CHAPTER 554

The restaurant was warm and cozy, with servers offering coffee and various pastries. They had been resting when Sampson walked in through the door.

"Where's Rose?" Sampson asked, not seeing his niece in sight.

"She's probably still playing outside."

The snow outside was beautiful, and Rose, being a young girl, still had energy to burn.

Sampson sent a message to the staff.

The staff replied quickly:

[Ms. Rose said she wanted to play by herself for a while, so we didn't follow her.]

Perhaps fearing Sampson's potential blame, the staff added:

[Ms. Rose said she would call us if anything came up, and we reminded her she has a whistle in her pocket.]

[Go find her, have her take a break and eat something to replenish her energy,]

[Understood.]

The staff immediately checked the surveillance cameras and found that Rosemary had gone down the farthest ski slope and hadn't returned.
