“It's true, Evelyn. But first, please calm down and listen to me carefully." Carlos tried to soothe Evelyn while he took Gwyn from her arms.

Evelyn's hands trembled.

“What happened to him?"

“It happened after he went back to his apartment Last night. He called

Joshua. But when Joshua arrived at Imperial City Avenue, he couldn't find Sheffield. Joshua had already segregated his men into two groups.

The troops had searched Lush Hill Road and Sward Road. Finally, they found Sheffield's car in the suburbs."

Evelyn's face turned pale. But she managed to ask while stilt trembling, "And then?"

“There were traces of struggle around the car, and... there was blood.”

It wasn't easy for Carlos to tell his daughter about it. He didn't want to make her worried, but he knew that it would be better if it came from him.

“It's still not sure whether it's Sheffield's blood, but it's being tested right now."

"So, where is he now?"

"Nobody knows," Carlos honestly replied.

"Nobody knows where Sheffield is.' It was slowly sinking in for Evelyn.

She felt light-headed as if her head were about to explode or she was about to faint.

Without a second thought, she Lifted her dress and dashed towards the door. Carlos grabbed her hand and called out, “Evelyn! Evelyn, calm down.

“Father, if it were any other time, I would have listened to you. But now I'm begging you, please don't stop me. I must find him!" Evelyn exclaimed slowly while tears were threatening to fall from her eyes.

Carlos felt deep remorse while he listened to his daughter. With the utmost concern, he sincerely said, "Eve, it's not that I don't want you to look for him. But please don't let your emotions control you. A lot of experienced people are already Looking for him. They know what they are doing. Darius and Peterson have already sent every man they can spare. They will do whatever they can to find him. I'll let you know as soon as I get any news."

“But Dad, he's missing. I...and the blood. How can I just sit here?

I'll just die of anxiety if I don't do anything.”

Carlos understood how she felt.

“Evelyn, at this point, what you should do is pull yourself together. You must be strong. Gwyn needs you. She is your daughter. I'm sure Sheffield wouldn't want you to forget about her, so take care of Gwyn. I'll also send some men to Look for him."

Evelyn turned to Gwyn as if she just realized that her daughter was there. ‘Yes, Gwyn...I still have Gwyn. I have to protect her. I have to be strong for her, * Evelyn told herself.

She held back her tears, took a deep breath, and took her daughter from

Carlos. With stifled breaths, she said, “Dad, I'll carefully look after

Gwyn. Please inform me as soon as you have any information. I don't care how small the detail is, I have to know, okay?"
