Chapter 225 Ungrateful

“Luckily, she’s safe,” explained Josh when he noticed that his boss’ expression was off.

Frowning at his words, Alexander coldly commented, “She overestimated herself.” A few seconds later, he closed the folder and stood up. As he put on his coat, he asked, “Which hospital?”

“Huh?” Josh was puzzled. His mind went blank. Instantly, he wished he could go back in time and slap himself before he said all that. Am I looking for death?

“Which hospital is she in?” Alexander stared at Josh and repeated his question impatiently.

Hesitating for a long moment, Josh muttered, “Miss Hunter isn’t hospitalized.”

 

“Not hospitalized? Where did she go?”

“S-She was taken away by Elijah Grant.”

 

As soon as he said that, Alexander’s face sank after he digested the information.

“President Duncan…” Josh observed his expression cautiously, “are we still going?”

Clenching his fist, Alexander answered, “Of course.”

“But, where?” Josh couldn’t understand. “Miss Hunter isn’t in the hospital. Are we going to Elijah’s house? I don’t think this is appropriate, President Duncan. Why not give Miss Hunter a call first?”

“Do you think I have nothing else to do when I go out except to look for her?” Alexander’s voice was cold and his gaze was murderous. It was as if he wanted to chop Josh up.
