Chapter 331
"Erica, how could you think like that? As soon as she bes the Young Lady of Hanover family,
our Shell family will be the great benefactor of their family. We can also benefit from it and we can
also get a better life in the future!"
"No!" Erica stepped back and covered her ears, "You don''t know anything. You have never given
me enough money! Even when you gave me Kimberly''s money back then, it was still not enough!
Mom, I don''t like the way we are living at all. Do you know how rich my ssmates are and how
capable their parents are? I... I also want to be like them, but... why must it be Kimberly? How is her
life so different from mine? I am clearly more excellent than her."
Speaking of this, Erica seemed unable to control herself and she screamed a few times. Then, she
turned around and ran out.
"Erica!"
Mrs. Shell wanted to stop her, but Erica was at a young age. Thus, she ran so fast that she
disappeared as soon as she got out of the house.
"Forget it. She''s just a little girl. Once she has thought it through, she will know that it''s a good thing
for us too," Mrs. Shell thought.
Thinking that she could repay her gambling debts, and that she could take advantage of the
Hanover family''s influence to improve the Shell family''s status, Mrs. Shell felt very happy in her
heart. On the other side, Kimberly was in a miserable state.
After Vera gave Benedict a call, he soon arrived at the ce she had mentioned.
"Why isn''t she here?" Benedict asked with a serious look.
Vera was so anxious that she almost cried, "I have looked around but I can''t find her. When I called
you, she was still here but she suddenly disappeared into thin air, and I can''t find her either... I don''t
know where she went... I''m sorry, it''s my fault for not keeping an eye on her. If anything happens to
her, I... I will never forgive myself."
Benedict nced at Vera. Seeing that she was so anxious that her eyes had turned red and her
tears were about to fall, he felt that she must be extremely nervous. He didn''t me her, but he
whispered, "Please calm down. It''s no use worrying now. The top priority is to find her first. Since
you are so close to her, you should calm down first and think about whether there is any ce she
would go.
"Are there any possible ces?"
Vera was stumped by this question. Although she had a good rtionship with Kimberly, they had
not known each other for a long time. She couldn''t say that she knew Kimberly very well.
If they were to talk about a ce where Kimberly would possibly go, Vera really couldn''t answer it.
It was probably Sylvia who knew Kimberly better. Although Sylvia was not a kind person, she had
been pretending in front of Kimberly for many years after all. She would know something about
Kimberly since they had known each other for so many years.
Asking Sylvia was the best solution.
However, since Kimberly and Sylvia had quarreled and became rivals in love, it was not appropriate
for them to ask Sylvia for help. Vera was afraid that Sylvia would have ulterior motives instead.
What if Kimberly fell into Sylvia''s trap?
Seeing Vera frown, Benedict guessed that she probably had no idea. He thought for a moment and
said softly, "Don''t worry. I''ve already sent someone here. They will search the area. Once there''s
any news, they''ll report it to me immediately."

Vera looked at Benedict gratefully and said, "Vice President Yardley, thank you very much. Thank
God, you are here. Otherwise, I wouldn''t know what to do."
"Let''s look around again. Let''s not miss out any corners."
"All right," Vera nodded.
After that, they went their separate ways. Vera felt that Benedict''s words were reasonable. She
didn''t pay attention to the corners when she looked for Kimberly earlier. If she paid attention this
time, would she be able to find her?
When she thought of this, she rekindled her hope and followed the alley in search of Kimberly.
After taking a few steps, Benedict''s phone rang all of a sudden. He picked it up and asked, "How is
it?" Valeria said, "We''ve already searched the area nearby ording to your instructions. However,
I think you''d better check on the surveince footage if possible."
Upon hearing this, Benedict frowned slightly and said, "She has disappeared for only less than an
hour. It''s not practical to check the surveince footage. Moreover, there are some blind spots in
some of the corners. Thus, I don''t think the surveince cameras can capture her. Send more
people here and ask them to search around. Of course, don''t forget to ask the people in the stores
nearby and report to me immediately if there''s any news."
Valeria said, "Got it."
After hanging up the phone, Benedict looked around and felt a little uneasy.
"Kimberly, please be safe."
He didn''t know how long he had been searching, but Benedict still couldn''t find Kimberly. His mobile
phone was silent. Benedict was calm at first, but now he was nervous.
Where on earth did Kimberly go?
Benedict stopped and took out his mobile phone as he couldn''t help but call Vera to ask about the
situation.
Although he knew that if Vera had found her, she would definitely call to inform him. However, he
still carried the hope that maybe she had found Kimberly, but she didn''t have the time to contact
him.
Vera was very excited when she received the phone call from Benedict, "Have you found
Kimberly?"
Hearing this, Benedict knew that Vera hadn''t found Kimberly as well.
"You couldn''t find her as well, could you?" Hearing that Benedict was silent, Vera knew that he
hadn''t found Kimberly as well. She was so anxious that she almost cried, "What should I do? There
are so many people looking for her, yet there is still no news. Where can she go? Vice President
Yardley... It''s all my fault for not keeping an eye on her."
It was Vera''s first time to be so out of control. Benedict was also upset at first, but when she said
that, he suddenly didn''t know what to say tofort her. He was also anxious as he couldn''t find
Kimberly.
Benedict looked around, pursed his thin lips, and finally said, "Don''t worry, I''ll find her. I definitely
will."
After that, he hung up the phone.
Benedict then continued moving forward and asked a woman nearby a few questions.
"Excuse me, Miss. May I ask if you have seen a girl..." Benedict briefly described the clothes that
Kimberly was wearing on that day, and then described her facial features.
The woman blinked her eyes and looked clueless. Benedict sighed in his heart. Just as he thought
that he couldn''t get an answer from her, she suddenly said, "Oh, are you looking for the girl in a
white dress? I just saw her!"
Hearing this, Benedict''s face changed, "You saw her? Where was she?" "I saw her entering a car. A
luxury car!"
"She got in a car?" Benedict frowned as he thought, "And it''s a luxury car? Then, it doesn''t seem
like she has gotten into a taxi. Whose car did she get into then?"
Thinking of this, Benedict''s face changed.
