After hanging up the phone, Emma immediately called back, but the call on the other end kept showing that the line was busy.
She threw away her phone irritably and put on her coat. "It's so late, Emma, where are you going?" Sophia's voice came.
"Mom, I'm going out. There's something going on at school..."
Sophia smiled lightly and straightened her collar.
"It's late at night and no matter how hurried you are, don't forget to take your medicine with you..."
"I heard the doctor say that you haven't taken your medicine recently."
Emma had congenital heart disease and has improved a lot after treatment, but now she still needs to take some auxiliary drugs.
Emma's eyes flashed, "I feel like I've gotten a lot better recently, I should be fine..."
"Emma."
"Do you know why I like you more than Crystal?"
Sophia has never concealed her partiality.
"Because you were raised by me, your feelings are naturally different. The second reason is..."
"You're smart enough."
Emma laughed, "But Crystal is also very smart..."
"Mom didn't mean that."
"Mom is saying that you are smart enough to know what is good for the Ford family, so you should do it, and what kind of thing is harmful to the Ford family, then you shouldn't do it..."
"Although we still don't know what the relationship between Crystal and Brondon is, it is not a good thing. If you get involved rashly, it will be harmful to the Ford family."
"Secondly, you like knowing the..."
"Mom!"
Ford's mother's expression flashed with a hint of understanding.
"Good boy, haven't you always been ashamed of Crystal and felt that you had robbed her of her life? Then you have to compete with her, lead the Ford family for her, and make some achievements?"
.....
Bird's Cliff is located on a high mountain peak. The thick mist in the mountains is colorful and permeates the green woods.
The car rented by Crystal was parked steadily in the woods. The driver seemed to have operated improperly or was too impatient, causing the front wheels to be buried deep in the mud.
An ordinary car with a black body is very difficult to distinguish among the misty trees.
Olivia led several people and violently broke down the door.
The smell of air freshener wafted out, and it could be seen that the car owner must be very clean, and the car was even cleaner. The search and rescue team went in and rummaged for a while but found almost nothing except the cushions.
But what's the use of cushions?
They had no choice but to expand their search scope.
There was a faint path in the woods where the car was parked. Olivia used a flashlight to observe carefully. The group of people walked carefully along the path.
The end of the path is a cliff.
Brondon's face changed. He was wearing a luxury brand scarf, his nervousness was all hidden under the scarf.
A few faint footprints were left on the edge of the cliff, which became very blurry over time. If Olivia wasn't careful enough, most people wouldn't be able to spot them.
Brondon was holding two pieces of clothes, his face was earth-colored.
He asked for these clothes from the Ford family. Sophia was surprised when she heard the request. Olivia said it would be beneficial to Brondon's treatment. After all, didn't Crystal bump into her last time? Anyway, she made up a random reason.
The reasons are the same.
Brondon's expression was indifferent. He didn't stay on the edge of the cliff for too long, didn't speak, and returned to the car.
He sat in the car, lowered his head slowly, and buried himself in Crystal's clothes.
He only knows that the clothes have a faint scent of smell which is already very light, but he persisted tirelessly.
Brondon commented lightly in his heart, "why did she leave me?"
Through the half-rolled car window, the subordinates could see the strange behavior of their boss. Harry was stunned, but they had never been qualified to intervene in Brondon's matter.
Harry came back to report.
"I've looked everywhere, but there's no trace of anything else except the car."
But there are no valuable clues on the car.
"This cliff is located at the junction of three towns. If we investigate them one by one, it will take a long time."
In other words, by the time their investigation is over, Crystal may have gone elsewhere.
In fact, there is another possibility, but they are tacitly silent about this possibility because Brondon does not want to hear it, so everyone dares not say it.
"...Let's look for it again."
Brondon said lightly.
But where to find it?
Harry was a little confused.
The cliff is here, with the rapid river below, and the car is parked nearby. Could it be that Miss Ford can turn into a bird with wings and fly away?
Olivia winked at him.
Perhaps Brondon meant to search the cliff.
Before Brondon could give the order, several thunders suddenly sounded in the sky, and ferocious lightning swept across violently. Brondon stared at the sky blankly, without any reaction.
A sudden heavy rain dampened everyone's enthusiasm. Everyone had not eaten yet. Olivia distributed instant noodles and bread to everyone, but there was no water, so they could only eat the noodles.
