Chapter 228 Heard It

Hailey was the first one who noticed Yuliana missing.

When Yuliana came out of school, she called Hailey, told her she was on the way, and asked Hailey to cook spaghetti.

Hailey had already cooked the spaghetti. When she noticed that Yuliana had not come back yet, she called Yuliana again to ask where she was.

Nonetheless, the first call was hung up after a while.

When Hailey called again, Yuliana’s phone was already turned off.

Hailey got worried and planned to go to school. She suddenly stopped when she was about to go out with her phone and shoes on. The more Hailey thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.

It had been 20 minutes since Yuliana called her. Yuliana was supposed to have reached home as the journey. only took ten minutes. Yuliana had a power bank, so it was impossible for her phone to be dead.

If Yuliana did not come back because she had something to do, she would tell Hailey instead of turning off her phone.

Hailey panicked at the thought of this.

Yuliana had been pregnant for more than seven months. Hailey did not dare to think about if something bad had happened to Yuliana.

Hailey thought for a while and immediately called Christopher, but no one answered the phone even though she had called several times. Hailey was in a panic. Finally, she remembered she had saved Joyce’s phone number and called Joyce.

At that time, Joyce was checking Alex’s homework, and her phone was on Alex’s desk.

When she heard her phone vibrate, Joyce glanced at the caller ID. It was an unknown number.

She gave some instructions to Alex, picked up her phone, and walked outside before she answered the call. Before Joyce could speak, Hailey, on the other side of the phone, said anxiously, “Mrs. Solace, I’m Hailey. Something bad seemed to happen to Yuliana.”

Joyce was stunned momentarily and hurriedly asked, “What do you mean by saying that something bad had happened to her?”
