Chapter 1331


    “No! What the hell is going on? Did something happen to her? Answer me!” demanded Francine.


    Lucas did not answer her. After thinking it over, he asked again, “Miss Francine, would you be able to


    contact Sophia now?”


    Francine knew things were serious if Lucas and Sunny were willing to put aside the bad blood between


    the two families to go to her house. Thus, after thinking it over, she said, “Sophia has called me before


    to look for Jeremy, but I didn’t save her number. I need to search through my call history to see if I still


    have a record of her number.”


    “Yes, please do, Miss Francine. That would be a great help to us,” said Lucas.


    Francine quickly took out her phone and scrolled through her call history.


    “I found it! This is her number. But why are you looking for her?” she asked.


    Lucas decided to give her the short story of it. “Miss Francine, Corinne ran away from the hospital this


    afternoon. I suspect Sophia took her away. Can you please call her to ask her where Corinne is?”


    ‘What? Corinne ran away from the hospital?’ Francine started to panic when she heard this. Without


    further prompting from Lucas, she quickly called Sophia.


    The call went through after a few rings.


    “Hello? Francine!” cried Sophia tearfully as though she was trying to hold back a sob.


    “Sophia, where are you right now?”


    “I’m at the hotel. What’s the matter? Is there a new lead on your brother’s case?”


    ‘Is he still alive?’ was the unspoken question in the air. Francine wished her brother was still alive too,

    “No. I’m not calling because of that. In fact, I want to ask you whether you’ve seen Corinne today


    because she’s missing!”


    Sophia pretended to be shocked. “What? She’s missing? No, I haven’t seen her today. What


    happened? Why would she suddenly go missing?”


    “Mister Lucas came to my house saying he suspects you took her away, so he asked me to call you.


    Do you really not know where she is? You do know she’s carrying my brother’s baby, right? So nothing


    can happen to her! You have to tell me if you did see her!”


    “But I haven’t seen her, Francine,” said Sophia innocently. “I really haven’t! Yes, I did go to the Riveras’


    with the hope of seeing her this afternoon, but they wouldn’t let me in. Mister Lucas even ordered the


    servants to drag me away.


    “And when I heard Corinne had been sent to the hospital, I went there with the hope of seeing her so I


    could make sure nothing happened to the baby, but Mister Lucas stopped me again. So no, I didn’t see


    her. As a matter of fact, how can he suspect that I was the one who took Corinne away?


    “I don’t even know which hospital room she was staying in! If he doesn’t believe me, he can go through


    the surveince footage to see whether I’m telling the truth or not! But more importantly, we should look


    for Corinne first!”


    Francine did not want to waste her time talking to Sophia anymore, so she just hung up the phone.


    Then, she asked Lucas, “Why was Corinne staying with you in the first ce? And how did she end up


    in the hospital? Did her water break?”


    Lucas shook his head. “No. She passed out from shock after she heard what happened to Jeremy, so


    we took her to the hospital. She and the baby were fine after the doctor tended to them. But then she


    snuck out of the hospital while I went out to get her some water.”


    ‘Sh*t! This isn’t good. Grandma and Grandpa are going to have another breakdown if they find out that


    Corinne is missing!’ thought Francine.

    “Then should we call the cops now? We must find her before something bad happens to her!” said


    Annie.


    “Miss Francine, can you please give me Sophia’s phone number? There’s something I’d like to ask


    her,” asked Lucas calmly.
