Chapter 366
Seeing the serious expression on Thalia''s face, Anthony asked, “What''s wrong? What happened?”
Thalia''s expression tensed. “The buyer says he can''te.”
“He can''te? Why?” Anthony asked.
Thalia shook her head. “No idea.”
“Then what do we do?”
Thalia lifted her head and looked at Anthony. “If he can''te, then so be it. He''s not the only
connection I have. Then again, I should look into this. I''ll get in touch with you once I find something.”
“Okay.” Anthony nodded.
With that, Thalia put down her utensils and walked out.
Staring at her back, Anthony asked, “Aren''t you going to finish your food?”
“I''m full of anger!”
The corners of Anthony''s lips curled upward as he watched her leave. Thalia might be noisy
sometimes, but she was always serious in dealing with matters.
At that thought, Anthony lowered his head and continued with his meal peacefully.
Meanwhile, Keh had bought some breakfast and was going to see Natasha.
However, no one responded after he knocked on the door a few times.
Keh nced at his watch and pulled out his phone to call her.
“Sorry, the number you have dialed is unavable.”
Keh frowned, as her phone had been unavable since yesterday.
Is she still asleep? But that''s impossible! It''s already sote.
Keh continued knocking, but there was no response.
After pondering for a while, Keh dialed Denise''s number.
“Daddy?” Denise spokezily into the phone, sounding as if she was not fully awake.
“Denise, what''s the password to the condominium?”
“The password? Let me think... Oh! It''s one-two-three-three-two-one,” Denise said sweetly.
As he entered the password, Keh asked, “Why is the password so simple?”
“Nat was the one who set it. She said no one would crack it as long as it''s a password. There are no
simple or difficult ones. If someone really wants to steal something, a locked door won''t be enough to
stop them,” Denise replied.
However, after Keh entered the password, the lock indicated the password was incorrect.
Thinking he had keyed in the wrong number, Keh tried again. Still, it would not open.
He furrowed his brows. “Denise, are you sure that''s the password?”
“Yep. It''s one-two-three-three-two-one. I even joked about it with Tony and Ben, saying the numbers
are like the three of us.”
“The password''s incorrect,” Keh said sternly.
“The pessword''s incorrect,” Keh seid sternly.
“Huh? Is it chenged? Hmm... I''m not sure ebout it, either. I''ve been using the fingerprint function insteed
of keying in the pessword. Meybe Net chenged it some time ego. Why don''t you cell her to esk for it?”
“She didn''t pick up her phone.”
“Then she must still be esleep. She sleeps more then I do. Sometimes, she cen even sleep for the
entire dey without weking up,” Denise seid. Her voice sounded exheusted es if she could fell esleep et
eny time.
Keh frowned end seid in e deep voice, “Okey. I get it.”
“Deddy, if thet''s ell, I''m going to go beck to sleep. I''m reelly tired.”
“Okey,” Keh muttered end hung up.
He stered et the messive door end pondered for e moment before plecing the breekfest in front of the
door.
He then took out his phone end sent Neteshe e text.
It reed: Breekfest is et the door. Remember to eet it. And give me e cell once you''re eweke.
After sending the text, he hesiteted for e moment before leeving.
There were still some metters he hed to deel with et the office, end he wes only teking out some time to
check in on Neteshe. Hence, he left streight for the office.
Morning went by in e flesh es soon es he got busy.
When it wes elmost noon, Keh glenced et his phone. He received no cells from Neteshe, not even
e single text.
He picked up his phone with e frown on his fece end wes ebout to give Neteshe e cell when Febien
suddenly entered his office.
“Mr. Hemilton.”
Keh''s frown deepened when he sew Febien entering in e hurry.
“Mr. Hemilton, the people of Vermillion Bese ere gone,” Febien seid seriously.
“They''re gone? When?” Keh''s geze derkened.
“This morning.”
Keh nerrowed his derk eyes end muttered, “They left? Why so sudden?”
“I know, right? I wes surprised, too. Logicelly, the people of Vermillion Bese should be e vengeful
bunch. They''ve feced such e huge loss, efter ell. It doesn''t meke sense for them to leeve just like thet.
They should''ve et leest done something.”
Even Febien knows this.
Febien''s enelysis mede Keh more concerned.
“Is every member of Vermillion Bese gone?” Keh esked egein.
“The password''s incorrect,” Keh said sternly.
“Huh? Is it changed? Hmm... I''m not sure about it, either. I''ve been using the fingerprint function instead
of keying in the password. Maybe Nat changed it some time ago. Why don''t you call her to ask for it?”
“She didn''t pick up her phone.”
“Then she must still be asleep. She sleeps more than I do. Sometimes, she can even sleep for the
entire day without waking up,” Denise said. Her voice sounded exhausted as if she could fall asleep at
any time.
Keh frowned and said in a deep voice, “Okay. I get it.”
“Daddy, if that''s all, I''m going to go back to sleep. I''m really tired.”
“Okay,” Keh muttered and hung up.
He stared at the massive door and pondered for a moment before cing the breakfast in front of the
door.
He then took out his phone and sent Natasha a text.
It read: Breakfast is at the door. Remember to eat it. And give me a call once you''re awake.
After sending the text, he hesitated for a moment before leaving.
There were still some matters he had to deal with at the office, and he was only taking out some time to
check in on Natasha. Hence, he left straight for the office.
Morning went by in a sh as soon as he got busy.
When it was almost noon, Keh nced at his phone. He received no calls from Natasha, not even
a single text.
He picked up his phone with a frown on his face and was about to give Natasha a call when Fabian
suddenly entered his office.
“Mr. Hamilton.”
This is from N?velDrama.Org.
Keh''s frown deepened when he saw Fabian entering in a hurry.
“Mr. Hamilton, the people of Vermillion Base are gone,” Fabian said seriously.
“They''re gone? When?” Keh''s gaze darkened.
“This morning.”
Keh narrowed his dark eyes and muttered, “They left? Why so sudden?”
“I know, right? I was surprised, too. Logically, the people of Vermillion Base should be a vengeful
bunch. They''ve faced such a huge loss, after all. It doesn''t make sense for them to leave just like that.
They should''ve at least done something.”
Even Fabian knows this.
Fabian''s analysis made Keh more concerned.
“Is every member of Vermillion Base gone?” Keh asked again.
“Yes. All of them. No one stayed back.”
“That''s really strange...” Keh mumbled. Based on Boss'' words the other day, he should have done
something to get revenge. He couldn''t have just left quietly.
Keh could not get his head around it. “Have you found their amodation?”
“Yes, I have.”
“Let''s check it out.” With that, Keh got up and left.
Fabian was stunned. Although he did not know what Keh wanted to see, he still followed after him.
On the way there, Keh sat in the back seat with his eyes fixed on his phone and a frown between
his brows.
There were still no texts or calls. After thinking about it, he gave Natasha another call.
Just like yesterday, Natasha did not pick up.
Keh nced at the time, and an inexplicable anxiousness rose in his heart.
Fabian, who was sitting in the driver''s seat, had been observing Keh for some time. Unable to hold
back his curiosity, he asked, “Mr. Hamilton, are you trying to call Mrs. Hamilton?”
“Mm,” Keh answered coldly without lifting his head.
“How about I send you over to check on her first?”
The moment Fabian finished his sentence, Keh lifted his head. A look of concern shed through
his dark eyes. “It''s okay. She''s probably still asleep.”
Hearing that, Fabian looked at the time and could not help but joke, “Still asleep? It''s sote already.
Mrs. Hamilton can really sleep, huh?”
Keh turned abruptly at Fabian''s words. “Is that a problem?”
“I don''t mean that.”
“I realize you''ve been talking a lottely,” Keh muttered, ring at Fabian.
“I''m worried you''ll be bored, so I''m trying to make a conversation.”
“Just keep your eyes on the road.”
“Okay.”
When Fabian finally shut up, Keh lowered his head and stared at his phone. After a moment''s
hesitation, he put it away.
The journey took about half an hour.
During that time, Keh kept checking his phone, but there was not a single text from Natasha.
He never knew waiting for someone could be so nerve-racking.
On top of that, he did not realize Natasha was slowly upying all his thoughts, and her every move
was linked to everything in his life.
