"What do you mean he's missing?" Stanley's face went dark. "Didn't you guys already arrange for people to investigate his study before I came here?"
"Yes, indeed..."
"What's the result of the investigation?"
"There is indeed a secret door in his study, and we have already opened the secret door. There was lots of money and related evidence in it, and there were also other things in it, unspeakable things."
"Since we already have evidence, then what did you mean that he's missing?" Stanley's voice grew colder, causing Sharon to stare at him with a face full of suspicion.
Although Stanley had concealed his emotions very well, Sharon could still tell that he was anxious and nervous, and she even knew that he was a little angry.
He was never like this before, and Sharon grew more curious about the person on the other end of the line.
The secretary sighed. "We could only blame ourselves for underestimating him. There was evidence that someone had caught him. During the process of leaving, we didn't expect Isai to be so audacious. He had already ordered people to ambush us. When our car passed by and someone rescued him, we also lost a part of our staff."
Stanley closed his eyes, and the veins on his forehead were engorged. How was Isai still alive? He tried every possible way to send him to prison, but in the end, with all the witness and material evidence here, they were messed up and caused him to escape again!
"Have you tried looking for him?"
"Beachmarsh City has been locked down, but we still can't find him."
Even Stanley's breathing was starting to become rapid. Sharon had never seen him like this before, so she was shocked. "What's wrong, Stanley?"
It was only now that Stanley realized Sharon was still by his side. Stanley tried to control his anger and said to the other end of the phone, "Update me if there's any new situation."
"Okay, no problem."
"Isai is missing now. I am afraid that he will retaliate against my family. Please send more people to protect my family."
"We will definitely pay attention to this."
"Thank you."
With that, Stanley hung up the phone. After thinking about it, he called Anthony directly and told him to strengthen security measures. If he really couldn't do it, he would take them out of Beachmarsh City and go somewhere else to stay away from trouble.
Stanley then told Sharon, "Some things happened in Beachmarsh City in the last few months when you weren't here."
"What is it?"
"I took action against Isai and collaborated with some people to end him. I thought that I would send him to prison this time, but I didn't expect that there would be an unexpected turn of events." After Stanley finished, Sharon widened her eyes. "What happened?"
"He ran away."
Sharon's heart was on tenterhooks. "He ran away? Will the kids be fine?"
"That's why I just called Anthony to keep an eye on the kids. I will also give Jimmy a call. There will be more people to protect them. Don't worry. I promise I won't let anything happen to them."
With his reassurance, Sharon began to relax.
However, she had always been worried. Isai was a devil. He was not humane, and it was easy for him to hurt the children. She would rather die than see anything happen to her children.
It was an undeniable fact that Isai was now targeted; he had committed crimes, and the police were arresting him. He would definitely not be as arrogant as before, probably a little meeker than before.
So the two children should be safe for the time being.
After giving it some thought, Sharon finally managed to calm herself down.
She was anxious and moody. Dinner time came, but she couldn't relax, and she didn't have much appetite.
"Are you tired?" Stanley stood up and pushed her into the bedroom. "Take a rest first. I'll be with you later."
Sharon nodded and asked him for his phone, "I'll make a call to the kids. I want to hear their voices..."
From the moment she met Stanley, Sharon hadn't managed to call home. Firstly, it was because Stanley told her that the children were in good condition. Secondly, she was also afraid she couldn't control her emotions when she heard their voices.
Since she couldn't return to them immediately, she could only make a phone call to hear their voices.
Stanley handed her his phone. "Call Anthony. The kids are being taken care of by him."
"Okay."
