Let's Get Married novel Chapter 797

After hanging up, Mr. Devon calls Mellie and the publicity agent into his office. "Don't tell anyone about this. There's no need to call the police for now. Just wait."

"Wait?" Mellie frowns and asks, "Mr. Devon, is it a little..."

"I told you to wait!" Mr. Devon scolds in a low voice. He is in a bad mood and more anxious than anyone else. "Don't ask anything else. Delete the surveillance records and leave."

Mellie and the agent exchange a glance. Both of them still have something to say, but they don't know how to say it now.

Mellie really wants to be like usual. She doesn't need to give her opinion and just follows orders, but it is about her life. She can't afford to take it lightly. "Mr. Devon, if something happens to Stella, I will be held responsible. If I don't call the police right now..."

"No matter what happens, I'll take care of it. Don't worry. Do you need to record this to put yourself at ease?" Mr. Devon glares at her, wishing she would wilt under his glare.

Hearing what he says, Mellie heaves a sigh of relief, "I was thinking too much. I'll go."

After they leave, Mr. Devon sits on the sofa angrily. He looks up at the clock on the wall in front of him. As time passes, he calms down.

Everything must be fine. Otherwise, not just Stella, the company will be doomed as well.

...

On the other side, after Pehry learns that Stella is missing, he immediately sends someone to investigate. Back then, he thought that it was the enemy's doing, but in the end the investigation reveals that it is his family.

He sneers and throws aside the record in his hand. It turns out to be his grandfather's men.

"Mr. Pehry, do you need us to take care of it?"

"No need." Pehry's voice is cold as he looks at the black cell phone in his palm. He looks gloomy. "Stella will be released. Find someone to keep an eye on her. Don't make any mistakes. The newspaper will let the reporters report. Find Mr. Devon at JM and give him some sweeteners."

"Yes!"

After the secretary leaves, sitting in the big office and looking at the scenery outside the French window, he feels stressed and suffocating as if there is a stone on his chest.

At the same time, he receives a call from Jasmine.

At this sensitive time....

Pehry picks up at once. Wondering if something happened to her, he sounds anxious, "Jasmine, what's wrong with you?"

Jasmine just finishes today's class. She hesitates but calls him anyway. She wants to know if he will return to the villa today. She is stunned by his anxious tones. "I just finished class. Is ... Is there something wrong?"

Pehry is relieved at her answer. He knows that he made a big thing of it, so he covers up the panic. "It's fine, just asking."

Is he just asking?

Pehry is never nervous for no reason. She can tell that there is a tinge of panic in his voice and asks, "Really?"

"Yes, are you done?" Pehry changes the topic. When thinking about what happened to Stella, he offers, "I'll ask the driver to pick you up. You can come back today."

"Back to the villa?"

"Yes," he replies. "Wait at school, don't go anywhere."

Jasmine doesn't know why. His instructions make her feel like a child. She can't help but laugh and says, "I know."
