Chapter 554 He’s Disappeared
CEO's Mysterious Fiancee
Royce always had an elegant smile on his face. âWhat a coincidence. My family also has this work.
Perl Ezequiel gave it to me personally.â
Once those words were said, the crowd was all stunned.
Even Leana Barker was a little surprised. Could it be that the highly respected elder that Perl Ezequiel had sent was Royce?
There was going to be a good show.
âIâve known Perl Ezequiel for many years. I can recognize her handwritingâ¦â Royce then looked at Jane. âThe authentic work is with me. The one in your hand must be fake.â
Jane was extremely stunned. There was nothing more embarrassing than being exposed by her principalâ¦
But her work was sold to her mother by Joe Yeager. How could it be fake?
Joe Yeager had accepted 800 thousand dollars from her mother!
Janeâs friends were also stunned. Could it be that Joe Yeager sold fake works to Janeâs mother? She asked for 800 thousand dollars. She was so greedy.
Anyone who made friends with such a bad friend would be unluckyâ¦
âNo, itâs impossibleâ¦â Jane shook her head in disbelief.
There were a few other works of Perl Ezequiel in her family, and two of them were also sold to by Joe Yeagerâ¦
If Joe Yeager really sold them fake works, how much would their family lose?
However, Joe Yeager was her motherâs best friend for many years. What reason did she have to do that??
âI just heard from this student that you bumped into Paige, but you refused to apologize?â
What Royce said put Jane in a dilemma. She said, âItâs not like thatâ¦â
âDonât say that Paige hit you first. There are surveillance cameras everywhere. Do you dare to lie in front of your principal?â
What Leana Barker said made Jane feel even more embarrassed.
âIf you hit someone, you should apologize. What did the University of Chicago usually teach you?â
Royce said in a threatening tone.
Jane had no choice but to whisper, âIâm sorryâ¦â
âI didnât hear you. Say it loudly,â Leana Barker said deliberately, âdidnât you raise your voice when you showed off that you had works of Perl Ezequiel in your house?â
âYouâ¦â Although Jane was angry, she couldnât find a way to refute Leana Barker.
âIf you donât apologize sincerely in front of your principal, why are there students like you at the University of Chicago?â Leana Barker deliberately said.
Jane bit her lower lip and finally came to face Paige. âIâm sorry. I bumped into you just now. Please forgive me.â
Paige looked at her coldly, as if she had no intention of forgiving Jane.
If Royce Jakes hadnât been here today, Jane wouldnât have apologized!
âJane, letâs go.â
âHurry up and call your mother to ask if Joe Yeager sold you fake works. If so, ask your mother to find her.â
âYes, call your mother first. If necessary, find an institution for identificationâ¦â
The girls helped Jane find an excuse to leave.
Jane looked at Royce and said, âWell, Royce, Iâll go firstâ¦â
After that, Jane was held by a few friends and quickly left.
Paige couldnât be bothered to pursue Janeâs mistake.
âA tall tree catches the wind. This principle is undoubtedly reflected in you.â Royce laughed and looked at Paige lovingly. âWhat do you think? Do you have time to come to my place for a cup of coffee?â
âI have to lead the team back.â
Leana Barker listened to their conversation and was stunned. It seemed that Royce and Paige knew each other and had a good relationshipâ¦
âPaige is really amazing. She has so many hidden abilities and seems to know many big shots, but she has never shown them offâ¦â
Unlike Jane, who was ignorant and shallow.
âItâs only been a while. Itâs been a long time since weâve sat down and had a good chat.â Royce was still trying to persuade Paige to stay. It was not easy for him to catch her, so he wanted to have a cup of coffee and chat with her.
Usually, Paige had her own career, so it was extremely difficult for her to find her to have a cup of coffee or talk to herâ¦
âMaybe another day.â Paige was afraid that her classmates had been waiting for too long. They should have almost finished packing by now. It was time to go back to school.
âOkay, I know youâre busyâ¦â Royce laughed again. He didnât want to delay her. âWhen youâre free someday, call meâ¦â
Leana Barker widened her eyes again. Paige had Royceâs phone number.
Most importantly, the relationship between Paige and Royce was close.
What was the relationship between them?
It sounded very intimate.
âAlright.â Paige smiled and said. âSee you.â
âDonât be too busy with too many messy things. Take good care of yourself.â Royce did not forget to remind Paige.
It seemed to be concerned about Paige. Leana Barker caught up with Paige and asked in a low voice, âPaige, do you know Royce? Do you usually have a good relationship with him?â
It seemed that Royce doted on her a lot.
âMn, like family,â Paige admitted.
Leana Barker was a little surprised. âThen why didnât you choose the University of Chicago at first?
Was it because of the experimental equipment of the University of Illinois at Chicago?â
âYes.â Paige raised her eyes again. âWhere are they?â
Why hadnât she seen anyone of them after packing up for so long?
âIâll go and find them.â Leana Barker went to call them again.
After a while, Paige counted the number of people and found that Bess Whitney and Molly Campbell were missing.
Paige took out her mobile phone and called them respectively. Without exception, no one answered.
âLetâs look for them together.â Leana Barker and a few other classmates almost searched backstage, but they still couldnât find them.
âWhere did they go after packing up?â Paige asked in a low voice.
âIt seems that they went to the toilet together⦠Did they drop the toilet?â
âIâll go and see if theyâre there.â
âThey are probably greedy and went to the back street of the University of Chicago to buy something to eatâ¦â
Paige nodded, waiting on the spot.
After a while, Leana Barker ran over quickly with a key pendant in her hand.
âThis belongs to Bess. She usually takes it with her like a treasure. I donât know why it fell into the toilet.â
âI also found Mollyâs Louis Vuitton backpack. She just spent 1,600 dollars on it. Itâs impossible for her to throw it directly on the toilet floor.â
âWill they be in danger?â
âAh? What danger can there be in the toilet of the University of Chicago?â
Thinking of those people from the Ghost Alliance, Paige suddenly realized that she had neglected them. She quickly went to the bathroom and pushed the door open, only to see that there was no one inside.
The window was open. It was not impossible for someone to be taken away from here.
Except for the key pendant and Louis Vuitton bag that they had just found, they did not find any other useful clues here.
âIâll call them again.â
âIâll send them Line messages.â
âCould it be that the bastards of the University of Chicago saw that the University of Illinois at Chicago won today, so they deliberately took them away?â âAh, no way. Should we tell the teacher?â
