The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 2148

Yvette believed Nicole.

She really wanted to ask Nicole to investigate Sean, but she also knew very well that Sean was dangerous, so she did not want to involve Nicole in this.

What Yvette encountered was terrifying enough, so how could she drag her best friend into it?

She also thought about the old master’s warning. If Yvette told the police everything without any evidence, they would not be able to arrest Sean either.

What if that crazy man found out and came to look for trouble again? If that were the case, Yvette’s peaceful life would come to an end.

At that thought, Yvette calmed down.

“He’s just an old friend. Nicole, since I’m back, you don’t need to continue the investigation. How are you doing lately?”

Nicole breathed a sigh of relief.

“I’m fine. I was just so worried about your safety. Aunt Quimbey and Aunt Fiona were also worried sick when we lost contact with you. I helped to search for you but couldn’t find any clues. All of a sudden, Lance was hospitalized, and you disappeared, so how can we not be worried? Clayton wasn’t very familiar with the underground business in Atlanta, so he didn’t dare to get involved. I’m so glad you’re okay, Yvette.”

Nicole was downcast when she said this.

It was easy for Clayton to get involved, but that would disturb their peaceful life and ruin their family.

Nicole was constantly struggling about whether she should get involved and dared not make a decision.

Yvette understood Nicole’s dilemma and sighed.

“Nicole, stop thinking about it. I’m fine now, so don’t worry. It’s already so late, so you should sleep. We can talk tomorrow.”

“Okay.”

Yvette hung up the phone.

She saw her mother’s tired face and felt guilty.

In addition to the guilt, she also hated Sean even more.

If it were not for him, Yvette would not end up like this.

“Mom, you should go upstairs and rest too.”

Mrs. Quimbey nodded.

She could not sleep well when Yvette was missing. Now that Yvette was home, Mrs. Quimbey was relieved.

“Do you want to contact the police? We’ve made a police report for so many days, so we should give them an explanation.”

Yvette pursed her lips and thought about it.

“I’ll call them tomorrow. I want to go upstairs and take a shower.”

“Okay, go on then.”

Mrs. Quimbey did not stop Yvette.

Yvette hugged her mother and went upstairs alone.

She sat quietly beside the bed in her familiar room.

Yvette getting to go home was a pleasant surprise after all that happened earlier that night.

But… What next?

Would Sean really let Yvette go?

Yvette went to the bathroom to take a shower.

She also slept for a while and got up before dawn.

Yvette left a note for her mother and went to the hospital.

She was really worried about Lance.

The sky was still mostly dark with a sliver of light on the horizon.

The air was chilly and humid.

Yvette went back to the same hospital and noticed there were a lot more bodyguards than the last time she was there.

Seeing this, she felt relieved.

The bodyguards recognized Yvette, so they let her through.

Yvette pushed the door into the ward and saw Fiona dozing off on the sofa.

Fiona stood up in surprise when she heard the movement.

“Yvette, why are you here so early?”

Yvette smiled, but she was distressed when she noticed that Fiona had lost weight.

She did not know how to explain to Fiona what happened during this time. Fortunately, Fiona did not force Yvette to speak and took Yvette’s hand to lead her to the hospital bed.

The medical instruments beeped rhythmically.
