Chapter 41 Mrs. Lawrence is missing
Sebastian stepped on the gas pedal and hurried to the hospital. The driver was trembling like a sieve. The two well-trained bodyguards kept their heads low, prepared to face Mr. Lawrence's anger.
He got out of the car and kicked the two bodyguards directly, "What are you doing? Two people watching one person and you still lost her?"
"Mr. Lawrence," the bodyguards replied in pain, "it was our negligence. We thought the lady was safe in the hospital, so we didn't follow her in, just guarding the entrance..."
"Useless!"
Sebastian strode forward, quickly heading towards the monitoring room.
Even the hospital director was alarmed and hurriedly arrived. After learning the situation, he was scared to the point of trembling.
Mrs. Lawrence had mysteriously disappeared in the hospital. If anything happened to her, Mr. Lawrence would surely tear down this hospital!!!
Inside the monitoring room.
Sebastian stared intently at the screen, not wanting to miss any details, afraid to overlook anything.
Finally, when he saw Isabella's figure appear in the surveillance footage, he held his breath and clenched his fists.
Isabella pushed open the door and entered the adjacent stairwell. Several tens of seconds later, a tall, black man followed in.
After that, the two of them never came out again.
"Check the surveillance of the other exits, the garage back door, all the doors, retrieve them immediately!" Sebastian gave orders, "Immediately!"
"Yes, Mr. Lawrence."
However, no matter how they reviewed the surveillance, they couldn't find any trace of the two leaving.
They couldn't even see the man's face.
If they were to search for Isabella like this... it would be like finding a needle in a haystack.
Sebastian's face had turned pale: "Find her for me, at any cost, find her at all costs!"
Dig through the earth, search all of New York, he had to find Isabella!
He left the hospital, quickly mobilized his manpower, dispatched them everywhere to search for Isabella, and at the same time, he reported to the police.
"Tell them," Sebastian glanced at Kaine, "whoever finds Isabella will be rewarded."
"Yes, Mr. Lawrence."
At this moment, at the press conference venue.
Joshua sat on the stage, constantly looking at the time and repeatedly sending messages to Sebastian, but he didn't receive any response.
It was almost time for the media to ask questions... Wasn't Sebastian supposed to announce the engagement news here?
Why hasn't anyone shown up? What's going on?
Just as Joshua was about to get up and make a call, someone crouched down and got on the stage, behind him, "Mr. Sinclair, something happened."
"What happened?"
"Mrs. Lawrence is missing and Mr. Lawrence is searching everywhere for her whereabouts. It's certain that she won't be able to make it. The assistant said to look into it and not to neglect the matter.
Joshua frowned, "Missing? How can a living person just disappear... was she kidnapped?"
"I don't have the specific details, just received the news not long ago."
"Alright, I understand."
The director of the public relations department, who was also anxious backstage, was in a tight spot. The emergency public relations plan that was rushed out in the morning was now useless.
This matter concerned Mr. Lawrence and his wife; if it wasn't handled well... he would be directly laid off.
During the media questioning session, Joshua took the microphone and said, "Mr. Lawrence has something to attend to and couldn't make it, so for this questioning session, media friends, feel free to ask me anything and I will answer one by one."
Whispering could be heard among the journalists in the media reporter area.
There were more media this time compared to before because they received wind that Mr. Lawrence would attend this press conference.
Sebastian, the youngest and most affluent asset in New York, as well as the most successful figure in the business world, kept a low profile and didn't accept private interviews. There were very few reports about him.
Finally, it was said that Mr. Lawrence would come this time and even participate in the media questioning session... How did it turn into a huge disappointment?
"President Jiang," a female journalist sitting in the front row asked, "Is Mr. Lawrence unable to make it due to business matters or personal matters?"
Joshua smiled, "May I answer this question on behalf of Mr. Lawrence?"
"Of course, you are the spokesperson for this occasion. I think, since Lawrence Group informed us that Mr. Lawrence would attend this time, his schedule must have been arranged. It couldn't be without reason."
"Yes," Joshua nodded, "you're right. So, our President Lawrence couldn't make it due to personal matters. On behalf of all those who were looking forward to his presence, I apologize."
"May I ask, what personal matters are they? Because since Mr. Lawrence took office, he has always kept his word and never broken any promises."
"Yes, the previous Mr. Lawrence indeed kept his word, but people change," Joshua deliberately teased, "That was the pre-marriage President Lawrence."
The whole audience erupted.
The female journalist was stunned, "Pre-marriage Mr. Lawrence? That means..."
"Because something happened on Mrs. Lawrence's side, President Lawrence hurriedly rushed over. We have prepared some wedding candies for everyone, hope you accept them."
Heavens! The CEO of Lawrence Group is getting married!
Suddenly, chaos broke out in the venue, with countless questions flooding in—
"When did Mr. Lawrence get married? Why wasn't it disclosed even a bit?"
"Windy?"
"May I ask where the wedding is being held? Or did they just get the marriage certificate?"
"Is Mrs. Lawrence a wealthy daughter from a prominent family, or is she an ordinary woman with no reputation?"
"I wonder if Miss Grace knows about this?"
"Mr. Sinclair, did you accidentally reveal the news of Mr. Lawrence's wedding, or was it planned in advance?"
"May I ask if the Lawrence Group will be affected by this, and does Mrs. Lawrence hold a certain percentage of shares in the Lawrence Group..."
The camera flashes kept flickering, and Joshua maintained a dignified smile.
In any case, he had released this wedding news, and as for what would happen next... he would leave it to Sebastian to handle.
