Chapter 190 Elaine Had Gone Missing
It’s her fault for looking down on me in the past!
Later on, Richard and Lydia would visit Verdant Estate every now and then. They would constantly
check on Emrys, expressing concern and care for him. This greatly annoyed Cordelia, who increasingly
felt as if Emrys had somehow bewitched them.
It wasn’t just Cordelia who was upset, though. Caylie and Yelena were also bothered. They had seen
more than once, Lydia cheerfully massaging Emrys‘ shoulders and legs. She was completely acting
like
his servant
How exactly did Rys manage to persuade this haughty and beautiful woman?
The answer would always remain a secret.
Because Emrys has never been fond of taking a patient’s condition lightly, it was even more unlikely
that Richard and his wife would reveal it themselves.
Gradually, the sisters had surprisingly become accustomed to the unusual behavior of Richard and
Lydia
Cordelia didn’t pay much more attention to this matter, though. She decided to just leave these three
peculiar individuals be. Having come to terms with this, she threw herself into the affairs of the Cordelia
Group, preparing for the establishment of a branch office in the near future.
It seemed as though everything was progressing for the better.
Just a few days before the establishment of the branch office, Cordelia suddenly rushed to find Emrys,
informing him that something might have happened to Elaine.
Elaine was a key person in charge in the R&D department of Cordelia Group. Since joining the
company, she had been diligent and dedicated, never shirking her duties. However, surprisingly, she
did not show up for work today and did not request a leave of absence.
Cordelia had called her, but her phone was switched off. He had also visited her apartment, but found
no sign of her. Moreover, according to the security guard at Elaine’s residential complex, he had clearly
seen Elaine leave the complex in the morning.
The residential area where Elaine lived was very close to the office building. It took less than ten
minutes to walk to work, so she couldn’t possibly be gone for an entire day.
Cordelia anxiously said, “I’ve already been to the police station. They said they can’t file a case until
after twenty–four hours, and asked me to be patient. But my intuition tells me that Lainey might be in
serious trouble.”
Suddenly, an idea struck her. She looked at Emrys with a worried expression and asked, “Emrys, do
think it could be due to the facial mask formula?” Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Emrys nodded solemnly. “That’s a possibility.”
The formula for World–Enchanting Beauty was too astonishing and unconventional. Once the product

was launched, it would surely affect the interests of countless people, especially those companies
primarily engaged in the skincare industry. To protect their own interests, there was no guarantee they
wouldn’t resort to drastic measures.
Seeing the worried expression on Cordelia’s face, Emrys comforted her, saying, “You don’t need to be
overly concerned. If they are indeed after the facial mask formula, it implies that Elaine is not in
immediate danger.”
The logic was indeed as such, but Cordelia was still deeply worried. He said, “I hope Lainey doesn’t get
into trouble. If they want the formula, just give it to them. Nothing is more important than a human life.”
Emrys nodded, instructing Caylie and Yelena to accompany Cordelia. He then stepped outside the
mansion and dialed the special number for Seventy–two Shadow Forces.
“Activate the Skynet surveillance system and help me track someone’s recent activities”
Emrys sent Elaine’s information to the Seventy–two Shadow Forces, and received a response quickly.
“Mr. Lund, the Skynet surveillance system revealed that Ms. Elaine was taken away by a white van
without a license plate near Blallas Street in Jadeborough. It happened about twenty minutes before
eight in the morning. The last surveillance footage showed her location to be in the eastern suburbs of
Jadeborough.”
“Understood.”
After obtaining a rough location, Emrys immediately mounted his old–fashioned bike and rushed to the
eastern suburbs at the fastest speed. Like a streak of light cutting through the air, his speed was
incredibly fast.
Sweeping across one peak after another, Emrys pushed his vision to its absolute limit, even employing
the use of his True Sight. He continuously analyzed potential hiding places.
In the end, he set his sights on an abandoned warehouse, and he had already spotted a few men, who
didn’t seem like good news, smoking by the warehouse entrance.
Emrys parked his old–fashioned bike directly on top of the abandoned warehouse. Under his deliberate
control, the old–fashioned bike landed as softly as a feather, making almost no sound.
