Chapter 121 - I want to go now (2/2)
”What is it?” Jianjun asked.
”I think something is wrong with Mr Li” As usual, she was already pacing back and forth the sitting room.
”What do you mean? Did she tell you that?”
”No. But she is in the hospital.” She didn't even bother to stop her front and back pace even as her hands shook in worry.
”How come I didn't hear from Mr Li all these while if he was really okay?”
”But you said he's on a business trip. And it's been just two days” Jianjun answered.
”Dad, the last time he was sick, they told Heya the exact same thing.” She paused. ”Oh my God. What if something bad happened to him? They're certainly in the hospital, I am sure of it. She was speaking with her father. He owns the hospital. I heard voices. ” Oh God. Oh God. Oh God.”
”Sis. Please be still. What if you're just imagining things?” Joreen chipped in.
She ran inside the room, took her coat and was heading straight for the door before Jianjun held her back. ”What do you think you are doing right now?” He asked in a tone she could not really interpret.
”I have to go check.” She said in shaky voice.
Jianjun could see her hands shaking also. ”You can't go out now. You have to be careful.” He warned.
”Dad. Mr Li might be sick somewhere. I... I just want to check. Okay? Please.” She didn't wait any longer and suddenly opened the door in a hurry.
What welcomed her immediately she opened the door was a swam of reporters eagerly flashing their cameras and throwing questions at her. Her brain was still trying to process what was going on but, Jianjun was fast and quickly pulled her in before shutting the door tight.
She still stood there frozen and watched her father give her a look that said ”See?”
”Are you okay? He asked in worry when he saw she was still reeling from the shock and staring blankly into space.
”What... what just happened?” She asked in what sounded like shock.
”Sara.” He shook her shoulders ”Come to your senses.”
”What if he is really not fine?” She asked.
”Big Sis. I'm sure he is okay. You can't go out now” Joreen finally said after recovering from the horror she just witnessed.
Sara looked at Joreen. No one could read her expression. And in the gentlest tone ever, she said. ”But I want to go now”
