Chapter 2126


    "I don''t think the wedding is happening anytime soon," the bodyguard mocked as he watched the


    entire Jennings family erupt into chaos. "I suppose there''s no point for me to stay here any longer."


    "Don''t be so sure yet," Chad immediately said. "Dean must have his men searching for Ang


    already. He is more powerful than us here in Bridgedale, so you should stay here and see if they


    find her in the end. It''s still better than going to search for


    Ang on your own."


    "You have a point, Chad," the bodyguard said, before hanging up.


    Chad checked the time and noticed that it was only seven in the morning.


    Elliot was probably still asleep.


    He went toward the master bedroom and opened the door slightly to look inside; as expected, Elliot


    was still asleep.


    Elliot had drunk too much the night before and Chad did not think that he would be able to wake up


    until noon.


    Chad, too, had finished a whole bottle of red wine on his own, but he felt no other difort apart


    from the mild headache.


    He distinctly knew that he was not drunk, but he would have been having drunk this much in the


    past. Perhaps his tolerance had improved, or maybe he was simply too worried about the fact that


    Ang was missing and was not rxed enough to be drunk.


    He desperately wanted to brag to Mike and tell him that he had remained sober after drinking a


    whole bottle of wine, but he knew that Mike would not believe him.


    Chad stood outside the door dazedly for a while, before closing the door and returning to the living


    room.


    After breakfast, Amelia tried calling Elliot but the call was not answered.


    Elliot had made an appointment with her the day before to take the device inside his head out, and


    Amelia had not been able to sleep since he contacted her.

    Performing the surgery itself meant that she would be murdering none other than Elliot. Though he


    had consented to it, she still felt stressed and could not help but panic when she failed to reach


    Elliot.


    "Did something happen to Elliot?" she thought, "Did Avery find out? Will the surgery today carry on


    as scheduled?" Meanwhile, Avery was sitting in the dining room with her breakfast when Sebastian


    called and told her that Ang was missing.


    She froze. She had thought of all the different possibilities of what could happen once Dean married


    Ang, but she had not expected Ang to go missing.


    "Maybe she was kidnapped?" Avery guessed.


    "Probably not. I''ll let you in on a secret: her wedding dress is gone as well. She probably snuck


    away on her own," Sebastian whispered. "She is such a strange woman. She was literally flirting


    with my dad in public yesterday, and today, she has run away from the wedding. My dad''s blood


    pressure has gone up again, and the doctors are tending to him now." When Ang went upstage


    the day before to receive the award, she made a point to thank Dean and publicly dered her love


    for him.


    No one would have imagined that she had no intention of marrying Dean after all.


    Avery could not help but think back to herst encounter with Ang.
