Meanwhile, Francis immediately contacted the customer service of Bourgeois. After he explained the situation, the service staff immediately called Felicia. When Felicia heard the news, she quickly recalled that May and Anastasia were together, so she quickly called May.
Anastasia was checking the information and making a detailed record of it. May was sitting next to her when she heard the phone ringing, so she picked it up and saw that it was from Felicia. Hence, she quickly connected the call and said, “Hello, Felicia.”
“Is Anastasia with you?”
“Yes, she’s beside me.”
“Let her answer the phone.”
May handed the phone to Anastasia. “Felicia is asking for you.”
Anastasia reached out and took the phone. “Hello, Felicia.”
“Anastasia, I just received a call from the service desk. Your dad called while saying that your son got lost and asked you to contact him quickly.”
The documents in Anastasia’s hands slipped and fell to the ground when she heard the news. Her face went pale as she said shakily, “What? My son got lost?”
The man who was reading the news on his phone beside them raised his handsome face suddenly, and his pupils constricted upon seeing Anastasia’s frightened face.
Then, Anastasia picked up May’s phone and said, “Lend me your phone, May.”
After speaking, she dialed her father’s number with trembling fingers.
“Hey!” Francis’ frantic voice was on the other end. “Is this Anastasia?”
“Dad, where did Jared go missing? Where are you?” Anastasia was so worried that she broke out in cold sweat.
“Near the playground. Erica and I decided to bring him here, but he suddenly went missing. Anastasia… I’m sorry… I…” Francis was so anxious at the end that he choked up and almost burst into tears.
Losing a child was a serious matter!
When Anastasia heard that Erica was there too, she instantly understood that it was not her father who lost her son, but Erica who had used some means to cause her son to go missing.
“Anastasia, does Jared remember your number? Why didn’t you pick up your phone?”
Anastasia immediately opened her bag, but there was no phone in it. She was completely baffled. Where is my phone? Where did it go?
She clearly remembered it lying in her bag, and her son remembered her phone number too. Hence, she believed that her son was smart enough to find someone and try to call her.
“Dad, I’ll go back to the company and look for my phone. Don’t worry! Jared will be fine. If you find him, call this phone number. I’ll go back to the company first.”
After Anastasia finished speaking, she begged Elliot who was sitting on the sofa and said, “President Presgrave, will you take me back to the company? I’m in a hurry.”
“Let’s go!” Of course, Elliot knew that she was in a hurry. After all, her son was lost.
Thus, Anastasia picked up her bag and followed Elliot out quickly. As for May, she sat on the sofa and secretly wiped the sweat from her brow. So, was this why Hayley had asked her to remove Anastasia’s phone?
Has Anastasia lost her son?
Although Anastasia remained calm and rational, she didn’t feel optimistic. She sat in the passenger seat in Elliot’s car as they drove toward the company immediately.
Anastasia was so anxious that tears brimmed in her eyes. She held onto May’s phone, hoping that her father would have good news for her soon.
“Your son looks very smart, so he will be fine.” While comforting her, Elliot weaved past the other cars deftly, and the black car rushed all the way to the Bourgeois Building.
When the car came to the entrance, Anastasia pushed open the front passenger’s door and hurried toward the steps, but because she was in a hurry, she tripped and fell. Upon hitting her left leg on the sharp corner of the steps, she felt pain shooting through her leg and it hurt so badly she couldn’t stand up for a while.
At this moment, a strong arm wrapped around her waist and lifted her up. Elliot wanted to check her injury, but she limped away from him and continued to run up the steps.
Then, Anastasia knocked on the entrance door anxiously. The security guard on duty inside recognized her and hurriedly opened the door for her, but he was even more surprised that Elliot was right behind her.
After that, Anastasia walked all the way to the elevator. As she pressed the elevator button, she was trembling nervously while blood oozed from her knee.
Elliot glanced coldly at her. When the elevator arrived, Anastasia rushed in, and he also stepped forward with long legs.
“Jared will be fine. Jared will be fine. Although he is young, he is very smart… No, my son will not be in trouble.” Anastasia was about to lose her mind and her body was about to collapse; she couldn’t help but murmur to herself as if trying to comfort herself.
In the depths of Elliot’s eyes, there was a hint of distress that he himself didn’t even realize. Soon, the elevator stopped at the design department floor. Then, Anastasia rushed out and went straight to her office. She dialed her own number with May’s phone and heard her phone ringing from the corner of the sofa.
After digging into the sofa, Anastasia took out her phone with trembling hands. As she opened it up, she noticed 16 missed calls. Except for her father’s contact, there was an unknown number who had called multiple times. She held her breath and hurriedly called the number back.
Soon, the other end answered. “Hello?”
“Hello, did a child call this number with your phone?”
“Yes, are you the mother of the child?”
“I am. Is my son by your side?”
“Yes, I had him wait for you in my store. Don’t worry, he’s fine and I’ll watch over him.” The female voice on the other end sounded very young but kind.
The boulder weighing down on Anastasia’s chest was finally lifted, and at this moment, her son’s tender voice came to her ear.
“I’m fine, Mommy. Don’t worry.”
“Jared… My baby…” Anastasia’s emotions were in turmoil at this moment, and her tears slipped down her cheeks. “My baby! Thank God! I’m going to pick you up right now.”
“Don’t cry, Mommy. I’m fine.” The little boy comforted her from the other end.
