Chapter 1718 The Questioning


    "Phoebe, I have to go. Can you put these away?"


    "Okay, don''t worry. I''ll take care of it." Phoebe knew Sheryl was very concerned about rk and


    Shirley, so she asked her to go quickly.


    Sheryl said no more and left.


    Soon, she arrived at the kindergarten. Most children had already gone home. Catching her breath,


    Sheryl walked towards the teacher and said, "Sorry, I''mte."


    "Mrs. Lu, haven''t you taken your children yet?" The teacher had initially been talking with someone.


    She was shocked when Sheryl approached her.


    "I, I just arrived." Looking at the teacher, Sheryl noticed sweat appearing on her forehead. Suddenly,


    she realized what the teacher meant. Sheryl felt cold as fear crept over her.


    "Mom!" rk called to Sheryl as he appeared at the gate, looking pale and frightened.


    Sheryl ran towards him at once. She squinted at him, making sure he was okay. Feeling relieved, she


    asked, "rk, where did you go just now? You scared me! Where is your sister?"


    Sheryl looked around, but didn''t find Shirley. She began to feel anxious.


    Hearing his mother ask about Shirley, Charles burst into tears.


    "Shirley, Shirley disappeared. I can''t find her anywhere," rk exined while crying.


    Shocked, Sheryl stood frozen in ce.


    She stared at rk nkly, hearing his cries. She couldn''t believe it.


    ''Did Shirley disappear? That''s impossible.


    How can she disappear?


    No, no. It isn''t true. Shirley won''t just disappear, '' Sheryl thought.


    "Mom, what''s wrong? You''re scaring me." Seeing Sheryl''s face turn pale, rk was instantly more


    concerned about her. He was worried that what happened would hurt his mom.


    "Tell me what exactly happened," Sheryl asked, trying her best to keep calm. She didn''t want rk to


    panic.


    "A little while ago, Shirley and I found out that you were still not here. So we agreed to go and wait for


    you outside. But I lost track of Shirley then." Frightened, rk couldn''t help trembling. Looking at


    Sheryl, his eyes were filled with tears.


    Sheryl felt a sharp pain inside her like a knife was cutting her heart into pieces. Her mind was a mess,


    and she didn''t know what to do now.


    Seeing Sheryl standing still, rk shook her arm and said, "Mom, please, go find Shirley."


    "Okay. Go back to your teacher, and I''ll ask Alex to pick you up. I will go find Shirley now." Sheryl


    wanted to make sure that rk was okay, too, so she had to take care of him first.


    "Okay," rk nodded obediently.


    Sheryl exined everything to his teacher before she left.


    After rk saw Sheryl was out of sight, he wiped his tears away.


    Actually, the two children were ying tricks but were afraid that Sheryl would worry about them. So


    rk decided to go back to the school while Shirley went back home and hide.


    Sheryl began to walk around the kindergarten, hoping to find Shirley.


    This was the second time that Shirley had disappeared. Sheryl didn''t know how to react. The first time,


    Shirley had been kidnapped by Le, and Sheryl had felt like dying. Luckily, Shirley had been returned


    safely. Sheryl had promised herself that she would never lose them again. But now, she had lost


    Shirley again.


    "Shirley!" Sheryl called out Shirley''s name with all her might.


    After an hour, Sheryl had already checked every corner of the school premises but still couldn''t find her.


    Exhausted, she slumped down and burst into tears as she sat on the ground.


    With her head in aplete mess, Sheryl finally decided to call I.


    At that time, I was having dinner with Aron. Surprised to be getting a call at this time, they looked at


    each other in confusion.


    "Who is it?" Aron asked. Seeing I was so anxious, he immediately thought that something was

    wrong.


    "It''s Sher. Let me answer it first."


    I thought it was strange for Sheryl to call her now. ''What could have happened?'' she worried.


    "Hello, Sher! What''s up?" I greeted.


    "I, Shirley''s disappeared!" Sheryl interrupted before I could finish.


    "What? Where are you? I''lle there now!" I was shocked to hear the news.


    "I am still trying to find her around the kindergarten. Please,e here quickly." Then Sheryl hung up.


    "What happened?" Aron asked as soon as I hung up, seeing that her expression had hardened. He


    thought that something might have happened.


    "Shirley has disappeared. Let''s go help Sheryl to find her." After Sheryl hung up, I had already lost


    her appetite, so she asked Aron toe with her to the kindergarten and assist with the search.


    Meanwhile, Sheryl wiped away her tears. She wanted to call the police, but she was worried that the


    police wouldn''t investigate it since it had not been twenty-four hours yet. Not knowing what to do, she


    called I for help.


    Suddenly, a name shed through her mind.


    ''Le? Last time, Le had kidnapped Shirley. Is it possible that she did it again?'' Sheryl thought.


    Feeling anxious and with her mind in aplete mess, Sheryl wanted to find Shirley so badly that she


    wouldn''t let any possibilities be discounted. Out of instinct, she believed that Le might be involved in


    it.


    Sheryl thought that she didn''t have a conflict with anyone, except for Le. With that thought in mind,


    Sheryl didn''t hesitate to go to the Dream Garden at once.


    Soon, Sheryl arrived at the Dream Garden. Standing at the gate, nothing seemed to have changed


    since she had left. But she did note here to enjoy the scenery, so she knocked at the gate


    immediately.


    "Coming!"


    Nancy came to open the gate. Seeing Sheryl standing outside, she couldn''t help but tremble. Blinking


    rapidly, Nancy asked, "Sher, why are you here?"


    "Nancy, is Le here?" Despite being anxious, Sheryl held herself together and decided not to go in


    directly to confront Le.


    "Yes," Nancy answered in confusion.


    "Nancy, who is it?" Melissa asked Nancy impatiently, also having heard the knocking sounds earlier.


    "It''s Sher."


    Before Nancy could finish her words, Sheryl rushed in. She caught a glimpse of Melissa but ignored


    herpletely. Pointing her finger at Le, she demanded, "Where is Shirley now?"


    "What are you talking about?" Confused, Le just stared back at her.


    In fact, Le was really confused. She only knew that Sheryl had barged in and now started


    questioning her about Shirley. But how would she know where Sheryl''s daughter was now?


    Le sneered. "Sheryl, how am I supposed to know where your daughter is?"


    "Don''t y innocent, Le. I''m warning you. If you don''t return my daughter to me now, I won''t let you


    go." Sheryl was pale, but her words were powerful.
