Sanfordâs voice conveyed urgency.
Rosalynnâs surprise preempted her irritation.
âSanford, Iâm here.
Whatâs the matter?â
âRosalynn, Maggieâs gone missing.
Did she mention her plans to you?â
Maggie was missing?
The news struck Rosalynn silent for a moment.
âShe informed me last night that she was heading to Wragos.
Hasnât she returned?â
âNo, she did return.
But she disappeared by morning! She left a message wanting to end our relationship and pleaded with me not to search for her.
â Sanfordâs voice wavered with restrained emotion.
Stunned, Rosalynn exchanged a look of shock with Brian.
Brian, equally taken aback, inquired deeply, âRosalynn, did Maggie seem troubled during your business trip to Skrix?â
Rosalynn paused, reflecting, âNo, she appeared quite pleased about clinching the deal with the Skrix Museum.
She just rushed home unexpectedly.
Could there be issues with her family?â
Upon hearing this, Sanford fell silent for a moment before speaking again.
âI see.
Iâll hang up now.
â
Rosalynn couldnât see his face, but she heard his anxiousness over the phone.
She frowned as the call ended.
Why was Maggie breaking up with Sanford out of the blue?
Even more strange, she just disappeared.
Rosalynn tried calling her next, but unsurprisingly, Maggieâs phone was turned off.
She contemplated for a moment before dialing Huttonâs number.
âHutton, do you have a minute? I need your help.
Could you check Maggieâs whereabouts?â
First things first.
Rosalynn needed to find her.
âWhat happened? Iâm making Valeria breakfast right now,â Hutton asked curiously.
âMaggieâs gone missing, and I canât reach her.
I need to know where she is,â Rosalynn answered.
âMaggie? Alright.
Iâll check it ASAP,â Hutton readily agreed.
His words brought her a small sense of relief.
Rosalynn let out a long breath when she hung up.
