Chapter 752
"You''re the idiot! You married one, I don''t understand why you''re proud."
Nathanielughed at Mango''s sarcastic words.
"Well, we don''t have time to fool around. Get up and get ready. We''re going to the nursing home."
"Why are we going there?"
Mango was not fully awake yet.
"Are you nning to find a ce for our retirement this quickly?"
"Mango, are you still asleep? Please wake up!"
Nathaniel grabbed Mango''s head and shook it lightly. Mango felt dizzy from the shaking.
"Nathaniel Ye, what are you doing?"
"Are you awake yet?"
"Are you mad? You''re as childish as Walter!"
Mango felt that Nathaniel was bing more like a child in front of her.
Then, she pushed Nathaniel away and frowned slightly.
Nathaniel said with a smile, "Oh, by the way, it was Walter who called. He said that Carter went to
visit his mother Sophia and he was afraid that she would hurt herself, so he asked us to go take a
look. You know, if it weren''t for you, I wouldn''t care about this. Are you going or not? If you don''t
want to, then I''m going back to work."
Upon hearing this, Mango quickly grabbed Nathaniel by his arm and said, "I''ll go! Why didn''t you tell
me earlier?"
"I wanted to let you rest a little longer. Mango, you''re really energetic when ites to Walter."
Nathaniel said enviously.
As she heard this, Mango held his head and gave it a kiss.
"Aw, don''t be jealous. Walter is far away in Nakasara. It takes at least six or seven hours for him to
come back. What if something happens to Aunt Sophia? This is a matter of life and death. Wait for
me, I''ll go change and we can go out."
Mango rushed to the changing room in a flurry as she said this.
Nathaniel shook his head with a smile and touched the spot where Mango had kissed him.
Yup.
That felt nice!
Then, he changed his clothes with a silly smile on his face. After waiting for some time, Mango was
ready.

Lets go.
"Nathan, do we need to buy some fruits or supplements for Aunt Sophia?"
Mango asked a little anxiously.
"No, Sophia doesn''t recognize anyone right now. Let''s just go and see if she is okay. We can leave
the other things to Walter when hee back."
Nathaniel''s words made Mango a little hesitant.
"Would that really be okay?"
"Let''s buy some fruit, then."
"Nathaniel, you''re just brushing me off!"
Mango finally saw through Nathaniel''s insincere attitude.
Nathaniel shrugged his shoulders and said, "Come on, we''re going there to see if Aunt Sophia''s
doing okay, not to visit our inws. Why are you being so nervous?"
"Ugh, what are you saying?"
Mango red at Nathaniel before they left the house.
Although Nathaniel had been curt just now, he still bought some supplements on the way there.
Mango discovered that Nathaniel enjoyed acting rather arrogant on the outside now.
When they arrived at the nursing home, they directly told the nurse their names and Walter''s
request, but the nurse seemed particrly flustered.
"Mr. Ye, Mrs. Ye, I''m sorry, but Madam Liu is missing."
Mango and Nathaniel were both stunned at this.
"What do you mean by ''missing''?"
Mango asked worriedly.
The nurse was so anxious that she was about to cry.
"After Mr. Song left, I went into the room to check. Madam Liu was still sitting in front of the window.
But when I came back from the toilet, she was gone. We have surveince cameras here, but we
didn''t see Madam Liuing out of the room. What should I do? Sir Walter would kill me."
The nurse cried so hard that her face was covered with tears.
"Wait a minute. You said that Sophia didn''t leave her room? How could you be so sure that she
hadn''t left the room?"
Nathaniel asked hurriedly.
The nurse wiped her tears and said, "We have checked the footage. There was no trace that
Madam Liu hade out of her room at all, but how could she have disappeared? It''s impossible!"

"Take us to the security room."
Nathaniel''s intuition told him that something was up.
Then, Mango followed Nathaniel and the nurse to the security room.
The footage was still being yed inside.
Nathaniel began to check from the beginning, where he found that there was indeed a problem in
the footage.
"Look, the time here doesn''t fit with the time at the back. There is a part where a few minutes of the
footage was lost, and it must have been tweaked by someone. It has been edited to match the time
in front to make it look seamless. But the problem is exposed in the timestamp right here. Without
taking a closer look, it can''t be spotted at all. Sophia must have been taken away by someone.
Moreover, they have edited all the important footage away. The people in this room may know
where Sophia is. Who was on duty during this period? Where are they?"
Nathaniel''s analysis was clear to the director of the hospital and the nurse.
"Hadley Zhang is on duty today. When I came over to check the surveince, he happened to have
gone to the bathroom."
The director''s words made Nathaniel frown
slightly.
"Send someone to detain him quickly. If I''m right, he should be trying to escape right now."
Hearing Nathaniel''s words, the director quickly sent people to find him, but unfortunately, they were
toote.
"Call the police and arrest Hadley."
Then, the director quickly called the police.
Just as the police were on their way, Hadley was in a car ident and he died on the spot.
All the clues were cut off from here.
Mango''s brows knitted tightly together.
"It looks like all of this was premeditated. The person behind this might''ve already seen all of this
coming. Who would do something like this?"
"Let''s not focus on who is responsible first. You should tell Walter about this. I don''t think this can be
kept from him for long."
Nathaniel sighed.
In the end, they hadn''t managed to help him at all.
Mango was a little upset. She took a deep breath and collected herself before she called Walter.
"Walter, listen to me. Don''t freak out. Nathan and I went to the nursing home, but we didn''t get to
visit Aunt Sophia. She disappeared."
"What do you mean she disappeared?"
Walter''s voice broke on the other end.
Mango knew that Sophia meant a lot to Walter, but she wasn''t able to be of any help.
"When Nathan and I came here, the nurse said that Aunt Sophia had not left the room, but Nathan
saw from the surveince camera that someone had tweaked the footage. Hadley Zhang, the
person who was on duty, was killed in a car crash just as we were looking for him. Everything is so
coincidental. We really don''t know where Aunt Sophia is right now. I''m so sorry."
Hearing Mango''s words, Walter''s fists clenched tightly together.
"It''s not your fault. I''m taking the next flight back."
After that, Walter hung up the phone.
Mango looked at Nathaniel, depressed as she said, "What should we do? He''s probably going crazy
right now. He''s just gone through a heartbreak, and now Aunt Sophia has gone missing, when will
God finally let him go?"
"Everything would be solved sooner orter. Don''t worry."
"I know, but it breaks my heart to see him like this."
Mango leaned into Nathaniel''s embrace and whispered, "Is there anything we can do for him?" "I
don''t think there is. He can only settle things himself once he''s back."
Mango didn''t reply, and she returned home with Nathaniel.
Meanwhile, after Walter had ended the call with Mango, he called Carter at once.
"Did you do it?"
"Do what? Walter, watch your attitude. I am your father!"
Carter was very dissatisfied with Walter interrogating him.
"If you weren''t my dad, I would have shot you already. Was it you? Did you ask someone to take my
mother away from the nursing home? Where did you take her?"
Walter''s words stunned Carterpletely.
"Your mother has been taken away?"
"Don''t y dumb. Who else could it be? My mom has been living well in the nursing home all these
years, but she disappeared just as you left. If you''re saying that it has nothing to do with you, would
you even believe it yourself? I''m telling you, Carter Song, if anything happens to my mom, you''re
done for!"
After saying that, Walter hung up the phone.
On the other end, Carter was frozen in ce.
Sophia was missing?
How was this possible?
Who would take Sophia away?
Could it be that woman at home?
Then, Carter rushed home immediately before grabbed Mrs. Song''s wrist, and asked, "Did you send
someone to take Sophia away? You are already Mrs. Song. I have taken care of everything for you.
Apart from that marriage certificate, what else are you dissatisfied with? Sophia has gone mad. She
is now an old woman in her declining years. Why can''t you just let her go?"
Mrs. Song felt a little dizzy as Carter was shaking her as he yelled.
"What are you saying? Why would I take Sophia away? Do you think I have the time? Your son
Walter is practically a demon. If I dared to touch his mother, he would never let me live! I haven''t
lived my life to the fullest yet. I wouldn''t have done something this stupid."
"It wasn''t you?"
Carter was stunned.
"If it wasn''t you, then who else would take Sophia away? What do they want to do with her?"
Mrs. Song pushed Carter away and said angrily,
"How would I know? I''m not them."
Carterpletely panicked.
"If you didn''t take her away, then this is something serious."
"What do you mean? What happened?"
Mrs. Song still didn''t know what was all the fuss about.
Carter dropped onto the sofa and said, "I went to visit her for the first time in so many years. Why
did she just go missing like that? Walter wouldn''t believe me no matter what right now. It would be
fine if nothing happens to her, but if something did happen, how am I supposed to exin it to my
son?"
"That''s your son, not your father! Look at yourself right now."
Mrs. Song''s anger red as she listened. Then, she went upstairs so that she didn''t need to deal
with him anymore.
Carter, on the other hand, couldn''t stay calm.
He sent out many people to look for Sophia, but unfortunately, there was no news of her as if she
had vanished off the face of the earth.
When Walter returned, Nathaniel had already turned Ocean City upside down, but there was still no
sign of Sophia.
Mango had also been searching on her own, but in the end, she was so exhausted that Nathaniel
had sent her home to rest by force.
Soon after, Walter returned when the sun had already set.
He let out an eerie and cold aura as if he was a wild animal stalking prey in the dark. He went
straight to the Song family''s house, kicked the door open, and picked Mrs. Song up from the bed.
"Where''s my mother?"
Right now, Walter was like a madman. His bloodshot eyes were so scary that they made Mrs. Song
shiver.
"What are you talking about? I don''t even know where your mother is!"
"Walter, she really doesn''t know anything. I have sent people out there to look for your mother.
Although there is no news about her yet, there are a few clues. Let go of her first."
As he heard Carter''s words, Walter immediately looked at him.
"What clues? Tell me!"
