Chapter 60: Calm down

  "Young Miss?" Butler George knitted his brows in surprise when he saw Cosette in the mansion's lobby. "Where are you going?" 

"I will go to Papa's study. Is he there?"

The butler sighed before he relayed the news to her. "There was an emergency and Master's schedule was moved up. So, he told me to tell you he will make it up to you once he comes home."

"What?" Cosette knitted her brows as she registered what the butler had just said. "You mean… Papa already flew out to Sharie?"

Butler George nodded, only to see her complexion turn pale. "Young Miss, are you alright?" he inquired in worry while Cosette looked back at him in disbelief.

"No…" she whispered and without explaining herself, Cosette rushed to Conrad's study. When she saw his home office empty, Cosette jogged her way to Conrad's bedroom.

Nothing. 

"No…" She held her head, staggering back. "… this can't be happening."
