Chapter 1228
That woman seemed to have a good relationship with Calvin.
Harriet then wondered if Riley was taken away by that woman.
Suddenly, Harriet’s body shook. She raised her head and only saw a figure standing at the door of the room.
It was Zephyr.
Harriet was surprised because she didn’t notice when he opened the door.
When she married Zephyr, she slept in another bed. They were
newlyweds at that time, but she slept in another room. That kind of thing was like a humiliation to her.
However, she had to pretend that she wanted some private space on the outside, which led to that situation.
Only she knew that it was because Zephyr didn’t fully accept her that they slept in different rooms. It was as if he was telling her
silently that she could never enter his world.
Yet, he suddenly appeared at the door of her room.
“Who’s been taken away?” Zephyr asked Harriet coldly.
“It’s nothing. It’s just a trivial matter. I’ll ask someone to deal with it,” Harriet replied calmly.
Zephyr slowly walked into the room and approached Harriet. “Who is missing?”
That inquiry was actually more like questioning. She even felt that he had guessed something.
Harriet’s lips trembled slightly and she finally said reluctantly, “My sister.”
Zephyr pursed his thin lips and said, “I thought she was in the hospital. How could she be gone?”
“I... My parents and I took her out of the hospital. We wanted to transfer her to another hospital, but we hadn’t arranged for it yet,
so we put her in the mansion first. I didn’t expect that someone would take her away from the building.” Harriet mixed lies with
the truth.

Zephyr’s expression changed. “Why did you suddenly transfer her to another hospital? Why didn’t you mention this to me?”
“You don’t like listening to me, so I didn’t mention it.” Of course, there was no way Harriet could mention it. In fact, she wished he
would forget about Riley already.
Zephyr frowned as he wondered who would take Riley away.
Inexplicably, Warren and Amelia, who had been to his company before, appeared in his mind.
Consequently, he wondered if the woman who claimed to be a friend of Riley’s asked Warren to take Riley away.
As he was deep in thought, Harriet’s voice rang in his ear again. “I thought of someone who might’ve taken Riley away. Maybe it
was the lawyer named Rosalie that I met at the banquet before. She seemed to have an extraordinary relationship with Calvin,
and she talked a lot with Peach Johanson, someone’s wife of the Griffin family, at the banquet. She must want to know about
Riley and the Griffin family from Peach. Rosalie was also the one who visited Riley with two other people before!”
Harriet then pretended to be worried. “I’m so worried about my sister. I’m afraid of what they would do to her if they really
kidnapped her. They also claim to be friends of my sister. However, when I think about it, they never showed up to visit her
despite her being ill for so many years. It is very suspicious that they suddenly show up like this...”
“The Griffin family...” Zephyr’s voice was cold. For him, one taboo was Riley, and the other was the Griffin family.
After all, Nicholas, the youngest son of the Griffin family, was once hi good friend. However, Nicholas and his fiancée were also
the ones wh betrayed him.
At that time, he had also turned against Nicholas because of Riley.
Zephyr thought he could never forget what Nicholas told him back then
“Zephyr, you don’t know Riley at all. If you knew her, you wouldn’t have said such words to me today!” Nicholas had said back
then.
“What, are you saying you understand her? Including what she’s like in bed? Do you think she’s great in bed? So much so that
you’re obsessed with her? Unfortunately, she is just a woman I played with!” Zephyr exclaimed.

When Zephyr said that, Nicholas directly punched him. Naturally, Zephyr wasn’t going to take that lying down, so the two fought.
In the end, both of them got injured.
When Nicholas finally left, he just said, “Zephyr, you are really blind. To think I envied you! What a shame.”
Zephyr hadn’t realized what Nicholas meant yet, but the latter was already dead. Naturally, he wouldn’t be receiving an answer.
Thinking of that, Zephyr scowled. “You mean someone deliberately approached the people of the Griffin family for Riley?”
“Yeah...” Harriet said awkwardly. At that moment, Zephyr’s eyes made her inexplicably tremble. “I thought they were trying to
gossip, but I didn’t expect them to take Riley away.”
“I’ll find them! As long they’re still in Lommore, I’ll find them!” Zephyr said coldly and walked directly out of the room toward the
study. Harriet hurriedly followed and heard Zephyr order his subordinates to look for Riley on the phone. He even said to use the
Scott family’s power to locate Riley.
Harriet’s heart skipped a beat, and envy flashed past her eyes. Zephyr used so much power to look for Riley and even directly
asked his elders for a favor.
At that moment, Harriet couldn’t help but wonder why Zephyr was doing so much to locate Riley who betrayed him.
As such, Harriet suspected that perhaps Zephyr still cared about Riley some extent. If Zephyr did, perhaps his care for Riley had
transforme from one that was obvious to one that was more subtle.
Meanwhile, Rosalie sent Riley to the hospital that Wyatt already arran for and the doctor he hired. Then, Rosalie stood guard
outside the war
According to the doctor, producing a preliminary diagnosis would take a least three hours,
However, as long as the preliminary diagnosis showed that Riley was not a mentally ill patient, that was good enough. Even if the
people of the Summer family found out, there would be enough reasons to question whether they were suitable to be Riley’s
caretaker. They could also question the previous diagnosis so that Riley would be protected and free before making the final
diagnosis.

Guillermo had fallen asleep in Rosalie’s arms. Rosalie looked at the son
in her arms with a trace of pride on her face.
That night, her son was of great help.
Even at a young age, his abilities could not be underestimated.
