Chapter 973 Action!
Sarah pressed her lips together. "We need to move faster. I heard Nia cried all night after they took her back yesterday... She's not doing well."
The more she thought about it, the more her heart ached.
Antonio turned to look at her. "Sarah, did you... go to the Morrisons'?"
"I..."
Sarah hesitated for a moment, but didn't hide it. "After you called me, I got really worried and went there... But I didn't go inside. I just happened to overhear two maids talking at the door. They didn't see me."
"Next time, let me know so that I can go with you."
Antonio raised his hand to gently touch her head. "I don't want you to get hurt."
Given Una's attitude today, it wouldn't be surprising if things got physical.
Francis, having listened to their conversation, also felt a heavy weight on his heart. "Is there anything I can do to help? I should do something for her, too."
"No need, Francis. Even though you can walk now, you still need to rest. My work at the company will be done soon, and then I can focus entirely on Nia's situation."
Sarah listened to them in silence.
She didn't want to wait any longer. Leaving Nia there felt like torture for both of them. She needed to confirm Nia's identity as soon as possible.
And the quickest way was...
To sneak into the Morrison Villa!
Sarah bit her lip, her eyes burning with determination as she looked at them. "Actually... I have an idea. I could sneak in!"
"This..."
If Nia really was Eden, then Bob was behind everything.
In that case, even if they found him, he wouldn't cooperate.
Antonio frowned deeply, but he thought Sarah's idea was good.
"Alright, it's settled. I'll go!" Sarah's eyes were filled with resolve. "I've taken care of Nia at their house before, so I know the layout. Plus, the maids there have a good impression of me. Even if I get caught, there might still be a way out."
If those maids had any conscience left, they might help her.
Even if they didn't help, at least they wouldn't expose her.
But Antonio naturally disagreed.
There was no way he would let Sarah go to the Morrisons' alone.
"No, we need to reconsider this through."
Francis, who had been silent, finally spoke after some thought.
"I actually think... it might be worth a try."
Antonio frowned. "Francis?"
"If Sarah goes in, we can support her from outside. She's familiar with the layout and can quickly get Nia's hair. I can pose as a flower delivery person to distract Una."
With enough flowers, even the guards might be distracted.
This would greatly increase the plan's success rate.
Sarah's eyes lit up. "Great idea! Antonio, Francis is right. Trust me, okay? We can do this!"
Seeing their eagerness, Antonio had no choice but to agree.
"Alright, but you have to promise me, if anything seems off, get out immediately! Call me if there's any trouble. Your safety comes first."
"I know, don't worry." Sarah couldn't hide her excitement. "Let's head out now!"
She quickly gave instructions to Sofia and Mary, then left with Antonio and Francis.
They first went to the flower shop to pick up the flowers.
"Since Bob is missing, let's use his name to send flowers to Una. She'll definitely come out to sign for them, and we can see if she knows anything about Bob's whereabouts..."
Antonio nodded and handed Sarah a Bluetooth earpiece.
"Keep the call connected once you're inside. Stay in touch at all times."
Sarah felt a warm glow in her heart as she saw how worried he was. "Okay, I'll get Nia's hair. If everything goes well tonight, we'll soon know if she's Eden."
She knew the pressure on this man was immense, but he always kept things to himself, bearing the burden alone.
This time... let her take the lead.
Francis had the shop staff pack up all the flowers, filling his car to the brim.
"I'll drive this car, and Yvonne from the shop will come with me. Antonio, you and Sarah park on the other side to avoid drawing attention."
With the details sorted, both cars set off.
Sarah was a bit nervous, but Antonio held her hand tightly the whole way, turning her anxiety into a source of strength.
No matter what, they had to succeed tonight.
They soon arrived at the Morrison Villa.
Francis parked at the front gate and adjusted his cap. "Yvonne, ring the bell."
The guard at the gate eyed the large vehicle warily. "What are you doing here so late?"
Yvonne, with her sweet smile, replied, "Hello, sir. We're from the flower shop, delivering flowers to Mrs. Morrison."
"Flowers?"
The guard glanced back, seeing the man in the driver's seat struggling to unload a massive bouquet. "These flowers... were ordered by a Mr. Morrison. Could you have Una come out to sign for them?"
"A Mr. Morrison?"
Could it be Bob?
The guard was shocked and didn't dare delay.
"Wait here, I'll make a call."
He turned and went back to the guardhouse.
Francis discreetly scanned the garden, noting the spot where Sarah would sneak in.
Soon, Una hurried out with a maid.
"Who sent these flowers?!"
Una looked worried and anxious, not faking it. "Is it Bob? Where is he? If he's sending flowers, why isn't he coming home?!"
Francis noted her expressions and politely smiled. "Sorry, Mrs. Morrison... The gentleman wanted to surprise you and didn't tell us his whereabouts. Please understand."
Una was convinced it was Bob.
Who else would send her flowers?
"Can you describe him to me?"
At least she would know Bob was safe!
Francis nodded and described Bob based on a photo he had seen. "Mr. Morrison looks like a young, successful man. He must respect you a lot."
Una's face showed a mix of relief and worry.
What was Bob planning?
Why send flowers but not come home?
Even neglecting the company!
She was worried sick!
