A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Finally, David stepped into the room quietly, his heart beating fast. He held his breath and looked at the bed--

No one was there.

"Rita?" David called her again and again. He ran to the balcony, then to the bathroom, but Rita was nowhere to be found, nor was the baby. "Hello? Is anyone here? Doctor! Where is she? Rita, the woman who just gave birth here? !"

The doctors and nurses on duty that night approached David, seeing him looking distressed. No sign of Rita and her baby, they all exchanged puzzled looks. "They...they were here. Not too long ago. Maybe they are taking a walk outside..."

"A walk? Are you kidding me? She just delivered a baby!" David almost shouted.

"Sir, please..." It was already terrible enough for the hospital to have a missing patient and her baby, not to say the now, missing patient was connected to a high profile family. Everyone in the room stood still without saying a word.

"Why are you all standing there? Go and find her!" David roared at them. "Or I will tear down this pathetic hospital!

You don't want to get into any trouble, do you?" He knocked over a few folders from a nurse's hand.

The hospital sent out as many staff members as they could to find Rita. They searched the entire hospital, but no one could find her. Even surveillance cameras could not help. She just disappeared.

"Tell me, who brought her here?" David suddenly asked, grabbing the collar of a doctor. He was on the edge of an emotional outburst.

"It was a Mr. Gu and a Ms. Bai. I remember. They came together. Maybe...Maybe they took her with them when they left." The doctor was glad that he was able to think of this possibility. There was a big chance that David would throw him against the wall if he did not provide an answer.

'Mr. Gu and Ms. Bai?

Wasn't that Jacob and Emily?'

David did miss a phone call from Jacob. 'They took Rita? If that was the case then it would make sense.'
