Her ability to scold meant that what just happened hadn’t affected her much. Daniel felt relieved.
“I feel much better, don’t worry. I just wanted to ask, where did Violette and Liam go? And Cloudy and Biscuit–we came back, but they
didn’t react at all?”
Daniel had walked to the dog house on the lawn when he finally realized what was wrong.
This villa was too quiet.
So quiet, it lacked any signs of life.
Emily hadn’t expected that, even while sick, Daniel would keenly notice something was off.
“Biscuit and Cloudy were drugged, but fortunately, it was just a sedative. I’ve already ordered medicine to wake them up–it’ll be delivered
soon. As for Violette…”
Emily’s expression darkened. “Rhett tricked Violette away, and Liam’s whereabouts are unknown. I’ve already sent people to investigate. But I can’t reach Atticus and Sofia. I need to go to their company or school in person to check on the situation.”
Originally, she hadn’t planned to tell Daniel, intending to handle it herself. She always felt she could manage.
But after investigating for a while with no news, her heart sank even more.
If Chase hadn’t suddenly appeared and interrupted, she would probably be heading to Atticus’s workplace and then Sofia’s school by now.
“You don’t need to go yourself. I’ll have York arrange for people to look for them separately!”
Daniel was worried about Emily, and he always wanted to help her more, not wanting her to work so hard.
“Alright, thank you then!”
Emily still needed people to find Liam’s whereabouts, so she really couldn’t waste time looking for Atticus and Sofia.
As for going to Rhett’s place to rescue people and force him to reveal Liam’s whereabouts, Emily didn’t plan to let Daniel know or
participate.
His current physical condition wasn’t suitable for any more stress.
Otherwise, before they could get the antidote ingredients, Daniel’s body might not hold up.
Afraid he wouldn’t listen, Emily added, “Be good and follow doctor’s orders. I’ll handle the other matters myself. I really don’t like patients

who don’t listen!
These words were quite effective.
Daniel didn’t dare say he wanted to accompany Emily to find Rhett.
Since he had come out, Emily decided to send him back to his own house to recuperate.
If Daniel had known this would be the result, he would have investigated privately instead.
Emily didn’t just think that since Daniel’s villa was next door, it was inconvenient and inappropriate for him to stay at her place.
She had another reason.
Fortunately, Chase had warned her; otherwise, she might have been too busy to think of it.
“Since Hayden has been rescued, I don’t plan to hand him over to the Johnson family for now–I don’t have time anyway. But to avoid trouble from people who don’t know better, I want to keep him at your place first. Do you have a convenient place that won’t be discovered to keep someone?”
