You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 1538

Chapter 1538

Inside the Villa.
Mag had awakened and was preparing breakfast ingredients.
Suddenly, the wine cabinet made a sharp "beep beep" sound, which seemed particularly abrupt in the silence of dawn.
Frightened, Mag fell to the ground, crying incessantly, "What's going on, the wine cabinet suddenly cried out."
She rushed out of the kitchen, but saw that the curtains in the villa were opening and closing, the lights were flashing on and off.
She was so frightened that her soul left her body. She kept murmuring, "It's haunted, it's haunted. I knew there was something wrong with this place. It must be a murder villa. I'm done, I'm going home, I won't make this money, it's too scary."
"Nonsense," Ford growled lowly. "There are no ghosts here, don't talk nonsense. It must be a system error. You stay here, I'll call someone in to check it out together."
In a short while, Ford called in the two black-clad bodyguards at the door.
Assigning tasks, "One person per floor, check carefully, no detail can be missed. See what exactly is the problem."
"Yes!" The black-clad bodyguards answered in unison.
Everyone quickly separated and began checking floor by floor.
At this moment, the "beep beep" sound of the wine cabinet suddenly stopped.
At the same time, the opening and closing curtains also stopped moving, and the lights returned to normal.
Ford said to Mag, "Don't make a fuss, you see, it was just an early morning system update that may have malfunctioned. It's okay now."
Mag let out a sigh of relief, "I don't know if the child was frightened."
She looked up at the second floor, "But it's still early, recently the child has been sleeping until noon. He shouldn't know, tell them to be quieter so as not to disturb the child."
Ford seemed to think of something, "I'll go take a look at him."
Mag grabbed him, "Quietly, take a look at the door, don't wake him up."
"Okay," Ford agreed.
He came to the door of the room where Anderson was staying on the second floor and gently turned the door handle.
When he opened the door, he saw someone curled up on the bed with the quilt pulled up. He thought the child must be asleep, sleeping with his head covered.
He turned to close the bedroom door and leave.
On second thought, sleeping with your head covered is not good for breathing.
He went back in again, walked to the bedside, reached out and pulled the quilt down, wanting Anderson's head to be exposed to fresh air.
Who knew that when he pulled down, what was revealed inside turned out to be a pillow.
Ford was startled and quickly pulled hard, throwing the whole quilt open. Inside the quilt were actually two pillows.
Anderson was gone!
His mind went blank for a moment.
It seemed that he suddenly understood something.
Could it be that Anderson had already escaped? How is that possible?
How did a four-year-old child escape from the villa under their heavy guard and watchful eyes?
Cold sweat broke out on his back. Just now there were malfunctions in the smart devices in the house, and he had called all the people into the house, resulting in no one guarding outside.
Would it be possible that Anderson was already outside?
Not in the villa at all?
Not good! Move the tiger away from the mountain!
If so, Anderson must have either escaped or left with the truck just now.
Ford's knees went weak and he nearly knelt down.
The task he was responsible for had such a big mistake. How was he going to explain this?
Somehow, his mind suddenly recalled the silver cross pendant that Anderson had shown him, which Ralph had given to Anderson in person. What was the special meaning of it?
He had always felt that he had seen it somewhere before, that it had something to do with his brother, but he couldn't remember where.
He and his brothers were all serving the warlords, and he hadn't seen his brother for years.
