Chapter 384


    In the apartment.


    While preparing dinner, Maria could not help sighing when she saw the quiet living room.


    When Charlotte and her mom were here, the ce was always full of life andughter and the child’s


    innocent voice. But now...


    She could see that although Charlotte’s mom and Mark were constantly giving each other cold


    shoulder, they had feelings for each other.


    Mark was unsmiling and had an intimidating, stony face.


    But since Charlotte and Charlotte''s mom came along, things had been different. Maria could see a


    smile always hanging on Mark’s lips, his expression never this soft.


    They had been getting along like a happy family for the past few days.


    But now, s!


    Mark walked in just then, and the first thing he did was ask, "Are they back?"


    Maria shook her head. "I called Ms. Hartst night, and she agreed toe. But she hasn''te back


    yet."


    Mark''s brows were raised slightly. He spun his tall body around and walked out of the house. Maria


    quickly asked, "What about the dinner, Mr. Valentine?"


    "Carry on. I am going to get them." Mark was heard saying, but he was already out of Maria''s sight.


    He drove his ck Land Rover and sped toward the hotel.


    It took him only 15 minutes for the usual 20-minute journey. He parked up the car right outside the hotel


    a s he could not find a parking spot.


    He came straight into the lobby and walked up to the reception. The two hotel staff members were


    talking with each other and did not notice Mark''s arrival.


    Mark knocked on the counter with his knuckle, making a loud, crisp sound. His raised brows showed he


    was impatient. “May I know what is Summer Hart''s room number?"


    Thedy at the reception did not look up. "I am sorry, sir. We can''t divulge our guests'' details."


    "Call your manager." Mark''s voice went an octave higher.


    At this time, the twodies at the reception looked up and were stunned. "M-Mr. Valentine!"


    His charming face was calm as he repeated himself with a deep voice. "Call your manager." "A moment


    please. We will check the check-in information about Summer Hart for you right away." Onedy


    receptionist checked the guest registry on theputer. "Mr. Valentine, her room number is 1112."


    "Thank you,” Mark nodded at them before walking toward the elevator.

    But onedy said, "Mr. Valentine, Ms. Hart brought a little girl and went out this morning."


    Mark stopped in his tracks and took up his cell phone to call Summer.


    After a long while, the phone was finally picked up, and the feeble voice of a woman answered,


    "Hello?"


    Mark could hear something amiss in her voice. He frowned with his lips twitched. "Where are you and


    Charlotte?"
