Chapter: 1222
Isaac looked at her calmly. He understood her agitation and explained in a low voice, "She's been gone for two days. She could be anywhere within that time, especially given she planned this. We won't be able to locate her instantly. Rest assured, I'll hire the best private investigator in the world to help us track down this doctor. Mila, I know it's been tough for you, but it's no walk in the park for me either."
Hearing that, Camila was stunned.
He was right. The doctor had absconded with a well-laid plan. They weren't going to trace her without some effort.
Her anxiety was just overwhelming.
“I.
Isaac gently stroked her worn-out face, saying, “I've set everything in motion. We'll head back today. There's too much uncertainty here, and I worry about you. Besides, Joe is still back home. He needs his parents."
“But...”
"Trust me. Give me some time, and I promise to clarify everything." Isaac, aware of her concerns, constantly offered her soothing words.
Eventually, in a raspy voice, Camila nodded in agreement.
“Alright.”
Isaac took care of all arrangements. Following that, Josiah also returned with them. Josiah felt fortunate that Camila had returned, but he also expressed remorse for his misguided decision. "I'm sorry, I didn't know it would turn out like this."
“It's over."
Camila was too drained to cast blame.
Josiah instantly fell silent.
Camila wasn't in the best of states.
Throughout the long flight, Camila rested her head on Isaac's shoulder, her eyes shut.
She was half-asleep.
Isaac's hand gently massaged her shoulder. "Joe must be missing you terribly."
He tried to divert her attention.
"Yes," Camila responded.
Isaac's words worked. She began to think about Joe.
On landing, Wynter was there to pick them up from the airport.
Because Alick had become a vegetable and couldn't work anymore, Wynter was now managing the affairs back home.
Camila was wrapped in a thin blanket, and Isaac came out with her in his arms.
Upon witnessing this, Wynter's eyes flickered briefly. "The car is ready."
The voice sounded somewhat familiar to Camila. Glancing over, she recognized Wynter.
Wasn't she assigned to an overseas branch?
When was she back again?
