Chapter 269: Chapter 270: Find Her

Seeing the crowd, he immediately began to ask.

"Have you seen Gan?"

"No!" Nancy replied irritably.

As Moses reached the doorway, he suddenly halted his steps. "Gan?"

"Yes, it’s Gan..." Abel turned his face, "She’s a very pretty girl with black hair and eyes like the night, wearing a black dress, someone unforgettable at first sight... have you seen her?"

Hair and eyes like the night?

Moses’s pupils narrowed. "What’s her full name?"

"Gan... Gan Ruan?" Abel shrugged helplessly, "God, her name is so unique."

"You mean Gan Yuan, right?" Qian Xueying asked.

"Exactly, that’s the name." Abel immediately showed a look of delight. "It’s your friend..."

Before he could finish, his collar was tightly grasped by a hand.

"Where is she?!"

Moses asked with a furrowed brow, his voice deep.

"Cough!" Abel coughed, grabbing his arm. "Bastard, what are you doing... let... let go of me..."

"I’m asking you, where is she!"

The fingers tightened, and a chill crept into Moses’s tone.

"Mr. Moses!" Duke Locke hurriedly supported his arm, "This is Mr. Abel Rost, the eldest grandson of Duke Rost."

That statement, of course, was not an introduction, but a reminder for Moses not to act impulsively.

Unmoved, Moses continued to stare into Abel’s eyes with his inky-black orbs.

"Is she here, at the banquet?"

"Yes... yes!"

Under the other’s oppressive presence, Abel instinctively gave the answer.

Moses slowly released his fingers. "Where is she now?"

"Didn’t you hear? I’m looking for her too," Abel adjusted his askew tie irritably before sharply reminding, "I’m telling you, she’s mine, and you better not set your sights on her."

Moses’s eyes narrowed dangerously as he stepped forward, towering over Abel with a dismissive gaze.

"Stay away from her."

As the eldest grandson of Duke Rost and a true playboy, Abel had always played the role of the arrogant one. He would not tolerate such disrespect from Moses.

He frowned, ready to lash out.

"You..."

"Abel!" Qian Xueying said cheerfully as she came over and supported Abel, who wanted to burst out, "Mr. Moses was just joking. Let’s go outside to look for her. I think, she must be in the yard."

"Nancy, Xueying, take Abel out and look for her," ordered Duke Locke.

The two stepped forward, taking hold of Abel’s arms, and Abel followed them toward the exit, not forgetting to throw a glare back at Moses.

"Don’t you dare go after Gan!"

Watching the three of them walk away, Duke Locke finally spoke up, "Mr. Moses, I hope you can control your emotions."

There was a hint of displeasure in his voice. Although Abel was a playboy, his status was prominent. If Moses truly did him harm, as the host, Duke Locke would certainly have difficulty dealing with it.

Moses glanced sideways, his gaze sweeping past Duke Locke’s face.

"If I hadn’t controlled myself, he would be dead by now!"

Duke Locke was silent for a moment. "There’s one more thing I think I need to remind you of, Gan Yuan belongs to the crown prince."

"I know."

Moses dropped three words, then strode down the steps.

The bodyguard saw him and immediately came to meet him.

"Sir."

"She’s here, find her!"

"Who?"

The bodyguard asked.
