Something seemed to have alarmed Maxwell when he grabbed Sunny's hand and said, "Hurry! Take me back to that floor!"
Sunny looked at Maxwell with confusion. "Dad, what's going on? Do you know that little girl?"
Maxwell did not have time to explain. Instead, he just said, "Just get me up there now! We need to find out which ward that girl is in!" Seeing Maxwell's urgency, Sunny did not press further. He stepped back into the elevator and pressed the button for the previous floor. Once they arrived, Maxwell immediately walked out of the elevator. "Sunny, which way did you see the little girl go?"
Sunny pointed in a particular direction and replied, "That way."
Maxwell immediately strode toward that direction, checking each ward as he went.
Meanwhile, Emily was eating the supper Melinda brought her on her bed. For some reason, she had jolted awake in the middle of the night with her heart racing. She felt a strong sense of unease and an inexplicable worry for Corinne.
However, she hesitated to call Corinne as it was already midnight, yet her inner anxiety prevented her from returning to sleep. In fact, Corinne had visited her until late at night, but she could not help but think something bad had happened to her daughter.
Melinda was worried about Emily, so she ordered supper for her to divert her attention.
She was truly a good friend. There was no awkwardness between her and Emily due to Adam's arrest. They were open with each other, and their relationship was back to how it used to be.
"Emily, stop zoning out. Eat your food while it's still hot! Don't worry. Corinne is a lucky one, and she'll be just fine! You can't let a nightmare make you so anxious. Plus, Corinne isn't alone right now. Jeremy is there with her. Everything will be okay!"
Melinda's caring voice brought Emily back to reality. She forced a smile and nodded.
'Melinda's right. It's just a nightmare, and Moonie will be fine. I shouldn't overthink it. I'll just go to sleep after supper. I can give Moonie a call once it's daylight,' thought Emily.
Emily forced herself to calm down. After a few spoonfuls of stew, her chest tightened inexplicably again, making it hard to swallow.
Noticing Emily's discomfort, Melinda asked, "What's wrong? Emily, are you okay? Should I call the doctor?"

Emily set aside the bowl, placed her hand on her chest, and took a deep breath. "It's okay Melinda. It's too late αν to bother the doctor. I just... I just feel a bit uneasy, probably because of the nightmare earlier. I'm okay." Visit bignovels.com to read the latest chapter of this novel
