Chapter 129
While Selena was dreaming away in comfort, John was sitting on the sofa with a serious look on hisface back in Fowler Residence, whereas Helen was sighing in despair. Yoel was bent over whilestanding in front of John. “Mr. Fowler, I already did a headcount on the people who were transferredback. Aside from Young Master Pierre, Miss Selena Yard, who is the president of JNS Corporationalso went missing. However, the rest of them were all found, and were sent back to their homes.”
“What?” Helen’s head shot up.
On the other hand, Meredith was stunned motionless while descending the stairs upon hearing thenews. Since both Pierre and Selena are missing, might they be together? Why were they together?Did the heavens arrange for this to happen, or was it mere coincidence?
Rooted to her spot, Meredith felt as if the world had lost its color. She was supposed to be enjoyingher wedding night with Pierre, as well as indulge in the admiration and envy of other people forhaving become his bride and the woman blessed with the utmost bliss.
However, everything was ruined when someone suddenly fired a gun. She spent the night runningfor her life in a flurry of panic, only to find out later on that she had lost Pierre. At that moment, shewas no longer concerned about the wedding, nor was she worried about looking like an idiot; aslong as Pierre was safe, everything would be fine. In spite of her wishes, reports of hisdisappearance alongside Selena had her world crashing down. She couldn’t help but think shemight be a fool after all, and a hopeless one at that.
“Why are you standing there doing nothing? Go search for him! Seal off seas surrounding the islandto make a blanket search! Mobilize all our men for the search, as well as start an investigation onwhoever was behind this! Nobody is allowed to use the phone in the house. Just put up with it!”John sounded exasperated.
On one hand, he was angry that the enemy would choose to cause trouble at Pierre’s wedding, buton the other hand, he was also worried about his son. Although they didn’t share the best ofrelationships, Pierre was still his son. Meanwhile, Helen’s nerves were all strung up.
Back on the island, there was a European-styled mansion built in minimalist fashion. In the brightly-lit living room, Pierre smashed a cup on the floor while bellowing, “You bunch of idiots! Did I not tellyou to look before you shoot? Are you all blind?”
They couldn’t help but feel aggrieved. In response, Pierre kicked the man nearest to him over. “Howdare you find excuses for yourselves? You’re just a bunch of trash! Get the f*ck out of here!” Themen scrambled their way to the exit, leaving Pierre standing there, outraged. He didn’t care if theyhurt him, but they wound up hurting Selena in the process.
Selena woke up during noon the next day. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw the sunoutside the window. Its rays shone into the room, warming her up in the process. However, her eyeswent wide by the next instant as she wondered where she was. Am I in a dream? Wasn’t I on adeserted island with Pierre? So why am I lying in bed?novelbin
“Miss Yard, you’re finally awake. Would you like something to eat?” An unfamiliar voice camethrough to her.
Turning around, she saw a woman standing by her bed. She was wearing a facemask, so only hergleaming black eyes were visible. Judging from the wrinkles on her forehead, she didn’t seem thatyoung.
“Where am I?”
“You’re on Mr. Pierre’s private island.”
Selena propped herself up on the bed.
