Luke sounded like he was about to cry on the phone, and Sebastian’s expression changed when he heard what he said.
Hospital? Something happened at the hospital? Is it Sasha?
Sebastian instantly grabbed the car keys and ran out when her name popped into his head. “What happened?”
“Ms. Wand… Ms. Wand is gone!” Luke’s voice was still shivering. “We’ve looked everywhere in the hospital for her. We’ve even gone through the security footage! We found nothing! It was like she just vanished into thin air!”
Sebastian remained quiet as he hurried down the stairs.
Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks and remembered what Vivian had said about her mommy disappearing.
Why would her mommy suddenly disappear? Bulls***!
“How can a breathing person just disappear like that?” Sebastian roared into the phone, his eyes were getting increasingly terrifying. “Find her! Even if you have to flip the whole city over, I want her found!”
Sebastian was panicking. As someone who always had total control over his emotion, he felt like he was about to go insane at that very moment.
“Wait, Mr. Hayes. Mr. Hayes Sr. came to the hospital,” Luke quickly added.
“What did you just say? My father?”
“Yes! After he left, we found people from the Hayes residence through the security footage. Mr. Hayes, this… What does this imply?
Luke was actually reluctant to ask that last question because once he said it, it would mean that a war between the father and son was inevitable.
The fact was, their relationship was never close, so things were only going downhill further from then on.
However, the importance of a human life vastly outweighed the decline of their relationship.
As expected, Sebastian immediately ended the call. After that, everyone who saw him in the villa would have felt his intense murdering intent as he walked past and disappeared like a whirlwind.
It was very terrifying.
Right then, Matteo came out. “Daddy, where are you going? Did something happen?”
Ian was still hugging Vivian while patting her back. When he heard Matteo ask that question, his emotionless face turned and looked towards them.
“Do you want to know?”
Matteo was hesitant as he did not want to know what went on amongst the adults. He knew it was too complicated for him to comprehend. He only wanted his father and mother to be safe so that they could live happily as a family.
In the end, Matteo just went and sat down with his brother and waited for their mother to come home.
…
At the Hayes residence.
Before Frederick did what he did, he actually knew that his son would eventually find out.
