The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife

Chapter 374 Everything's Finally Coming To An End

The crash was not reported at the first instant as there was a signal-blocking instrument in the area of the plane crash.

Inquiry of why George Wright and his squad had yet to arrive was sent early in the morning of the next day, prompting an emergency investigation when they realized that things looked askew.

The wreckage was found at two in the afternoon but there was no one among the remains of the aircraft. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

It was rumored that VIP was enraged when he received the news, questioning at once why the pilot's signal before the crash was blocked and why there was no notification regarding the plane wreck.

The responsible nation replied that they had taken action in the first instant and that the plane crash was due to a pre-installed device in the aircraft. Their suggestion was to hunt down the person who installed it. If the police’s investigation ability was lacking, their investigation bureau could help out.

Both nations were thus engaged in an argument regarding the plane crash and the disappearance of George Wright as well as the other members.

For the time being, no closure could be provided.

However, the news felt like the end of the world for the Wrights who found out through the phone call.

"The plane crashed... George and Oliver... disappeared? No, this isn't possible." The phone slipped through her grip as blood drained from Luna's face.

How could someone put a bomb in the plane out of the blue? Why did it happen so suddenly?

It sounded fake. She did not believe it. She would never believe it.

"Luna, calm down. George and Oliver can't be found. It doesn't mean that something happened to them." Pawpaw Clark said gently, "Even if the plane crashed, they’d be able to escape with their trained skills. I think they’re also trying their best right now."

"Yes, they'd be able to escape for sure! They’ll definitely appear at the venue of the exchange during the live tonight,” Luna muttered and scrambled to switch the channel to the international one and stared at the television.

Eight in the evening was the time for the friendly exchange.

It was time. Then, one hour passed. After that, two hours slipped by.

There was neither George or Oliver.

Ultimately, the other party could only express regretfully that the disappearance of George Wright and his squad prompted the cancellation of the diplomatic exchange. When the representative of the other team spoke, he spoke mockingly, "There was a plane crash, but there were no corpses. They should've all ran out. I think there's only one reason for their absence to this date, that is, they’re scared. That's why they dare not make their appearance and have even used being lost as an excuse to avoid the exchange this time. I look down on them."

"What's this person spewing!" Anna was shaking in rage.

"This shouldn't be. I know how George is. He'd crawl there if he has to. The whole squad isn’t even there. Did some accident happen?" Pawpaw Clark mumbled t o himself. 1

Luna jolted.

Retrieving her phone, she called the same number over and over again. The phone was shut off. It was futile. The phone remained turned off.

Tears were streaming down Luna's face.

'George, Oliver, where are the two of you now...'

Pawpaw Clark wore a ghost of a smile looking at Luna's anguish. There was no doubt. George and Oliver Wright were dead. If they were alive, they would not have not contacted Luna too.

The disappearance of the whole squad was still brewing and the two nations were still hurling insults at each other, but no one showed signs of manifesting it into something tangible. After all, one move would trigger an avalanche.

In addition, with George and Oliver Wright gone, the headstrong ones in the internal department slowly quieted down with the calm, reserved ones taking majority.

Three days.

George and his team were still nowhere to be found.

Luna had been hopeful, but that hope was slowly slipping out of her. Anna was heartbroken but she could only push herself to be strong and comfort her mother.

Taking in Luna and Anna's state, Jacob was unsettled. Moreover, he had some insider information.

Joseph’s condition was George and Oliver's lives. Now that they had disappeared suddenly, did Julian... No, it could not be. Julian would not do something like that. He told him to believe him too.

Before things came to an end, Jacob could not tell anyone about Joseph's request.

Pawpaw Clark locked himself in his room and through the designed projector, he met Julian again.

"How's your consideration?" Pawpaw Clark asked faintly. His voice was modified too. There was no hint that could be picked up.

Julian looked at him expressionlessly. “Are you happy now? George and Oliver Wright are dead and Susie hates me to the core! She's trying to kill herself by not eating. If I didn't forcefully inject her with nutrients,

she may not be alive now!"

Pawpaw Clark smiled. "Time will wash off everything."

His eyes, however, were dark and glum. If Jacob's father had not appeared out of the blue twenty- five years ago, Susan would have died at that time. She should be grateful to have been alive until now. It was unfortunate that she was George's daughter, for she had to die sooner or later.

Julian looked at him coldly, rage simmering under his expression. "Three days are up. I want to leave with Susan. If you don't keep your promise, I'll die here with Susie. But I’ve set up my will. All my assets after my death will be used against Joseph and you who’s behind it all!"

"Why so serious?" Pawpaw Clark's voice was aloof. " Since you’ve decided, I’ll let you go. I only hope that you don't regret it in the future."

"You don't have to worry about it," Julian spat.

Pawpaw Clark wore a meaningful smile. "You'll come back one day, Mr. Shaw."

He turned off the projector again.

It was his right hand, again. Julian widened his eyes.

Why was he going the extra mile to specifically use his right hand?

Not noticing anything wrong, Pawpaw Clark stood before the window after he turned off the projector. Soon. Soon, everything would finally come to an end.
