Chapter 1545
Chapter 1545
Damn it! How am I supposed to explain this to Mr. Atherton?
If only she had known better than to step outside for a phone call. She should have always stayed by the mother
and daughter's side.
Speak of the devil...
Before Sonia could even locate Joanne, Edwin came racing to the hospital. His face, usually so playful and carefree,
had turned blue with worry and fear. The veins on his forehead bulged with tension.
When he arrived at the ward, he found only empty rooms.
"Where is everyone?" he asked.
Sonia hung her head in shame. "I... I came back from my phone call and found that Mrs. Atherton and her daughter
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwere gone. The nurse said they had been discharged."
"Discharged?" Edwin fumed. "I told you to protect them around the clock! The billboard nearly smashed them, and
you let them leave the hospital?"
A wave of oppression washed over Sonia, and she felt even more guilty. 'Til go find them right away."
"Wait."
Edwin called out to her before she could leave.
"Is there anything else you need?" Sonia asked, trembling.
Edwin's deep eyes narrowed like a cheetah on the hunt.
"Tell me everything that happened today."
It made no sense for Joanne to suddenly leave with Tail for no reason.
Even if Tail's fever had just subsided, and even if they ignored the incident with the falling billboard, she should have
kept Tail in the hospital for at least two more days.
They couldn't have left without telling him.
There had to be another explanation.
Joanne had taken Tail to Jack's car.
After she ended the phone call with Harry earlier, Ada had called to say she was out of the police station and
wanted to know how Tail was doing.
Perhaps out of fear that Harry would try to harm her daughter again, Joanne didn't hesitate to take Tail out of the
hospital.
Ada caught a glimpse of her face, thinking that Joanne was worried about Tail.
"Don't worry. Even if it costs me my life, I won't let anyone from the Atherton family hurt her again!" Jack assured
Joanne.
"It's not that easy. I had already seen what they were capable of four years ago. They were no joke," said Joanne.
Even she, who had been Edwin's wife back then, could not escape it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAnd Tail was just a kid.
If Harry lost his mind, he could even turn his back on his family.
He only acknowledged influential ladies and their backgrounds.
In the driver's seat, Jack rarely saw this panicked side of her.
In his impression, Joanne had always been indomitable.
But now she was really scared.
Unable to bear the sight, he extended a hand to hold Joanne.
"Jo, my words always count. You can leave Tail with me. It will make my courtship easier."
His deep voice reached her ears.
Joanne looked up and met his serious gaze.
While the chaos and wretchedness persisted, Jack and Ada had been there for her.
"Didn't you mind that I'm divorced?"
"I did, but to have a ready daughter as cute as Tail isn't that bad. I've thought about it and decided to accept it."
