Chapter 1157
Sally then rushed to the inpatient department and found out from the nurse that Cooper had gone to check the
surveillance footage.
It turned out that shortly after Sally left the inpatient department, Amanda left the ward. However, she took the
stairs instead of the elevator.
Besides, Amanda's GPS watch was dumped in the corridor on the fifth floor.
Meanwhile, Cooper went through all the surveillance footage from over twenty surveillance cameras, yet Amanda
was still nowhere to be seen.
At that point, Cooper was getting worried. Right then, Sally arrived, so he put on a cold expression as he
reprimanded, “I told you to watch Mandy, didn't I? Why did you leave her alone in the ward?”
In response, Sally said, “I wanted her to keep General Zeigler company—”
“Why couldn't you just stay outside the ward?” Cooper interrupted her speech. He was so angry that the veins on
his neck were bulging. “If you can't even watch a child, what are you good for? Warming my bed?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThose words hurt Sally like salt in a wound, and her expression turned grim on the spot.
Just then, someone rushed over and shoved Cooper aside rudely. “How is this Sally's fault? That child ran away on
her own, no?
Why aren't you blaming the child for roaming around alone?”
Stefan was shielding Sally as he glared at Cooper. “I dare you to scold Sally once more!”
Upon hearing that, Cooper shot Stefan a vicious look.
Sally didn't expect Stefan to show up, but when she saw that Cooper was clenching his fists, she was afraid that he
could end up beating her brother up. Therefore, she pulled Stefan to the side and ordered softly, “Wait for me
downstairs.”
“Sally, why did he have to scold you?” Stefan gritted his teeth in anger. “It's not like that child is yours—■”
“Shut up, Stefan!” Sally scolded.
Seeing that Sally was angry, Stefan fell silent, though his expression remained dark.
Suddenly, Cooper seemed to have understood something when he saw the medicine bag that was dropped on the
ground. “You can't watch a child, but you sure can take good care of your brother,” he sneered.
“I don't need you to search for Mandy anymore! Bring your brother along with you and get lost!” Cooper shouted
and left.
Sally then picked up the medicine bag and gave it to Stefan. “I can't look after you now. Go back to school.”
Stefan wanted to say something in response, but Sally had already turned around and left. While watching her
leave in a hurry, he clenched his jaw. His expression was gloomy.
Sally went out to search both inside and outside of the inpatient department, but she still couldn't find Amanda.
A bad feeling grew in her heart when she found out that Cooper was still unable to locate Amanda. I shouldn't have
attended to Stefan and left Mandy alone in the ward.
With that thought, Sally wanted to check the outpatient department. When she was on her way out, she vaguely
heard the nurses passing by, grumbling about how there was a new batch of medicine arriving, but the freight
elevator was out of service.
Sally immediately halted in her tracks and asked the nurses for the location of the freight elevator.
Apparently, the freight elevator was next to the emergency exit on the first floor. It was built right next to a small
door to make things more convenient for the suppliers to deliver supplies.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, the freight elevator was only used by the medical staff, so no one bothered to put up a notice outside it.
Sally then followed the nurses to the elevator operating room and quickly found out which floor the elevator
stopped on by looking at the cables. After that, she went to fetch some tools to pry open the elevator door bit by
bit.
Soon, Cooper arrived at the scene as well.
When the elevator door was pried open slightly, Cooper could see a tiny figure lying flat in the elevator.
“Mandy!” Cooper shouted and helped pry the elevator door open.
The moment the door was opened, he rushed inside.
Due to the fact that the elevator was an enclosed space, there was barely any air circulation in there. Amanda had
been stuck inside for a long while, so she was completely drenched in sweat.
Needless to say, seeing Amanda unconscious broke Cooper's heart. He quickly lifted her into his arms and rushed
her to the emergency department.
The medical staff then brought Amanda into the emergency room to give her treatment.
Cooper was staring at the door of the emergency room, his hands trembling violently. As the seconds went by, the
uneasy feeling in his heart grew. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't seem to calm himself down.
