Chapter 441
Chapter 441 She went to the island herself.
Hannah pointed to one of the wards and said, “His grandmother and sister have both come over. | can’t go in, but you know his grandmother, so you can go and ask her!”
Audrey nodded. She walked up to Shawn’s ward, knocked on the door, and upon receiving permission from inside, Audrey pushed the door open. Seeing Briana and Becca by the bedside, Audrey greeted them and then looked towards Shawn on the hospital bed.
Shawn was wearing a hospital gown, with his left leg in a cast and his shoulder wrapped in bandages. His handsome face lacked color, indicating that he was seriously injured.
“Mr. Goodwin, | had some questions to ask you.” Shawn glanced at Audrey and after a moment of silence, he said to Briana and Becca, “Grandma, you and Becca go back first.”
After Audrey and Shawn were the only ones left in the ward, Shawn looked at Audrey with a complex expression in his eyes, his lips tightly pressed together, and he remained silent for a long time.
Audrey felt a vague sense of unease in her heart.
Did something happen to Sterling?
“Mr. Goodwin, where did you find my mother? And Sterling, where is he?” Chapter 441 She went to the island herself.
Shawn sighed, some things would have to be revealed to Audrey sooner or later.
Shawn revealed that Sterling had been drugged by Anika and, taking advantage of the situation, he disclosed the fact that they had been kidnapped to the island.
“I'm not entirely sure how he specifically found your mother on the island. But in order to save her, he gave up his own chance of escape.”
Shawn explained in detail to Audrey how Sterling saved Aurora. “At that time, | wanted to bring down a big stone, but it was too late...”
Thinking of Fort No. 9, the scene of it being bombed to the ground and swallowed by the sea in front of him, Shawn’s face turned even paler.
Upon hearing Shawn’s narrative, Audrey’s mind buzzed. The hands hanging by the side suddenly clenched into fists. She shook her head and swayed unsteadily.
No, no, no, what Shawn said was not true!
“He couldn’t have had an accident, he must still be alive and well. Did ht, he must still be alive and well. Did you send someone to look for him?”
The time when she was kidnapped by Russell, he was able to escape with her from the sea. This time, he will definitely be able to overcome. the disaster!
My nose felt extremely sour, and a hot mist welled up in my eye sockets.
“He would be fine, he would be fine!”
Chapter 441 She went to the island herself.
Shawn looked at Audrey, who appeared to be on the verge of
collapsing, with his throat feeling as if it were being tightly squeezed by an invisible hand. “It has been forty-eight hours already, and it is likely to be more bad than good.” Although cruel, Shawn had to make sure Audrey was mentally prepared.
Upon hearing the words “more bad than good,” Audrey’s blood turned. cold.
The fingertips were tightly pinched in the palm, as if they were about to break the skin.
Her chest heaved violently, her slender body trembling like a sieve. She felt as if she had fallen into an endless abyss, unable to breathe or
move. “No! | didn’t believe—”
Audrey screamed her heart out and wanted to say something else, but a surge of a metallic sweetness rose in her throat. Her vision went black, and she passed out directly.
Hannah heard Audrey’s cry of sadness and rushed into the ward, just in time to witness Audrey falling to the ground. Her heart jumped into her throat, and she immediately stepped forward to support Audrey.
Audrey opened her heavy eyelids and what met her gaze was a snow- white ceiling, snow-white walls, and a faint scent of disinfectant wafting into her nostrils.
Chapter 441 She went to the island herself.
The temple throbbed with pain.
There was a momentary blank in my mind, but soon | remembered what had happened. She suddenly sat up from the sickbed.
Hannah finished boiling the hot water and came over to see Audrey sitting pale-faced on the hospital bed. She hurriedly approached her.
“Audra!” Hannah had already learned from Shawn what had happened, and she was equally incredulous and panicked. She was Audrey's best friend and naturally knew how deep her feelings were for Sterling.
Although there was a conflict between the two of them recently and Audrey was hurt by Sterling, without love, with Audrey’s personality, how could she be easily hurt?
Audrey tightly held Hannah’s hand and her lips trembled slightly as she asked, “Hannah, did he have any news?”
Hannah shook her head with a solemn expression and said, “The assistant is still searching on that island. It seems that the Howard family knows about his accident and has sent people over, but there has been no news so far.”
Audrey pursed her lips tightly and remained silent for a long time.
Hannah felt her fingers cold as if they had just come out of an ice cellar, and a wave of sadness surged in her heart. “Audra, cry if you want to!”
Audrey tilted her head slightly and hoarsely said, “Why cry? | believe he must still be alive and well!”
In this life, many things were different from the previous life.
Mom found her and returned to her side.. Sterling could not have easily left this world either!
Closing her eyes, Audrey suppressed all her emotions deep within her heart. With a serene expression on her delicate face, she feigned. strength and composure, saying. “I will personally go and find him.”
Hannah nodded. Audrey could empathize with her current mood.
If her beloved one had an accident and his life or death was unknown, she definitely wouldn’t just sit and wait for the worst outcome, just like
her. “| accompanied you in the past.”
Audrey shook her head. “Mr. Goodwin was still injured, and you were taking care of him at the hospital. Deon is over there, don’t worry, | won't let anything happen to myself.”
Shawn learned that Audrey was going to meet Sterling and did not try to dissuade her.
He arranged a helicopter for her in the past.
Before Audrey left, she called Rylan to inform him that his mother had been found.
Upon learning that Aurora was in the Seffolk City Hospital, Rylan fell silent on the phone for a long time. Chapter 441 She went to the island herself,
Audrey thought he had hung up the phone for so long, until she heard his suppressed sob.
“Dad, you take care of mom, | have something to do and need to go out for a while.”
“| will fly back immediately.”
After five or six hours of flying, Audrey met Deon on the island.
In just a few days, Deon had become noticeably thinner, with stubble growing on his jaw and bloodshot eyes.
Seeing Audrey approaching, Deon struggled to control his emotions. and handed her a toolkit, saying, “I searched for three days and nights, and this is all | found.”
“The toolkit was hidden by the young master in his boots and brought to the island. Inside, there were rice grain-sized trackers. Only Mr. Goodwin and | were able to track all the way here. But now that the toolkit has been found, the young master is still nowhere to be found.”
Audrey looked at the vast sea. Today, there was no wind or waves, and the sea surface appeared quite calm. Several teams of search and rescue personnel were searching on the sea..
The search and rescue operation had been going on for 72 hours, and Audrey dared not think further.
