"How long has she been missing?"
Jack asked in his deep voice.
Sophie thought for a while, then said, "About 10 minutes."
Jack said immediately, "Brent, Mr. Ward, check the compound, I will ask the security to check their cameras."
"Jack, I will come with you!"
Sophie followed Jack, both hands clenched onto her phone, her face was filled with worries, "Daisy, you have to be okay."
"Mom, don't worry." Jack tried to comfort her.
But he knew, it wouldn't work this way.
Daisy was a good nanny, she could endure a lot, and took care of his mother better than anyone else, naturally, Sophie treated her like her own daughter.
The security's office.
As soon as the manager heard their story, he immediately started to play back their recordings, but the results were disappointing.
Daisy was nowhere to be seen in the tapes.
This meant that she didn't leave through the main gate.
The security system of TM Villa District was very good, anyone who wasn't living in this compound, or who didn't have the directions from one of the residents, had trouble getting inside.
The Parry family was a good example for that.
"Are there any other paths in this district?" Jack asked with knitted brows.
Just as the security manager was thinking about that, Brent and Mr. Ward came back.
"Young Master, we found Daisy's phone."
Brent handed Jack a broken phone, "We found it on the lake side, halfway up the hills."
When he said that, the security manager suddenly called out, "Right! When we were recreating the lake side, the cost performance wasn't very high, so we kept it as a scenery. It's a very big lake that surrounds this district, so whenever we do our rounds, we would skip that part."
"Let's go!"
Jack didn't say more, turned around and rushed out of the office.
A place that was skipped during rounds, a normal person wouldn't imagine to get into the district at such a place, but whoever took Daisy, was clearly not a normal person.
After they sent Sophie back.
Mr. Ward said, "Young Master, Daisy has already been taken out of the district, it will be like searching for a needle in the hay."
"Even if that's how it is, we have to look for her!"
Jack was determined, his voice was carrying anger, "She entered the door to our family, so she is part of us now, I cannot allow her to be in danger. Find the tapes to all cameras in the whole town, even if this person has submerged, I will find him!"
His voice was clattering, endlessly determined.
The Rolls Royce left the district.
Mr. Ward sent out Daisy's picture, and the video recordings of the cameras were sent to his phone.
When the car arrived down the hill, Mr. Ward's eyes lit up.
"Young Master, we have found the person who too her, it's a guy."
Jack took the phone over and looked at the picture, his brows knitted.
The video looked like it was taken on the road down the hills of TM Villa District.
In the video, he could see a very skinny mid aged man who was looking around himself, seeming very careful.
And Daisy was just behind him.
The two of them didn't look like they were in a struggle, on the contrary, Daisy gave Jack a feeling that she was following the man.
And the two of them didn't have a wide gap, Daisy used to practice Sanda back in her days, so if she really was in danger, she would be able to save herself.
But then again, she sent Sophie a message for help!
"With Daisy's abilities, what could this man possibly do to her?"
Mr. Ward was thinking about the same thing.
"Let's use this video and follow up with that, we need to find her first!" Jack said in a deep voice.
Since she asked for help, then it must mean that she was in danger, the most urgent thing was for them to find her first.
Jack didn't search deeply about Daisy's past.
Even back then when Daisy suddenly appeared on the construction site with Brent, surrounded and beaten by Diego and his people, he hadn't asked her more.
That wasn't too long ago, and now this happened!
