Chapter 9
At this thought, a flash of coldness appeared in his eyes. He believed she was definitely playing hard to get.
Realizing this, he quickly pulled himself together, turned his attention back to the bride in front of him, and solemnly said each word clearly.
“Emily, whether poor or rich, whether in health or sickness, I am willing to marry you as my wife and will never leave you.”
His heartfelt confession made Emily’s eyes suddenly well up with tears. She responded to him with deep affection and kissed him passionately.
The wedding went exceptionally smoothly.
None of the things Daniel had worried about happened. The expected wedding–crashing event didn’t occur, and his bride seemed to be doing perfectly well without any discomfort.
Even his friends praised him, saying he seemed more careful and serious about the wedding than he ever had been.
But only Daniel knew that, in truth, he hadn’t been serious about this wedding at all.
A figure kept appearing in his mind, disturbing his thoughts.
While Emily went to her room to rest, Daniel had the butler bring him his phone.
When he saw the bright red exclamation mark in the chat box, Daniel’s body stiffened in place.
Over the years, no matter how much Sarah had caused trouble, she had never blocked him.
Daniel rubbed his forehead, then casually dialed the number.
As soon as the call connected, Daniel had already prepared his words. “Sarah, you…”
“We’re sorry, the number you have dialed is currently unavailable. Please try again later…”
“Bang!”
Daniel slammed the phone down on the table in frustration.
But after all, she was Sarah’s father’s entrusted responsibility. If something really happened to her, he wouldn’t be able to explain it to Sarah’s father.
Thinking of this, Daniel dialed another number.
“Find out which city Sarah went to. Once you know, go directly to take care of her.”
That night, after Daniel had finally gotten Emily to sleep, there was a knock on the door.
After confirming that the person in his arms hadn’t been disturbed, Daniel quietly got out of bed.

But just as he was closing the door, Emily suddenly opened her eyes.
In the study, just a wall away, Daniel’s face suddenly darkened.
“Say it again where did she go?”
The assistant in front of him swallowed nervously. “We checked all travel records from New York, but we couldn’t find any trace of Ms. Miller.”
“Moreover, all of her domestic documents have been canceled…”
“We suspect that Ms. Miller has gone abroad… but as to where, we are unsure…”
“Sir, should we inform Mr. Miller? After all, she’s his daughter…”
Daniel was stunned by the assistant’s words, unable to say anything, as a wave of anger surged from his heart to his entire body.
He thought Sarah’s courage only extended to blocking him, but now she was secretly leaving the country behind his back!
How dare she!
“Sarah…”
“Sir…”
Seeing Daniel remain silent, the assistant hesitantly called out to him again.
Daniel took a deep breath, forcing his anger down.
“Not for now. Keep searching.”
He refused to believe that Sarah would never return!
