Chapter 372: Chapter 373 Miss Gaia

Airport, VIP lounge.

Moses’s assistant walked to the door to look out once more, but still did not see Gan Yuan’s figure, while staff members tiptoed in, stopping beside him.

"Can the departure time be confirmed yet?"

Signaling the person to wait a moment, the assistant walked over to where Moses, who was browsing through documents, stood.

"Sir, should we... give Miss Gan a call?"

"Gaia!"

Moses corrected.

"Sorry, I meant to call Miss Gaia!" the assistant hurriedly corrected his error of address, "The airport needs us to confirm the exact time of our departure."

From nine o’clock until now, it had already been postponed for over two hours, and the staff were inevitably anxious.

"Wait a bit longer."

Moses’s expression remained calm.

The assistant, feeling helpless, had to go back and ask the staff to continue waiting.

As time ticked by second by second, it wasn’t until Moses finished reading the documents in his hand and had drunk the coffee in his cup that over half an hour had passed.

The assistant had already instructed his people to check the entrance countless times, but the response they got was still no sign of her, and out of helplessness, he had to steel himself to return to Moses’s side.

"Miss... hasn’t something delayed her, perhaps?"

Moses set down the empty cup and looked at the time on his wristwatch.

Gaia was not someone who liked being late; this time, it appeared she was exceptionally behind schedule.

He reached out his hand, and the assistant hurriedly handed over the phone, entering her number one digit at a time; he pressed the call button with a probing finger.

After a moment of silence, a mechanical female voice came through the earpiece.

"The number you have dialed is switched off."

Moses’s brows slowly knitted together, his right hand holding the phone drooping down as he dialed another number.

Shortly after, the call connected.

"Hello, Duke Residence."

"I’m looking for Gan Yuan."

On the other end of the line was the voice of a maid.

"I’m sorry, Miss Gan is not here."

"Where did she go?"

"I’m sorry, I’m not quite sure."

"Then when did she leave?"

"Miss has not returned since she went out last night."

The fingers around the phone tightened, and Moses narrowed his dark eyes sharply.

"Find out what’s going on immediately!"

"Yes, sir!"

The assistant acknowledged the order with a word, gestured to his subordinates to come over, gave them a few instructions on the side, and the two of them promptly hurried out of the lounge.

Moses slowly leaned back against the sofa, a surge of anger rising in his eyes.

"Gaia, you had better have a convincing reason!"

...

...

Suburbs.

By the highway, Huangfu Jue spotted the RV parked by the roadside, immediately brought his car to a halt, jumped out, and rushed to the side of the RV to yank open the door.

This vehicle was exactly what Gan Yuan had driven away the previous night, yet now it was obviously empty.

"Damn woman!"

He frowned and slammed the car door shut. From another direction, a fleet of vehicles was rushing over, and as soon as the leading car came to a stop, Huangfu Qi jumped out.

Without asking, just by looking at Huangfu Jue’s face, he could guess that no one was in the car.

With a furrowed brow, Huangfu Jue turned to face him, "Any progress on your side?"

"None at the airport or the bus station," Huangfu Qi raised his hand to lean on the RV beside him, gazing along the highway into the distance, then chuckled lightly, "Her counter-surveillance is impressive. Do you think she anticipated that you would follow her?"

Now he’s still able to laugh about this?!

Huangfu Jue glared at his brother, reasoning that he was Huangfu Qi, if it had been anyone else, they would have been knocked flying by his punch by now.
