Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 770

They couldn't possibly break into the house, so Ruben suggested, "Why don't we turn back?"

Vincent frowned, and it was obvious that he didn't want to leave.

Sighing, Ruben advised, "It's getting late. Maybe she's asleep."

"It's only 9 pm. She doesn't go to bed so early."

"Maybe she was out with her friends?"

"Well wait then."

"What?"

Ruben was completely speechless.

Vincent was known to be impatient, so Ruben couldn't help but feel shocked that he was willing to wait for Elaine.

After waiting for another ten minutes or so, Ruben rebuked impatiently, "What if it's Howard who comes back before Elaine? What should we do then? You don't want him to know that you're pretending to be him yet, do you? Let's leave. We can come another day."

After everything he said, the only reply he received was, "Call the mole you planted beside Howard and ask him what time Howard will get off work."

Ruben looked askance at him.

Then, he took out his phone and made a call. As he listened on, he frowned and ended the call abruptly.

"What did he say?" Vincent looked over and asked.

Keeping the phone in his pocket, Ruben furrowed his eyebrows. "He said that Howard went on a business trip this afternoon, and he's not in Beachmarsh City."

No wonder no one answered the door.

"Maybe Elaine went with Howard." Ruben shrugged. "How about we come again in a few days?"

Without a word, Vincent turned around to leave.

"Hey, where are you going?" Ruben immediately caught up with him.

As soon as they returned to the villa, Vincent shut himself in the study. Morgan approached Ruben and asked, "What's the matter?"

He wondered if they had stumbled upon any problem because Vincent didn't look so good.

Ruben was also confused. "I don't know. We didn't see the person we wanted to meet, then he suddenly decided to come back. He didn't even talk all the way back, so I don't know what he's thinking."

As soon as he finished his words, the door of the study was abruptly opened. With that, Reuben and Morgan jumped back in fright as they were stuck to the door eavesdropping.

Walking out with a blank expression on his face, Vincent headed towards the main door.

Ruben kept up with him tiresomely, "Where are you going this time?"

"She didn't go with Howard," said the Vincent in a flat tone.

"So did you come back to check the surveillance?"

Vincent nodded.

"Okay. What did you find?"

"She only saw Howard off at the elevator, and they didn't leave together. Besides, not long after Howard left, she went out too."

Ruben immediately understood what he meant. "So she should still be outside now, and we're going to wait for her until she goes home, right?"

Vincent nodded his head. "Yes."

Looking at the night sky outside, Ruben huffed, "Are we still going there today?"

Ignoring him, Vincent walked out the door.

Ruben pursed his lips.

On the other hand, Morgan looked on attentively.

Donning a weak smile, Ruben reassured, "Don't worry, Morgan. I'll stay with him."

However, Morgan looked at Vincent's back with a mixture of concern and curiosity in his gaze. "It's the first time in many years that I've seen him so interested in one thing. I'm curious to meet this Elaine lady. Mr. Lawson, please bring her here tomorrow."
