Chapter 282
Theo asked earnestly, “Who’s this Ms. Howard?”
Ellinor felt that Theo was missing the point and handed him the phone, “Answer it, don’t let anything go wrong!”
Theo looked at her deeply, then slowly put the phone to his ear.
After hearing the cry for help on the phone, Theo’s calm face suddenly turned tense. He stood up quickly and asked sternly. “Where are you? Okay, just stay there and don’t move, 171 be right there!”
After hanging up the phone, Theo hurriedly left but suddenly stopped to look at Ellinor…
Ellinor shrugged nonchalantly. “Go ahead, I’ll be fine on my own!”
Theo frowned in complexity, “Be good, I’ll be back soon!”
Upon saying this, he quickly left….
Ellinor stood there in a daze for a while, as if she could hear her mother’s voice from years ago at the hospital telling her. “Be good; Mommy will be back soon!
And then, her mother never came back…
An hour passed
Ellinor finished her cake and watched some videos on her phone
Theo who said he’d be back soon still hadn’t returned.
Had something happened to him?
She didn’t even know where Patricia’s ward was.
Ellinor had slept too much during the day and couldn’t sleep now. She thought momentarily and got up from her bed to find that man.
She was residing in the VIP area of the hospital’s inpatient department, where each room was a separate high–end ward. It was quite peaceful, and most people were resting since it was already night
The hallway was empty, and Ellinor slowly walked towards the nurse’s station to ask about Ms. Howard’s ward…
Before she reached the nurses‘ station, she saw from a distance that police officers were checking the surveillance cameras.
The police seemed to have copied the needed surveillance content and left the nurse’s station. A doctor who looked higher ranked escorted the police to the elevator.
The police waved his hand, saying, “All right, no need to see me off. Thanks for your cooperation today”
The doctor also politely said, “It’s our duty! You guys are working late, you must be tired!”
“Eh, we’re serving the people!”
The police left.
Ellinor heard the nurses in the station discussing
