Chapter 282

Christopher carried Yuliana into the house. She had a heatstroke and was too tired. Since Rowan disappeared, she didn’t eat or drink, so she fell unconscious in the car.

Layla and Jared hurriedly arrived at the Solace residence and waited for them to return with Joyce.

Seeing Christopher come in with Yuliana in his arms, Joyce asked with concern, “Is Yuliana okay?”

Christopher looked expressionless, and his gaze was cold. He replied, “Nothing major. She’ll be fine after a good rest. I’ll carry her up first.”

Then, he carried Yuliana upstairs.

Looking at his back, Layla was in a complicated mood. In the past, she always wished for Christopher to be mature and reliable. Yet now, he could remain calm even if his son had gone missing.

Seeing Christopher like this, Layla didn’t feel happy. Instead, she felt sorry for him.

Christopher carried Yuliana back to the room and gently put her on the bed.

However, Yuliana seemed to be very uneasy. She subconsciously wanted to grab something as soon as she landed on the bed. Her eyebrows were deeply knitted together, and her pale lips moved slightly.

Christopher held her hand and comforted her softly, “It’s all right. Have a good sleep. Leave this matter to me. I’ll get him back safely.”

Yuliana gradually calmed down in Christopher’s appeasement, but her eyebrows were still not relaxed.

Christopher sat by the bed for a few minutes and looked at Yuliana quietly. Then, he called the family doctor to have a look at Yuliana.

Isaac Larson, the family doctor, asked about Yuliana’s situation and performed some checks on her before giving her an IV drip.

“Dr. Larson, please stay here and take care of her. Call me if anything happens.”

Isaac replied, “Okay.”

Christopher fixed his gaze on Yuliana, who was on the bed, then turned around and went downstairs.

There was a pin-drop silence in the hall downstairs as no one spoke.

Layla answered a few phone calls before starting to reply to her emails.

Joyce was relatively free, but she didn’t wish to speak. She just sat there and looked somewhere blankly.
