CHAPTER 20

I sat back on the couch.
"How do you plan to proceed from here?"
"Nothing," I said.

"Are you looking for her?"

"I order my employees to locate her," I said, but when the hospital called, I was taken aback.

"Hello, what's up?" I'll asked.

"Sir, your father-in-law is missing," said the female nurse on the other end of the line.

"How did that happen?" I wondered.

"Just go to the hospital, sir," the nurse said as she hung up the phone.

I exhaled a sigh. My problem has not yet been resolved. What became of Mr. Herardo? What happened to him? When I see him again, I'll make certain that he dies in prison.
I bid him farewell and said,
"I'm leaving first, just going somewhere."

He nodded in response. I rushed into my car and drove as quickly as I could to the hospital. The nurse who was watching Mr. Herardo suddenly appeared in front of my car.

"Would you mind telling me what happened?"

"Because your wife said she was going to see her daddy when she got here, sir, and she'll go out and take her father inside the hospital to smell the fresh air. I would not have agreed as you requested, but when she says you are aware of this, I nod. We only saw the wheelchair outside the hospital, however."

"Wait, what? Have you seen the security cameras?"
"Yes, sir, She rode in the taxi with her father. And all we know is that she ran away and took her father with her," the nurse exclaimed.
Heather smacked my ego once again. I had planned to use Mr. Herardo to get her back into my life.
But he seems to have preceded me. I just shook my head. He really planned everything, as if he already knew what I was going to do. I shook my head. I left the hospital and went to Henry’s house. I arrived at Isabella. Based on how he looks now, it seems to have gone away.
"Oh, Clarence, did you get a visit today? If you look at me, I seem to know something about Georgina's whereabouts. I usually call her, but I can't contact her. "
Are you aware of your sister's actions? She was the one who got your father out of the hospital yesterday."
"What? Georgina is incapable of doing so."
"No matter how many times you cover up what your sister is doing, she's clearly visible on the hospital's CCTV."
Isabella fell silent and drove away from Henry's house. I have a hunch Heather and I will meet. But she stopped at an establishment that looked like clothes were for sale. So I never got out of my car. I just looked at who the people who entered the establishment were.
But Georgina didn't show up there, so I returned home.
In the living room, I'm now facing Daddy. He eats by himself. I explained everything to him what happened.
"As a result of my actions, you were injured emotionally today. If destiny wants me to leave the world, it's to atone for my actions and pay my sins.Do you realize what you did was incorrect? "
"Daddy, if I won't take you away, you'll never be able to come out, So you can eat well since we're leaving New York. We'll go to the place where you'll be treated and healed, "I informed him. He gave me a friendly smile.
"Heather, you're not obligated to treat me. I'm in a bad way. I know I'm not going to get any better."
"No! No matter how heinous the sin you have committed, I will simply leave you in the hospital to die. Listen to what I have to say, Daddy. You have to live. You have to fight. I'm ready to confront whatever hindrance are only you recover from your disease,"
I said as I got out of my seat.
"I hadn't even noticed your thoughtfulness until now. Georgina, please accept my apologies. "
"Forget about what occurred back then, Daddy, we're going to start over." I said.
My father smiled and nodded.
I had no idea where Allen was because he was nowhere to be found when I awoke.
When I saw his taxi stop in front of the house, I decided to go out.
"What have you been up to?" I asked him.
"I just went there, and I'm happy to report that I've already found a sponsor for your Daddy," Allen stated.
"Thank you so much, Allen; you truly fell from the skies for my father and me."
"It's nothing; you'll have to pack tonight because you're flying to Paris for the operation," Allen explained.
"Are you coming?" I asked. Allen burst out laughing.
" I'm not part of the sponsorship, so I'll be left behind; I'll simply took you out later."
"Okay, "
I went back inside the house and packed.
"Wait, Georgina. This is your daddy's dress. I bought it earlier, "said Allen.
"Does he have money?" I asked in a startled tone.
"There is. Because he gave me money earlier," Allen answered me.
So I took ten paper bags and went inside the house.
"Daddy, This is what I get from Allen. This is so many clothes.Do you have any money? " I asked him.
"Yes, That's what Asher gave me when I left. I didn't use it. I still have the others, so hide them first. "
Then Daddy handed over the black sling bag. I opened it and saw a lot of money. So I went inside the bedroom and hid it inside my sling bag. I picked up my phone and saw that my sister Isabella had missed calls and had a message stating that the two of us needed to meet.
So I got dressed and left the room.
"Daddy, Allen. I'll be leaving in a minute. " I said to the two of them.
They nodded in response. I left the house and looked for a taxi to take me to the place where my sister was waiting. I got out of the car then and looked around to see if someone had followed me. I went into the boutique and looked for my sister. She pulled me into the botique office.
"What are we doing here?" I asked.
"Sit down. Of course, I own this boutique, so it's okay for us to talk here, " she said to me.
"Seriously? When else have you had a botique? " I asked her.
"I'm going to surprised you but I was the one get surprised by what you did. Are you thinking? Why you took daddy away to the hospital? Asher also suspected me that we would meet. So he followed me earlier when I left Henry's house. "
Did you know he's already looking for you? So whatever you do he'll really find you."
"That's why I took daddy to the hospital because I knew he would bait daddy so I could go back to his life." I said.
"Yes, we're already there. It's okay for you to leave his life because you were hurt but you still brought daddy."
"If you can see daddy die, I can't!" my voice was raised.
"At least I'll try to treat him in case it's not really possible. I won't feel guilty." I said.
My sister was silent.
"And then I don't blame you because you didn't do anything to daddy. It's okay. Because of what I'm going to do, you won't be involve. And by the way. Does you and Atty. Jonas live in one roof?"
My sister's eyes rolled.
"Where do you want me to live, in the mansion? I don't want to. Maybe they think something of Clarence and me if we live in the mansion together."
By the way, Where do you live now?"
"We rented an apartment. Daddy has money. "My answer.
I noticed that my sister had taken an envelope from the drawer and placed it in my hand.
"What is this?" I asked.
"That's money for you to use as long as you need something. Just tell me. Even if Clarence squeezes me, I won't tell him where you are, " she says.
"Thanks, I'm leaving."
"Be careful," she said to me.
I hurried out of the boutique and walked around to find a place to ride. Because I feel like Clarence will see me anytime. I got in after a taxi stopped in front of me.
When the taxi in front of Allen's house stop, I immediately ran into the house.
"Why are you out of breath and the amount of sweat on your face? Are you okay? "
When he caught up with me in the living room, Allen asked me. I nodded in response.
I'm here now in Henry's office.
"Do you have a work in the office? You're so busy, but miraculously you're here now staring in front of me."
"Shut up, Jonas!"
Jonas laughs.
"Oh, common. Even if you stare at me all night, you won't get any news from me, "he said to me.
My answer was, "All my men already looking for her, so you don't have to find an excuse to get me out of here."
"Seriously? Where else? "
"Around Los Angeles, I know she's just hiding in the city. And you know, she ran away from the hospital with his daddy. " I said.
"When?"
"Yesterday afternoon, It was obvious on the CCTV that she boarded the taxi. "
"I didn't know that when her voice came back, she also became clever. She stamps your ego. "
"I know that soon I will be able to find her too. And I doubt that someone will help her. She is not the kind of person who will act on her own because she is used to depending on other people. " I said.
"What if she really changed? She was inspired by the pain she experienced from you. " I fell silent.
"I lost my family because of what her father did? Why did everyone blame me? "
"Why don't you forgive to make yourself feel better? Let's say you've already retaliated, but the question is, are you happy? I know you're not. " I sighed.
Maybe he has a reason why he ran away from the hospital with his daddy. Even if you are in his situation, no matter how much sin your daddy committed, you will do the same. When you can do something, you will not let him die.

"Your daddy is in the hospital without you trying to treat him," said Henry.

"Even I will do the same just in case. Because his daddy is the only parent left. That's why.

"You're on their side now because Isabella slept first, "I said.

" I'm not as bitter as you are in life, so what did you get? Georgina left you when you loved her. If you didn't want to marry her, you wouldn't have gotten married before. Damn you, Jonas. You added pain to how I feel! " I shouted.

Just laugh it off. And by the way, Cecilia and I are planning to get married. You're my best man," said Jonas.

"I do not want to, "I said.

"Force yourself then." I'm frowning. I won't go because I don't want to remember my fake marriage with Georgina. Then it got to the point where I was regretting everything I had done.But I'm doing everything I can to find her, but where can I find her?
If I were you you would just let him think because women's minds are so unpredictable. If he really loves you he will come back. So for now you will let him leave your life. Because you really can't find the person who doesn't look you. "
I sighed. I'm tired and I wanted to sleep all day, but I didn't want to since my mind kept on thinking about Georgina.
