Stanley was gone, indeed.
+15 Bonus
Alex, Heather, and Carmen had searched the entire hospital, but they still couldn’t find him.
Carmen took a seat and breathily said, “Let’s take a break. My old, frail body is going to fall apart.”
“Mom! Stanley is gone! Why are you even resting? Let’s hurry up and search!” Heather urged anxiously.
However, Carmen merely waved her hand and continued to sit on the chair. “You’re about to divorce soon. It’s fine if the child is gone. Who cares about the child anyways,” she argued indifferently.
Carmen’s indifference was due to not wanting her daughter to have a burden following her around. Even if they did find Stanley, Alex would be the one raising him. So basically, the boy had nothing to do with her.
There was no reason to tire herself just for the child of a loser.
It wasn’t worth it.
Alex’s eyes turned red at her selfish words. What? Did she just say it is okay for Stanley to be missing?
Does Stanley mean nothing to these people?
Alex was initially worried sick about Stanley’s disappearance, but Carmen’s words had stirred up the raw anger within him.
He stretched his hand toward Carmen’s throat and squeezed it, lifting her entire body from the chair.
Carmen, who couldn’t feel her feet on the ground, began struggling to remove his grip from her throat. She wanted to yell but couldn’t because his hand was choking her airway.
“Does Stanley mean nothing to you? Do you not care for his well-being at all? Is he so unimportant to you?” Alex forced each word out through gritted teeth.
Seeing Alex was going to break Carmen’s neck soon, Heather ran over to them and hit his arm, hoping to dislodge Carmen from his steely grip. “Alex, that’s not what she meant. Hurry up and let her go. She’s going to die if this goes on,” she screamed frantically.
Alex snapped out from his cloud of anger yet still felt averse toward Carmen. He threw her to the side like
trash.
Alex didn’t feel the slightest bit of pity at the sight of Carmen coughing on the ground, trying to get her breath back. Instead, he warned chillingly, “If I hear such words coming from your mouth again, I won’t hesitate to kill you.”
Alex pivoted on his heels and left. His main concern at that moment was to search for Stanley.
Heather helped Carmen up from the ground. She inquired worriedly, “Mom, are you okay?”
“How can I be okay? I was nearly choked to death by that piece of trash. Does he still even consider me as his mother-in-law? Heather, you have to divorce him,” Carmen demanded determinedly.

Chapter 704 Traffic Organ
Just now, I was on the verge of being choked to death by Alex. How could I not be afraid?
Alex continued searching for Stanley. When he saw passersby, he would stop to ask around.
He was so worried that he felt stabs of anxiety in his gut.
Stanley was the most important person in his life hence the panic he felt when he heard Stanley had gone missing.
