Because she went to bed early, Rosalind woke up early the next day.
She woke up earlier than Ulric, which was rare.
Rosalind quietly propped herself up with her hand, staring intently at his sleeping face.
When he was asleep, he had less coldness and hostility. The messy hair added a touch of youthful feeling to him. Even though they had been away from school for so long, he still looked like an energetic young boy who would go to the playground with a basketball.
Rosalind subconsciously reached out to touch her phone, wanting to capture this moment.
But after searching under the pillow for a long time, she couldn’t find her phone.
She clearly remembered that she had put it under the pillow before going to sleep!
Rosalind lifted the pillow to search and still couldn’t find it.
The noise she made naturally woke Ulric.
When she looked at him again, she saw Ulric staring at her with his deep eyes.
“What are you looking for?” His voice was husky, and pleasant to hear.
“My phone is missing.”
Ulric didn’t say anything. He got out of bed.
As soon as he left, Rosalind realized that her phone was charging on the table.
Huh?
Last night… Did she charge her phone first and then go to sleep?
Rosalind slapped her forehead, unable to remember.
Forget it.
She thought that Ulric wouldn’t want to talk to her today. But as soon as Rosalind changed her clothes, she saw Ulric already showered, dressed neatly, waiting for her at the door.
“Let’s go.”
“Huh? Where are we going?”
“I promised Jake and Floyd that I would take them to the amusement park today.”
Rosalind blinked. She didn’t know about this.
“I’ll pick up the kids. Meet me downstairs at the hospital.”
Ulric didn’t even consider discussing it with her. He turned and left the ward.
She hesitated, recalling what Ulric said yesterday.
“After these last three days, I’ll let you go.”
It seems that Ulric has changed his plans from planning for the future to planning for these three days.
…
Tilda never expected that Johnny wouldn’t come back overnight.
He even turned off his phone!
She waited at home for a while, but as night fell and she still couldn’t reach him, she returned to the hospital parking lot, only to find his car was gone. It seemed he had left the hospital.
Initially, Tilda was very angry because this kind of disappearing without a word was truly annoying! But as time gradually passed, her anger transformed into fear. Countless thoughts surged through Tilda’s mind!
Could Johnny have been kidnapped because the sports car he was driving was too eye-catching? Or had he gotten into an accident on his way back to the company? Otherwise, why would Johnny not contact her?
After midnight passed, Tilda couldn’t sit still anymore, so she grabbed her phone and drove along the route between the hospital and W Group, checking with each police station she found.
“Hello, were there any car accidents on this stretch of road yesterday afternoon?”
“No! Are you looking for someone?”
“No, no, thank you!”
Tilda searched street by street but couldn’t find any useful clues. She thought about calling Johnny’s parents, but it was really too late… It wouldn’t be right to disturb them in the middle of the night.
