You would never guess what Troy was going through just by looking at him.
When Isabella walked in, it took him a few seconds to notice her.

Then she saw him suddenly lean forward and brace both hands on the desk. His head dropped as he took deep breaths. Each one came faster than the last. Soon he had to loosen his tie.
At 6’2″, Troy usually looked tall and confident. His tailored suit made him look calm and controlled. But now his arms were tense, the muscles tight under the fabric.
His breathing grew louder. Slowly, his face turned pale. The veins on his forehead pulsed sharply, as if he had just suffered a terrible shock or seen something truly frightening.
Isabella froze. She hurried over, her heart tightening. In a low voice, she asked, “Mr. Winston, what happened?”
Troy seemed to wake from a daze when he heard her. He slowly lifted his head.
The look in his eyes was cold and fierce. Isabella jumped back without thinking. Her whole body stiffened.
“M-Mr. Winston, what’s wrong?”
“Floyd and Esme are gone.” Even after saying it, Troy still couldn’t believe it. His mind felt blank.
How could his children disappear?
Before leaving for her business trip, Ayla had told him clearly-take good care of the twins. But now they were gone. Right under his watch.
They had checked the security cameras. There was no sign of the children.
The bodyguards said the same thing.
The housekeeper, Martin, who had arranged to help guard the house, had fainted from the shock.
Several nannies were crying in the villa. They were shaking with fear. Losing the twins was a responsibility they could not bear. A few had fainted as well.
Isabella was stunned. How could this happen? The heirs of the Winstons had gone missing? Who had the nerve to kidnap them?
The twins had been inside Blue Villa, right in the center of the city. It wasn’t some remote place. It was impossible to kidnap them.
“Mr. Winston, are you sure?” Isabella asked quickly. As she spoke, she was already moving. “I’ll go check right now and confirm it.”
With that, Isabella hurriedly ran away.
Troy forced himself to steady his breathing after the shock. “I’m coming with you,” he said quietly.
Moments later, employees on the executive floor saw their CEO step out of his office. His face looked dark enough to kill someone. His stride was fast and sharp. Isabella followed right behind him. She was usually smiling and graceful, the kind of person who hid everything behind a polite face. But now her expression was tight, all composure gone. She hurried after Troy like something terrible had happened.

The entire floor fell silent. No one dared make a sound. Troy was already intimidating on normal days. Now no one even dared move. Only after the elevator doors closed did whispers finally start. “What happened?”
No one had any idea. Winston Group was a giant company. The system functioned flawlessly. Problems rarely reached the surface. So what could make Troy show his anger so openly?
Inside the car, the atmosphere was heavy. Troy sat in the back seat, silent and cold. The driver gripped the steering wheel tightly. Sweat covered his forehead.
In the passenger seat, Isabella barely dared breathe.
The Troy she knew was ruthless and efficient. When he wanted something, he went after it fast and without mercy. Years ago, he fought his way past the other candidates and took control of the company. Even after winning, he showed no mercy. He pushed the others completely out of the core management.
