Chapter 1044: Chapter 1044: Find Her Within One Day!

"When did this start?" Watt Bennet pressed on.

Marshall Quinn thought for a moment and said, "About seven or eight days ago."

There was silence on Watt’s end, then he barked roughly, "She hasn’t been to the company for seven or eight days, and you didn’t think to call me?"

His shouting was quite fierce, leaving Marshall Quinn stunned.

"But Miss Sutton arranged everything at the company before she left and told us not to worry about her. I thought, I thought she was just going out for a walk." Marshall awkwardly explained.

"Did she say where she was going?" Watt demanded.

Marshall shook his head.

Unable to get any answers, Watt grew irritable.

He hung up the phone, tossed it aside, and his expression turned even grimmer as he called Summer Sutton.

The call didn’t connect, and when the number was dialed, it only resulted in an automated voice informing him that the number was temporarily unreachable.

Feeling frustrated, Watt threw the phone aside and instructed the driver to take him to Shining Sky first.

After working at the company for a few hours, during his free time, he tried calling Summer Sutton again.

However, the call still resulted in the temporarily unreachable status.

Watt rubbed his forehead with his fingertips, lost in thought.

If Summer Sutton just went out to relax, she shouldn’t have left without telling anyone.

What kind of place would make her phone unreachable all the time?

Or, did something happen to her?

Thinking this, Watt’s heart tightened.

He called Marshall Quinn again and coldly ordered, "Send someone to find her immediately! Find her within a day!"

...

Ink Family.

Since Summer Sutton came, she had been staying here for seven days straight.

The Old Master let her stay in the house, and Summer naturally assumed it was so she could exchange her labor for herbal medicine as compensation.

Before the elderly man made any arrangements, she proactively began working as a maid.

Every day, Summer Sutton stayed close to Manuel Ink, almost never leaving his side.

It seemed Manuel Ink’s parents were off enjoying a romantic getaway, not staying in the castle.

The only residents of the castle were Manuel Ink and the Old Master of the Ink Family.

Summer Sutton had no other choice but to stay with Manuel Ink.

She didn’t have the courage to stay by the Old Master’s side.

The Old Master of the Ink Family was obsessed with all forms of transportation, with the main issue being that he wasn’t good at operating any of them. In the few days since Summer arrived, she had almost daily heard reports from servants about more accidents the Old Master had caused, what injuries he had sustained, etc.

Summer Sutton felt that if she spent the next two years with the Old Master, she’d be doomed sooner or later.

For the sake of her own safety, she could only stick with Manuel Ink.

She even clung to him quite tightly, afraid that the moment she was free, she’d be called away by the Old Master.

Manuel Ink sat on the couch, seemingly working on something with his laptop.

Wearing her maid outfit, Summer Sutton wiped the coffee table in front of him over and over again, suddenly leaning her head towards him, "What are you busy with?"

Her movements were so sudden that Manuel Ink apparently didn’t have time to react.

When Summer Sutton glanced over, she saw nothing but the word "entertainment." 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

The news said the Ink Family was involved in fashion and entertainment.

Summer Sutton only assumed the Ink Family’s scope was limited to entertainment companies in M Country and didn’t pay much attention.

Holding the cloth, she continued to wipe other areas of the living room.

Manuel Ink snapped the laptop shut, setting it aside, and couldn’t help but raise his face to look at her.
