Chapter 338
After Kyrie made the phone call to report the news, there were no longer any updates from him.
Liam couldn't sleep and he kept calling Kyrie and Sophia on his phone.
Six long hours later, Kyrie finally picked up the call at 4 in the morning.
Kyrie said that he was taken to the police station for a routine inquiry and he was just released.
If he was taken to the police station, then Sophia should also be there.
Liam and Isabella were lost in thoughts for another half an hour before Kyrie rushed to the hospital and told them about what had happened in the Halcyon Hotel. Liam had already read the news and he knew that the Declan was in danger.
He was now concerned about Paige. What was her current situation?
He called her multiple times, but he could not get through.
Kyrie was not surprised when he heard that Paige was not picking up, but it was surprising to hear that Sophia wasn't either, "Didn't Miss Martin leave quite a while ago? Why can't you get through?" Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Liam and Isabella looked at each other and asked, "Really?"
"Yes! Miss Martin suddenly broke out in rashes so she left the room early. I thought she had already come back. This is weird, why isn't she back yet?"
Isabella became anxious after hearing his story, "Could something have happened to her?'
"What are you talking about? How could anything happen to her?" Liam glared at her unpleasantly.
"But if she's okay, why is she not picking up the phone? Everything that had happened tonight is so weird. Declan is supposedly a ghost, yet he was also caught. Something's not right," Isabella said as she called Sophia again.
The call could not get through, and Isabella became more and more anxious, "No, I have a hunch that something must be wrong. Call the police!"
As she was about to call the police, the door of the ward was pushed open, and Sophia came in with a swollen face.
Seeing her come in, Isabella let out a sigh of relief and rushed over to hug her, "Where were you? Why didn't you answer the phone? Did you know that your father and I were worried sick about you?"
Isabella was truly worried for her. Sophia held her and said, "Mom, I got into a small accident."
"What happened? Who slapped you? Did you get robbed?" Isabella asked continuously.
"Mom, can't you see that I'm very tired and uncomfortable right now? Let me breathe first."
After Sophia snapped at her out of annoyance, Isabella let go of her and turned to pour a glass of water for her. "I'll call a doctor for you."
"You don't have to. Just let me rest for a while…" Sophia chugged the water, and Isabella poured her another glass.
Before this, her mind was too clouded with worry that she overlooked Sophia's outer appearance. Now, she clearly saw that her clothes were messy, her face was bruised, and her neck had red marks all over. Her heart dropped.
It was obvious that Sophia had slept with someone before this. Isabella looked at Kyrie and said, "Kyrie, you should go and get breakfast. Everyone is hungry after what happened last night."
Kyrie realized that Isabella wanted to send him away, so he immediately agreed and left.
When he closed the door and left, Isabella asked Sophia, "What happened?"
"Someone set me up..." Sophia did not hide the fact that she had been set up to sleep with Charles.
Liam and Isabella couldn't believe what she said, "How is this possible? Who set you up? Why would they do that?"
"At first, I thought it was Paige, but she had no chance to do so. She was in Declan's trap the whole time. How could she scheme against me?" Sophia didn't know that Declan was in deep waters as well.
Isabella and Liam looked at each other. Isabella spoke first, "Did Paige really set Sophia up? If she is the one who planned all this, then she must have been fine last night."
"How could she be fine? I saw her drink the drugged juice and she couldn't even walk straight. Moreover, Declan followed her out and he did not come back ever since. How could she escape?
Declan has his bodyguards, Paige was alone," Sophia was unwilling to believe that Paige didn't fall for the trap.
"Don't you know that Declan was arrested by the police?" Liam retorted.
"He is arrested? When did this happen?" Sophia looked confused.
"It happened last night! How could you not know about such big news!" Liam sighed and he was extremely disappointed.
"The people who were part of the trap yesterday were sent to the police station, but that rebellious daughter of mine is nowhere to be found. She must have escaped."
"That's impossible," Sophia didn't believe it.
The door was pushed open and a cheerful voice echoed throughout the room. "What's impossible?"
Paige was beaming as she opened the door with a smile. The three people in the room were all shocked. For a while, no one spoke, and they just looked at her. The ward fell into a dead silence.
Paige was holding a bunch of flowers in her arms. She walked in with a smile and she put the flowers on the bedside table in front of their shocked gazes.
"What's wrong? Why aren't you guys talking anymore?" She turned around and glanced at their faces.
She acted surprised when she saw the state Sophia was in, "My God! What happened to you? How did you become like this? Have you been raped?"
Sophia's face was extremely pale.
Looking at Paige's glorious appearance, even a fool would know that their plan had failed.
Not only did Paige not fall for the plan, but she also managed to turn around and scheme against Sophia instead. The mess that happened between her and Charles was definitely because of Paige.
When did this little b*tch became so smart?
Sophia was furious as she glared at Paige.
She was about to speak, but Paige interrupted her and spoke first. "On my way here just now, I heard that the prostitute Charles slept with last night was also taken to the police station. I also heard that Ethan beat up that prostitute for his aunt's sake. Don't tell me that prostitute was you?"
Sophia was trembling with anger when Paige pointed at her and openly called her a prostitute. Furthermore, Paige didn't know when to stop.
"Oh my god, am I right? Sophia, just how thirsty are you? Even if Charles has a good status, he's still quite old. Besides, he's Ethan's uncle-in-law. You aborted a baby with Ethan, yet now you're sleeping with Charles? Isn't that a little disgusting? You're just the same as your mother, aren't you?" Paige really did not hold back.
Sophia was so angry that she fiercely rushed towards her, "You foul mouth b*tch, I'm gonna kill you!"
