Somehow, Xante got a really bad feeling about the whole thing, so she quickly whipped out her phone to call Corinne. However, no one answered.
She called the Holdens'' mansion and asked whether Corinne was at home, to which she was told no.
The bad feeling Xante had intensified. She put away her phone and quickly asked Sunny, "When did the boss leave the hospital?"
Sunny thought about it and answered, "About an hour before you came. Lucas was the one who sent her home. Why do you ask?"
Xante frowned. "Call your brother now. Ask him if the boss is with him. Hurry!"
Sunny did not understand why Xante was in such a panic, but he still did as he was told. He called Lucas even though he did not dare to call him for fear of getting lectured. However, Lucas did not pick up the phone either.
Xante had guessed what was going on when she saw Sunny was silent. "He''s not picking up, is he?"
Sunny nodded. "Yeah. What''s the matter, Xante? Is something bothering you?"
"I saw Sophia in the elevator just now, and I have a feeling she didn''te alone. In other words, Jeremy should be here in the hospital, too."
Sunny''s expression became serious. "You''re worried Lucas and Corinne didn''t leave the hospital after they saw Jeremy?"RêAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
Xante nodded. "Yeah. I saw where Sophia went, so I''m going over there to look for them now."
Sunny immediately followed her. "I''ming with you."
Xante frowned. "You should stay with your father. He needs you more."
Sunny grabbed Xante''s arm. "No! How can I let you go face that evil woman alone? My dad''s going to be fine with the nurse looking after him. Plus, he promises he won''t do anything stupid again now that he knows Corinne is still alive. I''ming with you."
Xante knew it would be impossible to get rid of Sunny, and she did not want to waste time trying. She wanted to find Corinne as fast as possible to make sure she was safe.
Sophia was willing to do anything to hold Jeremy captive, so she was rightfully worried that she would do something extreme to Corinne. Thus, Xante simply allowed Sunny to tag along.
The two of them came to the unusually quiet corridor on the first floor. There was not a single person in sight. No doctor, no nurse, and no patient. It was as if someone deliberately cleared the whole ce of people.
As they looked around the ce, Sunny asked, "Xante, are you sure Sophia came here? Why isn''t there anyone here?"
It was beyond strange.
Xante raised one finger to her lips as a signal for him to be silent.
Sunny obeyed and followed cautiously beside her as they looked around some more.
