"Dad, Mom, have you found Carol yet?" he asked urgently.
Cruz let out a weary sigh and shook his head. "Not yet." "You should rest for now," he added. "We'll let you know as soon as we find your sister." Myla, sitting beside the bed, gently adjusted Jeffery's blanket.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA sudden thought crossed her mind-something Carol had shouted back at the restaurant.
"Jeffery, did Carol not chlast night?" she asked, her brows furrowing.
She distinctly recalled Carol claiming she had been gone all night, and no one had even looked for her. Myla and Cruz had only arrived in Grester late last night, completely unaware of Carol's whereabouts before then.
Had something happened between Jeffery and Carol that they didn't know about? Jeffery's expression darkened. At this point, there was no use hiding the truth.
He let out a slow breath before briefly explaining how Carol had her bodyguards wreaked havoc in the jewelry shop and how, in a moment of fury, he had slapped her at the police station.
Myla's eyes widened in shock. "How could you act like your father? Yes, Carol made a mistake, but that doesn't mean you should have hit her!" Carol had already been slapped by both her father and brother in just two days. She must have been devastated. Jeffery's brows knitted in regret. "Mom, I know I was wrong. The moment I did it, I regretted it. Right now, I just want to find her and make sure she's safe." Cruz, however, scoffed dismissively, "Carol? In danger? Even if everyone in town were under threat, she'd still cout unscathed. If things don't go her way, she makes sure no one else has it easy either!" Jeffery opened his mouth to defend his sister, but Cruz cut him off.
"Don't even try. Look at yourself you're in this condition because of her! After pushing you, she didn't even stop to check if you were okay. She just ran off like it was nothing. Absolutely ridiculous." "That's enough, Cruz," Myla said, a hint of irritation in her tone.

Myla turned to Jeffery, her voice softening. "Don't worry about Cañol. We've already sent people to look for her. I'm sure she'll be back soon." Then, with a deep sigh, worry crept into her elegant features. "Right now, what matters most is your test results."
Jeffery waved it off. "Mom, it's nothing serious, just aminor injury. Don't dwell on what the doctor said." He offered a reassuring smile. "I'm healthy. There's no way I have a blood disorder." While they spoke, Linsey, who had been quietly sitting nearby, had carefully peeled an apple.
Without a word, she held it out to Jeffery. "Here. Have sfruit. Your lips are so dry they're cracking."
Jeffery raised an eyebrow, clearly surprised. He took the apple from her, studying her with curiosity, m "Linsey, what's gotten into you? First, you stay with my mom to look after me. Now you're peelingan apple? You used to never sparea kind word. Every twe met, you were either arguing withor trying to get under my skin."
