Randy gives Carmen a look signaling to her to leave.
Randy walks out once he settles Carmen.
“Tell me what’s all this about?” Alex twists the phone in his hand and Randy didn’t dare to look at the bent out of shape phone, it’s too cruel.
“Mrs. Alex is missing.” Although Randy knows that saying this might offend Alex, but with things the way they are, he had no choice.
“I’m giving you the rest of today to look for her. Otherwise, you don’t have to come back too.” Alex says coldly. His chilling eyes are shooting out daggers. Especially the last portion, it is laced full of threat.
Randy’s heart trembles, though he feels that this is unreasonable, he nods helplessly.
The Director really knows how to assign him tasks. For him to find Miya within today, it is as good as asking for his life.
Alex feels that his brain is going to explode. He knows that he must have fallen for the bait-a-switch. Carmen wasn’t caught by Augus. He used Carmen’s phone to be a guise. His real target is Miya.
True enough, the Augus is cunning and ruthless. He shouldn’t have let him leave so easily. To think that he took away his woman just like that.
The more he thinks about it, the angrier he became. He clenches his fists so tightly till the fingernails dig into his flesh until the marks are blood red.
Seeing this, Randy’s heart is torn with anxiety. He knows how important Miya is to Alex. Now that Miya is missing, the Director’s heart must be near to exploding.
“Director, I know that you are very worried, but you must not worry at the expense of your body. Otherwise, when Missus comes back and sees you in this condition, she’ll be very worried about you. I’m sure you don’t want Missus to be worried.” Randy is unsettled for a moment and eventually says these.
He doesn’t expect that what he says is rather effective.
Alex calms down quickly but his expression is still very tense.
Randy can relax a little but before this matter is resolved, he cannot totally relax.
“Why are you still standing here? Quickly send some people to look for him.” Alex glares at Randy with fiery eyes and orders.
“Okay, I’ll go immediately.” Randy runs like he is fleeing the scene of a crime. Afterall there is a huge issue waiting for him to settle.
…
At the film set.
“Cut!” Hamish looks at the scene and shouts aloud.
With Hamish’s shout, Aileen, who is dressed in the traditional clothing, immediately jumps out of Aaron’s embrace like she totally despises him.
Aaron is naturally upset and hurriedly grabs her hand, “what’s the meaning of your expression?”
