Chapter 5
George’s words made Jonas hold his breath for a moment. He felt a bit dizzy and coldly sald to George on the other end of the phone, “Don’t rush, George. Take your time and tell me, what exactly happened?”
George on the other side seemed to be going crazy with impatience, his tone becoming more urgent, “Jonas, there’s no time to waste, just two things, one is that Mrs. Graham is missing, we’ve searched the entire Freylord and she’s nowhere to be found! And, all the liquid funds in the corporate account are also missing!”
“I was so desperate, Jones! Please come back quickly! The shareholders don’t know where they got the news from, and now they are all blocking the entrance of the company, demanding an explanation from us!”
“By the way, there was there was also the medial”

This time, George didn’t finish speaking, and Jomas hang up the phone, George had been following himself for over a decade, and he had never been so flustered before, even when he ordered someone to the up pregnant Elisa, George just smiled bitterly and still did it. He knew that something really went
WTHIN
Billions of dollars in liquid capital have disappeared. He was willing to risk his life to solve it, but now that the journalists have found out, it’s not going to be easy. The Graham Group has been operating in Freylord for over a decade, known for its integrity. Now that the money in the accounts has vanished, it not only can’t be explained to the shareholders, but also indicates a serious problem in the Internal management of the company. This crisis of trust is enough to bring down a century–old enterprise, let alone the Graham Group, which has just established a foothold in the market.
Moreover, how could Elisa just disappear out of thin air? George is skillet in both legal and illegal activities, there is no one he cannot find. But now, there is no news from George’s side. The creepy faces of those things who kidnapped Elisa a few days ago are lingering in Jonas‘ mind. Could it be that George didn’t handle the situation properly and they brought her back? And Elisa… thinking about this, Jonas dare not think harther. He must first go to the company to deal with the group’s affairs. Today, even if he has to dig into underground, he will find Elisa! Jonas firmly stepped on the accelerator and raced towards the company
Roselyn, who had been sitting in the passenger seat all along, was not clear about what exactly had happened. She didn’t understand anything about business matters. She had just faintly heard the person on the phone saying that Elisa had disappeared. Thinking about the words she had said in Elisa’s room this morning, as well as Elisa’s state at that time, Roselyn couldn’t help but feel excited. It seemed that her words had worked. If Elisa left, the man in front of her would devote himself even more wholeheartedly to her. Thinking about how both of the top men in Freylord had fallen under her charm,
Roselyn became even more proud.
Jonas faintly felt that Roselyn seemed to be laughing beside him. Before he could even ask, Hoselyn reached out and touched his thigh, saying, “Jonas, you’re so worried just because Elisa ran away from home? It’s just a little trick from a woman, and I might get angry with you acting like this.”
Such scenes used to happen frequently between them in the past. Faced with Jonas‘ superficial concem for Elisa, Roselyn always pretended to be jealous. The former Jonas was delighted to see Roselyn like this, he couldn’t rightfully stand by her skle as her husband, but he could enjoy her possessiveness
like a wife
But this time, Jonas was a little annoyed by the scene and instinctively shifted his leg to the other side. This small movement did not escape Roselyn’s eyes, and she quickly withdrew her hand and her face turned cold. “Jonas, stop for a moment, I want to get off the ear.”
Roselyn always liked to throw a tantrum, and Jonas knew that it was her way of expressing dissatisfaction. As usual, he would usually come forward and appease her with a few comforting words or by spending a few hundred thousand dollars. But now, Jonas no longer had the patience. He pulled the car over, hit the foot brake, and coldly said to a surprised Hoselyn, “Get out of the car, I have urgent matters to attend to and can’t be delayed.”
Roselyn had never seen Jonas so cold and distant before, and for a moment, she was stated. But looking at the indifference in Jonas’s eyes, she knew he was serious. She had always been pampered by men and couldn’t bear this kind of humiliation, so she turned around, picked up her bag from the back seat of the car, and got out of the car. In the instant the car door closest, she hoped Jonas would explain to her, but Jonas stepped on the gas pedal, leaving her
only with his back.
