Chapter 884

“Oh, the whole team is here! What are you all doing up so late?”

Jeremy chuckled. “We’re waiting for you, John! Did you manage to meet Mrs. Seet this time?”




John nodded. “Yes, and I’ve said everything there is to say. However, as Mr. Seet had predicted, she
didn’t believe us at all!” He let out a sigh and continued, “You can probably see it from that ice-cold look
on Mr. Seet’s face, right? His wife was really nasty towards him!”

Jeremy frowned. “No, because we haven’t seen Mr. Seet.”

“Yeah, how are we supposed to tell that from his face if we haven’t seen him?”



John froze. “Wait… Mr. Seet isn’t back yet?”



“Nope!”

“How is that possible? He left before I did!”



The Hidden Masters exchanged glances and looked at John worriedly. “You said Mr. Seet left before you
did, but we haven’t seen him come home at all!”

John was confused. And here I was complaining that he didn’t wait for me! Where could he have possibly
gone?





“Don’t panic, let’s call him and ask him where he is.”

John said and dialed Evan’s number, but there was no answer.

“Do you think he could still be at Wicked Palace?”

“Try calling Juan!” Jeremy suggested.

John did as told, but Juan said, “Daddy left long ago!”

“Go check in your mommy’s room, Juan. Mr. Seet might have gone back to see her again!”

“Okay!”

Juan got dressed and knocked on Nicole’s bedroom door.

“What is it, Juan?”

“Is Daddy with you, Mommy?”

“No, he isn’t!” Nicole said angrily.

Juan ran back into his room and told John about it.



John paused. Where else could Mr. Seet be?

Even the Hidden Masters were starting to panic and complained about John being unprofessional.

“You should’ve stayed by his side, John! How could you just leave him by himself?”



“Yeah! Wicked Palace is the enemy’s territory! What if something happens to Mr. Seet?”

“Should we go back and search for him?”

“Calm down, you guys! Mr. Seet is an adult, okay? He’s not going to get himself lost! He probably just
went to get some fresh air and clear his head or something! I’m sure he’ll be back soon!”

With that, they decided to wait a little while longer.

John was so anxious that he even began praying while he waited. Dear God, please let Mr. Seet come
back safely! I’ll be dead if anything happens to him!

After waiting for a couple of hours, the Hidden Masters were losing their patience.

Jensen kept pacing about, glaring at John every now and then, and sighing each time he did.

At the same time, John was getting uncomfortable with his behavior and spoke up, “You can’t blame me
entirely for this, you know? I only stayed behind to try and resolve the misunderstanding between them!”

“Quit finding excuses already! If anything happens to Mr. Seet, his blood will be on your hands!”

“Yeah!”

John had nothing to say in response to that.

Oh, Mr. Seet… Why did you only bring me along? Why didn’t you bring these guys with you? All they do
is sit around and complain anyway! Sigh… This might just be it for me… Wherever you are Mr. Seet,
now would really be a good time to come back… If I could turn back time, I would never have tried to
convince Mrs. Seet! All I got in return were insults from her…



Darius took pity in how stressed John was and defended him. “Now, now, blaming John isn’t going to do
us any good. Let’s hurry up and go find Mr. Seet.”

“Yeah! Let’s head over to Wicked Palace! He might still be there!” Damien said.

Then, the two began walking towards the door.
