Sebastian gave a lecture until he felt thirsty. After taking a sip of water, he pondered and said, “I thought I heard the voice of the daughter of the Zimmerman family just now. Since her dad is not by her side, she won’t throw a tantrum when she wakes up like other children, right?”

“I’ll go and take a look then. You should rest for a while. How about you go out and have a seat? It’s a little stuffy in the study.”

“All right then.”

As the master and apprentice duo spoke, they walked out of the study one after another.

Yolanda was eating instant noodles in the living room when they came out.

While she was eating, she was watching videos on her phone. Upon seeing Sebastian and Winnie coming over, she turned off her phone.

“What’s the matter, Grandpa?” Yolanda asked Sebastian.

“Nothing. I just came out for a stroll. Are the instant noodles tasty?”

“It’s edible.” When Yolanda saw Winnie heading toward the guest room, she could not help but glance at her a few more times. “It’s better than the lunch at that restaurant anyway,” she added absent-mindedly.

Noticing that his granddaughter’s gaze kept following Winnie, Sebastian explained, “I thought I heard the voice of the daughter of the Zimmerman family just now and wasn’t sure if she’s awake or not, so I asked Nini to go over and take a look.”

Yolanda frowned upon hearing her grandfather’s words.

“Really? What did you hear? I’ve been in the living room all this time. Why didn’t I hear her?”

“You didn’t hear anything? I thought I heard her calling out ‘Daddy,’ but maybe I misheard it.”

Sebastian had no reason to lie, and since he did not hear anything else, Yolanda was able to set her mind at ease.

However, Winnie soon rushed out of the guest room.

“Master, Rachel is missing! I searched the entire room and couldn’t find her.”

“What?” Sebastian widened his eyes in shock. “How could this happen? What about the windows? Are they closed properly? It couldn’t be that she was mischievous and climbed out of it, right? That would be dangerous!”
