Steve rushed to the place where little Sheila was last seen as fast as he could. The driver knew he had made a big mistake, so he had already notified Steve’s assistant and sent people to look for her.
At that moment, the security personnel that the driver had contacted also arrived. They brought the area’s surveillance video, but unfortunately, the place where little Sheila went missing was in the blind spot of the surveillance camera.
Although people were searching for her for a long time, there were still no useful clues.
The driver who was standing next to him did not even dare to breathe. He only dared to secretly look at Steve.
His handsome face had a cold and serious expression that his assistant had never seen before. He only felt that his entire body was filled with a bone-chilling aura.
At this moment, the driver was also standing at the side, feeling anxious. He thought that if looks could kill, he would have been dismembered by Steve a long time ago.
In fact, this driver had been by Steve’s side for a long time. He had always been able to complete all kinds of tasks that Steve had given him. When he was young, he had accompanied Steve on business expeditions. Like his assistant, he had become one of Steve’s confidants.
However, no matter how serious business negotiations were, the driver had never seen such a cold expression on Steve’s face.
What the driver did not know was that under Steve’s pretense of being cold and calm, there was almost unbearable anxiety and uneasiness.
The driver’s forehead had unknowingly been covered with a layer of fine sweat. He mustered up his courage and said, “President, why don’t you go home and wait for news? Besides, perhaps Miss Sheila has already gone home by herself.”
Steve listened to the unconcealable trembling in the driver’s voice and glared at him without saying a word. Then, with a hint of hope, he strode home.
The first thing Steve did when he got home, was gather all of his servants and ask if they had seen a five-year-old girl in a nightgown. The servants shook their heads.
The driver and assistant behind Steve instantly felt the atmosphere around them drop to freezing point. His boss’ gaze was so intimidating that he could not stand it.
Steve could no longer hold back the raging anger in his heart. “Why is it so hard to find a living person? Sheila is still so young, where could she have gone by herself? If we can’t find Sheila today, you guys…”
A crisp and melodious doorbell rang at the wrong time, interrupting Steve’s angry scolding.
Steve turned to the door and shouted, “Who is it? I’m in a bad mood today and I don’t want to see any guests!”
I stood outside the door and heard my uncle’s impatient voice coming from inside. I was a little surprised at first, but then I was touched by Steve’s scolding of his assistant.
Sheila had never met her uncle before today, and they had never crossed paths. He was just her last resort in a moment of desperation.
From his previous reaction, I could tell that he didn’t like children very much. I didn’t expect him to be so anxious when he couldn’t find me.
In fact, I had wanted to go back to Steve’s house a long time ago, but Aunt Kelly’s family really liked me so much that they wouldn’t let me come back until I tasted her homemade dessert.
Their family’s enthusiasm was so overwhelming that I couldn’t refuse, so it took some time. And Aunt Kelly was so excited and happy that she didn’t even think of sending someone over to tell Steve that I was at her house.
Kelly was about to explain why she was here when she heard a soft and sweet voice.
“Uncle, it’s me, I’m back!” I wanted to jump into my uncle’s arms!
When Steve heard Sheila’s voice, half of the anger in his heart disappeared. He walked towards the door quickly.
The next moment, Steve held the petite and cute little Sheila tightly in his arms.
Aunt Kelly gave a brief account of what had happened and offered to invite me to visit more often.
For some reason, I felt a flash of displeasure on my uncle’s face when he heard what Aunt Kelly said.
