- Frank Harper Is Missing
“Why not? He landed on his face. Tsk, I hope he can be recognized when his body is found.”
“No…!” Kara screamed, shedding tears. “You liar! There’s no way Frank is dead. He’s a strong man! He can definitely survive!”
With nervous furrowed brows, Kara grabbed the nearest rescue team member. “Sir, please… search again. He must still be around here.”
“Okay, Miss. Calm down. We will continue to search. We have also contacted the coast. Several helicopters have been sent here.”
Suddenly, the fierce man laughed again. “That’s useless. He won’t survive. I saw it with my own eyes. His body was swallowed by the ocean. Your lover is gone.”
“Impossible! Frank will definitely be back. He promised… he promised ..” Kara sobbed even more. Her chest grew tighter. Before she could finish the sentence, her body went limp and fell backwards.
“Miss Martin…!”
While Sophia screamed, Finnic swiftly caught her. Without the slightest hesitation, he carried Kara to the medical room. People who watched competed to express their pity.
“It’s really unfortunate. She just accepted a proposal, but her lover is now lost at sea.”
“Will there be a miracle that can save Frank Harper? He is still young and has a brilliant career. It would be a shame if he was just a name in history.”
In just a few minutes, the news spread on social media and even TV broadcasts. Frank Harper’s disappearance shocked the world. Savior

partners were anxious because there were still projects that had not been completed; and Sean was confused about how to convey the
news to Rowan.
Seeing the assistant’s unusual movements, the old man raised an eyebrow. “What’s wrong, Sean? Has there been a report from your friend? He just got out of the cell. His hands must be itchy since he hasn’t shed blood for a long time. So, that woman is dead, right?”
Rowan asked in a relaxed tone.
Sean took a faint breath. “Sorry, Sir. There’s a mistake.”
The old man’s expression instantly darkened. “What do you mean?
She is still alive?”
The stiffness in Sean’s neck grew worse. “It seems… Young Master was trying to protect her when the attack occurred. They both … fell overboard.”
Rowan hit the table. He no longer sat in his chair. “They both? Who? Speak clearly!” His eyes began to streak red and shake violently.
Sean clenched his jaw. “Young Master and-”
“What?” Rowan’s screech echoed. In an instant, all his nerves tensed
and his breath became shallow. Even so, he still tried to talk. “Where
is he? Where is my grandson now?”
“He hasn’t been found yet, Sir. Rescue teams are still searching.”
The old man suddenly frowned. His hand was pressed over his cramped heart. His oxygen levels dropped drastically. Within moments, he was no longer able to stand.
“Sir….” Sean swiftly prevented Rowan’s head from hitting the chair or table. Like it or not, he executed emergency procedures.
Meanwhile, in another place, Emily’s cries broke everyone’s hearts.

with one hand, even though he knew it was useless. “Jeremy, has there been any news from there?”
The assistant shook his head languidly. “Not yet, Young Master.”
Louis’ cheeks puffed up. His brows furrowed. “Then, let’s catch up! We have to accompany Mommy. Mommy must be scared.”
Jeremy didn’t answer. He was pensive, considering the suggestion offered by the toddler.
“Louis,” Susan interrupted as she continued to caress the little girl in her arms, “wouldn’t it be better if you two just waited here? It’s already late at night.”
“We can’t wait, Grandma. Mommy was alone there. Emily and I have to accompany her. Besides, if we were there, Frank might sense us. He could be more eager to survive.”
“Grandma….” Emily sobbed as she wiped her red cheeks. “I want to go there. I want to meet Daddy. I want to apologize for being naughty kid lately. If Daddy comes back, I promise I won’t s I won’t be whiny anymore.”
Susan exchanged glances with Jeremy. They were both confuse about Louis and Emily. After one breath, she looked back at the tw “But the ship was far out at sea. Even if you catch up, what time you arrive there?”
“We can take a helicopter!” Louis suggested with round eyes. “Isn’t that faster than a ship?”
“Louis….”
“Jeremy,” the toddler interjected, turning to his father’s assistant. ”

But look at Emily! Her tears can’t stop. Aren’t you afraid Frank Harper will scold you if he comes back? You’ve broken your promise.”
Jeremy looked at the twins with a confused look. At that moment, Emily got off Susan’s lap and tugged at Jeremy’s pants.
“Mr. Driver, please bring us there. I want to meet Mommy and Daddy.
Please ….”
The man looked up. Emily’s pitiful expression was too hard to look at. After a short contemplation, he finally sighed. “Okay. I’ll contact the base. Let’s get ready.”
While the twins go to see her, Kara was still trapped in the darkness. Tears fell from her eyes, even in her sleep. Witnessing it, Finnic’s breath hitched again.
“He must really love Frank,” Sophia sighed with a faint smile. The, she looked at Finnic. “You know what? If we were in their position, I would
do the same as Kara, or maybe worse. I can’t imagine the person I love most adrift in the ocean.”
Hearing this confession, Finnic got tensed. Before he could reply, Sophia whispered again, “Do you think we can have a wedding tomorrow? It feels unethical if we are happy while our guests suffer.”
“What do you mean? You intend to….” Finnic didn’t dare convey his
assumption.
“We have to be responsible, Fin. Our guest fell into the sea because the ship’s security was not strict enough. How could such a criminal get into this ship? He even dared to act openly.”
Finnic knitted his eyebrows, thinking. Previously, he told Kara that he didn’t mind if the wedding was cancelled. However, hearing that Sophia wanted to postpone it, why did he hesitate and feel so guilty?

“Are you sure? This is your dream wedding.”
“But the situation is not favorable. Somehow, I feel like this is payback for all the trouble you gave Kara. So, how about we make up for it first? Let’s put our happy moments on hold, at least until Frank
is found.”
“Has Frank been found?”
Finnic and Sophia spontaneously turned around. Kara had been awake.
“Miss Martin, how are you feeling?”
“Has Frank been found? Is he safe?” Kara got up from her makeshift
bed.
Sophia and Finnic exchanged glances again. After a moment of silence, the woman shook her head. “Sorry, Miss Martin. Rescue teams are still searching.”
Kara’s eyes watered again. However, before she could cry, her phone rang. Sophia rushed to grab a clutch bag on the table and handed it to
Kara.
“Your phone has been ringing since earlier. We are reluctant to ch
it.”
Helplessly, Kara opened her bag, afraid that it was the twins. However, when she saw the caller’s name, she flinched.
