Chapter 371: We Have to Find Her

He even hated to get close to her, let alone sleep with her.

...

Therefore, Marina could only stand at a distance, pretending to be doing something and secretly
looking at Emmett on the other side of the balcony.

He was dressed in a casual way but gave the impression of being serious, as if he was completely
intent on his work.

How ironic it was!

This was their "sweet life" after the engagement!

Others might think that they were now literally stuck with each other and indulged in sensuality every
night.

Perhaps Atwood also did not expect his son to be so stubborn and never touch such a gorgeous
woman as her.

Marina took a causal sip of the coffee that the servant served.

So bitter!

But she felt more bitterness in her heart for having no one to talk to.

That was when Emmett's phone rang.

The sound broke the silence.

There hadn't been many calls these days. Who would dare to disturb him right now?



Marina drank the coffee slowly, casting a glance at Emmett who was working in the sun from time to
time.

He frowned at first. It seemed that the call had interrupted his train of thought.

Emmett found his phone and glanced at it.

It didn't feel right!

Emmett became nervous immediately!

He straightened his broad back up subconsciously.

Marina was surprised to see him like this.

What happened?

Who called him? Why would this man, who was calm at all times, have this reaction?

Emmett knew that the call was from Iceland with a look. Why would they call? Something bad was
happening?

He closed the laptop and answered the phone.

"It's me. What's wrong?"

Emmett frowned.

For some reason, his heart raced when he asked this.

He had a bad feeling....

"Young master! Something happened!"



The sound of the wind, along with the man's sniffs, could be heard over the phone.

...

Emmett's breathing suddenly became fast. He sat up straight and raised his voice.

"Don't panic, and tell me what's going on!"

The man immediately started crying,

"Young master, we are stupid! We failed to do what you told us to do. We are to blame and you can just
punish us...."

Emmett was anxious to the extreme. He shouted in anger,

"Get to the point! Cut the crap! What exactly happened?"

"Young master ... Ms. Jones ... was killed...."

"What!"

Emmett frowned and cried out in alarm. This was the first time that his voice had been so high-pitched
that it didn't sound like him as all.

He sat up quickly and jumped to the ground!

His hands were shaking badly.

Emmett roared, "Tell me what exactly is going on!"

"Someone attempted to kill Ms. Jones. She was shot and fell off a high cliff."



"Go search for her right now! You must find her! I will get there as soon as possible! Let me tell you, if
you fail to find her, you all have to die!"

Emmett roared crazily and kept smashing his fists down on the table.

Marina, who was standing over there, was so shocked that several drops of coffee spilt on her clothes.

Emmett hung up and stood still in a daze.

The smart and brave man who had never feared anything, for the first time in his life, was at a loss for
what to do.

Hearing that Elaine got shot and fell off the cliff, he broke down.

For a moment, he was unable to think of anything!

He only had Elaine in his mind right now, who was grinning like a little girl with narrowed eyes. And a
buzzing-noise was in his ears.

Elaine was ... shot?

Was she bleeding?

Falling off a cliff?

Was she in great pain?

He couldn't think more about it!

...

He dreaded to think how painful his beautiful girl would feel if she bled profusely after the fall!



His heart ached at the very thought of it!

His body began to tremble out of control.

His face was frighteningly pale.

Emmett held his phone tightly, bit his finger, and stood there for a minute.

Afterwards, he called Kayden in panic. When he spoke, his voice was thick with sadness.

"Kayden, send all the people we have to surround Iceland. Someone wants to kill Elaine and she is
missing now. We have to find her...."

"What!"

Kayden was shopping outside and the news came as a shock to him.

"Kayden, get the private plane ready. I'll fly to Iceland immediately."

"Got it! It will be ready in about half an hour!"

"OK!"

After Kayden hung up the phone, he was shocked with his eyes wide open and what Emmett said just
now kept repeating in his mind.

Someone wanted to ... kill Elaine.... She was missing....

How could that be!

How!

The antique in Kayden's hand fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.



He could kill people with bare hands, but now his eyes turned red.

Emmett made several phone calls and arranged for people to search for Elaine in Iceland.

He had asked everyone he knew to do that at their utmost. "I have to see her, dead or alive." He meant
to say that, but he had trouble uttering the word "dead".

'Elaine, you can't die. No matter what, you must live.'

After a moment of silence, Emmett started to smash things crazily.

Everything within his reach was smashed. The table was kicked over, the cup broken, and the rattan
chair knocked over.

Marina totally freaked out, cowering in a corner and watching him do all this.

She dared say nothing.

After that, Emmett left the villa with his subordinates.

...

He didn't say a word about this to Marina.

But before he went out, he shot a glare at Marina with hatred.

He looked quite fierce!

Seeing this, Marina trembled all over.

The door was slammed shut!

Emmett left.



Marina was stunned for a moment and then slumped onto the sofa.

Her hands started to tremble.

From what Emmett said, something seemed to have happened to Elaine, who he had been thinking
about all the time.

Was she dead?

Someone wanted to kill her?

She deserved it!

Marina suddenly revealed an evil smile.

Soon Emmett and Kayden met at the airport. Both of them looked depressed and grieved as they
boarded.

The plane was taking off.

Kayden spoke to people in Iceland and issued orders with the communication equipment on the plane.

Emmett sat in a comfortable seat motionless. He didn't even blink, just like a rock.

After a long time, he made a move. With a blink, tears flowed from his eyes.

With his shoulders shaking, he closed his eyes and placed one hand on his forehead. Then he leaned
his head against the back of the seat and shed tears quietly.

He had never thought that the girl he had always cherished would leave him so early.

She was as soft as cream.



She always smiled innocently with his protection.

He once considered making her pure and innocent forever. In this case, when she grew old, she should
be a very cute old lady....

But now...

How could such a timid girl face things like this?

Would she feel pain?

Would she cry?

Would she be scared?

The more Emmett thought about it, the more he was going to fall apart.

He clenched his fists, opened his teary eyes and gave the seat in front of him a punch.

He would definitely get back at whoever hurt his woman like this!

Actually, after hanging up, Kayden also shed tears silently with his head down.

...

He used to hate Elaine the most.

She was happy all the time, just like a stupid girl. She was also a troublemaker. Anything related to her
would make trouble for him.

But ... as time went by...

Kayden actually started to like her.



He treated her as his sister and loved her dearly even when she was clumsy and innocent.

Now Elaine probably had died. According to the news from Iceland, not only was she shot, but she fell
off a high cliff....

The thought that he could no longer see that troublemaker broke Kayden's heart.

His tears couldn't stop.

With the sound of beeping, Kayden wiped his nose quickly and looked down at the tablet in his hand.

It received a file. He clicked and a video appeared.

"Master Smith, this is where Ms. Jones fell. Looking down from here, it is about tens of meters high and
there are many rocks below. Next, I will send you photos of this place taken from multiple angles."

He was one of the four men, speaking in a trembling voice. His eyes were bloodshot, red and swollen.

Next, the video showed the high cliff.

Kayden was stunned for a moment. He quickly ran to the back with the tablet and handed it to Emmett.

"Master Smith! Here is the video from Iceland!"

Emmett's eyes snapped open!
