Chapter 281
Yuliana wiped her face and was about to continue the search when she heard a creak. The door of the exit
passageway opened, and a familiar figure walked toward her.
She stopped and looked at him in a daze.
“Why didn’t you answer the phone?” Christopher stopped at the door of the exit passageway, and there was a
distance of around 6.5 feet between them.
When he arrived, he called Yuliana, but she didn’t answer. He only knew Yuliana was at the exit passageway after
he met Kylie, the maternity matron, outside.
Yuliana opened her mouth and wanted to explain, but she couldn’t find a proper reason. When her phone rang just
now, she just did not feel like answering it.
“I’m sorry,” Yuliana apologized to Christopher.
She mused,
I’m sorry I didn’t take good care of Roe and let him get kidnapped before my eyes.>
“I’m so sorry!” Yuliana lowered her head and kept apologizing.
Christopher couldn’t see her expression. He only saw her wrapping her arms around herself with her fingers
clasping tightly to her arms. Her thin shoulders were trembling.
He stepped forward and squatted down in front of Yuliana. Then, he held her in his arms. “If you don’t want to
answer the phone, ignore it. It’s not your fault our son is missing, so you don’t have to apologize.”
“It’s
my fault!” Yuliana retorted and grabbed Christopher’s clothes tightly. “If I hadn’t handed over Roe’s clothes to Kylie,
then Roe wouldn’t have gone missing.”
Yuliana’s heart was filled with self-remorse and regret. If she could go back in time, she would hold her son tightly
and not let go for a moment. In this way, he would still be with her.

now.”
After suppressing her emotions for so long, Yuliana finally broke down at that
moment.
Christopher tightened his grip. At the same time, his chest slowly tightened along with Yuliana’s cries, as if his heart
was being crushed till he could not breathe. “Ana, I’ll find our son. Trust me.”
Yuliana suddenly raised her head from his arms and looked at him, her eyes filled with hope. “When and how long
will it take?”
Christopher was stunned by her eyes, which suddenly sparkled. He moved his lips, but he didn’t answer Yuliana’s
question.
Seeing that he didn’t say anything, the spark of hope in Yuliana’s eyes went out again.
She lowered her head and was silent for a while. Then, she quickly got hold of her emotions and got out of
Christopher’s arms. “I want to look around.”
Christopher swept away the sweaty hair on her face and said, “Why don’t you rest for a while?”
Yuliana was wearing a yellow dress, which was a commonly seen style. After she gave birth to Rowan, her fashion
taste seemed to have changed, and she would choose clothes with brighter and livelier colors.
When she went out in the morning, she was fresh and clean. Yet, her hair and skirt were all sweaty now, and her
face and lips were a little pale. She looked as if she was about to faint.
Yuliana’s gaze was firm and determined. “I don’t need to rest.”
After saying that, she stood up, holding to the handrail of the stairs. However, when she got up, she suddenly felt
dizzy. Yuliana held on to the railing tightly and closed her eyes, standing still with the fear of moving.
Christopher seemed to be talking to her, but she couldn’t hear him.
After ten seconds of dizziness, Yuliana slowly opened her eyes and saw Christopher holding her back and looking at
her anxiously.
Yuliana shook her head. “I’m all right. Let’s go find our son.”
She pushed Christopher’s hand away and hurried out of the exit passageway.
She had searched every corner of the community health center and was confident that Rowan was no longer there.
“If he’s not here, where should I find him?” she wondered.
Yuliana stood at the door and looked at the passing vehicles on the street. For the first time, she felt that Juxshire
was so big. She had no idea where to go to get Rowan back.
Christopher accompanied Yuliana to look around nearby aimlessly for a few hours. He even drove to a farther place
to look for another few hours. During the process, Yuliana didn’t speak. She did not even drink the water
Christopher gave her. At lunchtime, Christopher went to buy some food for her, but she didn’t touch it.
She wandered her gaze around and immediately rushed over when she saw a child about the size of Rowan.
Only at that moment did she seem to be alive.
At about three in the afternoon, the police called and told them about a discovery they found from the surveillance
video of the community health center. So they asked Christopher and Yuliana to go to the police station.
They rushed to the police station.
“Today, our men at the police station looked back and forth several times and finally found something off.” The
police officer in charge of this case pointed to the monitor and said, “Look at this man holding the child.”
age. He
The man on the screen was an ordinary middle-aged man in his thirties or forties. The surveillance video was
unclear, so one could not be sure of his was a little obese and was wearing a brown T-shirt with a pair of loose
shorts and a pair of slippers. He was holding a child in his arms when he swaggered out of the community health
center.
At first glance, it looked like there was nothing wrong with him. No one would feel suspicious about his outfit and

They could not see the face of the child in his arms clearly, but the clothes the child was wearing were different
from what Rowan was wearing today.
The police said, “We have looked at the surveillance video. No male workers wore that outfit to work at the
community health center in the morning. Besides, look at the nurse’s feet and the man’s calf.”
The nurse was wearing a pair of leather shoes, and it could be seen that the size of the leather shoes was too large,
which did not look like a woman’s feet. Moreover, the man who carried the child had a big belly, but his calves were
thin.
The time between the man leaving the community health center with the child. and Rowan going missing was less
than ten minutes.
After the police told them about the discovery, he asked them to go back first. As he had reported the case to his
superior, he gave them his word that the police would follow up on the case. Moreover, with the Solace family’s
influence in Juxshire, the police dared not delay it.
On the other hand, when Yuliana called Christopher and told him that Rowan was missing, Christopher also found
someone else to find out where Rowan was and track down the matter as soon as possible.
In fact, without needing to investigate, Christopher knew well who would hurt his son at this timing.
When they came out of the police station, the sky suddenly darkened.
A rainstorm was coming.
After the two got into the car, Christopher said, “It’s almost five o’clock. How about I send you home first, Ana?”
Yuliana looked at the sky quietly and said, “I don’t want to return. I want to keep
looking for Roe.”
She didn’t dare to let herself stop for a moment.
She feared Rowan would encounter something unexpected if she found him one second later. She would not dare
stop whenever she thought of that possibility, even if her body had reached the limit.
In the end, Yuliana couldn’t hold on. After she fell asleep, Christopher took her back to the Solace residence.
