Please Give Me Another Chance, Mrs. Hamilton novel Chapter 297

The call was from Lynn. Her high-pitched voice quivered, piercing the night's silence.

"Is this Mr. Hamilton? This is Lynn, Ms. Sawyer's caretaker."

Brad's sleepiness was gone when he received the call. He asked sternly, "What's going on?"

He honestly didn't like the caretaker much. He found her overly eager, which made him suspicious. Her enthusiasm seemed insincere, and he was irritated to receive her call at this hour.

Lynn continued, her voice shaky as she sobbed, "Mr. Hamilton, something terrible has happened! Ms. Sawyer is missing! I've searched the entire hospital, but she's nowhere to be found. Mr. Hamilton, I didn't mean to disturb your rest, but I've looked everywhere and I'm so worried about her."

The night was quiet, with only the soft sound of rain falling. Even though Nadine had turned her back to Brad, she clearly heard the anxious tone in Lynn's voice. Her drowsiness vanished instantly, replaced by the troubling question of whether Brad would really leave the house in this cold weather.

Brad hesitated briefly, then got out of bed with his phone. Nadine heard the faint creak of the door as he left the room.

Though she didn't catch his response, she was fully awake now.

In the darkness, she opened her eyes and stared into the pitch-black night.

She was waiting, or rather expecting, to hear the sound of Brad's footsteps as he left. Soon, she heard the engine start and the tires crunching over the wet ground.

Lying in bed, she listened to the sounds outside with a cold expression. The light in her eyes slowly faded, leaving only a sense of emptiness.
