Natalie finally asked what she had beenmeaning to ask. “Mom, where’s Brandon? Why can’t I get in touch with him?

“Well…” Johanna and Beal exchanged glances.

Finally, Johanna spoke up, albeit hesitantly.

“You see, Brandon fainted during the search and rescue, and now he is in the hospital.” Natalie‘s eyes widened and she clutched Johanna‘s hand worriedly.

“How is he now? Brandon‘s always been healthy.

How could he suddenly pass out?” The more she thought about it, the more anxious Natalie became.

She lifted the blanket and was about to get out of bed.

“We have to go back to Seacisco now.” Beal hurried up to stop his daughter.

He shook his head firmly and said, “You‘d better stay in the hospital for a few more days just to be safe.

Anyway, I had already asked my assistant to check on Brandon.

He‘s fine.” But Natalie couldn‘t calm down.

“Dad, why didn‘t you visit him yourself? Is he seriously ill?” “Calm down, Natalie.

We were so busy looking for you that we didn‘t spare time to visit him in the hospital.

But I heard that Brandon is fine now.” Johanna comforted Natalie in a gentle voice.

Natalie lowered her head, feeling guilty.

This was all happening because of her.

“Before I called you, I tried calling him first.

But I couldn‘t get through to his number.

What do you think is going on?” At first, Natalie didn‘t think too much of it.

But now, the sense of uneasiness in her heart was getting stronger and stronger.

Johanna scratched her head and averted her gaze, feeling a little embarrassed.
