Chapter 646


    “Well…”


    Johanna and Beal exchanged nces. Finally, Johanna spoke up, albeit hesitantly. “You see, Brandon


    fainted during the search and rescue, and now he is in the hospital.”


    J’s eyes widened and she clutched Johanna’s hand worriedly. “How is he now?


    Brandon’s always been healthy. How could he suddenly pass out?”


    The more she thought about it, the more anxious J became. She lifted the nket and was about


    to get out of bed. “We have to go back to Seacisco now.”


    Beal hurried up to stop his daughter. He shook his head firmly and said, “You’d better stay in the


    hospital for a few more days just to be safe. Anyway, I had already asked my assistant to check on


    Brandon. He’s fine.”


    But J couldn’t calm down. “Dad, why didn’t you visit him yourself? Is he seriously ill?”


    “Calm down, J. We were so busy looking for you that we didn’t spare time to visit him in the


    hospital. But I heard that Brandon is fine now.” Johannaforted J in a gentle voice.


    J lowered her head, feeling guilty.


    This was all happening because of her.


    “Before I called you, I tried calling him first. But I couldn’t get through to his number. What do you think


    is going on?” At first, J didn’t think too much of it. But now, the sense of uneasiness in her heart


    was getting stronger and stronger.


    Johanna scratched her head and averted her gaze, feeling a little embarrassed. “The assistant said he


    was fine. So that means he should’ve woken up by now.”


    Truth be told, she didn’t know what was going on with Brandon either.


    When she heard what J said, she also instinctively felt that something was wrong with Brandon.


    Ever since Brandon was hospitalized, he seemed to stop caring about J’s disappearance. He even


    withdrew his search and rescue ships, which had pissed Johanna off to no end.


    Beal knew what was on his wife’s mind, but J’s well-being was their top priority now, so he also


    tried tofort their daughter. “Your mother’s right. Maybe Brandon just missed the call. He’ll call you


    back as soon as he sees it.”


    But J couldn’t rest easy. “I have to go see Brandon. If he’s fine, I’lle back and stay in the


    hospital.”


    Johanna held her hand tightly. “You’re still so weak. Stay in the hospital and recuperate! I’ll ask


    Brandon toe here instead.”


    Seeing that Johanna sounded a little angry, J hesitated and then reluctantlyy back down on the


    bed.


    “Mom, wake me up if Brandones, okay?”


    Seeing the anxious look in her daughter’s eyes, Johanna sighed. “Of course, honey. Get some sleep


    first.”


    Then Johanna pulled Beal out of the ward.N?vel(D)rama.Org''s content.


    “Honey, you have to find a way to get in touch with Brandon. I think something’s wrong.” Johanna


    looked gloomy. She felt that something was off, but she couldn’t tell exactly what that was.


    “Alright. Don’t worry too much. Brandon’s fine. I’ll call someone to find out how to get in touch with him.”


    Beal rubbed Johanna’s backfortingly and then went out to make some calls.


    After a while, he got his hands on the phone number that Brandon was using now.


    Without hesitation, Johanna called Brandon.


    “Hello, who’s this?” The man’s voice sounded a little cold.


    “Brandon, this is Mrs. White. We’ve found J. Would you like toe and see her?” Johanna went


    straight to the point and asked Brandon toe over.


    She thought that Brandon would be as ecstatic as they were to find out that J was alive and well.


    Unexpectedly, Brandon’s tone was indifferent. “It’s good that you’ve found her. There’s something I


    have to deal with in thepany. I’m not avable to see her for the time being.”
