Chapter 1174 Her IV drip had been removed.

Where was she? “Carol.” Clark burst out of the room, immediately rushing to ask the nurse on that floor, ‘Where did the patient in bed 308 go?" “I have no idea." Carol had already been out of danger since last night, shifted from the ICU to a regular ward. It was the early Morning shift change, and no nurse had noticed where she had gone.

Clark was anxious, suddenly remembering what Carol had mentioned earlier. She'd said: Yesterday at the ICU door.

Even though she hadn't finished her sentence, Clark had a bad feeling. She must have overheard his conversation with his parents and decided to leave.

He frantically hit the elevator's down button, but seeing it still stuck on the 21st floor, with no sign of moving, he tan down the stairs, searching everywhere once he reached the ground floor.

“Carol.

People were everywhere, the falling snowflakes as dense as feathers, obstructing his vision.

Clark's eyes turned red, and among the crowd, he couldn't find his Carol.

Ignoring the biting cold wind that made his wounds ache, he pulled out his cell phone, repeatedly dialing Carol's number.

The automated voice just kept saying: I'm sorry, the number you have dialed is switched off.

She had turned off her phone.

She was missing again! Tears started to fill Clark's eyes, this feeling was too similar to when she had disappeared before.

He was desperate, not knowing where to find her.

Would Carol go back to the Mystic Oak House to pack her things if she was leaving? Thinking of this, Clark rushed out of the hospital, nearly getting hit by a taxi. He opened the passenger door, "Mystic Oak House, fast!" The taxi driver looked puzzled, "Sorry, sir, there's still a passenger in the backseat." Clark turned to see a women holding her feverish child, on their way to the hospital.

The young mother, startled by Clark's urgency and red eyes, quickly got out of the car with her child.

“Please step on it.” Clark, suddenly recalling something, pulled out his phone again, calling the staff at Mystic Oak House, "Has Carol returned?" “Huh? Has she returned? | haven't seen her." The housekeeper sensed something was off in Clark's tone, quickly tesponding, “I might have been busy and didn't notice. I'll get speople to look around." The mansion was huge. If Carol wanted to avoid the staff, with her agility, it was entirely possible.

“If you see her, you must stop her." "Yes." After hanging up, Clark urged the driver again, to which the driver responded helplessly, "I'm already going as fast as | can"" Finally arriving at Mystic Oak House, Clark dashed in, grabbing the first staff member he saw, "Has Carol returned?" “No, I've checked the surveillance. She didn't cback." "She's not here." Clark rushed to the bedroom. Everything was as usual.

The mention of "surveillance" by the staff reminded him of something he had overlooked in his panic! He immediately accessed the hospital's surveillance for that floor, discovering Carol had left by herself, pushing open the fire escape door while he was out getting breakfast.

No one in the corridor had noticed her then.
