Chapter 721 Very Lucky
Fiona leaned against the glass wall of the nursery, looking at the two babies in the incubator with excitement in her eyes.
"Grandma, look! They are so small and cute! The girl looks like Alex, and the boy looks more like Katherine!" Fiona exclaimed.
Sandra, seeing her two great-grandchildren, was naturally moved to tears, but her expression was also tinged with some seriousness and complexity.
Sandra had many concerns on her mind, unlike the simple-minded Fiona.
After watching her great-grandchildren for a while, Sandra turned her head and looked at Ambrosia, who had brought them here, and said in a deep voice, "I know you have been friends with Katherine for many years. Are you sure it was Alex who took one of the babies when Katherine gave birth?"
Ambrosia nodded solemnly. "Yes, it was him. We all saw it with our own eyes."
Sandra furrowed her brows. "But our family has already investigated. Alex did book a return flight on the day Katherine gave birth, but he did not board the plane, and there is no record of his entry into the country. You say that someone who did not board the plane and enter the country appeared in Katherine's delivery room?"
Hearing this, Ambrosia adjusted her gold-rimmed glasses, thinking Sandra was trying to defend Alex, and her expression turned colder. "Mrs. Melville, we have no reason to lie to you. Alex's niece, Teresa, was also present. She saw him too. If you don't believe her, you can check the hospital's surveillance records!"
Sandra sighed and explained, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not doubting you. It's just that the information we have found does not show Alex's boarding or entry records, which is very strange. I just wanted to ask if there's any chance you might have mistaken someone else for Alex. If it was indeed Alex, then it is truly bizarre!"
Seeing that Sandra was not being unreasonable, Ambrosia's expression softened a bit. "Have you contacted Mr. Alex Melville or anyone close to him in the past few days?"
Sandra shook her head.
Fiona turned around, her face etched with worry, and said, "We can't reach Alex or Leander now. Our whole family is very anxious and has no idea what's happening over there! Moreover, there's something very strange. We found out that the flight Alex booked was delayed for three hours due to unknown reasons, and later, after taking off, it crashed into the sea due to a malfunction! Fortunately, Alex and Leander did not board the plane!"
Hearing Fiona's account, Ambrosia narrowed her eyes slightly.
She and Frank had also discovered that Alex had booked a return flight but didn't board it, which they found suspicious.
But knowing Alex did not board the plane, they did not pay attention to what happened to the plane.
Unexpectedly, it crashed?
"Could it be someone deliberately created the illusion that Mr. Alex Melville was in a plane crash? But they didn't have time to handle Alex's boarding information properly, and you found out?" Ambrosia said.
Her suspicion was quite reasonable.
Fiona responded, "I think so. It must be Sophia's doing! That woman is obsessed with Alex! We should go directly to Sophia's house and demand him back!"
Ambrosia and her team had also suspected Sophia. They had people closely monitoring Summit Innovations Group and Sophia's house in Markovia, but they hadn't found anything unusual in the past few days.
Sophia was seen going in and out for socializing and shopping every day, but there was no sign of Alex.
Sandra, very cautious, signaled Fiona to be quiet with a stern look. "Brent dotes on Sophia. If their family really has Alex, they must have made thorough preparations. Even if we go directly to demand him, they will probably deny it. Alright, everyone, calm down. I'll go back and discuss with Jackie what to do next. As for Katherine, please take good care of her and comfort her for me. The Melville family will give Katherine an explanation! If Alex is in trouble and can't come back in time, I hope Katherine can understand. If Alex has done something to betray Katherine and that's why he hasn't returned, Jackie and I won't forgive him!"
Seeing that Sandra was not the kind of muddle-headed elder who would blindly defend Alex, Ambrosia nodded respectfully. "Okay, we will take good care of her at the hospital. Take care."
After seeing Sandra off, Ambrosia turned around, her face darkening.
She saw Katherine, dressed in hospital clothes, standing not far away, looking at her with an expressionless face.
Ambrosia felt a bit guilty and walked over worriedly. "Katherine, why did you come out? Didn't they say you shouldn't catch a cold after giving birth? There are several windows open in the corridor, and it's windy! Let's go back!"
Katherine looked gloomy. "I was uncomfortable lying down, so I came to see the babies."
Katherine didn't question anything, as if she hadn't heard the conversation between Ambrosia and Sandra. Ambrosia secretly breathed a sigh of relief, took off her coat, and draped it over Katherine. "Katherine, be careful not to catch a cold."
Katherine did not refuse Ambrosia's coat and walked slowly to the nursery, looking at her two children through the glass.
"Ambrosia, has something happened to Alex?" Katherine asked.
Ambrosia's heart sank.
Had Katherine overheard something?
Katherine's voice trembled slightly, and she seemed unnaturally calm. "I just searched for flight information on my phone and saw the news. His flight had an accident and crashed, and the rescue team is still searching. So, you all have been hiding this from me and not letting me use my phone these past few days, right?"
Taking a deep breath to control her emotions, Katherine continued, "Don't worry. I'm very rational. The two children need me, and I won't do anything rash. But you must send someone to find him. You must find him, dead or alive!"
Ambrosia frowned, unsure of how to explain. "Katherine, Frank and I have already sent people to look for him. We will inform you as soon as we have any news! Don't think the worst. He is very lucky."
