Chapter 562 Stop Feeling Guilty

Once Kurt’s operation was successful, he was declared to be out of danger before being directly wheeled to a high-end, private ward.

Oscar had Jolin stay behind to look after Kurt while he went home with Amelia and Tony.

Upon returning to the condominium, he carried his son, who was already fast asleep, to bed. Afterward, he went downstairs and added honey to a cup of warm water for Amelia. “Here, take this to soothe your throat.”

She received the glass from him and took a sip. “Too many things are happening all at once in the past few days. I’m feeling quite overwhelmed.”

He patted her head and said, “Finish this and go upstairs for a nice, warm shower. Then, get some sleep. Don’t think too much.”

Amelia gave him a glance and nodded.

The two of them showered in different bathrooms. Once they were done, he tucked her in and went to make a call in the study.

“Jasper, bring a few men with you to Anglandur to look for Jean’s corpse. By hook or by crook, you have to bring her body back. Then, get to the bottom of this matter and find out if the failure of their mission was caused by an intentional or accidental mistake,” Oscar ordered coldly.

“Yes, Boss.”

 

After he finished giving his instructions and ended the call, he held his phone and looked outside the window. His gaze was deep and impenetrable like the ocean. No one could tell what was on his mind.

Oscar spent a long time in his study before going back to the bedroom. The moment he saw Amelia’s and Tony’s innocent sleeping faces, the frustration within him vanished into thin air.

 

A smile appeared on his face as he walked toward the bed and lay down. Then, he hugged them close in his arms.

It was a dreamless night.

The next morning, Oscar and Amelia were getting ready to visit Kurt at the hospital when Jolin called to tell them that Kurt was missing. That took them by surprise.

As soon as the call ended, Amelia said anxiously, “How could an adult disappear when he’s still injured and unconscious?”

Oscar only looked at her silently.

Amelia snapped back to reality and realized that she had overreacted earlier.

She tried to explain herself. “Oscar… I didn’t mean it that way. I just—”
