Chapter 372 Sadie Was Missing
Nanette entered Sadie’s hospital room with a thermos in hand, her face bright with a caring smile.
“Sadie, I brought your favorite chicken soup. Have some,” she said, approaching the bedside.
Her smile disappeared when she noticed the empty bed.
“Sadie? Where are you, Sadie?” Nanette’s voice trembled with worry as she set the thermos down and began searching the
room.
“Sadie! Where are you? This isn’t funny.” Her voice escalated with urgency and fear.
Nanette searched every corner of the room but found no trace of Sadie.
She realized the gravity of the situation, her heart sinking.
She rushed to the door and confronted the two bodyguards stationed there. “What happened? Where is Sadie? Where did
she go?”
The bodyguards exchanged confused looks.
“Miss Barton, we… we don’t know…”
“We’ve been here the whole time and didn’t see her leave.”
“What? You’ve been here the whole time and didn’t see her leave?” Nanette’s voice sharpened, her finger pointing
accusingly at the bodyguards. “Incompetent! You can’t even keep an eye on one injured person. What will you do if something has happened to Sadie?”
The bodyguards, chastened and flustered, remained silent.
They too were panicking; Sadie’s disappearance was no trivial matter.
If Noah found out, they knew they’d be in deep trouble.
“What are you waiting for? Go find her!” Nanette commanded.
The bodyguards hurried off to search for Sadie.
Nanette’s anxiety escalated.
She pulled out her phone and dialed Samuel’s number.
The call connected immediately.
“Mr. Ford, Sadie is missing,” she said, her voice breaking.
“What? Miss Hudson is missing?” Samuel responded, his tone alarmed. “Don’t worry. I’ll inform Mr. Wall right away, and

we’ll organize a search immediately.”
After ending the call, Nanette slumped into a chair, her hands covering her face as she began to cry.
Meanwhile, Samuel struggled to maintain his composure.
He understood that losing his temper wouldn’t help, finding Sadie was the priority.
He immediately called Noah. As soon as the call connected, Samuel urgently said, “Mr. Wall, Mrs. Wall has disappeared from
the hospital.”
Noah, who had been lounging on the sofa idly caressing a wine glass, stiffened upon hearing the news, his demeanor
turning imposing.
“What did you say?” His voice was low and ominous.
“Nanette just informed me that Mrs. Wall is missing from the hospital. The bodyguards insisted they were at the door the entire time and didn’t see her leave, yet she’s gone.” Samuel’s voice trembled, as he anticipated Noah’s reaction and the
possible repercussions.
Noah stood abruptly, his movements swift as he grabbed his coat. The wine glass shattered in his hand, red wine seeping
through his fingers–a stark and foreboding image.
Yet, he seemed unfazed by the pain, his eyes icily focused.
“Lock down the hospital! Check every exit thoroughly!” Noah commanded, his voice grave and commanding. “Leave no
stone unturned. Find her!”
Pausing for a second, he added, his tone even more foreboding, “Also, seal all exit routes from the city. Highways, railways, airports–inspect every mode of transport. Don’t let any suspicious individual or vehicle escape!”
“Understood, Mr. Wall. I’ll coordinate the search immediately,” Samuel responded, knowing better than to delay.
Noah donned his coat and strode out of the office with a fierce aura.
Three years ago, he had lost Sadie once.
Now, she had vanished again on his watch.
