Chapter 57 Resolving the Crisis

Michael didn't even glance at Sophia as he bolted outside. She yelled after him, her face clouded with gloom, "Michael, where are you going?"

But Michael didn't answer. The cold was creeping in, making him shiver uncontrollably.

He'd gone through all the club's surveillance footage and saw Emily leave, only to come back a bit later. She got into the elevator and then just vanished. Michael was livid. "Find her now! I don't care if you have to tear this place apart, find Emily!"

Everyone, from the security team to Michael's own guys, started searching high and low for Emily.

Finally, Michael took a deep breath and thought, 'Where's the coldest place around here? Where could Emily be? Is she okay?'

He racked his brain and then told his assistant, "Quick, check if there's a cold storage here."

It hit him that the only place that cold had to be a cold storage. Since Emily hadn't left the club, she had to be inside somewhere.

The commotion caught the attention of Veda and the others in the private room. Daniel, who had just arrived, heard something had happened to Emily and rushed out.

When Michael opened the cold storage door and saw Emily curled up in the corner, his heart sank. He ripped off his coat and ran to her, scooping her unconscious body into his arms.

"Emily, Emily," Michael's voice shook. Seeing her like this terrified him. He carried her out, his mind racing.

Veda started crying, clueless about what had happened, while Daniel looked on, worried. He regretted not getting there sooner.
