Unexpected Blessing After Divorce

Chapter 228 Heard It

Hailey was the first one who noticed Yuliana missing.

When Yuliana came out of school, she called Hailey, told her she was on the way, and asked Hailey to cook

spaghetti.

Hailey had already cooked the spaghetti. When she noticed that Yuliana had not come back yet, she called Yuliana

again to ask where she was.

Nonetheless, the first call was hung up after a while.

When Hailey called again, Yuliana’s phone was already turned off.

Hailey got worried and planned to go to school. She suddenly stopped when she was about to go out with her phone

and shoes on. The more Hailey thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.

It had been 20 minutes since Yuliana called her. Yuliana was supposed to have reached home as the journey. only

took ten minutes. Yuliana had a power bank, so it was impossible for her phone to be dead.

If Yuliana did not come back because she had something to do, she would tell Hailey instead of turning off her

phone.

Hailey panicked at the thought of this.

Yuliana had been pregnant for more than seven months. Hailey did not dare to think about if something bad had

happened to Yuliana.

Hailey thought for a while and immediately called Christopher, but no one answered the phone even though she

had called several times. Hailey was in a panic. Finally, she remembered she had saved Joyce’s phone number and

called Joyce.

At that time, Joyce was checking Alex’s homework, and her phone was on Alex’s desk.

When she heard her phone vibrate, Joyce glanced at the caller ID. It was an unknown number.

She gave some instructions to Alex, picked up her phone, and walked outside before she answered the call. Before

Joyce could speak, Hailey, on the other side of the phone, said anxiously, “Mrs. Solace, I’m Hailey. Something bad

seemed to happen to Yuliana.”

Joyce was stunned momentarily and hurriedly asked, “What do you mean by saying that something bad had

happened to her?”

Hailey took a deep breath to calm herself down, told Joyce what happened, and added, “Yuliana is very punctual. If

she’s coming home late, she will definitely send a message.”

Joyce was silent for a while and said calmly, “Hailey, go to Yuliana’s school first. Call me if anything happens.”

Hailey said, “Okay, I’ll go now,”

Hailey hung up the phone and hurried out.

On the other side, Joyce called Yuliana. As expected, Yuliana’s phone was already turned off.

Joyce did not waste her time waiting for Hailey’s message. She called Kendrick first, then Layla, and asked them to

find out where Yuliana was immediately. Then, Joyce waited for Hailey’s message anxiously.

Around ten minutes later, Hailey called Joyce back. She followed Yuliana’s way to the school but still could not find

Yuliana.

Basically, it was certain that something bad happened to Yuliana.

In Romdale,

At night, Christopher had dinner with some people from important departments involved in some follow-up matters

of the previous project.

“Mr. Solace, you’re so young and promising! I’ll toast you to this wine!* said Charlie Dawson, the department chief.

Christopher held the glass and clinked it with Charlie. He held his glass slightly lower than Charlie’s glass.

Christopher smiled and said, “Mr. Dawson, you must be kidding. I should toast you. I’ll drink this glass. Cheers.”

With that, Christopher drank it all up.

Another chief of the department, Julian Wright, came over and patted Christopher on the shoulder. “Mr. Solace,

you’re a good drinker. If you drink with Mr. Dawson, you have to drink with me, right?”

Christopher picked up the wine bottle on the table and poured it into his glass. He laughed and said, “Mr. Wright, I’ll

toast you to this glass. I look forward to working with you in the future.”

They clicked the glasses and drank the wine again.

Just then, the door of the private room was opened. A man in a black suit came in. He walked straight to

Christopher and said in a low voice, “Mr. Solace.”

Christopher was talking to Charlie Dawson when he heard someone calling him. He tilted his head and found that

the man was his driver.

“What’s wrong?” he asked.

The driver said, “Ms. Solace has something urgent to tell you. She called you, but you didn’t answer, so she called

me.”

Christopher was stunned and asked, “What’s the matter?”

The driver replied, “Ms. Solace didn’t say anything. She just asked you to call her back immediately.”

“All right. You can go now.”

The driver nodded and left the private room.

Christopher told Charlie Dawson he had a phone call to make and took out his phone from the coat pocket on the

back of the chair. There were more than 20 missed calls, including those from Layla, Joyce, and Hailey.

Within 20 minutes, Hailey called Christopher a dozen times.

It was not surprising for Layla and Joyce to call him, but it was unusual for Hailey to call him so many times at this

time.

Christopher almost figured out what urgent thing Layla was talking about.

It was too noisy in the private room. He just felt a buzzing sound in his ear, and he could not hear what the others

were talking about. Christopher did not even greet anyone before he picked up his phone and went straight out of

the private room. Then, he immediately called Layla.

When Christopher dialed, Layla’s phone was busy.

He did not hang up but waited anxiously for Layla to answer the phone.

Every second was extraordinarily long.

Finally, Layla answered the phone. Before Christopher could ask, she went straight to the point and said,

“Christopher, Yuliana is missing. I’ve asked someone to buy a flight ticket for you. The flight is 10:30 p.m., and you

can go to the airport now. We can talk about other things later when you come back.”

Even though Christopher was mentally prepared, he was still in a daze when he heard Yuliana was missing.

Christopher rubbed his face and quickly came back to his senses. His voice was tight. “How long has she been

missing?”

Layla said, “At 8:30 p.m., she called Hailey for about half an hour at most. Ten minutes ago, Kendrick contacted

someone to confirm Yuliana’s whereabouts. I think we’ll hear from her soon.”

After a pause, Layla comforted Christopher, “Don’t worry too much. Yuliana will be fine.”

It was not difficult for the Solace family to find someone in Juxshire with their ability.

The most important thing now was to not waste time. Yuliana would be in more danger with every second that

passed.

Christopher was silent for a moment before he said, “I’ll be right back. Tell me if there’s any news about Ana.” Layla

replied. “I’ve got a phone call. I think it’s about Yuliana. I’ll hang up first.”

Then, she hung up the phone.

Christopher returned to the private room and told Cameron about what had happened. He greeted the chiefs,

picked up the coat on the chair, and rushed to the airport.

It was the police who called Layla.

According to the signal from Yuliana’s phone, it can be determined that she was going south, but the signal.

disappeared because her phone was turned off later. However, according to her phone’s signal, the sky eye, and

the surveillance camera, they could still determine where Yuliana was heading, but it would take some time to

figure out her whereabouts.

When she heard this, Layla was relieved. At least it proved that Yuliana was safe for now.

“Layla, any news about Yuliana?” Annabelle asked.

Layla was in deep thought when the call finished. She did not even notice Annabelle showed up behind her.

When she heard Annabelle’s voice, Layla came back to her senses. She turned to look at Annabelle behind. her.

She asked, “Did you hear it?”
