Caiden naturally understood the situation then but he was more worried about Joan’s safety.

“No, I must go, so don’t try stopping me!” As he said that, he forcefully shook off Jaden and promptly left.

“Hey, be careful! Let me remind you that you’re the only son of the Owens. Your parents will definitely be out for Joan Watts’ blood if anything happens to you!”

“Excuse me, have you seen this person?” Caiden asked a passerby while holding a photo in his hand.

“No, I haven’t; sorry.”

“Excuse me, have you seen this person?”

He traversed every single street. Not only did he fail to find any signs of Joan, but even the passersby claimed that they had not seen her.

Could it be that she’s never been here? But that’s impossible. Surveillance footage at the airport indicated that the flight she boarded was indeed headed here. He thumped his head hard as helplessness inundated him.

“Are you looking for someone, mister?” asked a little girl who suddenly came over to him.

Upon hearing that, Caiden slowly opened his eyes. Looking at the child in front of him, he nodded helplessly.

“I saw that lady but she has already left,” the little girl continued.

Huh? What did she just say? Caiden instantly whipped out the photo and sought confirmation while showing it to her.

“Little girl, you’re sure you’ve seen the person in the photo?”

“Yup, I’m sure! She even won a balloon for me two days ago, but she has left. She said she’s only here for a vacation with a friend,” the little girl asserted.

The lady she spoke of wasn’t alone, so it must be Joan, no doubt! If I remember correctly, Jaden told me that she set out with a friend.

“Did she tell you where she was going next?” Caiden inquired eagerly.

“No, but she said she was going to another country.”

“Baby!” a woman abruptly shouted a near distance away.

“Mister, I’ve got to go since my mother is calling me.” The girl then waved at him and left.

At that moment, Caiden was exceedingly dispirited.

Why couldn’t she go a little slower? And why didn’t she wait for me? We could’ve traveled together. With the photo in hand, he then continued chasing after Joan.

“Ow…” Nancy whimpered on the sofa with both hands clutching her stomach, her face contorted with pain.

“What’s wrong, Nancy? Are you not feeling well?” Joan asked worriedly as she hastily dashed over.

“It hurts, Joan. My stomach hurts so badly!” Nancy groaned.

In no time, cold sweat beaded on her face. At that, fear struck Joan and she immediately snagged her cell phone and called for help.

“Hang on, Nancy. The ambulance will be here soon, so don’t panic. Come on; take a deep breath,” Joan comforted as she grasped Nancy’s petite hand.

Perhaps the food we had yesterday was too stimulating that it gave her an upset stomach today?

Nancy lay on the hospital bed with her eyes closed; she was in deep sleep. Beside her, Joan was on pins and needles, afraid that something would happen to her.

“How is she doing, Doctor?”

“She’s fine but she needs to be careful about her diet. Also, it’s best that she stays home during this time as she needs adequate rest,” the doctor stated solemnly.

Oh, goodness, it’s all my fault! Guilt swamped Joan, and her eyes brimmed with regret. No, I can’t have her continue to accompany me like this! Otherwise, it’ll affect the baby inside her!

“What’s the matter, Joan? You seem rather downcast,” Nancy queried softly as she opened her eyes slowly.

“Let’s go home, Nancy,” Joan suggested.

“What are you talking about? No way! We’re finally on vacation; why are you now going back on your word? There are still a lot of countries left on our itinerary!” Nancy exclaimed in agitation.

Joan considered Nancy’s current condition and determined that they should not continue their trip.
