The Lost Heiress 386

Chapter 386 The Moment Everything Changed

Stone nodded. “The doctor was an imposter. The real one was knocked out in his office. Same with the nurse–she was left unconscious in the hospital room.”

“So we were right. There’s an organization behind Quinn,” Johnathan said as he turned off the footage.

“The police have already issued a warrant. We’re doing what we can to capture her. But you and Sierra need to be careful,” Stone warned.

Though he hadn’t interrogated Quinn himself, he’d heard enough to know she was dangerously calculating.

And since Johnathan was the reason she’d been caught, Stone feared she might go after him in revenge.

But Johnathan wasn’t worried about himself.

What he truly feared… was something happening to Sierra.

After wrapping up with Stone, he got in the car and headed toward Sierra’s campus. On the way, he received a call from Chase.

“Johnathan, I heard Quinn escaped. What’s going on?”

Johnathan’s expression shifted. Since when did Chase care so much about Quinn?

She was arrested days ago and Chase hadn’t made a single call.

“If you’ve got something to say, just say it. Stop beating around the bush,” Johnathan snapped impatiently.

There was a pause on the other end before Chase finally said, “We’ve come to a decision. Jose will go abroad. He won’t be coming back.”

Johnathan frowned. This again.

He didn’t want to hear any more about it and hung up on the spot.

But that call made his decision clear: he had to find out what Chase and the others were hiding from him.
