The next day, sunlight pours into the room through the French windows.
On the big soft bed, Aaron has not gotten up yet.
In the living room, Randy has already prepared breakfast, but no one comes out of the room. He looks anxiously at his watch several times.
Didn"t Aaron book a plane ticket to take Katrina to Abbe City this morning?
If this keeps up, they will be late for their flight. Should he knock at the door and remind him?
Randy also used to be young, so he has some misgivings.
Morning is when a man is very excited. If Aaron is doing something unspeakable with Katrina, and he goes in there rashly, he will disturb Aaron"s interests.
He can wait a little longer.
Aaron always has his own plans and arrangements. It"s probably fine.
In the bedroom, Aaron frowns and opens his eyes.
Perhaps it"s because of the wine that he sleeps so long.
The first thing Aaron does when he wakes up is to take the girl in his arms and try to kiss the corner of her mouth.
Her initiative and cooperation yesterday made him feel unprecedented joy.
His love for her definitely increases.
However…
Although he finds that the thing he"s holding is soft, it"s not as soft and smooth as usual.
Looking down, Aaron sees a pillow in his arms.
He frowns and searches for Katrina.
Why does he have a pillow in his arms?
Where is Katrina?
Why is she not with him?
The bathroom door is closed, and there"s no sound of running water, which seems to indicate that she"s not in the bathroom.
So where did she go?
Aaron is puzzled for a moment, and then he a.s.sumes that she probably woke up early and wanted to get out of bed. To avoid waking him up, she put a pillow in his arms to take her position.
Did she go to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for him?
At the thought, Aaron"s handsome face unconsciously breaks into a smile.
What a considerate girl!
She can always inadvertently touch the softest part in his heart that he can"t help but like her even more.
Unhurried, Aaron flips the blanket off and goes to the bathroom to wash his face.
Even though his hair is a little messy from having just gotten up, it still doesn"t affect his good looks and charm.
After was.h.i.+ng his face, Aaron changes his clothes and walks out of the room wearing the same tie Katrina chose for him.
There are countless neckties in his wardrobe, all of which are expensive and luxurious, but he prefers this the most.
As soon as Aaron goes downstairs, Randy immediately comes up to him. "Breakfast is ready, Mr. Wilson."
Aaron casually nods as he walks towards the dining room, smiling unconsciously.
The thought that Katrina prepared breakfast by herself puts him in a good mood, and he can"t be happier.
But when he goes to sit down at the table, he doesn"t see Katrina.
Aaron picks up the silver spoon and scoops out a spoonful of porridge. He asks, "Where is she?"
Randy is stunned and doesn"t respond for a moment. He asks doubtfully, "Who?"
Aaron becomes skeptical due to Randy"s reaction.
Who else but Katrina?
Aaron takes a bite of porridge and gracefully wipes his mouth with a tissue. "Katrina."
At his response, Randy is obviously taken aback. He hesitantly says, "Isn"t Miss Miller in the room?"
In fact, he wants to ask Mr. Wilson why Miss Miller didn"t come out for breakfast.
Why is Aaron asking him for Katrina"s whereabouts?
Randy"s reply makes Aaron"s hand paused with his spoon mid-air. The smile on his relaxed face suddenly disappears. His facial muscles become tense. "You mean she hasn"t come out?"
Unexpectedly, Aaron suddenly becomes serious. Randy stands aside and answers respectfully, "Yes… I got up at six. I was in the living room the whole time. I didn"t see Miss Miller."
"Then who made breakfast?"
Randy pauses before he responds, "Chef Tom in the kitchen."
By now, Aaron"s face is fierce.
Katrina is not in the room, in the kitchen, or outside. Where has she gone?
Aaron is no longer in the mood for breakfast. He slams the spoon on the table in anger. "Find her! Where on earth has she gone to?"
Randy nods hurriedly, "Yes, sir. I will."
When he woke up, he didn"t see Katrina. Aaron inevitably feels a sense of worry and loss.
He hopes that it"s all a misunderstanding, like a day she went out to surprise him.
But after searching for the whole villa, he still doesn"t find her.
The bedroom, cloakroom, study, balcony, garden…
She"s in none of these places.
Is she playing hide-and-seek with him?
Where on earth did she go, and why did she disappear quietly?
At this point, Aaron goes to his study to check the surveillance videos in the villa to find out where Katrina has gone.
He doesn"t believe that she can really disappear overnight.
Just then, Randy knocks on the door and walks in.
Seeing Aaron"s expressionless face, Randy"s voice drops a little as he speaks.
"Mr. Wilson, according to the men on duty at the gate... At three o"clock this morning, someone drove your car out of the villa. At that time, the man on duty thought you had something urgent to attend to, so he let it go. If I"m not mistaken, the person who drove out is Miss Miller."
Randy doesn"t expect that Katrina, who usually looks weak, docile, and affectionate to Aaron, will suddenly drive away at night.
Her actions definitely tell everyone that she can"t wait to get out of this place and run away.
And this time, as she wished, she was finally able to leave. This time, no one noticed that she was the one driving the car.
At the news, Aaron"s expressionless face is suddenly filled with anger. Even the hand holding the computer mouse tightens, on the verge of crus.h.i.+ng it.
He watches the whole process of Katrina"s departure from the surveillance footage installed in the villa. She"s the only one who easily took away his car key.
His heelers never dare ask the reason for his car going in and out. They will obediently let him go at all times.
Katrina took advantage of this loophole so that she could escape easily.
