Billionaire’s Missing Darling by Theresa Wilde

Chapter 12

It was soon 7:45 p.m. Inside the hall, people were drinking, laughing, and chatting, a scene of harmony and joy, but on the second floor, everyone in the Taylor family looked very anxious.

Amelia was so anxious that her face turned red. She couldn’t care less about her manners and took out her cell phone to dial Abigail’s number over and over again.

She shouted inwardly, “What time is it? Where is she?”

The dinner party started at eight o’clock, and at that time, Liam would lead Olivia down from the second floor.

But now it was already 7:45, and Olivia was nowhere to be seen.

On the other side, Abigail watched Amelia’s consecutive incoming calls on her cell phone, and her lips were almost bleeding from biting. She didn’t dare to answer it, and even if she did, she didn’t know how to explain Olivia’s disappearance. Was she supposed to say that she had accidentally crashed her car and left Olivia alone at the subway station? If she said so, Amelia would definitely kill her.

Amelia might not pay attention to some of the minutiae or some small tricks. But any wealthy noblewoman had a dedicated car and would not take the subway when traveling unless there was an urgent matter.

It was a serious dereliction of duty to let Olivia, who was well–groomed and not very mobile in her gown, take the subway.

When Amelia learned of this, she would definitely fire Abigail, and Abigail wouldn’t even be able to stay at the Taylor Group.

Looking at the constantly vibrating cell phone, Abigail eventually broke down emotionally. She crouched on the floor and cried.

Then, she picked up the phone, shivering.

“Abigail, why don’t you answer the phone?” Amelia’s questioning came from the other side of the phone.

It was the first time that the gentle and elegant noblewoman was angry. “Mrs. Taylor,” Abigail wiped her tears as she said, “I’m sorry, but I can’t find Miss Olivia.”

“What?” Amelia was shocked, and in her heart, she wanted to drag Abigail

out of her cell phone and question her on how she was doing her job. But now was not the time to hold Abigail accountable but to find Olivia as soon as possible.

Amelia barely suppressed her anger and tried to soften her tone as much as she could. “Tell me. What on earth is going on?”

William, standing right next to Amelia, saw his mother’s unsteady mood and stepped forward to take the phone.

Then, he said to the phone, “Explain!”

Abigail’s emotion that she had managed to suppress instantly collapsed when she heard the warm and calm male voice coming from the other end of the line.
