Chapter 1287
The city tonight was filled with breaking news.
The news of Nicole and Sam’s secret marriage overwhelmed the reports about fashion week—half of
the news headlines in Bayside City were about the bombing incident during the fashion week while the
other half were about her secret marriage.
Sam knew what he would soon have to face, but he was not afraid of it. The worst case scenario would
be him turning his back on the Edwards Family and he did not mind giving up thest name of
‘Edwards’ to rece it with ‘Walker’. For the sake of their child, Nicole, and his family, he had to put up
a fight.
Everyone was busy tonight. A lot of things recently happened in the Edwards Family—on one hand, it
was the marriage of the head of Edwards Family, Jordan, and on the other hand, there was the
exposure of Sam’s secret marriage.
Jordan currently did not have the time to deal with all those matters as he only had Anna in his head.
“Annie! Has anyone seen Annie?”
He frantically looked everywhere for her. Unfortunately, there was no sign of her either inside or outside
the hall.
Lucy had not left yet—she had been dealing with the aftermath of the incident and watched as the
ambnces took the injured guests away.
The Yard brothers were stupefied by the trampling. Their faces were full of shoe prints as they moaned
in pain while being carried into the ambnce. Sandra was in a simr situation as well—she was hit
on her face when the crowd swarmed in her direction.
Lucy had to keep track of the injured people’s conditions. All the guests who attended Jordan’s
engagement were all influential people from wealthy families, politicians, or celebrities. Every single
one of them was not an ordinary person. Therefore, she needed to follow up on their conditions and
comfort them.
He had not been managing the Edwards Family’s matters in recent years and Sam did not have any
intention to intervene with all those as well while Ian, who had been spiritless after the blow of having to
undergo a circumcision,cked the capability to do so. Hence, she was the one managing the Edwards
Family’s matters all along. At that moment, Jordan was busy looking for Anna, which resulted in Lucy
having to clean up the mess.
She already had her hands full—appeasing the media,forting the guests, and calcting their
losses. After attending two consecutive fashion shows in a day, she now had to deal with that matter
without having the chance to have any rest. On top of that, she had been having so manyte nights
before the fashion week. Therefore, she was so exhausted that she found it hard to keep her eyes
open.
What troubled her the most was the fact that it was only the first day of the fashion week and with six
more days to go. Today’s incident had scared many guests off, so she had to make sure that
everything went well in the subsequent days.
When she was exhausted to the point where she struggled to keep her eyes open, she raised her head
and saw Dana, who was not far away.
Lucy found that no matter when she nced at her, thetter would always pretend that she happened
to be about 10 meters away and did not know her.
Just like that, Dana had protected and apanied Lucy in secret.
Tonight, Lucy’s nominal fiancée was at the scene as well. However, as soon as the explosion urred,
he fled without leaving any trace. Hmmm… That’s another reason to get rid of him.
After that, the Edwards Family would choose another fiancée for her and she would approach that
person, attract his attention, and pretend to fall in love with him.
She could not stop; she had to feign that she was actively searching for a fiancée to prevent the
Edwards Family from discovering her rtionship with Dana.
Although the Winston and Edwards Family had matching family backgrounds and Dana’s father was
the most authoritative elder in the former besides Harry, the outsiders still knew Dana as a youngdy
of the Winston Family despite her having a frivolous character!
However, she was not ady—she was a man and had been since young. She had a man’s sense of
responsibility, a man’s courage, and a man’s masculinity. In fact, she was way better than any other
man—she had never been a woman!
…
Jordan ignored the chaotic situation before him; all he had in mind was Anna.
He found Callum and Cade, who told him that they had not seen her since they were separated by the
crowd.
Nobody had seen Anna.
Jordan ran into the security room to find her through the surveince tape. Unfortunately, there were
blind spots that were not caught on camera. The recordings only captured the part where Anna and
Callum were separated by the flow of the crowd and could not locate where she had been brought
to. Where has she gone?
All of a sudden, a name crossed his mind—Cooper.
As he did not have Cooper’s contact number, he directly called Tiffany while getting his men to search
for the area where Michael and the others had gone.
She had left the scene, but she was still in shock. “Jordan, why are you looking for me?”
Jordan immediately uttered, “Cooper and Anna have disappeared together! I want to know where he
is!”
Tiffany was shocked. “What? Cooper and Anna have disappeared? What were you doing when you
were supposed to keep an eye on your wife?”
Bailey, who was resting his eyes next to Tiffany, abruptly opened his eyes, feigning disinterest, but in
fact was eavesdropping on their conversation.
“Okay, okay. I’ll notify you when I get an update.”
After exchanging some words, she hung up on the call while feeling edgy. “Damn it, where the hell did
Cooper go?”
An anxious Tiffany repeatedly gave Cooper a ring, but he had switched his phone off after that incident.
They did not return to the Imperial or the Edwards Residence at Riverdale, so she had no idea where
he went.
Bailey, who was beside her, suddenly said, “Michael opened a private hospital with a good surgical
department. You can try to ask there.”
Before he dealt with anyone, he would always investigate the person’s background in advance. In
addition to retail, Michael had a few private hospitals under hispany, Asco International, and the
nearest one was just around the corner.
Tiffany immediately went to the hospital. Sure enough, she saw Michel and Mitchell’s family’s vehicles
coming in and out of the building.

She intended to head in to look for Cooper, but when she thought of him being together with Anna, she
felt really upset. Also, he would not allow her to enter as well.
After some contemtion, she dialed Jordan’s number.
Soon, his car arrived at the hospital and he actually brought along with him a number of people.
Tiffany parked her car at a hidden spot opposite the hospital, secretly watching everything that
happened in front of the hospital.
Jordan came in an aggressive aura—he could not bear to see Anna and Cooper together!
Upon seeing the people from the Edwards Family appearing with ferocity, many bodyguards, from both
the Mitchell and Michel’s Families, soon exited the hospital.
Without saying a word, he immediately ordered his men to barge in.
“Mr. Edwards, what are you doing?”
Linus and Sophia suddenly appeared at the lobby behind all of the bodyguards and Michael stood next
to her.
Jordan wore a cold expression. “I’m here to pick up my fiancée.”
Sophia pretended to be confused. “Fiancée? Mr. Edwards, shouldn’t you be watching after your own
fiancée? Why would she be here?”
He refused to beat around the bush. “Move to the side. I know that Anna is here.”
Upon hearing that, her expression turned cold. “That’s too bad; my father is injured and he has taken
his rest. Please don’t behave presumptuously here. We haven’t seen your fiancée either.” She took a
step back into the realm of the bodyguards’ protection.
The people from the Michel and Mitchell’s Families formed a human wall, blocking Jordan’s people
from entering. As they were at the hospital, the ce was equipped with all necessary facilities—
except guns—to prevent people from causing trouble.
The human wall was imprable, preventing Jordan from entering. This situation further affirms that
Anna is here!
