Chapter 112 Just in Time

Lola got up and went out without even saying a word to Alivia.

The noble lady naturally followed behind.

Then the door to the ward was closed.

After they left, the atmosphere became weirdly quiet.

Athena didn't give Byron a look.

She picked up the unfinished book of the afternoon. "Mrs. Alivia Crawford, shall I continue to read?"

"Okay." Alivia nodded.

She looked at Athena lovingly.

She also had a daughter.

Unfortunately, when the baby was born, the world was in turmoil.

Alivia tried to protect her sister's children, but her daughter died.

Now her sister's children depended on her to survive and live a life of luxury and well-fed food, but after she fell ill, they never came to visit.

Byron sat there, quietly watching Athena reading.

The light of a small lamp shone on her, making her look tender.

He used to have all her tenderness.

Byron felt a little anxious.

He also thought of what Alivia told Athena just now, that she would find a better man for Athena to marry.

Byron began to worry.

"Will she marry someone else?" He thought.

Immediately, he denied it.

Byron thought,"Impossible. Even if I keep her locked up for the rest of her life and she'll hate me forever, I'll never let her marry someone else!" Athena twisted her long hair back behind her ears.

Byron's gaze fell on her ear where he had just placed the mark.

That was the mark.

It belonged to him.

Hours passed.

The complaints outside the door grew louder.

It was getting darker and darker.

Liam finally came back.

And Athena had put Alivia to sleep.

After turning off the lights in the room, the nurse shifted with Athena.

The nurse looked at her gratefully. Athena patted her arm, and the two made eye contact.

Then, Athena left the ward with Byron.

"How's it going?" Karen asked with a loud voice.

"Mr. Crawford, we asked many people present, and they all said that they had seen the two kids. But we can't access the hospital surveillance. We've searched for them in the hospital and also ran through surveillance data from a couple of entrances and exits. First, for three days, no sign of those two kids coming in, and the people in the hospital did not know who their parents were. And, there was no video of the kids leaving the nursing home, and we didn't find them in the hospital."

Byron sneered, "That is to say, they just appear and disappear?"

Liam continued, "We're still working through the cars that came in and out today. We have three vehicles as suspects, but it's gonna take time to find them."

"That's all?" Lola snorted, "Byron, You went to a lot of trouble to get your secretary off, didn't you?"

"The food test of Mrs. Alivia Crawford's nurse also came out with results." Quinton came over with his mobile phone and said, "There are indeed drugs that cause gastrointestinal upset."

"It is also possible that Athena and the nurse colluded, or the nurse was bad, and someone paid her off." Karen shrieked, "I think we're gonna have to replace this nurse!"

Athena looked at Karen and said, "You are so anxious to pass the buck. You didn't do this, did you?"

Karen went furious. "Bullshit. We can't see the cameras, so to get away with it, you frame me, don't you?"

Before Athena could say anything.

Behind her came a gentle and smiling voice.

"Looks like I got here just in time?"

Athena turned her head.

She saw Jaxson, tall and burly, and elegant silver-haired Alivia walking towards her.
