Chapter 193 Phillip Has Disappeared
Chapter 193 Phillip Has Disappeared
Ann had spent several days trying to persuade Nikki to give up on calling Phillip daddy but she failed.
She remembered she once stopped Nikki calling Karl daddy by a strawberry cake.
During these days, Todd and Aydan were mad with anxiety.
Because Phillip had not returned since he left Dylan Villa.
He was out of contact.
Because the internal situation of the Moore family had always been very tense. In addition, many
people wanted to take advantage of the Moore Group. If the news of Phillip's missing went public, it
would bring a disaster.
Todd and Aydan immediately blocked the news. During the day, Aydan worked at the company as
usual. Todd used his intelligence network to find out where Phillip was.
However, what Todd found was that Phillip went to the TV station and then raced his car in the most
dangerous tunnel in River City. After that, he went missing.
...
In Dylan Villa.
"Darn!"
Todd tossed his phone away in frustration. He turned to look at Aydan, who was also frowning with his
hair sticking up at all angles.
"It has been more than a week and there is no Phillip's news. If this goes on, those old foxes will find it
out sooner or later!"
Aydan had a complicated expression on his face.
He looked up at Todd and asked, "Well, maybe Phillip is kidnapped."
Todd's face froze, and he looked at Aydan.
The two of them recalled the car accident Phillip had many years ago and his damaged face.
Thinking of this, they were scared stiff.
Todd turned to look at Aydan with a serious look on his face.
"Aydan, do your best to calm the Moores." After a pause, he continued, "Keep an eye on Adam. I'll take
care of the rest."
Aydan pursed his lips and nodded.
Technically, Aydan and Adam were blood brothers, but Aydan had been more attached to Phillip since
he was a child.
Todd said Aydan was a fan of Phillip.
In contrast, Aydan was not that close to Adam.
After Hilda disappeared, people thought that it was Phillip's act of vengeance.
Because of the incident, Adam left River City and took over the overseas business of the Moore family.
However, Aydan resolutely rejected Adam's proposal to go abroad. He chose to stay in the country and
became Phillip's special assistant.
He did not want to believe that his mother was the murderer behind the car accident, nor did he want to
believe that his mother's missing had something to do with Phillip.
He knew that over the years, Phillip and Todd had been investigating Hilda and Adam and they kept
that from him to avoid embarrassment.
So Aydan was not surprised that Aydan suspected that Adam kidnapped Phillip.
In his heart, he still hoped that Phillip's missing had nothing to do with Adam.
...
In the Moore Group.
Ann looked down at the message Daisy had sent her, her long eyelashes trembling.
[Daisy texted, Phillip is missing.]
In the working room, the perfumers, the perfume critics, and salesmen sat around a long table, holding
sticks of perfume in their hands. They were discussing a feasibility plan that was closest to the target
aroma. There were dozens of biscuits, cigarettes, and articles of everyday use on the table.
Everyone was busy in the room.
Ann stared at the message for a long time. She typed in a few words and then deleted them. She
repeated this several times.
In the end, Ann closed the dialog box.
She felt lost, but she kept comforting herself.
'Phillip is a big shot in River City and even in the country. No one can harm him.'
'He will be fine.'
"What are you doing?"
A gentle voice suddenly came from behind her. Ann was shocked and subconsciously put her phone
behind her back.
She saw Fred looking down at her with a smiling face.
"Nothing."
Fred saw the unnatural look in her eyes and her hands behind her back. Something flashed across his
eyes, but disappeared soon.
He put his hand on Ann's waist and smiled gently.
"I just heard of your idea about the perfume we will launch next quarter. It is very good. If nothing else,
you will become one of the chief perfumers for the next quarter."
"Really?" Ann asked in wonderment.
She was surprised.
"I've just joined the company. Normally, those who can be chief perfumers must have a reputation. But I
..."
"Are you scared?"
Ann shook her head and then nodded with a hesitant expression on her face.
She looked up at Fred.
"Fred, you named me the leading lady of the perfume MV last time. And many people said that you
played favorites. If I, a newcomer, become a chief perfumer this time, I am afraid it will raise more
unnecessary speculation."
Fred chuckled. "Ann, do you remember the sentence you told me? Go your own way, and let others
talk. Appointing you as a chief perfumer has been decided in consultation between the Moore Group
and YG. In this world, seniority is nothing compared to the real ability of a person. The only thing that
can shut those people up is your ability."
Fred added.
"Of course, the premise is that you can come up with a work that satisfies the Moore Group and YG. If
you are not confident enough in yourself, you can refuse this proposal."
What Fred meant was that she was appointed as a chief perfumer not because of her relationship with
Fred. Ann heaved a sigh of relief.
"I will try my best."
It was her dream to become an outstanding perfumer.
Although she felt under stress, she wanted to give it a try.
...
In the following days, Ann spent her time in the company, the hospital, and her apartment. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Her life was simple but full.
It was so full that she did not have the time to think much about Phillip.
Until one day she got off work, Fred sent her and Nikki back to the apartment.
When Ann came out of the elevator with Nikki sleeping in her arms, she saw Phillip leaning against the
door.
It was very dark in the aisle. He did not wear a suit but a simple T-shirt and trousers hanging on his
strapping body.
Between his slender beautiful fingers, there was a cigarette. The smoke rose from his cigarette and
blurred his handsome face, making him look sexier.
There was only a passageway between the two.
However, when Ann saw the look in Phillip's eyes through the smoke, she felt there was a great
distance between them.
