Forbidden Passion

Chapter 587

Chapter 587 Theodore Was Frantically Looking for Her

Theodore stood at the bedroom door for what felt like forever, trying to keep his anger from boiling over. He pulled out his phone and made a call.

The call went through, but no one picked up.

Theodore gripped his phone tight, thinking he'd been way too soft on her lately.

He walked into the bedroom and chucked his phone on the bed. The more he thought about it, the madder he got. He stormed into the bathroom, took a hot shower, and came out, staring at his phone, lost in thought. After the blow-up with Phoebe that afternoon, she hadn't come back to the office. Her coat and bag were still there, and he was pretty sure he'd seen her phone on her desk before he left.

Theodore figured Phoebe was still pissed and didn't want to be around him, so he didn't bother asking where she was. But now, thinking back, something felt off.

He picked up his phone and dialed Phoebe's number again. It rang and rang until it went to voicemail, but no one answered.

A sudden wave of unease hit Theodore.

He immediately called Carol. It was late, and Carol was already asleep. She groggily answered the call.

Seeing the caller ID, Carol snapped awake.

She sat up abruptly and said, "Mr. Reynolds, you..."

"Carol, did you see Phoebe this afternoon?" Theodore cut in coldly.

Carol was taken aback. She tried to remember what she'd done that afternoon and if she'd seen Phoebe. After a few seconds, she confidently said, "No, I didn't see Ms. Ziegler at all before I left. Mr. Reynolds, is something wrong?" Theodore had a meeting in the afternoon and a dinner in the evening, leaving the office at 6:00 p.m. Carol should've left later than him. If Carol hadn't seen Phoebe come back, it meant Phoebe hadn't been avoiding him but hadn't returned to the office at all.
