Chapter 982 Xavier’s Fury

"I'll check it out."

As soon as Matthew said that, he strode into the building.

Xavier followed him into the building as well, but there was no one inside.

The two men glanced at each other before heading straight back to Noah.

"What? Miss Murphy isn't there?" Noah asked in shock with a frown on his face.

Matthew glanced around. "I'll look in the other buildings."

There was no way he would return empty-handed.

"As we have done what His Highness ordered us to do, we will be leaving now." Noah did not plan to

continue the search with them.

"Very well. Thank His Highness for me," Matthew said with a slight nod.

Before leaving with his companion, Noah gave Matthew and Xavier each a flashlight.

The remaining two men then continued searching through the entire underground chamber.

They were discovered in their search, so they had to knock out about five or six men. They soon

finished the search and found no signs of Veronica.

In the end, they had to leave the mountain empty-handed.

Thereafter, they got into their car and drove back to the city.

No one said a single word throughout the journey. Finally, Xavier could hold back no longer and angrily

barked out, "Have you ever wondered if this is just a trap? If Dominik was just toying with you?"

"He was not lying," Matthew replied.

His brows were locked in a frown as he continued to stare at the road ahead. "From what the patrolling

men said in the underground chamber, we can confirm that the place was one of Crayson's secret

bases. However, he must have placed Veronica elsewhere after realizing Tiffany had been taken

away."

"Where shall we go to find Roni now?"

"I don't know."

Matthew was now lost. He did not know where to go.

He was even ready for the worst-case scenario where Veronica's memories had been sealed off.

When they rushed back to One Piece Restaurant, Hendrey was there. He joined in their search for

Veronica when he found out she was missing.

They were not the only ones looking for her either. Eleanor had also sent her men to look for Veronica

when she heard Veronica was missing.

It seemed like they had searched through every inch of the surrounding lands, yet Veronica was

nowhere to be found.

Matthew captured Mateo and tortured him for information, but even on the brink of death, Hayley

denied having ever seen Waylen. She kept claiming that she did not know Veronica had been

kidnapped.

Matthew was not planning to kill Mateo since he knew Mateo was innocent. In the end, he had no

choice but to send Mateo to a hospital.

Few people slept that night.

It had been over 20 hours since Veronica's disappearance. Alas, Matthew had given up the search.

That was because he knew that after 20 hours, Waylen would have succeeded in his quest to seal off

her memories.

Since her life was not at risk, he did not need to put in too much effort to look for her.

"We're stopping the search?"

Xavier kicked the table in anger. "We had only been searching for one day and one night, yet you are

going to give up now?"

Bang! Crash!

The table crashed on its side, sending the teapot and cups smashing against the ground with shards

flying everywhere.

He shot to his feet and grabbed Matthew by the shirt collar. "Is this what your care for Roni looks like?"

Matthew was calm, however, as he blandly stated, "It has been over 20 hours. The memory seal would

have succeeded. He will not hurt her, so what we need to do now is to wait."

Eleanor, who had been sitting to the side nodded. "Master Iron is correct. Since Veronica is not in any

danger, she will reappear. In that case, it is a complete waste of time and energy to send more men out

to search for her."

Hendrey nodded. "They're right."

Xavier gritted his teeth and seethed. In the end, he pushed Matthew away and stomped out of the

restaurant.

Hendrey got to his feet as well and said to Matthew, "Please let me know when she comes back."

Following that, he left the restaurant.
