At that moment, Caleb felt a wave of worry wash over him as he thought about Ethan. “Mr. Knight’s voice sounded raspy, so he obviously hadn’t eaten or drunk anything.”

Sam frowned upon hearing that. “He’s checking the surveillance footage? Haven’t we done that already?”

“He must have been worried that we would miss out on something. That’s why he personally double-checked everything. Furthermore, he had a deeper comprehension of Mrs. Knight than we did. There’s a chance he’ll find something we overlooked if he goes through it personally.” After working with Ethan for so long. Caleb deeply understood the man’s character.

On the other hand, Liam was stunned after hearing that. “There are so many surveillance cameras throughout the city. How long would it take Mr. Knight to go through them alone?”

“He won’t stop until he finds her,” Caleb said with a solemn expression on his face. “Also, his behavior raises grave concerns.”

“What is the matter with Mrs. Knight? Why did she go missing? The last time she did this was already excruciating for us, and now she’s doing it again! What’s wrong with living a good life? Why did she run away?” Sam inquired because he was preoccupied with numerous thoughts. Why, after marrying Mr. Knight, would she not settle down to a peaceful life? Is she still not satisfied? What exactly does she want? Does the fact that Mr. Knight went to such extremes to locate her give her a sense of significance?

“She’s not an unreasonable woman. Something must have happened.” Caleb had interacted with Alice on multiple occasions and concluded that she was not a woman of that nature.

“I’m not implying that she’s being unreasonable. Even though it’s understandable that people. occasionally act irrationally, there must be a limit. Going overboard is bad. What’s the point in squandering time and resources on her?” Despite Sam’s lack of context, his comments were plausible.

Suddenly, Caleb’s face blanched as he noticed Ethan approaching them, and he immediately whispered to Sam, “Shut up.”

As Ethan approached them, he continued to walk past them without pausing or even looking in their direction. Instead, he stated in a remarkably calm manner, “Sam, you don’t have to work for me anymore.” He had always been a man who valued his employees and was not the type to be angry with someone for no apparent reason.

When he heard Sam’s grumbles about Alice, his heart throbbed in agony, though. At this moment, he couldn’t handle any negative comments directed at his wife. In the meantime, he never stopped walking, and as soon as he finished speaking, he left before anyone could

However, Sam was taken aback after hearing that and had not expected to be dismissed for expressing his opinions. Yes, I admit that I should not have gossiped about Mrs. Knight, but I didn’t say anything particularly hurtful comments about her. I speak only the truth!

On the other hand, Caleb was so dumbstruck by what had happened that it took him a while. to regain his composure.

“Is Mr. Knight serious about what he said earlier?” Liam whispered, now that he was sure Ethan was out of hearing.

“Have you ever seen him joke around before, especially about something like that?” Caleb responded with a sharp glare. He then turned to Sam. “I told you to work more and speak less. You just had to run your mouth. It would have been fine if you were talking about. anything else. Why did you have to talk about Mrs. Knight? What will you do now?”

“How would I know?” After saying that, Sam was stumped. Working for Ethan was his lifelong dream, and he did so because of his deep respect for the man. From the moment he began working for Ethan, he never considered leaving.

“How about we plead for mercy?” Liam was usually a man of few words but had a big heart, especially since they had always gotten along.

“Plead for mercy? Do you wish to die?” Caleb glanced at Liam and sighed silently. “You didn’t notice the expression on Mr. Knight’s face as he spoke; it was calm and emotionless. Rather than appearing angry, he seemed to be distancing himself.”

“Something about his actions seemed off to me as well. What happened between him and Mrs. Knight?” Liam had also noticed the same thing.
