Bumpkin's Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 974

Chapter 974 Miss Murphy’s Missing

"Before Nelson left, he asked Roni to save Lionel." Matthew smiled helplessly. "I bet this isn't a hard request for you. Is it, Your Highness?"

Eleanor scoffed and rolled her eyes. "We've just got a deal, and you're trying to get ahead of yourself. I expect nothing less from a businessman. You're a sly fox."

"Thank you so much, Your Highness." He showed his deepest gratitude.

As soon as he finished his words, the phone in his pocket rang. He fished it out and glanced at the dialer's name, Dean Gesner. "Please give me a moment." He turned sideways to answer the call. "Dean."

"Boss, Miss Murphy is missing." Dean's voice was trembling.

"What?!" The ever-calm man lost his cool as he jumped from his seat. Frantic was written all over his face. Meanwhile, Eleanor, reclining in the rattan chair, straightened her back upon his anxious reaction. Frowning, she observed his expression with a hanging heart.

"Call everyone to look for her. Be quick. I'll be there soon." He terminated the call and faced her. "Sorry, but I gotta go. Roni's missing. "

"Veronica's missing? I'm coming with you!" She stood up, wanting to tag along.

"No." He stopped her. "We've just got a deal. If we get too close, people will get suspicious. It won't do any good to our plan."

"But…" She gave it a thought, figuring that he had a point. "Just tell me once you get her."
