Not wanting to interrupt Ellinor Mendoza's sweet dreams, Theo Blanchet prepared to leave the room to rest in his study as usual.
Just as he was about to exit the room, he suddenly realized something was off. There was no sound of breathing in the room.
His heart skipped a beat, and he quickly turned on the light. He looked around to find that the room was empty!
He strode forward and yanked the covers off the bed and it was bare!
Where the hell was Ellinor at this ungodly hour?
He immediately took out his phone to call her, but the phone on the bedside table rang.
That was his phone, which he had given to her. How could she have left without her phone this late at night?
A sudden premonition hit Theo. He turned around and opened the wardrobe. There wasn't a single piece of women's clothing inside.
Theo's pupils constricted, and he barked, "Get someone in here!"
Upon hearing this, Devin hurried over, "Mr. Blanchet, what's wrong?"
Theo shot him a cold glare, "Where is she?"
Devin looked confused. He glanced around the room but saw no sign of Ellinor, then he looked at the wardrobe full of men's clothing and instantly felt a sense of unease.
"Mr. Blanchet, Ellinor went to her room to rest after dinner. I didn't see her go downstairs at all! Because she's been quite sleepy lately, she goes to bed very early. I even specifically told everyone not to disturb her."
Theo's jaw tightened, "Go find her! Don't bother coming back if you can't find her!"
