Chapter 1035

"Just a moment, it's been a while since we've had a good chat,’ President Charles was trying to

convince Arabella to stay. It wasn't often he had the chance to catch up with her over a cup of coffee.

Usually, Arabella was too busy with her business to sit down for a chat. It was as rare as a hen's teeth.

"Next time,’ Arabella was worried about keeping her classmates waiting. By now, they should have

finished packing and ready to return to school.

“All right, I know you're busy.” President Charles smiled, not wanting to hold her up. “When you have

time, give your grandpa a call."

Mya's eyes widened again. Arabella had President Charles’ number? And she called him Grandpa?

What was their relationship?

“It sounds like they're close," she thought.

“All right; Arabella smiled and nodded. “I'm leaving now: “Don't get too caught up in random stuff. Take

care of yourself;' President Charles reminded her before she left.

It sounded like caring advice from a family member. As Mya followed Arabella, she couldn't help but

whisper, "Bella, do you know President Charles well? Are you guys close?"

It seemed like President Charles was very fond of Arabella.

"Yes, like family" Arabella admitted.

Mya was surprised, “Then why didn't you choose Summerfield College? Was it just because of

Westerly College's lab equipment?"

"Yes." Arabella looked up. "Where are they?"

Why were they taking so long to pack up? There was no sign of them.

“I'll go find them," Mya offered to help.

After a while, Arabella checked the headcount and noticed that Joyce and Mavis were missing.

She took out her phone and tried calling them, but no one answered.

“Let's all go look for them,’ Mya suggested, leading a few classmates. They searched everywhere

backstage but couldn't find the two girls.

“Where did they go after packing?" Arabella asked.

“They seemed to have gone to the restroom together but they couldn't have fallen into the toilet, could

they?" someone joked.

"I'll go check the restrooms again."

“They must have gotten peckish and went to the food stalls behind Summerfield College: Arabella

nodded and waited.

After a while, Mya returned, holding a keychain.

"This is Joyce's. She always carries it around like a precious treasure. I can't believe it was in the

restroom: "lL also found Mavis’ shoulder bag. She just bought this Louis Vuitton. She wouldn't just

leave it on the restroom floor"

"Do you think they're in danger?"

“What danger could there be in the restroom of Summerfield College?"

Arabella recalled the guys and realized she might have overlooked something. She rushed to the

restroom and pushed the door open. There was no one inside.

The window was wide open. If someone was taken from here, it wasn't impossible.

Apart from the keychain and the LV bag found earlier, there were no other clues.

"I'll try calling them again"

"I'll send them a WhatsApp message."

"Do you think those jerks from Summerfield College took them because we outshone them today?"

"Should we tell the teachers?"
