Mr. Tycoon's Beloved Wife: The Madam No One Dares to Offend-Chapter 263: I Am Going To Look For Him

Hilla forced her to wait patiently.

Perhaps Bruce was still busy finishing his work in order to chat with her for a longer time later. He may reply to her soon.

She couldn’t be angry and anxious.

Bruce had never broken his promise, and she believed that he would not do it this time.

It was just nine o’clock and still early.

The affairs in South Country seemed to be complicated. Every time Hilla mentioned it, Orlenna would try to hide something. She could sense that something was wrong.

And now the Internet was developed, so she could browse foreign news on the Internet. A business tycoon like Bruce, if there was any special news, should be reported.

Hilla was not in great worry this time. She slowly went through the news in South Country or some entertainment news.

After a while, she thought of the drama that she had filmed.

Although her parts had all been cut off in the end, the result of it was good. Carlie, the heroine, attracted a lot of people and attention. So there was a heated discussion about the drama.

The crew also invited another famous actor as the hero.

But it was a little pity. Such a good drama should have been displayed on the TV. In the end, because of her, an unremarkable supporting role, it could only be broadcasted online.

However, Hilla heaved a sigh of relief. When she thought that she appeared on TV playing a role of a prostitute, she couldn’t help but shiver.

Especially if her babies saw that, Hilla didn’t know how to explain it then.

She owed the crew. When Bruce returned, she could ask him to help her compensate.

It was eleven o’clock. The fireworks outside started and scattered. Hilla wasn’t in the mood to enjoy it. She always thought that the one she saw with Bruce was the most beautiful.

There was only an hour left before New Year’s Day, and Bruce still did not reply to her.

Looking at the silent dialog box, Hilla realized that Bruce had not replied to her for two days.

Back then, she only remembered the New Year’s Day appointment. She thought that Bruce might be busy with the company’s affairs to spare some time on New Year’s

Day. He won’t break his promise.

As time passed by, Hilla gradually lost her confidence.

Less than an hour was left. The fireworks outside were getting fewer and fewer. It indicated that New Year’s Day was about to pass.

Bruce had made an appointment on New Year’s Day, not on the Spring Festival. He should be by her side for the next festival.

Hilla pressed hard on the dark screen with her fingers, and her fingerprints blurred the entire screen.

"Baby, Daddy will keep his promise, right?

"He is a man of his word. He never broke his promise.

"He said he was going to spend New Year’s Day with us. He must be too busy now. Shall we wait for him together?"

It was only half an hour to zero o’clock. Hilla became nervous and scared. But she hoped that Bruce would give her a surprise like Christmas.

Even if he sent her messages or videos in the last second of New Year’s Day, she would forgive him.

The last second was her last hope.

Her eyes were fixed on the number. Every time the number changed, she frowned slightly.

On one hand, she hoped that the time would pass faster and that it would be time for Bruce to reply to her.

On the other hand, she hoped that the time would pass slowly, so Bruce would not miss the moment on New Year’s Day.

The time tortured for Hilla.

Finally, it came to 00:00. Looking at her bulging belly, Hilla pursed her lips with a smile and whispered, "Happy New Year, my babies. Good night."

Lying in the soft quilt, she had to admit that Bruce had missed his appointment.

...

The next morning, just as Orlenna went downstairs, she heard a loud shout.

Someone in red pounced and crashed into her arms. Her blood pressure seemed to rise for a moment because of the crashing.

"Mom, your dear baby is back. Do you miss me? I miss you so much."

Margaret’s voice was filled with joy, making the quiet Anderson’s vital.

Orlenna was still dazzling. She frowned and looked down at Margaret in her arms.

Taking a deep breath, Orlenna suppressed her anger, "How did you get back?" "Didn’t you say that I could go home after New Year’s Day? I drove back last night! "The car belongs to Julian. Ask William to give it back. Anyway, we don’t lack cars."

After Margaret finished speaking, she carried her luggage upstairs but was pulled back by Orlenna.

"What are you going to do?"

"Back to my room!"

Margaret said with a matter-of-fact expression. Of course, she had to return to her room.

Could it be that her room had been modified?

She hadn’t married yet, why Orlenna was in such a hurry to drive her out? Besides, even if she got married, she could also go back to the Anderson’s. There are so many rooms and she should have one! 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

"Don’t make noise early in the morning. Hilla is still resting.

"If you wake her up, no pocket money this month."

Margaret complained silently, ’Why do you step on my Achilles heel?’

"I understand. I’ll go back when Hilla wakes up. Is that okay?"

Margaret obediently pulled the luggage back and sat down on the sofa in the living room.

"Mom, how long has Bruce been in South Country? When is he going to come back? Is he coming back?"

"Don’t jinx it!"

Orlenna cast a glance at her, and then said with a serious expression, "Bruce is missing."

...

As soon as Orlenna finished speaking, two terrified voices rang out at the same time.

"Missing?"

"Missing?"

Orlenna and Margaret were stunned and looked up.

Hilla was standing on the stairs on the second floor. When she heard Orlenna’s words, her face turned pale.

Orlenna regretted it. She quickly stepped forward and held Hilla, afraid that Hilla would fall.

Hilla gripped the handle of the stairs with both hands to keep stable.

She quickly calmed herself down and looked at Orlenna, "Mother, is he really missing?"

She didn’t believe it. Before Orlenna could answer, she thought of something and went upstairs in a hurry.

Bruce had been sending messages to her two days ago. He hadn’t replied to her for only two days.

"Hilla, be careful. Bruce will be fine."

Orlenna was so scared to see Hilla walk hurriedly upstairs. Her back even was covered with cold sweat.

The Anderson family couldn’t get rid of the business in South Country. Otherwise, she wouldn’t let Bruce go so far away.

When he set off, she began to be worried.

Bruce had been missing for two or three days. But she didn’t mention anything in front of Hilla. Hilla was pregnant and couldn’t accept it.

Orlenna thought, there was still a month before Bruce returned and they would eventually find him within a month.

But she didn’t keep it secret to Hilla.

Orlenna just wanted to tell Margaret and asked her to stay at home and accompany Hilla obediently for the next few days.

She didn’t expect Hilla to wake up at this time and hear her words.

Now she was worried about her son, her grandsons, and Hilla at the same time.

She was having the heart in her mouth. She tried to catch up to Hilla quickly.

Hilla returned to her bedroom and took out her phone.

This time, she called Bruce directly instead of sending messages or video calls.

She kept dialing his number over and over again.

She would do it until Bruce answered, but she could only hear the notification sound "The number you dialed cannot be connected for the moment".

"Why!" Hilla almost turned crazy.

Orlenna quickly grabbed Hilla’s wrist and said in distress, "Hilla, don’t be like this. Bruce will be fine. I’ve sent all the employees there to look for him. I believe he will be back soon."

"If nothing happened, why can’t I connect his phone?"

Hilla did not convince by Orlenna’s explanation. She was really stupid. She should have sensed that something was wrong. Last night, Bruce did not call her as planned. Since two days ago, Bruce did not reply to her.

South Country was not a peaceful place, and there would often be riots. She had insisted on watching the news a few days ago, but why was she careless these two days?

She had thought that they would meet on New Year’s Day. But such an accident happened.

Last night, she was only concerned about her sadness, but never thought that Bruce had gone missing. He had no way to reply to her.

"Mother, aren’t there a lot of people from the Anderson family in South Country? We are very rich. Can we take out all the money to search for Bruce?"

Hilla didn’t want to be a young mistress or a noble lady of a wealthy family.

She did not care about valuable jewelry or riches and glory.

Even if the Anderson family went bankrupt, so what?

The Holt family had ever fallen. She was willing to be a sorehead ordinary person.

She could give up enjoying the gorgeous clothes and service of servants. She only hoped that Bruce would return safely.

"Hilla, don’t worry. I have informed our people over there. They have all gone to find him.

"Bruce went missing in the rain forest. The signal there isn’t good. Don’t worry, we will find him."

"That’s right. Hilla, you are pregnant now. Don’t be too sad." Margaret added.

If the children bore the bad impact and Bruce didn’t come back, wouldn’t the Anderson family have no successors?

Margaret did not dare to say such words. Otherwise, Orlenna would kill her on the spot.

"No! I want to go to South Country to find him!"

Hilla’s words startled Orlenna for a moment, but she quickly reacted and held Hilla in her arms.

"You are pregnant. How can you go to that place?"

"Mother, Bruce is gone missing. He is your son. Aren’t you worried? Even if I die, I will die with him."

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Orlenna became anxious. For the first time, she said to Hilla with a serious tone, "Bruce is just missing, not dead. You are his wife, and now you are pregnant. If you go to South Country because of baseless news and hurt yourself and the children in your belly, won’t Bruce blame you?

"It is hard to have the two children. Bruce is so happy when he knew you are pregnant.

"He said that he would come back in a month. Don’t you believe your husband’s words?"

Hilla went blank when she looked at the serious Orlenna.

Of course, she believed him. But Bruce had broken his promise last night.

She did not blame him now. She just wanted to find him back.

Looking at Orlenna, Hilla’s eyes gradually became wet.

She told herself to be strong, but her tears flowed down.

"Mother, I am scared. I miss him!"

Hilla’s voice was choked and sounded in the entire villa. It hit Orlenna in the heart.

Orlenna knew the news the earliest and pretended not to know.

The psychological pressure had made her exhausted.

Every day, Orlenna had to smile and prevent Hilla from seeing any clues. Her heart was about to be in a mess.

Looking that Hilla was in great sadness, Orlenna took a deep breath and comforted her with red eyes, "I know that you are worried and feel bad.

"Let’s wait for him at home together, okay? Bruce said that he will see his children born in person. Have you forgotten?

"He was just temporarily lost contact. When he finds a way to contact us, he will come back quickly. Don’t worry"

Orlenna hugged Hilla and comfort her in a soft voice, "No man in this world will miss the chance to be with his lovely children and beautiful wife. He loves you deeply and will come back safely soon."
