âBut there is something more troublesome right now.â
Yasmin sighed and felt guilty. âIn the morning, Young Madam Carrie had gotten news of Linnyâs funeral
while watching TVâ¦â
Ryanâs heart skipped a beat. What he feared the most still happened.
âIt was my negligence. I didnât expect the news to be reported so soon since we had sealed the
information before. However, these arenât excuses. Itâs still my mistake. Donât reward me. Iâd rather you
punish me.â Yasmin was gloomy and willing to take responsibility .
âItâs not your fault, Yasmin. You took care of Carrie every day and handled business matters for me.
Youâve already worked hard.â
Ryanâs heart felt heavy, and his eyes were filled with worry. âHowâs Carrie looking now?â
âYoung Madam Carrie⦠Itâs not good. She kept crying non-stop. Please come back quickly.â
âAlright. Iâm on my way.â
Ending the call, Ryan thought about his wife crying at home n felt worried and afraid. His blood
pressure soared, and he kic back of the driverâs seat.
âDriver faster! Do you still want to get paid?!â
âYes!â The driver stepped on the gas pedal and was scared stiff!
Ryan rushed home anxiously, immediately flying up the stairs to check on his wife without even taking
the time to change his clothes.
âMr. Hoffman.â Yasmin guarded the door and bowed to him.
âSheâs inside?â Ryanâs heart raced.
âYes. Young Madam Carrie refused to eat or drink, shutting herself inside.â
Yasmin pursed her lips and felt distressed. âI didnât dare to go in. You know that Young Madam Carrie
needs you the most now.â
Ryan pushed open the door lightly and walked in.
Although it was not daytime, the curtains were all closed, and the lights were switched off. The dim
atmosphere felt suffocating.
âHoney? Honey?â
Ryan searched the study, bedroom, changing room, and bathroom but could not find the person he
was looking for.
He panicked, his shoulders trembling beneath his suit, and hi Ims were soaked in cold sweat!
âCarrie!? Carrie!â
His voice brought Yasmin, who was guarding outside the d the room.
âCarrie is missing!â Ryan was at a loss.
âHow could it be?!â
Yasmin also started panicking. âIâve been outside the door all the time. Young Madam Carrie did not
step out of the room!â
Her words were like lightning that struck down on Ryan, causing his handsome face to turn pale. All
kinds of terrifying scenes played out in his mind, and he could not take it anymore!
Gathering his courage, Ryan peered out the window with a forehead full of cold sweat.
There was nothing on the ground.
He let out a sigh of relief, and his hanging heart finally calmed down. However, he felt drained, his
expensive suit drenched in sweat.
Yasmin knew what Ryan was afraid of. She felt the same way.
After all, Carried had mental issues. They were afraid she might do something extreme under such
stimulation.
