“All those things he did before were because he was deceived by Anne; they were never his true intentions.
“Now, he’s even willing to sacrifice his life for you. I think everything he’s done in the past can be forgiven.
“And as for Elliot, you’re mentor and student, but this is an open–minded society now. There’s no need to get caught up on that.
“That kid genuinely loves you. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have ended up like this after just a few words from you. I think you should seriously consider it–living together with both of them.”
“Are you out of your mind?” Suzy snapped, her irritation clear.
“Stop meddling in my life. If you have so much free time, why not buy a few parenting handbooks? That way, when your baby arrives, you won’t be completely clueless!”
“Boss, I-”
Before Allen could finish, Suzy hung up on him.
Staring at the disconnected call, Allen muttered under his breath, “So old–fashioned. What’s wrong with one woman and two men? Why can’t it work?”
When Allen returned to the room, he froze. The bed was empty–Elliot was gone.
After searching the entire hospital with no sign of him, Allen panicked. “This is bad. If the boss finds out, she’s definitely going to kill me!”
He quickly rallied the hospital staff. “All of you, start looking! Search every corner of this hospital. Turn it upside down if you have to but find Elliot!”
Despite mobilizing nearly everyone, there was still no trace of him. It was as if he had vanished into thin air.
Nervously, Allen had no choice but to call Suzy.
“You’re not going to start spouting nonsense again, are you?” Suzy asked, already bracing for another ridiculous argument about two men and one woman.
She couldn’t fathom where he’d even gotten such an absurd idea. Did she come across as that desperate?
“No, boss, it’s not that,” Allen said, his voice uncharacteristically serious.
“What I’m about to tell you might be hard to accept, but I need you to stay calm…”
Hearing his tone, Suzy’s expression hardened. “Did something happen to Elliot?”
“Yes,” Allen admitted reluctantly.
“After I hung up with you and went back to the room, he was gone. He should’ve still been asleep, but he wasn’t there. I searched the entire hospital, but I couldn’t find him anywhere.”
“Allen, have I not made it clear enough? You were not to let him out of your sight!” Suzy’s voice was sharp, her frustration impossible to hide.
“I know! I thought he was asleep, so I figured it’d be fine to step away for a quick call. I never expected him to disappear in just a few minutes.” Allen’s tone was heavy with regret.
“Where did you go to make the call?”

“The rooftop…”
“And you couldn’t have made it outside his room?”
“I was worried he might wake up and overhear,” Allen tried to explain.
“He’s forgotten you, and hearing anything about you might have upset him, so…”
“So, you decided to waste time on pointless chatter instead of focusing on keeping him safe!” Suzy snapped, barely containing her anger.
“Don’t you realize the person trying to harm him has been watching us all along? They’ve likely been waiting for this opportunity. And now, they’ve succeeded. Elliot is in real danger!”
“Boss, I didn’t mean for this to happen…” Allen’s voice was filled with guilt.
“Enough! Apologies won’t help now. Just focus on finding him!”
Before Suzy could fully process the situation, another call came through.
And it wasn’t about Elliot–it was about Dylan. Something had happened to him as
with guilt.
“Enough! Apologies won’t help now. Just focus on finding him!”
Before Suzy could fully process the situation, another call came through.
And it wasn’t about Elliot–it was about Dylan. Something had happened to him as well.
