“During this time, I am nning to send you abroad for a trip to exercise ande back with many good works. This way, your boyfriend’s parents may ept you,” Jane said calmly.


    Upon hearing this, Maria’s eyes lit up instantly. “Thank you so much, Jane. I will work hard.”


    The next day, Jane booked the ne ticket and sent Maria overseas.


    After settling Maria’s matter, the next thing on her list was to deal with Patrick’s issue.


    She frowned as the video on Twitter reyed in her mind. If she didn’t go find him soon enough, someone else might snatch him away from her.


    Just as she was about to call Patrick on her phone, suddenly the news report on TV caught her attention.


    “Flight 3-594 crashed in Flishire…” The host’s voice came through clearly and shook Jane’s heart violently.


    Wasn’t that flight carrying Maria? She tried to reassure herself that it couldn’t be true but failed miserably.


    She immediately called Maria instead of Patrick but got an automated message saying that it was out of service area.


    Out of service area…


    Her heart trembled fiercely at how quickly things had turned sour! She called several times more but only heard a dead tone indicating that the phone had been switched off.


    Jane was stunned, her gaze fixed on the darkening screen, lost in thought.


    “Something’s wrong. We can’t reach Maria over here.”


    The assistant rushed in suddenly, noticing Jane’s vacant expression, and knew that Jane had already found out.


    The office fell into a deathly silence. Just this morning, Maria had been trailing behind Jane, calling out to her, and now an unexpected incident had urred.


    The assistant took a deep breath, unable to say much, and kept her head low.


    “Find her. Send someone to find her quickly.”


    Jane panicked and hurriedly ran out of the office.


    “The police have already dispatched personnel to search for her. We might not be able to contribute much if we go there.”


    The assistant’s voice grew fainter at this critical moment, and she couldn’t say much.


    “That’s true.”


    Jane calmed down and dialed Patrick’s number.


    The call was immediately answered, as Patrick had been waiting for Jane’s call for the past few days.


    “Patrick.”


    Jane’s voice was filled with sadness, tinged with a hint of choking, which made Patrick feel distressed.


    “What happened?”


    The man’s maic and gentle voice came through, soothing Jane.


    “Something happened to Maria. We can’t reach her.”


    Jane almost gritted her teeth as she spoke. She regretted being so hasty in sending Maria abroad.


    Hearing Maria’s name again, the man’s face darkened, but seeing Jane so heartbroken, he suppressed his dissatisfaction.


    “The news just said Maria’s ne crashed. I tried calling her multiple times, but couldn’t get through. The police are searching, but there’s still no news.”


    Jane sniffled, making Patrick feel even more heartbroken.


    Although he didn’t have a good impression of Maria, human life was at stake, and he had to help her at a time like this.


    Moreover, Jane was so devastated.


    Patrick frowned. He had never seen Jane so sad and upset before.


    “Alright, don’t worry. Leave it to me.”


    Patrick’s warm and confident voice made the heavy burden in Jane’s heart slowly lift.


    Jane was aware of Patrick’s influence. He had subordinates all over the country, and if anyone could find Maria, it would be him. There was still a glimmer of hope.


    “Okay!” Jane nodded. “Thank you.”


    “You’re my wife. It’s what I should do.”


    Hearing those words, Jane’s face blushed slightly.


    She hadn’t expected Patrick to be so eloquent.


    After hanging up the phone, Patrick immediately started investigating the matter.This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    At the same time, he mobilized his own forces to search for Maria’s whereabouts near the crash site.


    Jane sat in the office, restless throughout the morning. She med herself for allowing Maria to go abroad so early, as this wouldn’t have happened to her.


    “Jane, stop thinking about it. I just made coffee for you.”


    The assistant couldn’t bear to see Jane like this and entered with a cup of coffee, but Jane still had a lifeless expression.


    No one wanted something like this to happen. Not only had Maria brought in huge profits for thepany recently, but her rtionship with Jane was also excellent.


    So it was normal for Jane to react this way.


    It wasn’t until evening that Jane finally received a call from Patrick.


    “How is it going?”


    Jane answered quickly, her tone filled with urgency.


    There was silence on the other end of the line for a while, which only made Jane more anxious.


    “Don’t worry, we will find her.”


    Those words dealt a heavy blow to Jane, and she stared nkly at the ceiling.


    As the silence continued on the other end, Patrick started to panic.


    “Don’t be sad. We will find her. It’s just a matter of time.”


    Patrick opened his mouth, but at that moment, he didn’t know what else he could say tofort her.


    “I’m going to find her,” Jane said.


    Jane’s face suddenly became serious, and she hung up the phone.


    She stood up, quickly grabbed her coat from the chair, and ran out of the office.


    She hailed a taxi and directly told the driver the location of Maria’s ne crash.


    The ne had crashed by the seaside. As soon as Jane got out of the car, she rushed straight towards it.


    The area had already been cordoned off by the police, and it was crowded with people.


    “Why did youe?” Patrick saw Jane running towards him from a distance, his face darkening.


    “I couldn’t sit still. I had toe and find her myself,” Jane replied, breathing slightly heavily. She had been exerting herself too much these past few days, and her body couldn’t handle running even a few steps.


    Patrick stopped her immediately, saying, “There are so many people here searching. If I can’t find youter, what should I do?”


    “But I can’t just stand by and do nothing,” Jane retorted, stubbornly.


    “This ce is sorge, searching here is like finding a needle in a haystack. Even if you go, it’s not certain that you’ll find her,” Patrick said, seeing Jane’s pale face, feeling a painful tug at his heart.


    “How will we know if we don’t try?” Jane said, and without waiting for Patrick’s response, she bypassed him and hurried towards the direction of the sea.


    Most of the people surrounding them were journalists. The news of the ne crash had already attracted many people, and upon hearing that Patrick had arrived on the scene and sent people to search, even more journalists arrived.


    Patrick had been in the public eye these past few days, and even this time, he didn’t avoid it. As he watched Jane’s gradually receding figure, he fell into deep thought.


    Meanwhile, on the other side, the Ragsdill family, who had always been dissatisfied with Maria, also arrived.
