out with a grave expression.
Sam’s heart sank. He knew that Miss Shelton wasn’t at home.
