ette couldn't tear her eyes away from Walter's striking profile interly captivated. Dale's smile grew even more obsequious. "Mr. Lopez, we didn't expect your esteemed presence. I apologize for the lack of proper reception" As he spoke, Dale turned gleefully toward the space behind him Dr. Lonely Bird is right over His words trailed off, and the smile smile on his face froze. The spot where Lonely Bird had just been standing was now empty- Lonely Bind had vanished without a trace. Walter's piercing gaze locked onto Dale. "Over where?"
Under Walter's stare, Dale's heart pounded in fear, his smile fading into an expression of near panic. "Mr. Lopez, Dr. Lonely Bird was just here a moment ago, everyone saw... The other doctors, catching Dale's desperate warning glance, quickly echoed, "Yes, yes, that's right. None of them dared to look Walter in the eve
Walter had earned a fearsome reputation, one that had once dominated all of Crescentville. After his legs were paralyzed, his temper had only grown more unpredictable and volatile.
And now, this towering figure at the apex of Crescentville's elite had suddenly appeared at the hospital, no doubt searching for the clusive Lonely Bird.

"Or maybe Dr. Lonely Bird had something urgent to attend to and left in a rush without saying goodbye!" Walter's jaw clenched, and he ordered Brian, "Lonely Bird has just left. Lock down the hospital. Search every inch if you have to. Just find that person."
