Sophie felt the weight of the man’s icy presence, and her courage faltered. Fear clawed at her chest, rendering her tongue nearly tied. Desperate to recover, she blurted out, “Maybe Mr. Robin had something urgent to handle and had to leave without saying anything!”

Emyr’s jaw clenched, his expression unreadable but commanding. Turning to Tad, he gave a swift, unyielding order. “He was just here. Seal the hospital. Search every corner until you find him.”

“Yes, sir!” Tad responded without hesitation and began carrying out the directive.

Though Emyr had entered quietly, his authority transformed the atmosphere.

Tad’s commands rippled through the hospital, and soon every exit and passage was locked down. Escape was no longer an option.

Meanwhile, in a dim stairwell, Charmaine worked with precision.

She shrugged off her jacket and rolled it into a compact bundle, tossing it into a shadowy corner near a trash bin.

Her hands moved swiftly as she descended several flights of stairs and slipped into an elevator.

The soft hum of mechanical wheels drew her attention. Tad shifted to the side, revealing Emyr, whose presence in his wheelchair was no less imposing. His sharp features were carved with authority, his gaze unwavering.

Charmaine’s smile brightened, and she met his stare with playful ease. “Mr. Emyr! Fancy running into you here.”

Emyr’s patience was wearing thin, his mood dark as a storm cloud. He cut straight to the point, his voice low and clipped. “Why are you here?”
