Chapter 355
In the following days, Rosalynn was fully committed to perfecting the FreshBite project.
Ivy and Cory, one painting and the other coding, the family of three busied themselves with their own stuff without interfering with each other.
Until…
One day during lunch, Laura pushed open the door of Ivy’s painting studio to call her for lunch, only to find that Ivy was missing.
At first, Laura thought Ivy was probably playing in some corner of the house.
It was only after she searched the whole house and couldn’t find Ivy that she gradually realized the seriousness of the situation.
She immediately called Calvin, who, upon learning that Ivy was missing, quickly accessed the surveillance system in their home.
After seeing the footage, they were almost scared to death.
The surveillance showed that Ivy went to the park at 7:30 that day and returned at 8:40. Twenty minutes later, she changed her clothes, put on a little hat, and carried her favorite little bag out the back door.
“Oh my God! Oh my God! Ivy’s been gone for three hours!!” Laura was on the verge of going crazy.
Even the usually stoic Calvin was anxiously blushing.
He immediately called Rosalynn.
Unfortunately, at this time, Rosalynn’s team was in a closed-door meeting with all their phones on silent.
“What’s going on?”
At this moment, Cory heard the noise and came downstairs.
Laura’s face was streaked with snot and tears as she turned to Cory, her voice trembling with sobs. “Ivy has run away from home!”
As she spoke, Laura’s tears intensified, flowing freely down her cheeks.
“It’s all my fault! Ivy specifically told me not to go near the painting studio, and I neglected to check on her for three whole hours!! How could I be so foolish?”
Cory’s brow furrowed, his displeasure evident as he responded, “Do you think crying will solve anything?”
“Don’t worry, I’ll increase manpower right now and search everywhere!” Calvin said seriously.
Ivy had managed to get lost even with him at home!
It was simply…
A stain on his professional career.
Three hours… So much could’ve happened.
