Female Novel
Chapter 331
"Erica, how could you think like that? As soon as she becomes the Young Lady of Hanover family,our Shell family will be the great benefactor of their family. We can also benefit from it and we canalso get a better life in the future!"
"No!" Erica stepped back and covered her ears, "You don't know anything. You have never givenme enough money! Even when you gave me Kimberly's money back then, it was still not enough!Mom, I don't like the way we are living at all. Do you know how rich my classmates are and howcapable their parents are? I... I also want to be like them, but... why must it be Kimberly? How is herlife so different from mine? I am clearly more excellent than her."
Speaking of this, Erica seemed unable to control herself and she screamed a few times. Then, sheturned around and ran out.
"Erica!"
Mrs. Shell wanted to stop her, but Erica was at a young age. Thus, she ran so fast that shedisappeared as soon as she got out of the house.
"Forget it. She's just a little girl. Once she has thought it through, she will know that it's a good thingfor us too," Mrs. Shell thought.
Thinking that she could repay her gambling debts, and that she could take advantage of theHanover family's influence to improve the Shell family's status, Mrs. Shell felt very happy in herheart. On the other side, Kimberly was in a miserable state.
After Vera gave Benedict a call, he soon arrived at the place she had mentioned.
"Why isn't she here?" Benedict asked with a serious look.
Vera was so anxious that she almost cried, "I have looked around but I can't find her. When I calledyou, she was still here but she suddenly disappeared into thin air, and I can't find her either... I don'tknow where she went... I'm sorry, it's my fault for not keeping an eye on her. If anything happens toher, I... I will never forgive myself."
Benedict glanced at Vera. Seeing that she was so anxious that her eyes had turned red and hertears were about to fall, he felt that she must be extremely nervous. He didn't blame her, but hewhispered, "Please calm down. It's no use worrying now. The top priority is to find her first. Sinceyou are so close to her, you should calm down first and think about whether there is any place shewould go.
"Are there any possible places?"
Vera was stumped by this question. Although she had a good relationship with Kimberly, they hadnot known each other for a long time. She couldn't say that she knew Kimberly very well.novelbin
If they were to talk about a place where Kimberly would possibly go, Vera really couldn't answer it.
It was probably Sylvia who knew Kimberly better. Although Sylvia was not a kind person, she hadbeen pretending in front of Kimberly for many years after all. She would know something aboutKimberly since they had known each other for so many years.
Asking Sylvia was the best solution.
However, since Kimberly and Sylvia had quarreled and became rivals in love, it was not appropriatefor them to ask Sylvia for help. Vera was afraid that Sylvia would have ulterior motives instead.What if Kimberly fell into Sylvia's trap?
Seeing Vera frown, Benedict guessed that she probably had no idea. He thought for a moment andsaid softly, "Don't worry. I've already sent someone here. They will search the area. Once there's
any news, they'll report it to me immediately."
Vera looked at Benedict gratefully and said, "Vice President Yardley, thank you very much. ThankGod, you are here. Otherwise, I wouldn't know what to do."
"Let's look around again. Let's not miss out any corners."
"All right," Vera nodded.
After that, they went their separate ways. Vera felt that Benedict's words were reasonable. Shedidn't pay attention to the corners when she looked for Kimberly earlier. If she paid attention thistime, would she be able to find her?
When she thought of this, she rekindled her hope and followed the alley in search of Kimberly.
After taking a few steps, Benedict's phone rang all of a sudden. He picked it up and asked, "How isit?" Valeria said, "We've already searched the area nearby according to your instructions. However,I think you'd better check on the surveillance footage if possible."
Upon hearing this, Benedict frowned slightly and said, "She has disappeared for only less than anhour. It's not practical to check the surveillance footage. Moreover, there are some blind spots insome of the corners. Thus, I don't think the surveillance cameras can capture her. Send morepeople here and ask them to search around. Of course, don't forget to ask the people in the storesnearby and report to me immediately if there's any news."
Valeria said, "Got it."
After hanging up the phone, Benedict looked around and felt a little uneasy.
"Kimberly, please be safe."
He didn't know how long he had been searching, but Benedict still couldn't find Kimberly. His mobilephone was silent. Benedict was calm at first, but now he was nervous.
Where on earth did Kimberly go?
Benedict stopped and took out his mobile phone as he couldn't help but call Vera to ask about thesituation.
Although he knew that if Vera had found her, she would definitely call to inform him. However, hestill carried the hope that maybe she had found Kimberly, but she didn't have the time to contacthim.
Vera was very excited when she received the phone call from Benedict, "Have you foundKimberly?"
Hearing this, Benedict knew that Vera hadn't found Kimberly as well.
"You couldn't find her as well, could you?" Hearing that Benedict was silent, Vera knew that hehadn't found Kimberly as well. She was so anxious that she almost cried, "What should I do? Thereare so many people looking for her, yet there is still no news. Where can she go? Vice PresidentYardley... It's all my fault for not keeping an eye on her."
It was Vera's first time to be so out of control. Benedict was also upset at first, but when she saidthat, he suddenly didn't know what to say to comfort her. He was also anxious as he couldn't findKimberly.
Benedict looked around, pursed his thin lips, and finally said, "Don't worry, I'll find her. I definitelywill."
After that, he hung up the phone.
Benedict then continued moving forward and asked a woman nearby a few questions.
"Excuse me, Miss. May I ask if you have seen a girl..." Benedict briefly described the clothes thatKimberly was wearing on that day, and then described her facial features.
The woman blinked her eyes and looked clueless. Benedict sighed in his heart. Just as he thoughtthat he couldn't get an answer from her, she suddenly said, "Oh, are you looking for the girl in awhite dress? I just saw her!"
Hearing this, Benedict's face changed, "You saw her? Where was she?" "I saw her entering a car. Aluxury car!"
"She got in a car?" Benedict frowned as he thought, "And it's a luxury car? Then, it doesn't seemlike she has gotten into a taxi. Whose car did she get into then?"
Thinking of this, Benedict's face changed.
