Echoes Of a Forsaken Heart

Chapter 260

Hamilton's eyes held a storm of icy resolve, like a man pushed to his limits with nowhere left to explode. "When did they notice she was gone?"

"About two hours ago, someone from that side called saying they couldn't find her, and her phone was off too."

Two hours ago, he and Natalia had just left the bar.

Hamilton's gaze was deep and frosty.

Out of nowhere, she disappears, just like that, into thin air.

Could Eveleen really pull that off on her own?

He took a drag from his cigarette, lowering his gaze.

"Trash the old man's crew, and send them back to him as a message!"

"What about Eveleen?"

Hamilton looked out into the night in silence.

After a while, he finally spoke, "First, we search; if that fails, we involve the police."

Alden sighed, but complied.

That Eveleen, barely a few days of calm, and here we go again.

And finding her is one thing, but it's another worry if she's pulled another stunt.

His brother had just met Natalia, and he didn't need Eveleen stirring up trouble again.

Alden hurried off to make arrangements after hanging up.

Natalia, feeling a bit dizzy, walked out of the bathroom after a shower and saw Hamilton standing by the window.

The man seemed to be enveloped in a gloom, and with one look, she could tell he was in a foul mood.

So much so, he hadn't even noticed her come out.

"Is something wrong?" Natalia asked softly.

Hamilton snapped back to reality, the chill on his face melting away.

Instead of answering directly, he teased, "You're done showering already? Why didn't you wait for me?"

Natalia wasn't in the mood for his evasion.

Holding a towel, she dried her hair and said, "Hamilton, could you get me some medicine?"

Hamilton paused, immediately realizing what she meant.
