Chapter 1237

"Kari, Ronald's gone "

With those words, Kari bolted out the door.

The moment she saw the empty room, she froze.

Everything was tidy.

The bed was made, not a speck of dust in sight.

There was a book on the desk. She walked over, picked it up, and noticed a few crumpled dollar bills.

It wasn't much.

Probably all the money Ronald had.

Willa's eyes welled up with tears at the sight of the bills, "Without Calista, how's Ronald gonna make it?"

Even though Ronald was mature for his age, he was just a teenager, around fifteen or sixteen. Without his family, how could he survive?

Kari, staring at the money, suddenly had a realization and blurted out, "Mom, I know where Ronald went. I'll go find him!" And with that, she dashed out the door again. Willa tried to respond, but was stopped by a phone call.
