Caleb was frantically searching the streets, and just as he was getting burnt out, a call came in from the villa, telling him that Alina had been on her way back.
"Who's sending her back?" Caleb asked as he turned the car around.
However the maid on the other side of the phone said, "He just said he was going to send Miss Hughes back, and hung up without saying anything else."
Nothing else was said? No requests?
Caleb frowned.
It's true that they're looking for Alina, but they definitely didn't put up a search notice.
According to Alina's foolish appearance, what useful information could the other party ask out of her mouth? How could they send her home?
Could it be an acquaintance?
But, no one in E City knows Alina at all.
...
In the car, Alina was having a fever, lied in the man's arms, her eyes in tears, "Chester, Chester."
The man tightened without the slightest response.
When the car arrived at the entrance of the villa where Alina lived, the maid who had received the call was already waiting at the door.
The driver driving in front said apprehensively, "Lord, there are three of them."
The man in the back seat, with a grimy scarred face, opened his shrewd eyes at the word.
He said in a light tone, "You send her down."
"Okay."
The driver in front got out, opened a big black umbrella, came to the back and brutally picked up Alina and was about to leave.
Yet the moment he picked up Alina, he clearly felt the hostile aura emanating from the man's body.
What's wrong with this?
He with such an eccentric temperament was getting really difficult to serve.
The driver dared not show his blame in the slightest.
When the villa's maid saw Alina being sent back, she came forward, "Miss Hughes, you've finally come back."
However, when she got closer, she realised that Alina was half asleep and didn't look awake at all.
And she felt hot all over as the maid caught her.
Before the maid said thank you, several people rushed to take Alina inside.
Caleb's car returned just in time to meet the Rolls-Royce leaving, and he hardly ever has strange vehicles coming in here.
Could it be the car that delivered Alina?
His eyes were sharp, yet the dark glass didn't allow him to see anything.
The car went straight into the rain and he didn't have time to follow it to see who it was because he was worried about Alina.
...
When Caleb returned, the servants in the villa were all busy, all rushing to bring down Alina's fever.
When Caleb heard that Alina was sick, he was even more furious.
The butler said, "The doctor's been informed and is on his way."
Caleb was shortness of breath.
This fool was really getting to be a worry now.
When he entered the room, an ice pack had been placed on Alina's forehead by the maid, and he went up and took her hand.
The temperature in the palm of her hand was hot.
The maid came forward and said, "Just took the temperature and it's 39 degrees."
Caleb's breathing tightened.
She was not only not really in good spirits, but even her health was bad.
What exactly does it take for her to be well?
It's a good thing she was brought back tonight, but if she hadn't been brought back, would she have been desperate with the storm outside?
But when he thought of despair, Caleb just burst into a bitter smile, who could be more upset than the despair he gave?
