Chapter 0691

Suzy tried calling Dylan, but there was no answer.

Frustrated, she called Desmond instead. "Where's Dylan?"

It didn't seem like anything serious had happened.

If it had, Desmond would have already informed her. But why wasn't Dylan answering? Was he too busy, or had he simply not heard the phone?

On the other end of the line, Desmond replied, “Mr. Wright didn't come into work today, so I'm not sure where he is right now."

"He didn't go to work?" Suzy asked casually. "Why not?"

"When I went to pick him up this morning, he said he was taking the day off. He didn't tell me why, and I didn't press him for details."

Desmond paused before adding, "Mrs. Wright, is there something urgent you need to discuss with him?"

"Sort of..." Suzy pressed her lips together. "Could you try reaching out to him and ask him to call me back?"

"Of course. Please hold on."

Five minutes later, Desmond called back. "Mrs. Wright, I can't get hold of him either. His phone is on, but he's not picking up. Do you think something might've happened to him?"

The thought of Dylan's lingering health issues sent a wave of unease through Suzy. "Was he at the family estate last night or at Bayview Heights?"

"Bayview Heights. He usually stays there unless it's absolutely necessary to be elsewhere."
