In the blink of an eye, it was afternoon.

There was a document that Merlin wanted to Sheldon to sign.

After the signing, Meilin asked casually, "Mr. Hawls, do you know what happened to Preslie? Why did she suddenly ask for leave?"

Sheldon was stunned.

Preslie had asked for leave?

He immediately asked, "Why did she ask for leave? When did she ask?"

Merlin said, "She came to the president's palace this morning and asked for leave in less than two hours. She said she had something to do, but she didn't say what. She's a very serious worker. I don't think she'd ask for leave unless it was something extraordinary, so I came to ask you."

Sheldon didn't know either.

Merlin didn't say anything else when she realised that Sheldon was just as clueless.

After Merlin left, a hint of anxiety appeared in Sheldon's eyes.

Why did Preslie ask for leave?

He immediately dialled Preslie's number.

However, no one answered.

After that, Sheldon kept calling, but no one picked up. He was so worried that his mind couldn't calm down at all.

Where had Preslie gone to?

Why didn't she answer his calls?

Ten minutes later, Sheldon tried to call Preslie again.

But as before, no one answered.

Sheldon couldn't take it any longer. He left the president's office in a hurry and went home before it was time to get off work.

When he reached home, there was no trace of Preslie.

Sheldon was very concerned.

He wondered where Preslie could have gone to.

Could it be that she had gone to look for Yesseca?

Probably not.

It made sense if she wanted to see Yesseca on weekends, but wasn't typical of Preslie to take time off work to find Yesseca.
