Due to the lack of surveillance in certain areas on the way to the airport, there were still no clues about what had happened to them. The police indicated that the two likely had been abducted.
However, if they were truly abducted, the abductors would have made contact by now. The absence of any communication suggested that it probably wasn’t an abduction.
It was more likely that both Joe and Paul, along with the driver, had met with an unfortunate fate. Both assumptions were based on speculation before finding anyone.
Though they hadn’t found any trace of Joe or Paul, Skylar firmly believed they were safe. Tears welled up in her eyes as she replayed the video of Joe over and over. She whispered, “He’ll be fine. He has to be fine.”
Outside the guest room, Jacky turned to Steven and said, “There’s a chance Mr. Martin might already be dead.”
When he retrieved the surveillance footage, he had been informed that continuing the search was unlikely to yield results. They had been in Murida for a month, exhausting every possible method and contacting everyone they could think of.
Thus, there was no longer a need to continue searching. It was time to return and deal with the mess left behind.
The situation at the Martin Group was grim.
Joe’s associates and the other shareholders were currently embroiled in fierce conflict. With Joe now unreachable, he had been presumed dead back in Jipsburg.
Fortunately, Joe had implemented some protective measures for the Martin Group. If he were still alive, his return would mean that those scheming in the chaos would face the consequences for their actions.
Jacky knew it was time to go back. Steven nodded, his face serious as he glanced back at Skylar in the guest room. He also needed to return.

He let out a deep sigh. “This outcome is not what we wanted to see.”
They had all witnessed what Skylar had endured over the past month. Each glimmer of hope had turned into disappointment.
Everyone held onto a silent answer, keeping their hopes alive until they had to confront the truth. “We need to face reality. You should tell her,” Jacky said rationally.
Steven nodded. “Alright.”
After Jacky and Howard left, he returned to the guest room and found Skylar lost in thought,

The recent surveillance footage captured Joe’s final moments before he was last seen. The impact of that video weighed heavily on Skylar. Just as he was about to speak, she suddenly said, “Are you going to tell me that Jacky and Howard are heading back to Jipsburg?”
Steven was momentarily taken aback, then he nodded knowingly. “You figured it out?”
“We’ve been here for a month. During this time, a lot has happened in Jipsburg, but we’ve come up empty–handed. I kept insisting on finding them, but I lost track of time. Without realizing it, we’ve been searching for a whole month.” Skylar’s voice was heavy, and her expression showed a hint of confusion.
The pain inside her began to surface as she spoke, making it almost impossible for her to
continue.
For the past few days, she had been wondering if her rebirth had changed Joe’s fate and led him into danger. She took a deep breath, trying to calm the ache in her heart. “Steven, it’s time for us to go back.”
Steven looked at her with concern. “Okay, let’s go home.”
But the search here wouldn’t stop. After all, they needed to find Joe, regardless of how long took. They had to see him alive or confirm his death.
Martin Group had fallen into an unprecedented crisis due to Joe’s disappearance.
In just a month, Gloria had sold off her shares. Ernest was using all means possible to elevate Claudio to the top, and Claudio believed he was just as capable as Joe.
Just a few days ago, when everyone thought Claudio would become the new CEO of the Martin Group, a sudden turn of events occurred.
