Kent shot Brandon a worried glance, and then turned to Daniel. Daniel looked back at him, equally worried, not daring to make a peep.
All of a sudden, Brandon lost it and roared, "Find her now!"
"Mr. Crawley," Kent called out him anxiously, "Sophia's,"
He didn't dare to finish the sentence. Brandon paused, then his eyes suddenly reddened, and he asked in a hoarse voice, "She sneaked off again, didn’t she?"
He couldn't help but chuckle, saying, "She's always doing this, vanishing into thin air without even a heads-up."
Then he looked at Kent, "Kent, do me a solid and check it out, see where she's gone, which flight she took, which city she's in."
Kent exchanged a worried look with Daniel, and then hesitantly turned to Brandon, softly trying to reason with him, "Mr. Crawley, you haven't fully recovered yet; you should rest first."
From his perspective, Brandon was completely off his rocker right now. But Brandon lost it again, urging him angrily, "Aren't you gonna check?"
"Mr. Crawley, last night she," Kent had to remind him tearfully, "The police are still searching and trying to find her."
"She didn't!" Brandon countered fiercely with bloodshot eyes, "She didn't go to the construction site; her business trip was just a cover. She's been wanting to leave, just to start anew in a different city."
Kent didn't know whether to confront Brandon's self-deception. He'd rather believe that Sophia simply used the business trip as an excuse to leave Brandon, that she never really went to the construction site.
But the truth was, Sophia did go to the construction site last night, she was there, and that was where the accident happened.
Daniel's eyes brimmed with tears too, unsure of how to comfort Brandon when the latter coldly turned to him, "She didn't go to the site last night, right? The person who fell wasn't her, right?"
Daniel couldn't deny it and, choking up, he managed to say, "Brandon, she really was at the site last night."
"Bullshit!"
Brandon interrupted him with a roar, "You could never bear to see me and her having a good life together, just looking for a chance to stir up trouble. She never went to the site, she didn't!"
Daniel hesitated, and then looked at him, wanting to speak but afraid to set him off, so he turned to Kent for help.
