Chapter 639
The private jet arrived at the airport on time before a tall,
intimidating man exited the airport under the protection of a group
of bodyguards.
After he got into the luxury car, he took out his personal mobile
phone to call Taya when a pang of splitting headache struck him.
That incomparably handsome face was deathly pale to the
point of losing all its blood in an instant, and so were the eyes
bloodshot…
He threw away the phone, and with trembling hands, rummaged
for the painkillers prescribed by the medical director at
Washington before shoving several of the pills into his mouth in
one go.
When one of the bodyguards in the front line saw that he was
still in unbearable pain after having undergone treatment, he
persuaded out of worry, “Alpha Knight, why don’t you have the
surgery?”
Surgery implied undergoing a craniotomy. Go d knew if he’d be able to wake up and recover from the
surgery to see Taya once more? He would never agree to anything unpredictable.

cold glance past t

you ignore my orders?
The bodyguard fell dead silent. Alpha Knight had given the instructions that no one was to mention his
condition upon
returning to the United States. He had gone overboard. “I’m
sorry.”
Griffon withdrew his cold gaze and raised his knuckle-bo ned
hands to massage his temples, quietly waiting for the medicine to
take effect…
When the headache no longer hurt as much, the car stopped at
the entrance of the villa. Griffon braced all his strength to exit the
car and stride into the bathroom.
After washing up, he entered the cloakroom to pick out a formal
black suit and got a hair stylist to deal with his thick hair.
It was only when he saw that the man in the mirror was no longer
as pale and eyes as red-rimmed did he open the safe.
Very carefully, he withdrew the three items stored, a scarf, a
photo, and a diamond ring.
With much caution, he inserted the items into a box and walked
out of the villa carefully holding onto them…
He wanted to be the only one to take Taya to Finland, so he didn’t
get the bodyguards to tag along. After ordering them to stand by, he drove to Harper’s villa by himself.
Mandy hurried to open the door after seeing that it was Griffon.
“Alpha Knight, Ms. Palmer is working on her drawings in the study. I’ll go get her…”
Griffon nodded to Mandy. “Thank you.”
Mandy was really fond of the Alpha. Not only was he polite and a gentleman, and he was, too, good-
looking. The cherry on top was
the love he devoted to Taya.
Being extremely satisfied, Mandy returned a smile before she turned and walked into the study. “Ms.
Palmer, Alpha Knight is
here, come out quickly…”
When Mandy pushed the door open and failed to see Ms.
Palmer’s figure, her words stopped halfway through.
Mandy let out a gasp, puzzled. “Strange, isn’t Ms. Palmer always in the study? Where is she?”
Griffon, waiting outside the door, saw Mandy leaving the study
and walking up to the upper floor. His face sank as he stepped

With one step onto the first floor, he saw Mandy coming out of the
bedroom frowning. He sped up forward to ask, “Is she not here?”
Mandy nodded, a little confused. “Ms. Palmer is not in the study,
nor is she in the bedroom, where did she go?”
Griffon’ heart sk ip ped a beat. A sense of uneasiness poured down upon him, filling his starry eyes
with panic in an instant.
He dashed to the study room. In front of the large wooden desk,
no trace of Taya was found, only rolled up drawings.
Griffon had long been thrown into panic, but he had to calm
himself down. After sending Mandy to retrieve the surveillance
footage, he returned to the car to fetch his phone.
He swiftly reached for his mobile phone to call Taya, but even after
making several calls, no one answered…
The sound of the beeping and automated voice from the receiver
sent the flustered Griffon trembling with fear.
He had told Taya that he would come to pick her up, so she
wouldn’t wander around, unless anything were to have happened.
Calming his frantic self down, he raised his fingers and waved at the group of bodyguards waiting
outside the villa.
He didn’t have time to accuse the bodyguards of not protecting
Taya. Instead, his icy voice rang out. “Go and find Taya. If you all
can’t find her, get lost!”
