Chapter 1667
Yosef's Disappearance
Nathan watched Shane rushing around and realized that Emmanuel was very busy, so he decided not to bother him anymore.
"Master, I'm returning to Zovince to wait while you and Mistress resolve things in Nuthana so you can help me make myself popular!" whispered Nathan to Emmanuel.
Emmanuel snickered. What's the purpose? To show off in front of his crush? "Emmanuel, what did Nathan want to talk about?" inquired Shane.
Nathan was about to leave and was taken aback. How could Emmanuel have a junior as incapable as Shane while being brilliant at everything?
Admitting to everyone in Zovince that the master of the great Nathan had a hapless junior was humiliating!
"Nothing important. What do you need?" Emmanuel knew how undependable Shane was and chose not to shift focus and risk Shane forgetting anything vital.
Yosef's Disappearance
"Ah, yes! Something big just occurred!" Shane's worried look eventually returned. "Yosef did not arrive back at Hero's Village, and nobody knows where he is!"
"How could this have happened?" Emmanuel was puzzled as he had been informed by Santiago via a phone call on the final day of the Nuthana Grand Martial Showdown confirming Yosef's arrival back at Emmanuel's old godfather's side.
Why hadn't they returned to the village together?
"I don't know the details. Santiago has just called to say he could not get you and asked for your help in finding Yosef. Yosef had wanted some time to himself before returning but has disappeared and cannot be tracked down after four days." Shane spilled everything in a rush, allowing Emmanuel to understand the situation even from the stuttered explanation. Apparently, Yosef had originally planned to go back but failed to do so, but where could he have gone without any family members to rely on? Did he fear arrest by the authorities and hide away by himself?
Yosef's Disappearance
"Alright, tell Santiago that I will make arrangements to find Yosef." Emmanuel could not leave Yosef for the sake of his old godfather and had to try guiding Yosef back to the light or resort to extreme ways.NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
"Got it. I'll tell him right away!" Shane rushed off while Emmanuel hurried off to the banquet hall to find Mackenzie. The growing influence of the Quillen family meant increased potential enemies, so he needed to stay near her for her protection.
The banquet guests were friends and allies of the Quillens, and the event went on without a hitch. The couple eventually let down their guard when they got back to the mansion. Sage's promotion to the personal bodyguard of the president of the Nuthana Chamber of Commerce allowed him to lead a team of a hundred bodyguards responsible for the mansion's security, which relieved Emmanuel.
"Mackenzie, can we read Quintus' letter now?" Emmanuel had not forgotten about the matter but thought it less important and procrastinated on reading it after the sudden issue with Terence. With everything important dealt with, it was a good time to check out what the idiot had to say.
Yosef's Disappearance
"Go on. What if it's a love letter?" Mackenzie was in a good mood and even made a rare joke.
"It would be gotten rid of. You think I would let you keep another man's love.
letter?" Emmanuel smiled teasingly.
"Ha! How dare you?" Mackenzie feigned annoyance but secretly felt somewhat affectionate. She liked that he was possessive of her as even an authoritative company CEO wanted to be tenderly led by her husband!
Soon, the letter, which consisted of a unique material, was taken out and opened, making their expressions grow serious while they read.
'Mackenzie, I wonder if you have finalized your divorce with Emmanuel yet
when you read this. Well, hopefully not, since...no! Of course, I sincerely wish
for you to get divorced so we can get married after I come back, Com Mackenzie
My affection toward you will never be swayed, Mackenzie. I cannot fathom getting married to anyone else!"
Emmanuel had the urge to burn it now, to be honest.
Yosef's Disappearance Who even are you? How dare you be interested in my wife? I almost forgot about you, my so-called romantic archnemesis!
Fortunately, the thing he had been most interested in came next.
'I am at the Dark Night Islands because of my sister. Claudette somehow survived a certainly deadly plummet from a cliff by holding on to a branch.
Her plight is one-of-a-kind, giving me the feeling that somebody was watching her for some time. That person has rescued her and brought her here!"
