Chapter 882 She Was Missing


    While E was drinking, she divulged to Queeny what had been on her mind for years.


    “You know what, Queeny? I’m not really an orphan. I have a father, but I’ve never met him in my life.”


    It seemed that E wasn’t good at drinking. She became tipsy after just a few sses of wine.


    Pouring wine for herself, E murmured, “He abandoned my mom before she gave birth to me. Since I


    was born, he has nevere to me even though he knows he has such a daughter.”


    “I used to believe that he must have something that he found awkward to disclose, so I bore him no


    grudge even though he had never fulfilled his paternal obligations.”


    “Not until now do I realize that I have been finding excuses for him to make myself feel better. He has


    no intention whatsoever to acknowledge me as his daughter.”


    “Although I’ve already grown up and I ask for nothing more than having a family like everyone else


    does, he will not grant me this little wish.”


    “Queeny, do you think I’m pathetic and silly?”


    It had never urred to Queeny that E should have such a pitiful origin.


    Her heart grabbed by sympathy, Queeny patted E on the shoulder and said, “It’s not that you’re silly,


    but that your so-called father is unworthy of what you’ve done for him.”


    Queeny had known since long ago that some people were not worthy of the parental titles.


    So it didn’t surprise her at all that there should be such a man as E’s father walking the earth.


    Although she was not acquainted with E’s father, Queeny could imagine from E’s words what a


    callous and selfish man he was.


    With teary eyes, E mumbled, “I know he’s not worthy of it, but I’m dying for his acknowledgement. No


    one knows how much I wish to have a family.”


    “Now it seems I will not have it, never ever. No family, and nothing else whatsoever.”


    E’s voice trailed off.


    Finally, she copsed onto the table.


    Queeny shook her shoulders and called, “E?”


    E made no move.


    Queeny gave a sigh.


    E seemed to have really got drunk.


    It was outrageous that E’s father, whoever he was, should be so cruel to his own daughter, denying


    her even when he knew her existence.


    No matter who this man was, he should pray not to be caught by Queeny, or he would be penalized for


    what he had done.


    With these thoughts, Queeny summoned the waiter and paid the bill, when all of a sudden, she was


    seized by a curious dizziness.


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    Shaking her head, Queeny felt it odd that she should be giddy without drinking much.


    Could it be that her long rehabilitation had made her susceptible to alcohol?


    Fortunately, the dizziness was only slight as tipsiness, so Queeny paid no attention to it.


    Having paid the bill, Queeny woke E up and told her to go.


    Much wine as E had drunk, she was notpletely overwhelmed.


    Not wanting Dean to see E so drunk, Queeny didn’t summon the bodyguards. She helped E to


    stand on her feet and went out with her.


    “Queeny.”


    E called faintly when they were heading out.


    “Well, what’s it?”


    “I’d like to go to the washroom.”


    Queeny turned and looked aside. Seeing that there was a washroom in the corridor outside, she said,


    “OK. I’ll take you there.”


    She helped E towards the washroom.


    Dean and the other bodyguards were in the adjacent room and avable at any moment.


    But Queeny didn’t call them now, intending to ask them to leave together after they came out from the


    washroom.


    Therefore, the bodyguards didn’t know at the moment that Queeny and E had already left their dining


    room.


    The washroom was right at the end of the corridor. Having walked in, Queeny said to E, “Go ahead.


    I’ll wait for you here.”


    E looked at her and simpered, “Queeny, you’re so sweet.”


    Queeny sighed.


    “Don’t mind me. Take care of yourself. Today is a special case. You’re not to drink so much again.”


    E smiled, “OK.”


    Letting go of Queeny, she turned and went inside.


    Queeny waited at the entrance for a while, feeling the daze in her head getting worse and worse.


    Supporting her forehead, she wondered, “Why am I such a weak drinker today?”


    In the haze, she heard a rustle from behind.


    Thinking it was E, she turned around.


    Just then, a chill shed across her back. With instincts gained from years of walking on the verge of


    death, her body outstripped her brain in reaction.


    She immediately turned and struck a blow backward with her elbow.


    But her arms went limp and the blow turned out devoid of any strength.


    She was astounded, when a pang attacked the nape of her neck.


    With ast strip of consciousness, she caught a glimpse of a man in a silver mask.


    …


    Queeny was missing.


    It was fifteen minutester that Felix was informed of the news.


    Having finished lunch and heard nothing from the next room, Dean, who was always cautious, went out


    to have a look.


    To his astonishment, the room was empty.


    He summoned the waiter and learned that the bills of the two rooms had long been paid and that the


    two women customers had left no message as to where they would go.


    Horrified, Dean hastened to investigate.


    However, the whole restaurant had been searched and there was no sight of Queeny and E.


    They checked the CCTV and found that thest picture of the two women was taken as they went into


    the washroom.


    For privacy’s sake, there were naturally no cameras in the washroom.


    So the two just vanished into thin air after they had entered the washroom.


    Learning the news, Felix was incandescent with rage. He ordered aplete search of the whole city.


    The restaurant where they had dined, as the focus of suspicion, was locked down straight away.


    Felix checked the washroom personally and discovered that this ce, seemingly enclosed by walls


    with no entrance other than the usual one, should have a wall that turned out to be a movable stone


    door.


    Due to the intricate design of the washroom, the wall could be easily taken for a decorative device.


    Actually, it contained a secret gadget that allowed it to be pushed open.


    Now it seemed highly probable that Queeny and E had been abducted.


    And it was through this stone door that the kidnapper left the restaurant.


    Having learned this, Felix immediately demanded an investigation starting from the door.


    Outside the door, however, was a main street.


    With all the hustle and bustle of the street, it was very difficult to carry out the investigation.
