A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 168 I Broke The Rules Because Of You

Finally, David stepped into the room quietly, his heart beating fast. He held his breath and looked at the bed--

No one was there.

"Rita?" David called her again and again. He ran to the balcony, then to the bathroom, but Rita was nowhere to be found, nor was the baby. "Hello? Is anyone here? Doctor! Where is she? Rita, the woman who just gave birth here? !"

The doctors and nurses on duty that night approached David, seeing him looking distressed. No sign of Rita and her baby, they all exchanged puzzled looks. "They...they were here. Not too long ago. Maybe they are taking a walk outside..."

"A walk? Are you kidding me? She just delivered a baby!" David almost shouted.

"Sir, please..." It was already terrible enough for the hospital to have a missing patient and her baby, not to say the now, missing patient was connected to a high profile family. Everyone in the room stood still without saying a word.

"Why are you all standing there? Go and find her!" David roared at them. "Or I will tear down this pathetic hospital!

You don't want to get into any trouble, do you?" He knocked over a few folders from a nurse's hand.

The hospital sent out as many staff members as they could to find Rita. They searched the entire hospital, but no one could find her. Even surveillance cameras could not help. She just disappeared.

"Tell me, who brought her here?" David suddenly asked, grabbing the collar of a doctor. He was on the edge of an emotional outburst.

"It was a Mr. Gu and a Ms. Bai. I remember. They came together. Maybe...Maybe they took her with them when they left." The doctor was glad that he was able to think of this possibility. There was a big chance that David would throw him against the wall if he did not provide an answer.

'Mr. Gu and Ms. Bai?

Wasn't that Jacob and Emily?'

David did miss a phone call from Jacob. 'They took Rita? If that was the case then it would make sense.'

David left the hospital immediately. He drove to Tyrone Mansion as fast as he could. While on the wheel, he scrolled down to Jacob's number and pressed dial.

"Jacob! Get your ass downstairs, now!" David shouted into the phone.

"I am busy. Don't bother me," said Jacob and hung up immediately.

Unbelievable! David was white with rage.

How could Jacob block him off at this critical time?

If Jacob didn't open the door, he would have to break into the house.

Inside the mansion, Jacob and Emily sat face to face in the silence. They looked at each other, but neither said a word.

"Sir, Mr. Xu is here. We tried stop him..." A guard reported from the outside.

"Let him in." Jacob walked downstairs with Emily, his hand around her waist. David was in the hall pacing back and forth.

"Is Rita and her baby here?" David asked as soon as he saw the couple.

"Rita and the baby?" Emily looked surprised. "Aren't they in the hospital? What happened?"

David looked at her in disbelief, trying to figure out if she was telling the truth. "Rita and the baby are missing. We couldn't find them anywhere in the hospital."

"What? How could that happen? Where could they have gone? They were still there when we left!" Emily was worried,"Did you search the hospital?"

David was convinced that Emily had something to do with Rita going missing, but now he wasn't so sure. "Didn't you hear what I just said? We searched every corner of the hospital! You sent her there. Why did you leave her alone?"

David said with a blaming tone. Jacob sneered and replied,"Your girl, your baby, and you want us to watch them for you? Where were you then?"

"I was in the middle of something..." David didn't know Rita was going to give birth.

"In the middle of what? What is more important than Rita giving birth to your baby?" Emily replied, getting annoyed that David was putting the blame on them.

"Emily and I rushed her to the hospital when she went into labor. Wasn't that enough? You want us to look after her day and night? What use are you as the child's father?" Jacob gave an icy cold look. "You didn't do anything but here you are, blaming us."

David calmed down a little. "I know. It's my fault. But I have to find them now. You really have no idea where they might be?"

"No, I am sorry." Emily shook her head.

Jacob looked at David with an indifferent face. "You should go to your enemies instead of yelling around like a lunatic here in my house."

David eventually cooled down. "I know. I am sorry."

Jacob continued,"I will send someone to help you find her."

David raised his head. He had never thought that Jacob would offer help. But it was better than nothing, not to say Jacob's men were much faster. "Good. Thank you."

David was more worried now after hearing what Jacob had said. He cleared his head and quickly gathered all his resources in Jingshi City to find Rita and the baby.

Emily was relieved when David left. "Don't you think we went a bit too far?"

Jacob smiled at her,"You're the one who asked me to lie. You should feel bad, not me."

"Well, that's true..." Emily bit her lips. "He did believe us, though. Why?"

"Because he doesn't really doubt me." Jacob replied.

"But why?"

"He knows that I'm too bored to lie. That's not what excites me."

Emily prodded no further. "Fine."

"Speaking of which, I did lie to my friend today thanks to you." Jacob held Emily's face and gently pinched her nose. "I want my reward."All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

Emily was so familiar with this tone. She climbed two steps on the stairs, higher than Jacob and kissed him from above. This always worked.

But Jacob wasn't that easy to please this time. "You think only one kiss is enough?" He asked with a evil smile,"Who do you think I am?"

Jacob suddenly bent down and carried Emily on the shoulder, then he carried her toward the bedroom while Emily fought against his strong arms.

"Let me down... hmm..."

Jacob threw her on the bed and climbed on her, pushing her against the sheets and kissed her fiercely. 'My sweet girl, Don't try to get away from me...'
