Chapter 726
"Yes, Miranda hasn't come to the office. She's gone missing," someone at the company remarked indifferently.
Initially, Nina had planned to use her recovered memories to scare Miranda into revealing something. But learning that Miranda hadn't shown up at work for days was puzzling.
She remembered Miranda being released from prison and participating in some events, although those events were lackluster. Miranda's reputation had taken a nosedive, and her career seemed over, but it shouldn't have led to her disappearance.
Maybe Miranda was using her disappearance as another publicity stunt?
Given her past behavior, it was hard not to be suspicious. However, if the company was unaware of her whereabouts, it was probably not just a stunt.
"Miranda is missing, and she's still part of your company. Aren't you going to report it to the police?" Nina asked.
"We're not her family. Company policy dictates we can't act without higher authorization. We have to avoid damaging the company's image," the person replied coldly.
The harshness of the business world struck Nina. Nash had originally founded the entertainment company for Miranda. Now, with her missing, no one seemed to care.
Nina had been pondering the ruthlessness and coldness of capitalists, but the more she thought about it, the more something felt off.
Miranda had been released from prison and re-entered the entertainment industry. Her release was kept quiet, so it shouldn't have affected her.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
What did impact her was that damaging report. If the company had intervened, the report would have been quickly suppressed. With some effort, it would have been erased entirely.
But the current situation suggested Miranda had been abandoned. There was no PR support, and she was still facing backlash from netizens. The company's former top star was left uncared for.
If Nash truly cared about Miranda, he would have handled everything for her.
So why was there no action?
Where was Miranda now?
While she was deep in thought, she heard someone respectfully call out, "Mr. York."
Nash entered the office with his usual commanding presence, his tall frame accentuated by the sunlight. His cold demeanor and authoritative gaze made him seem unapproachable.
Instinctively, Nina stepped back, wanting to avoid drawing his attention as their relationship was on the verge of breaking apart. By stepping aside, she overheard Quincy giving instructions, "From now on, all information about Miranda is to be completely sealed. She is not to appear in any public view. If anyone asks, say nothing. She no longer exists."
Nina was utterly shocked by what she heard.
"Yes, Mr. Quincy," everyone present responded promptly, not daring to question the directive.
The person Nina had been talking to earlier looked nervous, realizing that their conversation could lead to trouble. Nina's mind raced, trying to piece together the implications of Nash's order.
Miranda's disappearance must be tied to Nash. He wasn't hiding her for some romantic reason. It had to be something more sinister, like imprisonment or worse, and both were illegal.
Her heart pounded with anxiety. If Nash was involved, he was risking everything, including his future. The thought that Nash might have released Miranda from prison just to take matters into his own hands seemed more plausible now.
Her face paled at the thought. As Nash and his team neared the elevator, Nina could not hold back.
She stepped forward and called out, "Nash!"
