Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 693

After Ariah heard Jimmy's question, she couldn't help but glance at him as she thought that Emily did look like someone who would escape.

But, how did Emily managed to escape when the security at Lennon's villa was heavily guarded?

Just as Ariah was thinking about it, Lennon's voice rang out. Surprised, Lennon looked at Jimmy and asked, "How did you know that Emily had escaped?"

"It's just my instinctive reaction as a policeman." Then, Jimmy continued, "Whenever I go to an unfamiliar place, I would always observe the area first. Earlier, I realized that your servants and bodyguards seemed to be looking for someone."

"And you speculated that they are looking for Emily?"

"Didn't you just say that Emily isn't at home?" As Jimmy replied, he shrugged.

For a moment, Lennon stared at Jimmy and said with a smile, "You're right. Emily did escape when I wasn't aware. I ordered everyone to search for her, but it was a wild goose chase, and we have no idea where she is hiding."

Softly, Jimmy muttered, "The fact that you told me all these... are you trying to tell me that Emily isn't here, and it would be best if I head back?"

"Mr. Hudson, I think you had misunderstood my intention. I'm not trying to drive you away. Instead, I would like to ask your subordinates to head over to the mountains at the back to look for her."

However, Jimmy was a little surprised that Lennon would make such a request.

Meanwhile, Lennon sighed. "The back mountain is a forest that is yet to be developed, and there might be wild beasts. If Emily really did hide there, I'm afraid that something would happen to her. If I were to gather more manpower to find her, I would have a greater chance of finding her. That's why I decided to make this request."

Immediately, Ariah took a step forward and said, "No problem, we will help to find her."

The most important thing right now was to find Emily.

With a frown, Jimmy remained silent.

Hurriedly, Ariah uttered, "Let's go look for her now then. We have to find her before it gets dark. Otherwise, she will be in danger..."

"Mr. Lennon." As Jimmy sighed, he stood up. "May I ask, what was it that made you think Emily had run to the mountain at the back?"

In fact, Lennon knew Jimmy was suspicious, so he took them to the back door without saying anything.

It was Emily's footprints.

"The reason why I decided to target the back mountain as the focus of my search was that these footprints are heading toward that direction." Then, Lennon pointed at the mountain. "That is the only area that is not guarded. If she were to get out of my surveillance, that would be the best way."

Immediately, Ariah tugged on Jimmy's arm and whispered, "Whether he's lying or not, we have to go and look for Emily."

After a pause, Ariah was afraid that Jimmy would go back on his words, so she added, "If Emily really were to escape, she definitely would've tried to contact me, but she hasn't contacted me yet."

It proved that Emily was definitely was not trying to run away.

At that moment, Jimmy knew that Ariah would be worried if they didn't try to look for Emily, so after he thought for a moment, he nodded and said, "We can help to look for Emily, but we must get out of the forest before it gets dark. I don't want you to be in danger."

"No problem. We will definitely get out of there before it gets dark. I promise." Happily, Ariah

agreed.

After a quick discussion, Jimmy ordered all the policemen to follow Lennon's men into the forest. However, after several hours of searching, they didn't find any trace of Emily. In fact, they couldn't even find a single person in there.

In the end, Jimmy had no choice but to bring Ariah out of the forest before the sky turned dark.

Grateful for the help, Lennon even wanted to ask his butler to give Jimmy and Ariah a gift, but Jimmy turned him down, then left with Ariah.

The moment Jimmy and Ariah drove off, Lennon ordered the butler in a low voice, "Find someone to follow behind them quietly."

Confused, the butler asked, "Sir, why..."

"Emily must have contacted her friends right after she escaped, and Miss Myers is her closest friend, so I might as well just sit and wait for the right time, then go to her place directly to get Emily back."

"Sir, you're indeed brilliant."

Hurriedly, the butler went to find someone to trail behind Jimmy and Ariah.

On the way back, Ariah was down in spirits, and she repeatedly sighed, "I'm so worried about

Emily. I hope she's fine, otherwise..."

Suddenly, Ariah stopped as she didn't want herself to think about nonsense.

Then, Ariah thought of something and frowned again. "If Emily already had a fiance a long time ago, then what's the matter between her and Kobi?"
