It was clear what Sharon’s words meant. She suddenly found the reason behind her disconcertment. Tony’s voice rang out. “Let me talk to Mommy.” “Okay,” Sharon responded hastily.
Tony greeted her, “Nelly.”
Nelly’s head was buzzing, but she forced herself to calm down. “I’m here. What happened?”
“Today, Ben and I came to the filming location to visit Donna, but she isn’t here. Sharon said she disappeared after saying she wanted to head home after filming ended yesterday. Hence, Sharon assumed Donna was at home. However, Donna should’ve gone missing after she called you yesterday.”
Tony fell silent after saying that. A moment later, he added, “Donna might be in danger.” Nelly’s frown deepened. She knew Donna wasn’t one to play jokes on them, so she came to the same conclusion as Tony. She couldn’t imagine how she would react if something were to happen to Donna.
“Are you with the film crew now?” Nelly asked. “Yeah.”
“Send me the address. I’ll head there now!” Having said that, Nelly cut the line.
Ross was still staring at her. Judging from Nelly’s expression, he knew something had happened. Something bad had happened. This was the first time Ross saw such an expression on Nelly’s face. Even when Erin came to cause a fuss, Nelly was never this crestfallen.
“What’s wrong? Did something happen?” Ross questioned.
“Something had just cropped up, so I need to go now!” There was no time to explain. Nelly grabbed her bag and left in a hurry.
“If you need me, just give me a call…” Before Ross could finish, Nelly had already disappeared from sight.
Tommy came over to join Ross. He glanced at Nelly, who had just made a hasty departure, and asked, “What happened? Why is she in a hurry?”
Ross shook his head. “I don’t know, but it must be something serious. I’ve never seen her acting this way!”
Nelly had just made it to the entrance of the company when a car rolled to a stop before her. Alpha Kilian wound the window down, his expression all tensed up. “Get in!”
Nelly glanced at him and got into the car without hesitation.
She had just buckled herself up when he floored the accelerator and sped off. Nelly turned and realized that Alpha Kilian’s expression was grim.
“You know about it?” Nelly asked.
“Yeah,” came Alpha Kilian’s reply. He kept his eyes on the road.
Nelly didn’t know what to say. She stared out of the window as indescribable emotions rose in her heart. Donna has never left my side. She went missing the first time she left me. I can’t imagine what I’ll do if something happens to her.
Suddenly, Alpha Kilian spoke. “Donna will be fine!”
Hearing that, Nelly whipped her head around and nodded silently. Throughout the whole ride, neither of them spoke a word. The journey should’ve taken one and a half hours under normal circumstances, but Alpha Kilian sped all the way, and they arrived at their destination within an hour.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
When they arrived, the film crew had already called the police. Almost everyone involved was present, and the police had already questioned them.
Tony and Ben immediately hurried over to them. “Nelly, Mr. Handsome!”
The director and assistant director found Alpha Kilian familiar, but they couldn’t remember who he was.
Before they could ask any questions, Sharon hurried over to them. Her eyes were red as she apologized profusely, “Alpha Morris, Ms. Jackson, I’m sorry. It’s my fault. I didn’t take good care of Donna. I really am sorry!”
Nelly glanced at her but said nothing. She didn’t want to blame anyone now as all she wanted was to find Donna as soon as possible. At that moment, Alpha Kilian snapped, “If your apology can help us locate Donna, I shall accept it!” Sharon knew it was useless to say anything. She felt really guilty, for she was the one who promised to take care of Donna. Alas, Donna ended up missing.
“Don’t worry. I won’t come back before I find Donna!” she vowed before turning to leave. Tears were still streaming down her cheeks endlessly.
Her manager, Jessica, ran after her. “Sharon, where are you going?” “I’m going to look for Donna. I will find her no matter what!”
“But where are you going to search for her?”
“I don’t know, but I can’t sit here and do nothing!”
“Sharon…”
Sharon and Jessica’s figures soon disappeared from sight.
Someone from the film crew had already recognized Alpha Kilian and told the director about it. The director was taken aback to learn about Alpha Kilian’s identity. Wealthy men like Alpha Kilian often appeared on magazine covers and newspaper headlines, so he didn’t expect he would get to meet Alpha Kilian here.
Most importantly, Alpha Kilian was Donna’s father.
It was already bad enough for the film crew, as they had to be responsible for Donna’s disappearance. To make matters worse, they offended Alpha Kilian, too.
The director immediately approached him. “Hello. Are you Alpha Morris?” Alpha Kilian glared at the director.
The director added, “I’m the director of the film. We’re really sorry that this has happened. We’ve already called the police. The police told us that we could only make a police report after she had gone missing for at least forty-eight hours. We can’t make a police report now, but they have started a search. They will let us know if there are any updates!”
“So? What is your point?” Alpha Kilian questioned. “Erm…” The director was at a loss for words. “Because the police didn’t know that Donna is my daughter and the granddaughter of the Alpha King!”
