Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 1463

Chapter 1463 Prick

Seeing the state Brandon was in, Ellie felt slightly irked and thus could not stop herself from saying those words.

Just as she stopped speaking, the man scouring through the trash below the bed turned to glare at her. That murderous gazes and horrifying aura were equivalent to that of a devil from hell.

“You didn’t go and look for Willow, right?”

“W-What?”

“You better pray that nothing happens to her; otherwise, I’m not going to let you off!”

He gritted every word through his teeth in disdain.

That gaze of his was as if he wanted to devour her alive.

Panic-stricken, Ellie stood there frozen, with her face drained of all colors. Just as she was about to say something, the man’s phone suddenly rang.

“Hello?”

“Greetings, Mr. Emmanuel. We’ve run a check with the information you’ve provided and found that there was a pregnant lady who resembled the photo you provided. Apparently, she left Avenport by Frankel Express about five months ago. Unfortunately, we regret to inform you that after she dropped off at Baykeep, we could not gather any more new information.”

A polite voice sounded from the other side of the call. Ellie shivered uncontrollably after hearing that.

Frankel Express was the choice of transport that celebrities in the entertainment industry would use since they were well-known for avoiding paparazzi.

Back then, Ellie had also managed to trace Willow’s footsteps through the same service, but she kept it a secret from everyone else.

Since they had progressed to that point, it was not too difficult for them to track down Willow’s whereabouts. Things would become crystal clear as long as they direct their investigations following that lead.

Beads of cold sweat rolled down Ellie’s face. Finally, she brought herself to put forth the words in her mind. “B-Brandon, I’m sorry I didn’t tell you the truth back then. I-I was afraid that you’ll be affected…”

“And then?”

The man hung up the call and cast a death glare at her, leaving the latter at a loss for words.

It took her yet another moment before she mustered the courage to enunciate her words. With an ashen face, she stuttered, “I-I did it all because I wanted the best for you two. A-And so after she arrived at Smallpoint, I-I… arranged for her to admit into a hospital…”

“Hospital?”

“Y-Yeah… I thought it’s better to let her have a good rest since she’s eight months into her pregnancy. I wanted to tell you only after you finished filming, but when I went back there to look for her, I found out she was not at the hospital. I-I have no idea where she went after that.”

Ellie finally revealed what had happened.

By the time she concluded her statement, she was already trembling so much that she could barely stand up straight.

Brandon stood up.
