Daddy, don't flirt

Chapter 13 There’s someone jump off the building

There was only one day left for the three-day deadline that Dan offers to Jamie.

Jamie is going to ask that person to borrow some money, and leaves with mother together. Then Dan can’t find her anymore.

However, she can’t reach out that person on phone. Just when she worries about what to do next, she gets call from the hospital

“Young master, have you come to the hospital today? Is your mother left the hospital with you?” The nurse asks.

“What happens? I thought my mother should be in the hospital.” Jamie answers. She goes to school for all day, no time for hospital yet.

“The nurse was having a ward round this morning, and you mother wasn’t at the room. We noticed that she hasn’t come back for the rest of the day. We have searched through the whole hospital, but still can’t find her. So we want to ask whether...”

“What are you saying? My mother is missing?” Jamie interrupts the nurse.

She drops down the phone, can’t hear what the nurse is saying. Running out of the classroom, and grabs a taxi to the hospital.

Jamie is so worried all the way to the hospital.

How can mother go missing? Where can she be if she is not at the hospital?

Jamie doesn’t understand how can a patient with serious kidney failure go missing out of blue.

Because cars can’t be parked in front of the hospital, so the driver stops at the road across the hospital.

Jamie pays in hurry, then she goes across the road without thinking.

Though it’s red light for cars, a truck keeps running, and rushing toward Jamie.

With a sharp noise, the truck goes by Jamie so close in an inch. Jamie falls in the side road, and on her waist, a pair of warm arms keeps her protected.

Jamie is still in shock, she dully turns around to see who’s behind her.

All Jamie can see is that Dan uses himself as a cushion to protect her, and it looks like that Dan is a bit angry with what was happening.

“Did you lose your mind? You didn’t avoid car when it came straight toward you.” Dan says.

Jamie looks at Dan dully, then she realizes that it was Dan who saves her life.

“Thank you for helping me out.” Jamie stands up in hurry, and her legs are injured by truck, bleeding. Her blue school uniform is in red by the blood.

Jamie doesn’t care for the pain, she just wants to get to the hospital

Dan finds that spot of red so uncomfortable, he goes up and grasps Jamie’s arm, says,” Don’t you know that you’re bleeding?”

“It doesn’t matter, just a bit of blood. Jamie answers with a pale face, taking her arm out of Dan’s hand.

Jamie doesn’t have time for Dan, when her mother is missing.

“Sorry, Mr. William. I have emergency that have to go. I will thank you properly next time.” Jamie says, and keeps going forward to the hospital

Dan watches Jamie’s slender figure, so slender that as if Jamie will fall down in any minute.

Dan frowns; his hand still has the feeling and texture of Jamie’s arm.

This man is much more slender than Dan thought.

Jamie doesn’t like a man at all. Dan thinks.

Jamie limps to the inpatient department. The nurse who looks after her mother just comes downstairs. Seeing how bad Jamie looks like, the nurse asks surprisingly, “What happened to you, young master?”

Jamie doesn’t answers but asks, “Any news of my mother?”

“Not yet, we have already searched the whole hospital...” A scream stops the nurse.

“Look! Someone is trying to jump off the building!” the one who was screaming says. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Jamie is shocked, and looks up to the top of the building.

Under the hot sun, a woman in hospital uniform is standing on the rooftop of the 20-floors high building, with a foot stepping outside the banister.

Just one look at this, making Jamie felt like her heart is going to stop. The woman who is standing on the rooftop is her mother.

Jamie eyes turn reddish, she shouts, “Mom!”
