“No, I have to leave the country now!” Rayna shoved him away as tears streamed down her cheeks. “Yatran is a big country. She didn’t bring anything with her and had lost contact with you for so long. She must be struggling there!”

I thought Jessie would be fine there as it was Jefferson’s territory. I can’t believe she went missing there!

Jefferson pulled her into his arms and comforted her in a low voice, “Belle, take a deep breath. She’ll be okay. My men made a mistake, so I share the blame for her disappearance. I understand your concern for her as a close friend, but you must also take care of yourself. Arnaud’s people are in Yartran. If you go to the airport, they will find out instantly and set a trap for you.”

“But I can’t ignore Jessie,” Rayna replied in a hoarse voice, her eyes turning red. “She disappeared for so long, and you couldn’t find her at all. How can I not be worried?”

Jefferson said reassuringly. “Don’t worry. Ringo checked the underground circles, and there was no sign of Jessica. She must be somewhere in Yartran. She’ll be okay.”

Despite that, Rayna didn’t cheer up.

Yartran was a big country with dozens of cities. Jessica didn’t have any money, so it would be difficult for her to survive there.

“I’ll fake an identity and sneak there,” Rayna suggested, for she was still worried. “I want to search for her personally.”

Right then, someone knocked at the door of the CEO’s office.

“Mr. Hamilton, Ms. Garland.” Ella opened the door and came in. “Ms. Garland, Mr. Lopez from Lopez Group wants to see you.”

Rayna frowned. “Are you talking about Wyatt Lopez?”

“Yes. He’s in the reception room now.”

“He previously barged into my office. Why is he so polite today?” Rayna gritted her teeth in anger. “How dare he show up here?”

Ella asked, “Should I tell him to visit another time as you’re busy?”

“No need! Bring him to my office now. Let’s see what he wants to talk about,” Rayna ordered sternly.
