Buying My Forever Wife novel Chapter 183

Alaric was still busy at the office.

Seeing Ivy's incoming call, he didn't ignore it, picking up his phone to answer.

From the other end of the line came Ivy's frantic, tearful voice.

"Alaric, I... I brought Stella to Metropolitan General to see my sister, and... and she suddenly disappeared. I can't find her anywhere."

"What did you say?"

Alaric shot up from his chair, shouting into the phone in a sudden fit of rage.

"Why didn't you watch her properly? Ivy, if anything happens to Stella, you're dead."

He hung up and immediately ordered his men to start searching.

Ivy could hear the sheer fury in Alaric's voice.

She knew exactly how important Stella was to him.

And in Ivy's own heart, Stella was practically family.

Ivy didn't even dare to imagine the consequences of Stella going missing.

Trembling with terror, she followed Parker to the security room, practically out of her mind, only for the administrator to deliver a crushing blow.

"The system is undergoing an upgrade today. None of the cameras are on."

Hearing this, Ivy nearly collapsed from shock.

Parker managed to catch her just in time.

"Are you okay?"

Ivy quickly pushed him away, stumbling desperately as she rushed off to continue the search.

She checked every single office in the department, but still couldn't find her. Everyone she asked said they hadn't seen a thing.

It was as if the child had vanished into thin air, entirely without a trace.

Ivy was at a total loss, her legs trembling so violently she could barely stand.

Parker reached out to support her. "Don't worry, she'll be fine."

Ivy was in a daze, her heart in her throat.

Before she could push the man away again, she looked up and saw Alaric striding hurriedly toward them.
