"We can’t do anything more about Laura Kiels, but we also can’t dwell in disappointment. So, let’s forget this matter..." she said softly.

"Agreed, sis!" Stefan nodded. "Is there anything else you would like to order me?"

"Yes," Be’s gaze slowly turned sharp again. "Please teach a lesson to all A-Netz, who are still ndering Ster Entertainment. You can do whatever you want with them."

"Got it! I will teach them all!"

Be chuckled at how excited Stefan was now. She could see how sharp Stefan’s gaze was, as if he was ready to vent his frustration on A-Netz.

...

After setting aside Laura Kiels’ case, Be and Stefan continued discussing Donovan Group matters.

Stefan reported to her about thepany’s stock price, which continued to fall further.

The panic selling has now affected all the shareholders, public investors, and major shareholders such as the Donovan siblings. Jacob and his brothers are starting to sell a portion of their shares.

However, Stefan noted that no one wanted to take a risk and buy their shares. It seems many people are still waiting to see the Donovan Group’s situation.

Hearing all this was enough to make Be smile broadly and happily. This is what she needed to hear: her uncles and father live in fear and suffering.

"Sis, should we take action now? The share price of Donovan Group has already fallen forty percent from the initial price," Stefan asked.

"No, of course not. Continue with your next n to scare the investors who own most of the shares of the Donovan Group. I want them to feel the pressure and let them sell their shares below the market price." Be continued, giving a clear exnation of what Stefan should do.

"Understood, sis. I will follow your n and instructions."

"Okay, keep monitoring the Donovan Group. I hope we can take over thepany next week." Be pped her hands, feeling happy.

Be couldn’t hide how happy she was now when she imagined firing her scheming uncle, Jacob Donovan, from his CEO position.

"Sister Be, no worries! I promise you that everything you’ve nned for Donovan Group will prevail," Stefan confidently said.

He would not disappoint his sister, Be, again. This will not be another Laura Kiels fail case.

"I’ll count on you for that, Stefan," Be smiled as she gave him a thumbs-up. She stood and said, "Alright, I will go downstairs now."

Be was about to leave when Stefan stopped her.

"Uh, Sister, one more thing. It’s about your mother. I think you must know something about your mother." Stefan’s hurried and worried tone caused Be to stop abruptly.

"What about my mother? What happened to her?"

Stefan didn’t tell her immediately but asked for her forgiveness for asking her to sit back again. He did it out of fear Be would copse when she heard what he had to say.

After seeing Be sitting securely on the couch, he said, "I found out that your mother has been out of the grid since this morning. Every surveince device I have secretly attached to and around her house has shown she’s undetected."

"What!? Are you saying my mom is missing? She’s missing from your surveince?" Be was shocked to hear that. "How could my mom be missing!? Can you guess what might’ve happened?" She had just intended to call her mother today, and hearing Stefan’s words bewildered her.

Stefan immediately informed her about what he had discovered since he had been monitoring Lucas Donovan’s cell phone throughout the morning; he knew Lucas had been busy sending texts and calling to ask for help locating his wife, Natalie Wright.

Be was starting to get confused.

If her mother was missing, how could an adult woman be missing when she was at home? Did Stefan mean she ran away from home?

But Be doubted it because she knew her mother wouldn’t dare leave her father.

"Wait... Wait... Stefan, so you’re just saying that mother isn’t missing but ran away from home?" she raised her eyebrow, waiting for Stefan to respond.

"Did my exnation imply that? Oops, sorry, sis... yeah, I mean, your mother ran away from her house. That’s what I read from your father’s cell phone. Sorry, I’m not a good talker." Stefan exined with concern.

Stefan knew how terribly Be’s father threatened her mother, and he could guess something terrible had happened, causing her mother to run away from home.

Instantly, Be felt her heart stop beating when she realized something: her father had hurt her mother. She knew her mother was patient with her father’s rudeness and would not run away easily.

’Mom, why are you running away? Did Father really hurt you, and you can’t hold it anymore?’

Countless questions danced in Be’s mind, making her hands tremble slightly as she tried to hold back her worry.

"And several hours have passed. It seems your father hasn’t managed to find your mother..." Stefan continued after seeing Be pensive and silent.

Blinking several times, Be looked at Stefan and said, "Stefan, can you find my mother? Please, please... find her immediately before my father does..."

"I will try to search the CCTV outside your house..." Stefan responded.

"Thanks..." Be knew her father’s nature well. If he found her mother, he might be even angrier and torture her more.

The memories of the past, when her father beat her mother before her eyes, started to engulf Be again, causing her blood to boil.

In the past, she was powerless, but now that she has power, she will prevent her father from harming her and her mother again.

"Stefan, I’m going downstairs to look for Sam. Please let me know if you find anything."

He said nothing but nodded and stood up, heading towards hisputer to try to locate Natalie Wright.

As Be watched Stefan immerse himself in hisputer, she hurriedly left the room to look for Sam.

She needed the Sentinel Network members in East City to look for her mother or stand by and wait for Stefan’s results.

While walking downstairs to her office, Be called Sam and asked him toe to her office immediately.
