1759 Self-directed Plot
Inside the banquet hall, Huo Yulin frowned after hearing the alarms. Even though he did not seem as worried as the other guests, he inexplicably felt frustrated.
No one had any clue about the incident or Morey’s gunshot wound from the sniper.
Huo Yulin raised his hand to glance at his watch. Ten minutes had passed since his little sister had gone to change her clothes.
He thought about Huo Yao uncharacteristically asking to attend the banquet. Now, the count’s residence was on high alert. Something had clearly happened.
Huo Yulin took out his phone and gave Huo Yao a call.
Sadly, he was unable to even get connected.
Huo Yulin tried again a couple of times, but nothing changed.
He put away his phone and glanced around the spacious hall. He was unable to find Countess Kerr, so he stopped hesitating and went straight to the stairs leading to the second floor.
He could only hope that the alarm had nothing to do with his little sister and that she had indeed simply gone upstairs to change her clothes.
When Huo Yulin got to the stairs, he happened to run into Min Yu walking out of the side hall.
Min Yu noticed the expression on Huo Yulin’s face and his eyes turned dark. “Brother Yulin, where is Yao?”
Huo Yulin could not be bothered when Min Yu greeted him as his brother. “Her clothes got wet. Ten minutes ago, a maid took her upstairs to wash up. I just called her, but I can’t get through her phone.”
Min Yu narrowed his eyes. Morey had pulled him aside ten minutes ago as well.
From the looks of it, they were targeting Huo Yao.
Min Yu quickly went upstairs without saying a word.
