Chapter 1159

Francine shook her head helplessly. “I don’t know either…but it seems like Corinne planned her

escape.”

“Escape? Why would she want to run away? Did we mistreat her?”

“I think she’s mad ’cause Jeremy kept her under house arrest…”

Greg frowned. “Just because of that? Who does she think she is? I forbid anyone to go look for her.

Let’s see how long she can survive on her own outside.”

Pamela, who was clutching her chest weakly, sat up a little straighter when she heard what Greg said.

“You old fool! What the heck are you talking about? Don’t you know Corinne doesn’t need us? She’ll

never come back if we don’t look for her.”

Even though Greg looked a little worried, he stubbornly insisted on his standpoint. “Hmph! She can

stay missing for all I care!”

Pamela was so worried that she could feel her heart thumping quickly and loudly. Tears started to flow

down her cheek. “Have you forgotten she’s pregnant? What if something bad happens to her and the

baby?” she said with a sigh.

Greg could not bear to see Pamela so sad, so he waved his hand to “Bring the old lady back to her

room, and arrange for more people to look for Corinne.”

“Yes, Mister Greg,” said the servants.

Thus, Pamela was wheeled back to her room to rest.

Joey would not stop crying no matter what the maid did to distract him. Francine was worried his cries

would annoy Greg, so she asked the maid to bring him to her room.

Only then did the living room turn quiet.

Greg looked out of the window anxiously. It would be a lie if he said he was not worried about

“Grandpa, should we report this to the cops? We might be able to find Corinne faster with their help,”

suggested Francine.

Greg glanced at her. “We can only report a person missing if they’ve been gone for at least seventy-two

hours, so it’ll be pointless to go to the station now.”

Francine pouted. “Then what should we do? Jeremy must be worried sick about her now.”

Greg raised his eyebrow. “What? He knows about this already? Why did you tell him so fast? Doing this

will only make him fly back.”

Francine shook her head innocently. “I wasn’t the one who told him. It was those bodyguards out there.

They’re working under him, so of course they’d report Corinne missing the moment it happened.”

Greg’s frown became even deeper. He put his hand to his forehead and said, “Fine. Go up to their

room now to see if there’s any clue to where she might be going.”

“Okay, Grandpa,” said Francine with a nod. After that, she half-ran upstairs.

The couple’s room was not locked, so Francine had no problem going inside. She looked around the

room carefully but found nothing suspicious. That was until she heard the sound of a phone ringing.

Following the sound, she found Corinne’s phone, and the caller ID showed it was Jeremy calling her.

‘Why wouldn’t she bring her phone with her?’ wondered Francine.

Without hesitation, Francine answered the call.

Jeremy’s anxious voice immediately came through. “Where did you go?”

“Jeremy, it’s me. Francine.”

After a pause, Jeremy asked, “Have you found her?”

“No. Not yet,” said Francine regretfully. “But don’t worry. I’m sure—”
