Chapter: 626
It had been confiscated when she'd boarded the ship, and she had forgotten to retrieve it in her rush to take Joe to the hospital.

It was Willie who had returned it to her.

Camila grabbed her phone and answered the call.

On the other end of the Line, Rowena sounded anxious.

“Mila, you have to come home. I think there's something wrong with Joe."

“What happened?"

“I'm not sure, either, but he just had a convulsion. I have no idea what could have caused it. I've already called emergency services. You need to hurry."

"Okay," Camila said before hanging up.

“What is it?" Isaac asked.

A lot of things were going on at once, and Isaac still had to deal with his family's affairs. Camila thought it would be best not to mention Joe's situation and add more to Isaac's plate. "It's nothing. My mother was just asking what time I'd be home. I don't think we have much else to do here, so I told her I'm on my way." She flashed him a reassuring smile. "Go on and get back to your business. I'll be Leaving now."

“Would you Like me to continue investigating Aldrin?" Willie piped up. Camila considered it for a brief moment and said, “No, you can drop it."

Since Willie was unable to find anything substantial, that only meant that her half-brother was now on high alert. Either that, or Aldrin was innocent, after all.

If the first case was true, then they would Likely not find anything no matter how deep they dug.

Camila sincerely hoped that the latter scenario was true, and that Aldrin did nothing out of line.

She hoped that she was simply overthinking the circumstances.

After all, her brother had shown a Lot of promise these last few days. Her mother had even said that Aldrin had been worried sick when they learned that she was captured. He had gone so far as to confront Jaylen.

Trudy was already in jail. Camila didn't want to sow any further conflict with Aldrin just because of some baseless suspicions.

"I'LL have the driver take you home," Isaac said, pulling her away from her thoughts.

“Okay, thanks."

When she arrived home, Rowena and Joe were already on their way to the hospital. The ambulance had gotten to the villa before she did.

Camila had to tell the chauffeur to turn around and rush to the hospital.

The moment the car screeched to a halt, she jumped out and told the man, "You may go back now."

Then she all but sprinted into the building.

She headed straight to the Pediatric Department, but there was no sight of her mother. After wandering around, she finally spotted Rowena in the Laboratory Department. "Mom..." she called out as she hurried over.

Relief flooded Rowena's face as she caught sight of her daughter. "You're here, Mila."
