CHAPTER 374
He murmured, “Did she eat the congee yet?”The housekeeper looked up at the time and panicked.
“Oh! I almost forgot that Miss Jackson hasn’t had dinner yet!”“Go check on her upstairs. Don’t wake her
if she isn’t up yet. Let her sleep.” He did not sound too happy.“Okay, I’ll go take a look,” the
housekeeper informed him and was about to hang up.Suddenly, he interjected, “Don’t hang up! Hand
the phone over to her if she’s awake.”The housekeeper fell silent.When she arrived at Janet’s room
and did not hear any noise, she was about to tell him that Janet was not awake yet.But looking at the
bed, she realized that it was empty except for the blanket.Rubbing her eyes, she focused once more
but still did not see anything.She walked to the bathroom with the phone in her hand, but no one was
there.At that moment, the housekeeper became flustered.“Young Master Mason, I think Miss Jackson
left the house! I don’t see her anywhere!”“What?” He got up in an instant from the idle position he was
in before and his voice grew cold. It seemed like he was about to explode with fury. “Check the
backyard!”She often enjoyed going to the backyard to feed the wolves. That seemed to be the only
plausible explanation. Since she was not feeling well, it was not likely that she had gone out to meet
her friends.As he gave those instructions, he was already out of the conference room.Sean, Black
Python, Red Python, and the rest looked on in silence.What happened? Why does he look so
bewildered?Could it be that something happened to Janet?Inside the green luxury car, Janet’s phone
continued to ring. She looked down and saw that it was Mason.With the explanation that she gave him,
he should still be under the assumption that she was asleep because of her menstrual pains and would
not be calling her to wake her up.Even though she wanted to answer it, she also presumed that the
housekeepers had discovered her absence. She waited for the ringing to end before turning off her
device.Knowing him, he would track her phone to find her location.With a serious look on her face, she
instructed, “Step on it, Lara.”Her voice was harsh and overbearing, leaving Lara stunned for a
moment.Don’t tell me Mason found out that she left?When Janet did not sense a change in the speed
of the car, she promptly kept her phone away.Lara glanced at the rearview mirror then heard her utter,
“Let’s switch seats, Lara.”“Okay!”Lara and Desire were both delighted. They were ready to have a feel
of the Night Shadow’s driving skills.In the pitch-black night, the green luxury car sped off on the
road.There was a hint of ridicule in her clear eyes and a contemptuous smile on the corner of her
lips.………The brilliant lamps on the wall of the Lowry Residence radiated a warm light. From the Text © 2024 .
moment Mason stepped in, he had a grim look on his face.“Did you check the surveillance cameras?
You didn’t see her?” His voice sounded threatening.The housekeeper was gripping onto the ends of
her clothes tightly. “Y-Young Master Mason… I looked over it but I didn’t see any trace of Miss
Jackson!”A person could not just disappear into thin air.Her phone was switched off.Is she in trouble?
Did she get abducted?He grew more fearful of the possibilities and could only go upstairs to see for
himself.“If anything happens to her, it’ll be on you!” He quickly paced upstairs.The housekeeper
watched his back while feeling anxious and uneasy. Where did Miss Jackson go?He kicked the door
open.It was dark. Janet just so happened to walk out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her
and was looking at him.Her skin was fair—like a sweet honey peach.“W-Why are you in here?” Janet
was shocked. She tightened her grip on the towel and forced herself to sound unsettled. “G-Get out
now!” He gulped. His gaze grew deeper and he immediately went up to hug her.
