100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Chapter 3 The Missing Young Master

[ Country M… ]

In the Branch Office of SYP Twilight Corporation, the atmosphere inside was very jittery, and restless as if an impending disaster was about to transpire in that very place.

The assistant, the nanny, the bodyguards, and the staff who were serving the CEO and were assigned to watch over the little young Master were on tenterhooks, waiting for their Big Boss to speak up.

They stood together in a row, looking down and trembling as if they were about to face an imminent death. No one dared to look at their Big Boss whose expression was as cold as the iceberg in the north pole.

Nathan Sparks, the mighty CEO of the SYP Twilight Corporation, was sitting on his executive chair with a chilly aura emanating around him.

He exuded such tremendous pressure that everyone standing before him felt their bodies covered with cold sweat. They all remained silent on their spot, afraid of making any slightest sound.

"Have you found him?" Nathan asked them, his cold voice broke the deafening silence.

Axel, his right-hand man, stepped into the middle, facing Nathan. "I'm sorry, Boss. But we failed to track the young master's location."

Nathan ground his teeth while clenching his fists. He was worried about the young boy who suddenly had gone missing. What if his enemies kidnapped the kid? He would never forgive himself if something bad happened to him.

Everyone was waiting for Nathan to say another word when the door was pushed open and an old man wearing a white tux emerged from it.

"Hey!! What have you done to my grandson? Little Ethan had gone missing in your own territory?! How would you face his mother's grave? You should mobilize your men and find him as soon as possible!" The old man spoke spontaneously, scolding the mighty CEO in front of his subordinates.

Axel glanced at the old man–the only person who had the guts to talk back against their Big Boss! Everyone was already having a hard time, pacifying their Big Boss. And here comes Old Man Xu, another person whom they couldn't afford to offend. Those words coming from the old man's mouth just added fuel to the fire.

Axel and the other bodyguards already wanted to dig a hole where they could hide before Nathan Sparks and Old Man Xu could carve them alive– one by one… for their negligence and carelessness!

But they were aware that even hiding would not work as Nathan and this old man would not stop hunting them until every person responsible for the disappearance of the little young master would be punished.

Today was supposed to be a happy occasion as Old Man Xu was celebrating his 65th birthday tonight. Who would have thought that this would end up in a great mess as Little Ethan went missing after going to the mall to buy some gifts for his grandfather?

Unable to bear the pressure, Little Ethan's nanny dropped to her knees and begged for forgiveness. "Sir, please forgive me. It's my fault. I know my life is not enough to pay for my mistakes."

The nanny was crying non-stop. Aside from losing her job, she knew that she would be dead if the little young master couldn't be found. Little Ethan was the only precious thing left to Nathan after Ethan's mother was killed.

"Huh! So it's you who lost my grandson. Tell me! Did you connive with our enemies?! Did you sell information to them? How much money did they give you?" Old Man Xu was about to grab the nanny by her collar and strangle her to death but Nathan stopped him by his elbow.

"No! N–Nooo sir… I didn't do it, sir! I swear!" The nanny's voice was trembling in fear.

"Dad! Can you just go out?! I will deal with her personally," Nathan ordered his father while rubbing his temples.

"This wouldn't happen if you didn't teach him how to sneak out from his bodyguards!" Nathan added, reprimanding Old Man Xu as well.

Old Man Xu pouted his lips upon meeting Nathan's sharp gaze. He heaved a sigh of defeat. His son was right. He was partly at fault here. They had to find the little boy before their enemies could do something bad against the boy. They couldn't afford to lose another family member, otherwise, Nathan would go on a rampage once again and there would be another bloodshed!

"Damn! I won't just wait here, doing nothing. I will search for my grandson personally!" Old Man Xu declared to them.

Old Man Xu was about to leave the room when suddenly, there was a knock outside. Since he was already standing closest to the entrance, Old Man Xu was the one who pulled the steel knob, opening the door wide.

He furrowed his brows as he found it odd when he saw no one. Incidentally, he lowered his head and was baffled. "Little… Ethan??!!!"

"Gramps!" The little boy greeted his grandfather cheerfully.

His loud voice made everyone look at the front door, including Nathan who was already very stressed by this incident.

"Little Ethan! My grandson, where have you been?!" Old Man Xu picked him up and hugged him tightly as if they hadn't seen each other for a century.

Everyone inside the office rejoiced inwardly as though they found their angel who just saved them from their deaths. They felt relieved for having survived this disaster called the Devil's Wrath!

Meanwhile, Nathan walked towards the door with large strides. "What happened to you?" he asked the young boy with a hint of both worry and relief in his eyes.

Ethan twisted his body to get down from Old Man Xu's arms. Having escaped the tight grip of his grandfather, Little Ethan turned to Nathan and seized his hand. And with a charming smile on his face, he answered him cheerfully, "Dad! I've finally found her. My wife-to-be!"

Nathan: "..."

Old Man Xu: "..."

Nanny: "..."

Bodyguards: "..."

Amidst the silence of everyone, the young boy continued speaking his mind in front of his beloved father and grandfather.

"I got lost in the mall and bumped into this beautiful lady. Dad, I brought her here for you to meet her. She agreed to be my date for Gramps' birthday party tonight!"
