Chapter 1545
Damn it! How am I supposed to explain this to Mr. Atherton?
If only she had known better than to step outside for a phone call. She should have always stayed by the mother and daughter's side.
Speak of the devil...
Before Sonia could even locate Joanne, Edwin came racing to the hospital. His face, usually so playful and carefree, had turned blue with worry and fear. The veins on his forehead bulged with tension.
When he arrived at the ward, he found only empty rooms.
"Where is everyone?" he asked.
Sonia hung her head in shame. "I... I came back from my phone call and found that Mrs. Atherton and her daughter were gone. The nurse said they had been discharged."
"Discharged?" Edwin fumed. "I told you to protect them around the clock! The billboard nearly smashed them, and you let them leave the hospital?"
A wave of oppression washed over Sonia, and she felt even more guilty. 'Til go find them right away."
"Wait."
Edwin called out to her before she could leave.
"Is there anything else you need?" Sonia asked, trembling.
Edwin's deep eyes narrowed like a cheetah on the hunt.
"Tell me everything that happened today."
It made no sense for Joanne to suddenly leave with Tail for no reason.
Even if Tail's fever had just subsided, and even if they ignored the incident with the falling billboard, she should have kept Tail in the hospital for at least two more days.
They couldn't have left without telling him.
There had to be another explanation.
