Chapter 1365
Always Been Yours
Sabrina chuckled, but when she recalled the matter Timothy brought up over breakfast, she withdrew her smile. âI know itâs great that two of our companies will be working together, but I hope youâre not trying to help Gulliver Group for my sake. You really donât have to do this.â
Sabrina chuckled, but when she recalled the matter Timothy brought up over breakfast, she withdrew her smile. âI know itâs great that two of our companies will be working together, but I hope youâre not trying to help Gulliver Group for my sake. You really donât have to do this.â
Meanwhile, at Reinhart Group, the secretary entered the office that afternoon with a file. âMr. Reinhart, hereâs the business proposal sent to us from Gulliver Group.â
âGot it. Just leave it on the table,â Timothy uttered without raising his head.
Hence, the secretary left after placing the document on the table. Shortly after she left, he finished up his remaining tasks and began reading the proposal that had been sitting on the table. He couldnât deny that the proposal was well written as it was detailed and meticulous.
At that moment, Sabrina entered the room in a hurry. âTim, Mr., and Mrs. Tompkins are here.â
âWhy are they here?â Timothy looked at her with puzzlement.
She answered truthfully, âThey said Mr. Henry hasnât been home for two days, and his phone has been unreachable. They thought something might have happened to him, so they came here to check.â
When he heard that, he couldnât help feeling ominous. âDid you try looking for him?â
âYes, but heâs not in the office. Could something have happened to him?â Sabrina looked at him with concern.
Sabrina chuckled, but when she recalled the matter Timothy brought up over breakfast, she withdrew her smile. âI know itâs great that two of our companies will be working together, but I hope youâre not trying to help Gulliver Group for my sake. You really donât have to do this.â
He understood the meaning behind her words and felt worried too. âCall the police immediately and report him missing because he has been missing for two days.â
Before she could do that, however, his phone on the table rang. It was a call from Harper. âIs something the matter?â
âMr. Reinhart, itâs been three days. Have you decided whether to collaborate or sell the core technology to me?â Harperâs nonchalant voice sounded over the phone.
âDonât even dream about it, Mr. Quinn,â Timothy retorted coldly.
âIs that so? What a pity.â Harper sighed and abruptly changed the subject with a chuckle. âBy the way, I met your partner and best friend in a club two nights ago. Is he okay? I remember he got so drunk that he struggled to walk properly.â
As soon as he said that, Timothyâs expression sank. âWere you the one who kidnapped him?â he questioned through gritted teeth as he exuded a murderous aura.
Then, Harper let out another chuckle. âWhat are you talking about? Why should I kidnap your partner? Anyway, if youâre not interested in the collaboration, I wonât bother you with work anymore.â With that, he hung up the call.
Timothy clenched his phone hard with a look of dismay. Although Harper didnât admit it, Timothyâs intuition told him Henryâs disappearance was related to Harper. However, he had no evidence to support his claim.
Noticing the look of displeasure on his face, Sabrina asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
âHenry may have been kidnapped by Harper.â He didnât intend to keep anything from her, so he told her everything that was said during the phone call earlier.
She was enraged upon hearing that. âHow could he be so despicable and shameless? What should we do now?â
âLetâs meet Mr. and Mrs. Tompkins for now.â While saying that, Timothy headed to the guest lounge.
On the other hand, Mr. and Mrs. Tompkins were sitting restlessly on the couch. When they saw Timothy, they hurriedly got up and asked him, âTim, do you know where Henry could have gone?â
âHe is fine. Donât worry. I promise to bring him back to you later,â he reassured them.
However, the two elders were still uneasy. âWhere on earth did he go? Why didnât he pick up our call?â
âHis phone ran out of battery, but heâs currently at a friendâs house. I have confirmed with the friend and will head over to pick him up shortly.â Timothy dared not tell them the truth as he was worried they might be unable to take it. Thus, he tried to persuade them to go back home.
After sending Henryâs parents off, he and Sabrina returned to the office again.
âAre you planning to meet Harper?â she asked him as soon as they entered the office.
