The CEO's Wife Is Super Charming

Chapter 252: Chapter 249: Bad News Arrives

"According to an insider, actor Elliana Lyle encountered a sandstorm while filming ’Interstellar Immigrants’ and is now missing. A large number of rescue teams have been dispatched from Frontier City."

When Joy Lyle saw this news on the marketing account video, the chopsticks in her hand dropped.

She was eating a boxed lunch on set, taking a break to watch some videos, but didn’t expect to see this!

Her heart missed a beat, and she wasn’t sure if the news was true, likely just a rumor by a marketing account.

Thinking like this was just a form of wishful thinking; the best way to confirm this was to call and ask.

She tried several times, but Elliana’s phone was turned off.

The moment her hand, holding the phone, fell by her ear, her heart turned cold as well.

This matter was likely true.

But her rationality told her not to jump to conclusions; when she wanted to call Norman Bennett, she realized she didn’t have his contact information at all.

She had to contact Victor King first; he would surely know Assistant Wu’s contact info, and Assistant Wu would naturally be able to reach Norman.

When the call connected, Victor immediately knew why she was calling, and before she could speak, he regretfully said, "She’s missing, and they haven’t found her yet."

The words were like a bolt from the blue, leaving her in a daze for a long time.

In her heart, she kept praying that nothing would happen... hoping nothing would.

Just then, the phone rang, and she saw it was Phoebe Lyle calling, and she quickly answered, "Sis, you know already, don’t you?"

The other end paused for a moment, then replied with a light "Hmm," the voice was soft yet couldn’t hide the sadness.

"Looks like you know too. Call Uncle and let him know about this."

Although there was no definitive news proving Elliana’s death, a sandstorm was not just any natural disaster; disappearing in the desert was as good as dead.

"Alright, I’ll call right now."

After hanging up, Joy’s eyes could no longer hold back, and as the tears were about to fall, she quickly wiped them away.
