Chapter 1338
But they came back empty–handed every time.
After Rosalynn arrived, Ablett filled her in on the search and rescue efforts of the past two days.
“Mrs Silverman, this is the only area left to cover, it’s our last shot If we still can’t find President Silverman, it’s likely
he was swept out to the open ocean… “It’s like looking for a needle in a haystack, Ablett said regretfully.
“Well worry about it when we get there” Rosalynn lowered her eyes, ‘Ill bring you guys some food later, thanks for
your hard work.”

Rosalynn gave a faint smile, left some cash for the rescue team and left right away
Once she was gone, some of the team members gathered around, and Ablett handed over the cash, “This is from
Mrs. Silverman, Share it among yourselves!
Everyone was thrilled, and one of the members suddenly said, “We seasoned rescuers all know, under those
circumstances, there’s no chance Mr. Silverman could’ve survived. And his body might have been swept into the
deep sea and eaten by marine life I don’t know why Mrs. Silverman insists on searching.
Another added, “Yeah, I heard that if Mr. Silverman were to die, all his assets would go to her. Can you imagine how
much money that is? If I were her, I’d stop searching, with that kind of money, I could find any man I wanted”
“Watch your mouth!” Ablett frowned.
He had seen plenty of people who gave up searching due to high costs. He had also seen marriages fall apart, with
one party conspiring with others to murder their spouse and make a fortune
But people like Mrs Silverman, who never gave up hope and insisted on finding her husband, were few and far
between.
Truth be told, he’d been praying for a miracle every day since the search started, hoping they’d find Wayne.
But whether his prayers were unheard, or simply ignored, hope was dwindling.
Once they finished searching the last area, if Wayne was still nowhere to be found, they’d have no choice but to
end their mission.

Rosalynn refused to let the atmosphere at home be too gloomy. She insisted on putting up a Christmas tree and
filling the house with balloons, making the whole place Christmas ready. It had been raining for a few days, but the
weather was perfect on Christmas Eve.
Ivy, Molly and Max were playing on the lawn, covered in leaves and grass.
When they saw Rosalynn’s car pull into the driveway, Ivy rushed over.
“Mom, you’re back!” Ivy hugged Rosalynn’s legs, “Did you see him? How is he? When is he going to call me? School
is starting soon, if he doesn’t come back, he won’t have time to play with me!” Molly also ran over. Hearing Ivy’s
words, she looked at Rosalynn with concern.
