Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 578 Search Came Up Empty

"But…"

Bobby looked conflicted.

"Why can't you open up the place? I demand to be let in. If you don't open up, you can say goodbye to your company tomorrow."

Welson never minced words, and Bobby knew he couldn't stop Welson, so he had to retrieve the key and unlock the gate to allow entry.

As soon as they walked into the courtyard, Welson saw Haris sitting leisurely at the stone table by the gate.

"What's going on? What brings you here, Mr. Harley?" Haris sipped from his cup of tea. He didn't seem upset that an outsider had barged into his place. Instead, he pointed at the stool next to him and suggested, "Why don't you enjoy a cup of tea with me?"

Welson snorted. "I'm not in the mood to sit around and have tea with you. Hurry up and tell me where you hid the two of them."

"The two of them?"

Haris set his cup down and pretended to exclaim in shock, "You shouldn't throw such false accusations around, Mr. Harley. No one came here."

"Let me search the place and we'll see whether it was a false accusation."

Welson couldn't be bothered to play nice. With a wave of his hand, the men beside him immediately went around searching the courtyard.

After a quick search, they reported back saying they didn't find anyone.

Welson couldn't help but frown. Was I wrong about this?

Nevertheless, he'd personally witnessed Elspeth entering the place using the hidden passage, and judging by the location, he was fairly certain it had to lead into this courtyard.

Why haven't we found anything yet?

"I told you, Mr. Harley. There's no one here."

Haris shrugged helplessly.
