Shaun shook his head. “I can tell you that I intended to attack the day Sarah went to the airport. Her
disappearance today has nothing to do with me.”
Chester believed him. “It’s obvious. If you had done something, you would’ve expected Rodney to bring
his men over for a search. Based on your character, you would’ve carefully assigned people early on.
He wouldn’t have had a chance to barge into the Hill family’s manor.”
Shaun sighed. He smiled bitterly. “You understand me best.”
It was unfortunate that Rodney understood Shaun less despite knowing him for so long.
“Rodney understands you too, but… He always becomes irrational when it comes to matters that
involve Sarah.” Chester’s voice sounded helpless too.
“Say no more. Actually, there’s already no more trust between Rodney and me, ” Shaun said
mockingly, “But I’m curious about who kidnapped Sarah.”
“Maybe she has other enemies she has offended.” Chester took a drag of the cigarette. “I did some
investigation in the hospital. Here’s what I think happened. At g:oo p.m. last night, someone disguised
as a doctor examined Sarah. After that person went in, they knocked out Sarah and the caregiver.
Then, they tied Sarah outside the window and someone took Sarah away using a rope from the
rooftop.”
Shaun was astonished. “Was there no commotion at all when Sarah and the caregiver were knocked
out in the ward?”
“That’s the weird thing.” Chester was thinking about it too. “However, the caregiver said Sarah went to
sleep very early last night. I suspect that Sarah must’ve been knocked out beforehand, but I’m not sure
how that happened.”
“Maybe someone tampered with her medications or everyday items.” Shaun guessed. “The person
who did it was quite meticulous too. I don’t know whether the motive is to kidnap or get revenge on
Sarah. If it was for revenge, Sarah might not even be alive now.”
“Don’t worry. Since she went missing in my hospital, I’ ll investigate this thoroughly for you.
Rodney won’t be able to blame you even if he files a police report.”
At the hospital, Chester put down his phone. He stood in front of the window, looking at the sky that
was starting to turn bright.
Not long after, his subordinate came in. “Young Master Jewell, I’ve asked that caregiver. Sarah said
she was tired very early last night. But for the past few days, Sarah’s wounds would hurt and she would
only sleep at 1:00 or 2:00 a.m. She was most probably drugged. However, there’s no problem with
Sarah’s IV drip yesterday. Her meals were arranged by Young Master Snow. The caregiver also said
that Sarah had an upset stomach last night and did not eat much. The only possibility would be…”
Chester raised his eyebrows. “Go on.”
His subordinate walked to Chester’s front and spoke in a low voice, “The toothpaste. I squeezed some
of Sarah’s toothpaste and did a test. There are traces of drugs in it. It’s a drug that’ll make people
drowsy even if only a little of it comes into contact with the mouth cavity.”
Chester’s pupils constricted. He recalled something all of a sudden. He had brought Eliza to Sarah’s
ward yesterday. Eliza had gone to the bathroom too. Therefore, it was very possible that she tampered
with the toothpaste.
He pulled his subordinate over. “Where’s that toothpaste?”
“It’s still in the bathroom. But it’s likely that only the front bit of the toothpaste has been tampered with.
If we don’t say anything, Young Master Snow won’t find out about it,” the subordinate said carefully. “I
remember your words. If it was Young Master Hill who did this, we should erase as much evidence as
possible stealthily. Therefore, I didn’t inform Young Master Snow anything.”
“Don’t say a word about this anymore.” Chester asked in a low voice, “Who has gone into Sarah’s ward
yesterday?”
“Not many. Just Rodney, the caregiver, Cindy, Miss Eliza, and you…” After the subordinate spoke, his
gaze became different.
“Is there any progress on Rodney’s side?” Chester asked all of a sudden.
“Yes. Snowden’s people acquired the hospital’s security footage at dawn. Sarah was taken away
through the rooftop. As long as a suspicious person is found entering the rooftop at that hour, it won’t
take long for them to find the culprit, ” the subordinate said. “The other party definitely took Sarah away
in a car. If the car can be found, it’ll be easy to investigate this matter.”
