Chapter 1168 Is That You
“We’re here, Mr. Cooper.”
Seeing that they had arrived, Wendy had no choice but to ask for the child.
Edmund appeared reluctant.
In the end, he couldn’t help but give the baby a gentle kiss on the forehead before giving her back to Wendy.
“By the way, where’s her mother? Hasn’t she come back? What was Jaena doing in Oceanic Estate, anyway?”
Wendy, who was just about to alight the vehicle, looked avoidant as soon as she heard that.
Being the sharp-minded man he was, Edmund immediately realized something was up, and he stopped the woman.
“What happened? Is she okay?”
“Calm down, Mr. Cooper. Ms. Sabrina’s…doing okay. It’s just that when she went to your—Mr. Devin’s grave after coming back, his uncle, Waylon, came looking for her. I don’t know what happened exactly, but they ended up in a fight, and Ms. Sabrina was eventually hospitalized. She’s been depressed ever since she went home, and she doesn’t seem to want to talk to anyone now.”
Unable to hide the truth, Wendy explained everything to Edmund.
Indeed, Sabrina hadn’t been talking much as of late, nor did she bother with anything at all ever since she left the hospital. The woman appeared fine, but she would often just sit somewhere quietly.
Sometimes, she would remain in a daze for the entire day, not doing anything even if her child was crying.
That was why Jaena had to be brought back to Oceanic Estate.
Sigh…
Wendy felt concerned for the child.
But she certainly didn’t expect the man who had remained calm all this while to suddenly lose his cool.
Edmund’s face grew increasingly pale as his pupils dilated in fear.
Before Wendy and the chauffeur could even react, he opened the car door and sprinted into the Red Pavilion.
“Mr. Cooper! Wait, Mr. Cooper!”
“Come back!”
The two were beyond stunned, especially Wendy.
The woman hastily ran after Edmund while carrying the baby.
Yet, Edmund was nowhere to be seen, for he had long made his way up the stairs in just ten seconds.
On top of that, he had managed to grab the exact key to Sabrina’s room—or rather, the room Devin used to stay in—under the stupefied gazes of all the housemaids.
