Ivan, who was sitting in the co-pilot, said, "I asked the driver for details, and he explained that Mrs.Marwood was in a hurry to get in the cab and even threw her mobile phone out of the car window.After getting in the car, she couldn't tell him any specific address but told him to go to thecountryside. Could it be that Mrs. Marwood regained her memory?"

After all, only when she regained her memory would she think about running away. Moreover,heading to the countryside was obviously because she was deliberately looking for a remote placeas it was easier to hide.

Anthony's obsidian eyes were sharp and determined. Whether Anne had regained her memory ornot, he must get her back!

"Really? Anne is missing?" Bianca had been waiting for Mia's call at home. She was happy when sheheard the news.

"That's right! Mr. Marwood is furious, and he's out looking for her.” Mia was worried. "I wonder if hecan replace her. If she's found, we can't continue with the plan anymore.”

"Anne is running around in fright now, and she'll definitely hide. Anyway, just pay attention to theincoming calls on your phone so that you don't miss her call,” Bianca said.

“Yes, Bianca."

After finishing the call, Bianca sat on the sofa, extremely satisfied with her plan.

She touched the gauze on her forehead, feeling that her wound did not hurt anymore!

After Mia hung up the phone, she hid the phone in her clothes and went out of the bathroom.Hayden was looking for her. "Where have you been? You must be more alert of your responsibilityat this time!"

"I'm sorry, sir. My stomach was a little upset.”

"Are you feeling better now? Do you want to take a rest?" Hayden asked.

"I'm feeling better after going to the toilet. I always have stomach aches like this,” Mia replied.Hayden said, "Then go and watch over the kids. If they ask, just say Mr. Marwood and Mrs.Marwood are out on a date.”

Before Mia could speak, the triplets suddenly appeared.

Holding a plastic knife, Charlie said angrily, "They went on a date behind our backs again!"

Hayden was startled, but he steadied himself, so they did not notice anything.

"Will Papa and Mama come home tonight?" Chloe asked.

Chris watched eagerly.

"I don't know about this. It's possible that they're going to stay outside,” Hayden said.

Anne had suddenly disappeared. Even after searching around the Royal Mansion, they could notreplace her. In the end, they discovered that Anne had gone out unnoticed.

Hayden really hoped that Anthony could quickly replace Anne.

Otherwise, the entire Royal Mansion would be shrouded in gloom.

It was already dusk outside, and the city lights came on. However, the beautiful view weighedheavily on people's hearts, making it hard to breathe.

The journey was not short, and it was already dark at the place where the cab dropped off Anne.After getting off the cab, the driver said, "I dropped her off her.”

Anthony looked around. As the sky was getting dark, he could only see the trees under the nightbeing blown by the wind, looking like devils with teeth and claws.

Ivan said, "Mr. Marwood, if there are fields here, there must be villages."

The driver heard it and agreed, "Yes, it's over there.” Then, pointing to the dark field of trees in thedistance, he added, "You can see it in the morning, but it's not that clear at night.”

Anthony's eyes were darker than the night. "Let's go there.”

Then, a group of people went to the village. Sure enough, there was a small road that could only bewalked by people. After a while, they saw the village inside. Some houses were lit, and some houseshad no lights at all.

Ivan arranged for people to block any escape routes and then knocked on the door of each houseto search.

They even searched the houses with no people and no lights

The village was not big and had only about forty houses in total. In just over an hour, they hadsearched in and out of the village.

They asked the people in the village, and they all said they did not see any outsiders coming."There's another village nearby. Keep looking!" Anthony led the people away with a gloomy face.They walked forward and found that there would be a village after a certain distance, and they allentered from the fork. However, every fork in the road had a long distance, and the search effortwas not small.

Anthony called for more manpower and material resources. Not only did he dispatch helicopters,but he also used thermal sensors and night vision goggles.

Anthony must replace Anne tonight, and he would let her spend the night outside.

How could Anne survive in such a dark environment where one could not see the next village atnight?

Anthony was anxious and gave his people a death order!

However, they could not replace Anne even after searching for her the entire night.

The bodyguards did not even dare to breathe. Even though it had nothing to do with them andthere were many scattered villages here, Anthony regarded their failure to locate Anne as their lackof capability.

Anne stayed at the woman's house all night, but she did not sleep well.

On the one hand, she was unfamiliar with the place, and everything outside the window next to herwas pitch black. Whenever the wind blew, the woods in the distance would make terrifying howlingnoises. On the other hand, she had done something wrong and felt uneasy. Anne wondered whatAnthony was doing now. Was he eager to replace her immediately so he could divorce her?

Anne tossed and turned, unable to sleep well. In the blink of an eye, the night had passed.

So, was Anthony still angry after the night?

Anne saw the old phone used by the woman and asked, "Can I borrow your phone to make a call?""Sure, sure." The woman did not refuse. After all, she was given so much money.

Anne remembered Mia's phone number, and she hesitated for a while before making the call.

The dialing tone almost stopped before it was finally answered. "Hello, who is this?"

When she heard Mia's familiar voice, Anne became emotional. "Mia, it's me."

"Mrs. Marwood, you finally called. Are you in hiding now?" Mia asked.

"Yes. I'm in a rural place...what's Anthony doing now? Is he angry about Bianca getting hurt?" Anneasked timidly.

"He's furious!"

Anne's chest tightened. Then, she asked again with uncertainty, "Is he r-really furious?"

"Mr. Marwood is looking for you everywhere in anger. I don't know what he wants to do, but we'reshocked. We've never seen Mr. Marwood so angry!" Mia distorted the facts and said in a heavy tone.Anne's heart was in so much pain that she burst into tears.

Was Bianca that important to him?

If that was the case, she dared not to appear.

"Mrs. Marwood, you must continue to hide, and you can't contact Mr. Marwood. Otherwise, no onewill be able to help you,” Mia reminded her.

"Got it..."

"Mrs. Marwood, where are you now? Tell me your location. I'll go and see you." Mia said.

"I-I'm in a village..." Anne struggled to tell Mia where she was.
