Chapter 232
Isella quickly ducked down. It was Carynne. She calmed her pounding heart and hoped they would pass by quickly. She wasn’t ready to face Carynne yet.
But the two continued their conversation right above her.
“Miss Isella has been missing since this morning. I had something to discuss with her…”
“Actually, I had an appointment with Miss Isella today, but she didn’t show up, so I came here.”
“What? She has an appointment with you, Sir Zion?”
Oops.
The person speaking with Carynne was Zion. Isella realized that she had forgotten her date with Zion because she had been so preoccupied with Carynne. They were supposed to visit an artist’s salon together today. Isella felt resentful toward Carynne.
“When did you last see her?”
“Well, we visited the hospital together yesterday… Miss Isella said she would head back first… When I came out, she was already gone… Oh my, I haven’t seen her since.”
“Are you saying she didn’t come back last night?”
Zion’s voice grew urgent.
