Chapter 1221 Search For Beryl (1/2)
”Today?”
Emily was about to answer, but suddenly, she bolted upright in wide-eyed confusion and said, ”Where is Beryl?”
The assistant, somewhat startled, looked at Emily blankly and shrugged her shoulders.
”Director Emily, I don't know! Was she here? I went to each of the departments this afternoon to get the forms for the meeting. I didn't even know she was here.”
When Emily stood up abruptly, blood rushed around her brain and made her eyes go dim for a moment. Dizzied, she clutched her head and fell back onto the sofa again.
The assistant quickly rushed to hold Emily, afraid that something had happened.
”I am fine. Please, give me a moment. Could you go to the lounge and check if Beryl is there?”
The assistant nodded and then trotted into the lounge.
Emily was starting to feel a little worried, but Beryl was a very obedient girl for her age. The thought of something bad happening to such a sweet little girl...
Emily didn't dare to continue that thought, but a burst of anxiety had already surged up in her heart.
The assistant had been gone for a short while, but unfortunately, to Emily, it felt like she had been gone for hours.
When the assistant came back, Emily looked behind the assistant and her lips formed a frown almost instantly.
”Director Emily, I've just checked the lounge. As far as I know, someone was resting on the bed earlier, but Beryl isn't there.”
Emily's heart skipped a beat. If Beryl wasn't in the lounge, where could she be?
”Please, go and check the surveillance videos to see where Beryl has been,” Emily insisted with immediate urgency.
”Director Emily, please don't worry. As long as Beryl is in the building, she will be fine. You can rest assured!”
Emily took a deep breath and looked at the assistant in front of her, rubbing her forehead. 'Perhaps Beryl is just playing somewhere in the building. She should be fine, ' she told herself.
”Check the surveillance videos first and bring Beryl back. Then you can get off work!”
