Elias’ Crimes and Punishments of Romance

Elias looked at the disconnected call on his phone and remembered that he had dropped off Rosie at the intersection of Volund Road this morning. Could she have disappeared there?

Moreover, how could a living person just disappear? Could she have been kidnapped?

The man immediately turned around, and the butler followed behind him. “Mr. Winters, aren’t you going to look for Mrs. Winters?”

“No. Prepare the car. We’re going to Volund Road.”

“Yes,”

Boris didn’t know who had called or what had happened, but since Elias had ordered him to prepare the car, he could only comply.

At the same time, Amanda stood by the window in her room, watching the man get out of the car and walk toward the villa, only to get back in the car and leave.

What does this mean? Is he not coming back tonight?

She instinctively turned and left the bedroom, chasing after him. Then, she arrived in front of the man’s car and tapped on the window.

The man inside the car saw her and rolled down the window. “What’s the matter?”

“Where are you going? It’s almost midnight, and you’re still leaving to go somewhere?” How was he going to recover his health with such a work schedule?

“Go to bed first. I have something to take care of.”

After saying that, the man was about to roll up the window, but Amanda persisted and asked, “What exactly are you going to do?”

“Rosie has gone missing, and I’m going to look for her

As soon as he finished speaking, he rolled up the window, and the driver slowly drove away.

Amanda was left standing there, confused.

Missing? How could she go missing? She remembered seeing Rosie inside the cafe when she was lured there by that unknown phone call today. How could she suddenly disappear for no reason?
