Chapter 292 Analise Went Missing
Abigail had not expected that Sean had known about Analise’s whereabouts.
She lifted her head slightly and looked at Sean.
Sean seemed visibly anxious. He gripped her wrist and confessed without hesitation, “I have known where Analise is all this time, but it was just because I was concerned about her well-being.
I planned to keep an eye on her without interfering in her life to ensure her safety. However,
something unexpected has happened. We need to go to Capitalis now.”
“Did Grandma go to Capitalis?” Abigail was promptly dragged out of the hospital.
Although he was in a rush, he was also mindful of her injury. So, his steps were much slower than usual.
“Yes. I don’t know why she went there,” he answered.
Her heart was on edge. “You seem so worried, Sean. Do you know that her trip could be dangerous?”
He glanced at her and replied, “No, it’s just that she’s getting old. Plus, she’s not exactly familiar with the place. It would be troublesome if she gets lost.”
Abigail didn’t say anything else.
Sean dropped her off at her apartment. Then, he made another call to Cameron while she was off packing her things. “How did you lose her in the first place?” Even though he was significantly calmer than before, his voice still carried an undertone of menace that sent shivers down the
spine.
Cameron wasted no time explaining, “Old Mrs. Quinn went to the restroom. When she came out, someone replaced her. The woman was wearing her clothes and bag. So, we assumed that was her. I was standing at a distance, and the individual had intentionally avoided showing her face. So, I didn’t notice anything amiss until it was too late. Plus, the replacement started acting strangely around the second-hour mark, avoiding us. That’s when our men got suspicious.”
“Quickly investigate this matter! If you can’t find her whereabouts within two hours, you’re fired! Also, bring my identification to the airport, Sean ordered harshly. Then, he hung up and immediately called his friends in the Capitalis.
On the other hand, Abigail was hobbling downstairs as fast as she could manage after stuffing her identification and a few sets of clothing into her backpack. Since it was summer, she was packing lighter than usual. Hence, she only needed a small backpack.
Then, he wasted no time driving straight to the airport the instant she hopped into his car. She was about to ask him something when his phone rang again. When he noticed that the caller ID
1/3
was displaying Colby’s name, Sean had no choice but to answer.
“What’s the matter?” Sean asked. His tone was considerably warmer.
“Your grandmother went for a walk yesterday and hasn’t returned yet. Is she with you?” Colby’s voice sounded worried.
“She’s not at my place. I’ll call and check,” Sean replied. Then, he ended the call before dialing Xavien’s number.
Abigail decided not to disturb him since his phone hadn’t ceased ringing ever since they left her home.
