Chapter 307
William felt a surge of frustration the moment he heard those words. โWhat now?โ
โSomeone posing as a doctor got into the ward. They tried to kill Mrs. Lewis. Now theyโre gone, and so is she. Youโd better get over here right away.โ
William froze to the spot as if heโd been struck by lightning. He could hardly believe what Arsen had just said.
Someone had tried to kill Rachel, and now she was missing?
He snapped back to his senses, roughly shoved the crowd aside, and sprinted toward his car. The reporters and bystanders behind him scrambled to keep up.
โMr. Lewis! Mr. Lewis! Please explain whatโs going on!โ
William didnโt say a word. He jumped in the car, fired up the engine, and slammed his foot on the pedal.
A few reporters surrounded the window and pounded on it.
โMr. Lewis! Just give us a comment. Mr. Lewis!โ
But the car bolted forward like a wild horse, leaving everyone behind.
When William reached the hospital, he burst into Rachelโs room, only to find it completely empty.
His expression darkened instantly. The veins on his neck bulged as he turned to Arsen and yelled, โWhere is she?โ
Arsen flinched under the weight of his glare. โI donโt know. By the time I got here, she was already gone. There were only some scattered syringes on the floor. The doctors took them to run tests.โ
โCheck the security footage!โ William roared.
Arsen looked even more shaken. โThe cameras were disabled.โ
William clenched his jaw so hard his teeth nearly cracked. His eyes were bloodshot. โYouโre telling me someone vanished into thin air and you donโt have even a single lead?โ
Arsen hung his head in shame. โMr. Lewis, maybe we should call the police.โ
William glared at him. โYou want me to call the police? You think this mess isnโt big enough already?โ
Arsen instantly went quiet. He was too afraid to speak again.
Rachel was missing, and no one knew if she was dead or alive. Their only option was to call the police. Without reporting it, if something happened, that would be a life on their hands.
Still, William refused to go public.
With the scandal still escalating online, if news of Rachelโs disappearance broke, it would blow everything sky-high.
William paced the room like a caged animal. He was frantic and overwhelmed.
Then a thought struck him.
โMy mother. I told her to come stay with Rachel. Where is she?โ
Arsen replied quickly, โI already notified her.โ
Cassandra arrived shortly after with Samatha at her side. Cassandra seemed frazzled. โWilliam, whatโs going on? I heard Rachelโs missing. How could that happen?โ
William whirled around and snapped at her. โMom! Didnโt I tell you to come and stay with Rachel? What the hell were you doing?โ
Cassandra had never seen William lose it like that. She was stunned. โIโI was just planning to come a little later. How was I supposed to know this would happen? Besides, shouldnโt you be more optimistic? If sheโs missing, that must mean she woke up on her own. Why are you panicking?โ
โWoke up?โ William shouted. โDo you have any idea whatโs going on? Someone tried to kill her! They disguised themselves as a doctor, and now sheโs gone! No one knows where she is, or if sheโs even still alive!โ
William was like a man on a rampage. He was utterly restless.
If Rachel really had disappeared like this, how would he explain it to the Lloyd family?
The media was already out for blood. If news got out that Rachel had vanished under suspicious circumstances, the consequences for his company and the entire Lewis family would be catastrophic.
โWhat?โ Cassandra was equally shocked by the fact that somebody tried to take Rachelโs life.
