Hello, Mr. Brent novel Chapter 245

"What's wrong?" A bad feeling welled up in Franklin's heart and he immediately asked Jason.

Emily's face was also pale from nervousness. She clenched her hands tightly to prevent herself from fainting. She wanted to ask, but she felt like her mouth was stuck.

Jason swallowed and said with a sour face, "Captain Millers just called and said...Hunter was found, but...But he was already dead when they found him."

"What?!" Even Franklin looked shocked.

Emily felt her eyes dulled and she almost blacked out. After a while, she asked in a trembling voice, "Then... What about my son? How's my son now?"

She was really fearful that she would hear bad news.

Her heart seemed to be hung on a cliff, and Jason's words could make it fall into the abyss or onto the ground safely.

"Captain Millers said only Hunter's body was there. He drowned. They didn't know where the young master was. They searched the house but didn't find the young master. Hunter must have fallen into the pond when he went after the young master."

"What about Bryce? Did Bryce fall in?" As soon as Emily heard that Hunter fell into the pond, she felt more fearful.

Jason shook his head, "I don't know yet. Captain Millers is retrieving the corpse and asked us to hurry over."

"Franklin, what should we do? If something bad happened to Bryce, if Bryce..." Emily was too fearful to say those words completely.

Franklin put his arm around her shoulder, his eyes deep, and said, "Don't worry. Nothing will happen."

After saying that, he helped her out with his arms around her shoulders. They took Jason's car to go there.

It was only when they arrived at that place that they realized they were in the suburbs. And the house belonged to a farmer and was rented by Hunter. There were a lot of people renting houses in that place, so the policemen did not search this place at first. They thought Hunter would hide in the downtown area.

If the landlord hadn't called the police, Captain Millers wouldn't have come here so soon.

The landlord said he found Hunter brought a little boy of three or four years old with him and that the boy kept crying and howling. He was suspicious and secretly called the police, so Captain Millers had rushed over.

When Captain Millers and the policemen came, they found that there was no one in the house. There was only a shabby bed with one quilt on it. There were also some snacks for the child. Although they were opened, no one had eaten them.

Captain Millers thought that Hunter had been alerted and had run away. When the police officers were about to chase after him they heard someone saying that there seemed to be a person in the pond ahead.

So Captain Millers called for someone to get the body out, and found it was Hunter in surprise. But Bryce was nowhere to be found. The police had asked the people around and they all said they hadn't seen the child. Captain Millers suspected that Bryce also fell into the pond, so he called Jason and told him.

After Jason drove Franklin and Emily there, the police had been retrieving the body for a while.

Besides, Bryce was small, so if he had really fallen into the water and sank, it was not easy to salvage him.

Captain Millers also got a good swimmer to dive down to look for Bryce. Although the pond was not big, the man didn't find Bryce after searching around. But he wasn't sure if Emily was hiding somewhere under the mud. After all, he was so small that he couldn't be seen if he chose to hide.

Emily's face turned pale when she saw Hunter's body, not because she felt pity for him, but because she was afraid Bryce would be drowned, and that his face would become pale and bloated.

She could not even imagine that something like this would happen to her sweet son.

"Even if we know where the car is, the young master may not be in it, but I will still send someone to locate the car. We can at least get some news." Jason said to Franklin.

Franklin nodded with a sullen face and waved Jason to do it. He himself walked into the room and stared at Emily lying on the bed.

After a long day of suffering, Emily was already exhausted. Not knowing Bryce's whereabouts, she was heartbroken and lost her strength after spending a short time in the suburbs. When she came back, she could only lie on the bed, but she didn't want to eat or drink. She felt as if she had lost her soul.

Franklin walked over and touched her forehead.

She was having a mild fever.

It was understandable. After all, she had experienced such a big change, not to say that she was knocked out and tortured by him before that. It would be strange if she didn't have a fever.

Franklin quickly called Lisa and asked her to call the family doctor to treat Emily.

But Franklin knew very well why Emily was ill. It was because she had been thinking too much. Nothing could cure her unless Bryce could be found right away.

Therefore, she could only take some medicine, put on a drip, and rest more.

Sure enough, that was what the doctor said after he came. The doctor also said that Emily was too weak and had to be put on a nutritional drip.

Franklin didn't object. Emily didn't eat or drink. Without the nutritional injection, he was afraid she would break down physically and couldn't recover.

But this was not a permanent solution. After the doctor left, he sat by the bed and held her hand and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely find our son."
