Get you in my arms

Chapter 73 The Plot Was Missed

"I have a stomachache, and I haven't eaten anything yet. I have some medicine in my car. Ellie, can you accompany me to get it?"

"Okay, I'll go with you." Ellie held her.

As soon as she stood up from the sofa, she grabbed hold of Mary's hand and said, "Miss, can you come over to help me? I'm afraid that it will be painful later and Ellie can't hold me. You have great strength."

Mary stood up and held the other arm of her. "Let's go," she said.

When they went to the garage, Maggie took out a bottle of gastric medicine from the car, swallowed two pieces and lay in the back seat.

"Are you feeling better?" Ellie asked with concern.

"Lie down for a while. The medicine works. It should be fine." Maggie closed her eyes as she began to imagine what would happen between John and Sophia. A cold shiver ran down her spine.

"It's so stuffy here. Take care of Maggie for a while, I'm going to the bathroom," said Ellie, wiping the sweat on her forehead.

Ellie got on the elevator. At this time, in the bar, John also felt that something was wrong.

He gulped down a few mouthfuls of ice beer, trying to cool himself down. But the more he drank, the hotter he felt.

"John, what's wrong with you? Your face is red and your head is sweating," asked Sophia, noticing his unusual behavior. After she handed him a piece of tissue, John looked at her and suddenly had an impulse to pull her into her arms.

"Don't do that, John." She struggled to push him away. John shook his head violently and said, "sorry, I am a little drunk." He stood up and wanted to go to the bathroom to calm down. However, Sophia supported him and asked, "John, where are you going?"

"Bathroom." John tried her best to control his irritable mood.

"I'll take you there." Sophia accompanied him to the bathroom and waited outside.

John turned on the tap and buried his face in the basin. The cold water stimulated his brain and made him sober a lot. As soon as he came out, Sophia walked up to help a drunk girl who fell to the ground. They passed by each other.

Before he went back to his seat, he began to feel hot again. He felt it was too stuffy inside, so he should go out to breathe some fresh air. Then he walked out.

He came to the elevator and met Ellie.

"John!" Ellie glanced at him with her misty eyes and almost subconsciously pounced on him. However, this push completely lost their last sanity Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

In the bar, Sophia waited for a long time, but John didn't come out. She had to ask the waiter to come in, but she didn't expect that John wasn't there anymore.

God, where did he go?

She became extremely anxious at the thought that he might be stumbled over the steps or go to some dangerous place because of his blindness. In a hurry, she made a phone call to Mary and asked her to help her look for John.

Maggie came to the bar together with Mary. She was very angry and disappointed to see Sophia standing in front of her.

"What happened? I saw her drinking it, but she didn't get hurt. It's so strange," she thought.

"Mary, John is missing. I have looked everywhere but couldn't find him. Is there anything wrong?" She was so worried that she almost cried.

"Miss Sophia, don't worry. I'll go upstairs to the private room. You and Maggie are looking for him downstairs. It's so big. He shouldn't have left." After saying that, Mary ran upstairs.

After a while, Mary came back. She had searched every room upstairs, but no one was there.

The customers were getting more and more excited. Looking at the crowd, Sophia quickly turned to the DJ table and DJ gave the microphone to her.

"Excuse me, everyone. My friend is missing. He is wearing sunglasses, so he can't see. If anyone of you see him, please take him to the far right seat. I will cover all the expenses of your party tonight."

At first, she thought it was a good way, but unfortunately, John still didn't show up. At last, she had no choice but to call Lucas.

Lucas came over soon.

Sophia cried in his arms.

"Lucas, I lost John. But he didn't come home. What should I do?"

"Don't worry. He's an adult. Even if he couldn't see, he would be fine." Lucas tried to comfort her.

Maggie glared at them, her eyes full of jealousy. "John must have fallen into my trap. How could Sophia be so innocent?"

Just as Lucas was about to call his people to look for them, John came back with Ellie.

"John, where are you now? We are so worried about you!" At the sight of him, she let out a long sigh of relief.

"I just felt too hot. I went out to have a breath." John lowered his head and replied impatiently, with his eyes flashing.

"Ellie, why are you with John?" Maggie grabbed Ellie's hand and pulled her over. When she saw the red marks on her neck, she was startled and wondered if she had called it off.

Ellie blushed, lowered her head and played with her hair beside her ear, "I met him in the elevator."

"Your hair is in a mess. Where have you been?" Lucas gave her a reproachful look and brushed her messy purple hair.

"I'm not crazy. I behave well." Ellie stuck out her tongue at him.

Mary took a meaningful look at Ellie and John. She remembered that Ellie had drunk the same glass of wine as hers. As a bodyguard, there must be something wrong with it. While they were talking, she sneaked back to her previous position, and looked around. She found a small plastic bag under the sofa, with some powder inside. She put the plastic bag into the lotus bag secretly.

At this time, Lucas held Ellie with one hand, and helped Sophia with the other. "Well, it's almost dawn. Go back to sleep." While walking, Ellie turned around and glanced at John with a shy smile on her face.

Maggie was the last one following them. She was so disappointed. There was only hope in her life.

The next day, after work, Sophia directly went back to Bluewater Villa. John told her that he would go on a holiday and would come back a few days later.

After walking into the living room, she asked Mary to go back for a rest.

Then she took out the plastic bag from her pocket and said, "I have something to tell you."

Hence, she asked Mary to sit down and brought them two bottles of garnet juice.

"I found it in the bar last night. It should be Maggie who threw it here."
