Wooing My ex-wife (Gwendolyn and Maverick) novel Chapter 848

Cedrick let out a nearly imperceptible sigh of relief. “So that’s how it is. Don’t hang up just yet. I’ll have Swain look into it.”

Having been dozing off for a while, Swain was startled by the sudden ringing of the phone on the table. He woke up instantly from his slumber and hastily picked up the call.

“What can I do for you, Boss?”

“Look up the recent updates on Charles as soon as possible.”

Charles?

Swain had been in a deep sleep, so it took him a moment to gather his bearings.

Considering that there was no immediate response from the other end, Cedrick’s voice suddenly turned cold. “Do I need to repeat myself a second time?” A chilling aura emanated from the other end of the phone, causing Swain to shiver uncontrollably. He quickly responded, “I’ll look into it right away.”

After spending some time tapping away at the keyboard, Swain reported, “I found it. Charles left the country on a private plane at three in the afternoon. However, it’s unclear which country he went to.”

After receiving the news, Cedrick hung up the phone and called Gwendolyn back.

“You heard it, Charles is not in the country right now.”

His tone carried a hint of relaxation and pride. Gwendolyn shook her head. “Got it. Bye.”

Once again, Gwendolyn dialed Whitney’s number, asking, “Whitney, where are you? I’m coming to find. you.”

Whitney sent her location.

Soon, Gwendolyn arrived. Upon seeing the private room, she felt a sense of discomfort.

Gwendolyn could understand the feeling of helplessness that came from not being able to find a loved.

Not everyone could have the courage to disregard everything and go to a strange country for one person.

“Are you okay?”

Whitney shook her head, her face etched with sorrow as if she had lost something most precious.

“I’m so scared, Gwendolyn. I don’t know what to do. I don’t know where he’s gone, what’s happened to him, or even if he’s safe now… Do you think someone might have kidnapped him? Could those people be after his wealth?”

Gwendolyn comforted her before informing, “I’ve already asked Cedrick to look into Charles’ movements these past few days.”

“Where did he go today?”

Grabbing Gwendolyn’s hand, Whitney shook it excitedly as if seeking an answer.

“He took a private jet and left the country at three in the afternoon, unknown.”

Upon hearing this, Whitney sat down, feeling lost.

He left at three? At that time, he should have been able to contact me. Why didn’t he let me know?

“He must have had something to attend to when he left. There’s no need to worry,” stated Gwendolyn. getting late. You should hurry home. It’s not safe for a girl to be out this late.”

Just then, a phone rang suddenly. Whitney immediately picked up her phone, assuming it was him. However, it was a call from a business partner.

The ringtone ended as Whitney picked up the phone. “Mr. Lowen, Mr. Newton is not in the country today. If you want to arrange a meeting with him, it’s better to wait a few days.”

The person on the other end of the phone was somewhat disappointed. “How unfortunate. I was just planning to discuss future plans with him. In that case, please make sure to contact me when Mr. Newtor returns.”

“Sure, thank you for understanding, Mr. Lowen.”

After Whitney hung up the phone, her expression once again turned uneasy.

“Do you want me to take you home?” Gwendolyn asked worriedly.

Whitney shook her head. “No need. I’m already grateful for your help in finding information about Charles. I didn’t expect you to come all this way. I’m really sorry. I’ll be heading back soon.”
