Chapter 203 Where Is She?
Hearing her son’s footsteps fading away, Jennifer couldn’t help but feel a pang of disappointment on the inside. In that instant, she felt herself surrounded by a cold and chilly aura as she sat still on the couch, unable to move a muscle. It was only after Stanley left that Jennifer slowly opened her eyes when silence was finally restored. Then, the first thing that came to view was the obvious crack on the wooden table, as well as the bloodstains around it. At the sight of that, she couldn’t help but feel a sting of pain inside of her.
“Mr. Fox is hurt… Stephanie spoke with a shaking voice, still shuddering at what she had seen earlier. She then shifted her attention to Jennifer, noticing the tears that were rolling in her eyes. Shortly after that, the older lady rose from her seat and headed upstairs.
Meanwhile, Max was already on his way to the airport and bus stations to find out more about Melinda’s whereabouts. After reviewing the security footage of Melinda leaving Emerald Harbor, they began to deploy a thorough search for her.
At the same time, Stanley, who just drove away from Repulse Bay, was driving recklessly, as his heart was overwhelmed with pain and sadness. After all, he couldn’t stop thinking about the memories they had together, as if he could hear her voice right next to his ear.
I want you to treat Samuel and Pamela well, even if you have some other kids in the future.
Does that mean you have plans for a third child?
Yes, I promise you.
No matter how many kids we have, I will never neglect Samuel and Pamelanovelxo.com fast update. I swear I will make it up to them for the times we missed out on in the last seven years.
Soon, Stanley couldn’t help but recall the sweet smile on Melinda’s face, finding it somewhat seductive yet sympathetic. Nonetheless, the more he thought about that, the more pain he found himself in. She must have been planning all the time to leave. This is no pure coincidence. How could I have overlooked those signs?! Damn it! What a jerk I am! Stanley held the steering wheel tightly and stepped on the gas pedal with all his strength, regretting his negligence and carelessness. A few moments later, his rationality started to get the better of his emotions as he reached for his phone and called Jessica, whom he thought might know where Melinda was. Although he believed Melinda might have also said goodbye to Jessica, he did his best not to get his hopes up.
Nevertheless, Stanley’s call went unanswered after three attempts. Eventually, he pulled up right outside the Skarsgard Residence, pulling the emergency brake before he unfastened his seatbelt and stepped out of the car to press the doorbell. Then, Jessica came out to answer the door and was seen to be in her thin pajamas since she was home alone. It turned out that her parents were away on an overseas trip while the maids were given a few days off. Because of that, she decided to wear a pair of thin pajamas at home after a shower.
When Jessica saw Stanley standing outside the door, she was stunned. Then, when her eyes shifted to his bleeding hand, her heart skipped a beat, and her eyes widened in horror. “Were you… in a fight or something?”
“Do you know where Melinda is?” Stanley asked in a hoarse voice, his eyes filled with helplessness. NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
“Did you guys have a quarrel or something? Maybe that was why she left or something.” Jessica knitted her eyebrows, closing the door as soon as she finished her words.
Nonetheless, Stanley quickly placed his fingers on the door frame shortly before he moaned in pain, shocking Jessica as she opened the door once again. “What did you do to her?” Jessica angrily questioned. the man. “You drove her away, didn’t you?”
With his bleeding hand still on the doorframe, Stanley looked at Jessica and patiently asked, “Do you know where she is now?” The man sounded like a robot with no emotions, unlike his usual self. Thus, Jessica couldn’t help but feel a little scared when she was talking to Stanley.
Soon, Jessica reached for her phone and gave Melinda a call, only to hear a recorded voice that said that the number no longer existed. It was only then that she realized how serious the situation had become. Thus, she glared at Stanley with an indifferent look on her face and asked, “What happened?!”
The moment Stanley heard that, his blood turned cold. “I’m sorry for the disturbance then.” Staring blankly ahead of himself, Stanley walked away like a mindless creature without a soul.
“What about Samuel and Pamela?” Jessica seized Stanley’s arm, making him stop in his tracks. “What about the children? Did she take them away with her?”
“No, she didn’t. Stanley met the lady’s gaze with his soulless eyes.
Jessica heaved a sigh of relief and replied, “Then, she will be back.”
“Will she?” Stanley acted as if he just saw hope again.
“Yes, she will.” Jessica was convinced. “No mother would ever leave her children behind like that.”
