Chapter 1174
Her IV drip had been removed.
Where was she?
“Carol.” rk burst out of the room, immediately rushing to ask the nurse on that floor, ‘Where did the

patient in bed 308 go?"
“I have no idea."
Carol had already been out of danger sincest night, shifted from the ICU to a regr ward. It was the
early Morning shift change, and no nurse had noticed where she had gone.
rk was anxious, suddenly remembering what Carol had mentioned earlier. She''d said: Yesterday at
the ICU door.
Even though she hadn''t finished her sentence, rk had a bad feeling. She must have overheard his
conversation with his parents and decided to leave.
He frantically hit the elevator''s down button, but seeing it still stuck on the 21st floor, with no sign of
moving, he tan down the stairs, searching everywhere once he reached the ground floor.
“Carol.
People were everywhere, the falling snowkes as dense as feathers, obstructing his vision.
rk''s eyes turned red, and among the crowd, he couldn''t find his Carol.
Ignoring the biting cold wind that made his wounds ache, he pulled out his cell phone, repeatedly
dialing Carol''s number.
The automated voice just kept saying: I''m sorry, the number you have dialed is switched off.
She had turned off her phone.
She was missing again!
Tears started to fill rk''s eyes, this feeling was too simr to when she had disappeared before.
He was desperate, not knowing where to find her.
Would Carol go back to the Mystic Oak House to pack her things if she was leaving?
Thinking of this, rk rushed out of the hospital, nearly getting hit by a taxi. He opened the passenger
door, "Mystic Oak House, fast!"
The taxi driver looked puzzled, "Sorry, sir, there''s still a passenger in the backseat."
rk turned to see a women holding her feverish child, on their way to the hospital.
The young mother, startled by rk''s urgency and red eyes, quickly got out of the car with her child.
“Please step on it.” rk, suddenly recalling something, pulled out his phone again, calling the staff at
Mystic Oak House, "Has Carol returned?"
“Huh? Has she returned? I haven''t seen her." The housekeeper sensed something was off in rk''s
tone, quickly tesponding, “I might have been busy and didn''t notice. I''ll get some people to look
around."
The mansion was huge. If Carol wanted to avoid the staff, with her agility, it was entirely possible.
“If you see her, you must stop her."
"Yes."
After hanging up, rk urged the driver again, to which the driver responded helplessly, "I''m already
going as fast as I can""
Finally arriving at Mystic Oak House, rk dashed in, grabbing the first staff member he saw, "Has
Carol returned?"
“No, I''ve checked the surveince. She didn''te back."
"She''s not here."
rk rushed to the bedroom. Everything was as usual.
The mention of "surveince" by the staff reminded him of something he had overlooked in his panic!
He immediately essed the hospital''s surveince for that floor, discovering Carol had left by herself,
pushing open the fire escape door while he was out getting breakfast.
No one in the corridor had noticed her then.
