Chapter 247: Chapter 247: Blinded by Beauty! (1)
The assistant said, "Sorry, Master Foster left a week ago due to some matters, and he didn’t take any communication tools with him when he left."
Elias Hawthorne frowned, "Do you know where he went?"
The assistant shook his head, "No, Master Foster didn’t explain when he left."
Elias Hawthorne then called The Veridian Institute of Medicine, as well as Master Foster’s family, relatives, and friends, but shockingly, no one knew Master Foster’s whereabouts.
"How could this happen? What about Baby?" Old Mrs. Hawthorne was full of urgency.
"Mom, don’t worry." Mrs. Hawthorne held the teetering Old Mrs. Hawthorne gently to comfort her.
"Don’t worry? How can I not worry? I’m desperate to help my Baby!" Thinking of Baby being unconscious and hanging by a thread, Old Mrs. Hawthorne’s tears gushed out sorrowfully.
Claire North had the same look of anguish, but excitement was hidden deep within her eyes.
Truly, even the heavens are helping her!
"Grandma, you must trust me." Elias Hawthorne held a handkerchief to wipe Old Mrs. Hawthorne’s tears: "I’ve already arranged for people to search. Even if it means digging three feet underground, Master Foster must be found! We must extract information about Void from him."
Old Mrs. Hawthorne grasped Elias Hawthorne’s hand tightly, "Yes, Baby is relying entirely on you as the father."
Vincent Hawthorne was about to speak when a nurse’s urgent voice came from the emergency room: "Hey! How did you get in here? This is the emergency room, unauthorized personnel cannot enter casually."
Everyone was startled, Vincent Hawthorne was the first to rush in, and the others could not hold back and followed inside.
Upon seeing Raina North inside the emergency room, Vincent Hawthorne immediately flared up, his tone doubting and pressing, "Raina? What are you doing in the emergency room? What are your intentions again?"
"I want to see Baby."
"Who are you? What right do you have to see Baby?" Vincent Hawthorne scolded harshly: "You’re nothing but a woman who married into the family as a substitute, and it’s already generous not to have kicked you out of The Hawthorne Family! Baby is the next heir to The Hawthorne Family, someone like you with such status has no right to approach him!"
Raina North furrowed her brows, her face darkened, and before she could speak, Elias Hawthorne stood before her.
Elias Hawthorne looked directly at his father, "Perhaps, you just didn’t remember what I said clearly again, I have said it, Raina is my wife and Baby’s rightful mother, in this family, she is the one most entitled to see Baby."
Raina North looked at Elias Hawthorne somewhat astonished, she didn’t expect he would protect her like this, protect her thoroughly.
She suddenly recalled that back when she was with Beau Shelby, Mrs. Shelby was also critical of her, but Beau Shelby remained silent every time, at most comforting her afterward, and even that would satisfy her greatly.
His son showed such disrespect, Vincent Hawthorne’s face immediately sank, shouting in anger, "Elias Hawthorne, I think you are blinded by beauty!"
Elias Hawthorne was about to speak, but Raina North walked out, "Thank you, Mr. Hawthorne, for the compliment."
Vincent Hawthorne angrily asked, "When did I compliment you?"
"Just now," Raina North smiled slightly, "you complimented my beauty."
"..." Vincent Hawthorne’s chest heaving violently, looking as if he was about to fall over.
Claire North quickly said, "Uncle, calm down, my sister always speaks so straightforwardly, please don’t take offense."
Mrs. Hawthorne also hurried over, warmly and gently comforting her husband.
Vincent Hawthorne’s face finally improved slightly, but still remained grim.
Claire North was internally ecstatic, but there was no trace of it on her face, she looked at Raina North with a particularly helpless expression, "Sister, I know you’ve gained a lot of confidence from winning the competition, so you feel capable of curing Baby. But these are really two separate matters. Please don’t add any more chaos.
