Chapter 129 He Was Crazy
Deborah leaned into Joseph’s arms and let him carry her out.
She also forgot to consider whether there was anyone outside. She just couldn’t stop shaking and didn’t say a word.
It wasn’t until Joseph carried her into the elevator, and then went to the underground parking lot to get in the car,
that Deborah came back to her senses a bit.
Joseph got into the back seat of the car and put her down. Deborah asked weakly, “Where are the people in the
studio?”
n’t look
Joseph was visibly upset, and he didn’t look at her when he spoke.
“Bill called them to a meeting. I asked for leave for you. Let’s go to the hospital first.”
The more Deborah looked at Joseph, the more uneasy she felt. “What’s wrong with you? Was everything okay just now?”
Joseph looked sideways at her, and said in a very serious tone, “Debby, everything will be all right.”
Deborah stretched out her hand and caressed the center of his furrowed eyebrows. “Emotions are written on your
face. You have never been like this before. What on earth did Mr. Mullen…”
“It’s all right.” Joseph interrupted her, and his brows tightened uncontrollably again.
Deborah couldn’t help frowning along with him..
Joseph said again. “Stop mentioning that person. Don’t worry, he won’t bother you and the people in the design
studio again.”
Deborah instinctively felt that something must have happened. Joseph had always been extremely calm. So if something made him feel a bit overwhelmed even in front of her, it must be a big deal.
But she never pressed him for anything.
Joseph would take the initiative to tell Deborah most of the things.
Now that they had left the company, Joseph who stayed by her side had returned to his usual gentle appearance, and
Deborah felt that the discomfort had almost disappeared.
She looked at Joseph and said, “I feel better now. Why don’t you send me back to the company instead of going to the
hospital?”
But Joseph insisted and said, “I think we’d better go to the hospital. You still have a low-grade fever. And the doctor said that we must pay more attention to your health.”
What was more, Joseph was very worried that Ashton would come back for Deborah again if he sent Deborah back to the company at this time.
After all, the car stopped outside the hospital, and Joseph took Deborah into the clinic building.
Lucien was here for a consultation today, so Joseph went to him directly.
Deborah still looked pale. After Lucien checked her in the ward, Lucien called Joseph out.
“What’s going on? Is she sick with a cold or is she irritated?”
Josephi frowned and said in a low voice, “Ashton went to the company for her.”
Lucken was taken aback and asked, “What? Didn’t Ashton just come to Oceanview City! It is said that he just came here for business How can he Hud out where Deborah is?”

Lucien responded, “For the time being, there is nothing wrong with her Joseph, this is not a trivial matter. What are

make trouble for you,
“No, don’t worry about it” Joseph interrupted him, turned around, and went back to the ward directly.
At the office on the top Hoor of the branch the Muller
in Oceanview City
Ashton sat at his desk, scanning news on his obile phone
In front of him, across the desk stood a high level executive reporting work
Ashton listened, thinking about how to find Deborah
He felt that he might really be crazy, and he had delusions many times over the years.
Many times, Ashton felt that he saw Deborah and heard her voice, so he frantically went to her.
But every time he came up empty.
Ashton knew very well that this time it would be the same in all likelih
But he still couldn’t help looking for her. Only at this time, with expectations, would he feel better.
Just thinking that Deborah might still be alive and that she was still somewhere, he could feel his heart beating like at drum, feeling that he was still alive rather than being a living corpse.
At this time, Jeff called Ashton, “Mr. Mullen, we are not very familiar with Oceanview City. It is said that surveillance is
related to privacy and is not allowed to be shown to others.
“But it is also possible that Joseph said something so that we barely have access to surveillance anywhere.”
Jett paused for a moment and then continued, “However, there is someone who may be able to help. Do you still remember Rebecca, the granddaughter of Mrs. Donna Moxley?”
Ashton looked at the executive standing in front of him and said, “Stop here, we’ll continue later. You go out first.”
The executive immediately put away the document, nodded, and backed out.
Only then did Ashton reply to Jett, “Say it, and make a long story short.”
Jett had already arrived outside the office. He hung up the phone and walked in. “Mr. Mullen, it was Miss Rebecca Moxley who got the news that you came to Oceanview City to look for someone.
