Chapter 508 Where is Mrs. Valencia?
Having dealt with Serene's primary doctor, Sarah felt her anger boiling over even more. Serene was truly unforgivable... But forging medical records wouldn't be enough to bring Serene down completely. Her most heinous crime was nearly killing her brother!
However, Serene was obviously prepared. Nothing could be found from the surveillance footage of the rooftop and corridor. The last piece of physical evidence—the bracelet—was still missing.
Sarah aimlessly walked out of the hospital, lost in her thoughts. She lost her bracelet when she returned from the ski resort years ago. At that time, they were unlucky enough to encounter an avalanche, and Sarah nearly died on the mountain. She even managed to dig a wounded boy out of the snow. Thinking back, the bracelet must have been lost during that time.
The reason Serene wanted to kill and seize the bracelet was probably because she was afraid that Sarah would wear the bracelet while taking care of Kevin, thereby exposing Serene's identity. If that was the case... the bracelet didn't just end up in Serene's hands later on. If that were the case, Serene wouldn't possibly know that Sarah was the owner of the bracelet.
From the very beginning, Serene knew about the bracelet and Sarah's existence! That was to say, there was only one possibility—Serene was there when Sarah lost the bracelet on the mountain! She witnessed everything, picked up Sarah's bracelet, and wore it. Then, when Kevin came to recognize his family, Serene willingly took over Sarah's life!
Cold wind poured into her collar, and a cold sweat broke out on Sarah's back. This was like a scene from a horror movie. That avalanche was so dangerous that she and that boy almost died. Where was Serene then? Just watching them suffer?
Sarah grabbed her hair in pain, a more terrifying thought emerging in her mind— Could her father's poisoning and death have something to do with Serene? The doctor said that when her father was first hospitalized due to an illness, it was a pure physiological change, and Serene was probably caught off guard. But later, when Kevin didn't recognize Serene and recognized Sarah as his daughter, this was likely to have intensified Serene's sense of crisis...
If this was the case, Sarah would make sure that Serene paid the price for all her schemes and lies! Suddenly, a beeping noise by her ear startled her. Sarah came back to her senses and realized that she had walked quite far from the hospital. She rubbed her temples, deciding to start with the mountain. The root of everything was there!
On the other side, after finishing his work at the company, Antonio immediately brought a carefully prepared lunch to find Sarah. She had been through so much lately, and Antonio just wanted to take care of her as best as he could.
Antonio opened the hospital room door and saw the small figure curled up on the bed. A pang of heartache surged in his heart, and he softly said, "Sarah, are you still resting? Let's eat something first; I brought your favorite..."
His words abruptly stopped as Antonio put down the food in his hand and turned to see the true face of the woman on the bed. He immediately froze!
The person on the bed slowly sat up, wearing Sarah's coat, and greeted Antonio. "Mr. Valencia, what brings you here?"
Antonio's face was cold as he asked sternly, "Who are you?"
The nurse immediately stood up from the bed, "I... I am Mr. Jerrett's nurse. We've met before; Ms. Miller even asked me to deliver medicine to you. I get along well with her..."
She was a bit flustered by Antonio's reaction, trying hard to explain, seemingly unaware that she was angering the man in front of her.
Antonio clenched his teeth, his brows furrowed with terrifying anger, his eyes cold and wolf-like. "Where is Mrs. Valencia?"
The nurse swallowed, momentarily dumbfounded, "Ms. Miller... didn't she go to take care of you?"
Antonio was taken aback. The anger within him suddenly erupted, almost burning all of his rationality to ashes. "Do you even know what you're talking about?!"
The lunch Antonio brought crashed to the ground with a loud noise. The bodyguards waiting nearby heard the commotion and rushed in, but after seeing Antonio, they were also surprised.
"Mr. Valencia? What brings you here?!"
Antonio's brow furrowed. What did they mean by that? Why was everyone asking why he was here?
"Where is Sarah?!" Antonio demanded.
The bodyguard pointed at the nurse in Sarah's clothes in front of Antonio, "Isn't this..."
The nurse slowly turned her head, and when the bodyguard saw the woman's true face, he almost bit his own teeth. This... this... Who the hell was this?!
"What the hell is going on？!" Antonio roared.
The nurse shivered, "I... I finished the night shift today and thought I'd say hello to Ms. Miller. Then she said she received your call and said you had a car accident and are now in orthopedics! Then she asked me to help her wait for Mr. Jerrett's examination results here. I'm pregnant and have been feeling a bit under the weather these days, so she gave me her coat and let me rest on the bed..."
The bodyguard also said, "Mrs. Valencia did go to orthopedics; we saw her go there ourselves. She said you were in the operating room and asked us to stay here and not let any outsiders approach Mr. Jerrett. We were also afraid of danger due to the previous incidents. Later, Mrs. Valencia hurried back and never went out again. We didn't expect..."
With that, several burly men bowed their heads, "We're sorry, Mr. Valencia! We mistook the person!"
Antonio didn't have the energy to be angry anymore, his heart filled with immense panic. Sarah had gone to such lengths, swapping clothes with the nurse and evading the bodyguards' sight, so she must be planning to leave again!
Antonio was in utter despair. Could it be that she now even disregarded the crucial matter of catching her brother's murderer, all because she was so desperate to get away from him?!
Antonio couldn't think too much. He pushed past the bodyguards, got in his car, and began to aimlessly search. His face was ashen, and his jawline was taut as his gaze scanned each passerby like a searchlight.
In truth, he didn't know which direction to look for Sarah; he could only head towards home first. After all, their children were still there.
It has to be said, Antonio knew Sarah well.
After regaining her senses, Sarah found herself unconsciously walking down this familiar street. This was the way home.
Looking ahead, after two more blocks she would be at the place where she once thought she would live for the rest of her life.
A sense of inexplicable sorrow filled her heart. Many beautiful memories had taken place in that house, along with arguments and sadness. But Sarah once thought that from then on, it would all be happiness.
Unexpectedly, everything now was different from what she had imagined.
But the current Sarah had no time to be weak. She stood in place for a few minutes, imagining what her children were doing at home. When she had thought enough, she turned around to leave.
Unexpectedly, as she turned around, she bumped into a solid chest!
Looking up, it turned out to be Antonio!
Sarah instantly stepped back, looking at Antonio's gloomy face. She raised her hand and slapped him, shouting, "Shameless!"
