Chapter 495 Rushed to Find Him at the First Opportunity
All the contacts in his phone had no notes, but there were messages from Geraldine.
After reading a few useless ones, I didn’t bother to continue.
Sebastian was still outside making a call. The only phone number I remembered was Walter’s. I had no idea what his situation was, so I could only send him a temporary message with no particular content, and then I put the phone back into Ezra’s pocket.
Sebastian came in quickly, seeing me next to Ezra, he looked at me. somewhat guardedly and said, “Ms. Conner, what is this…”
I pointed at the water cup in my hand, said irritably, “I’m planning to drown him with water.”
He paused, revealing a somewhat helpless expression, and chuckled, “Thank you for taking care of him.”
I ignored him, stood up, and looked at him, “Sebastian, when do you plan to return to the border?”
His face faltered, but his expression became serious again, with a hint of caution, he asked, “What’s wrong?”
Seeing him like this, I didn’t continue to ask. I just said, “Don’t you plan to help him upstairs to rest? Don’t expect me to get him upstairs by myself.”
He nodded, helping Ezra up to the second floor. I followed behind them, watching as he a*sisted Ezra into the bedroom. After they were inside, I abruptly pulled the bedroom door shut and quickly descended

the stairs.
When Sebastian came out, I was already at the gate. He looked at me, frowning, “Ms. Conner, aren’t you afraid that Daniel will be angry if you leave?”
I laughed, switching the keys in my hand, “What does it matter to me whether he gets angry or not? You guys just stay here tonight, I hope you have a good time.”
Afterwards, I locked the door from the outside.
These past few days, I had been observing. The villa Ezra had was indeed exquisite. Presumably, it was to guard against me, so he deliberately installed many locks. Without a key, it was very difficult for me to get in and out.
So when I was going through his pockets just now, I also took the key.
I didn’t know how this person could be so rich yet so unsophisticated. They still used a key for their door instead of a fingerprint scanner. They probably stayed at the border for too long and it messed with their head.
I drove Ezra’s car in the yard and went straight to where Alexander lived.
The night had grown quite dark by the time I arrived at Alexander’s building. I had to ring the doorbell for quite a while before someone responded. Likely woken up in the middle of the night, a somewhat irritated voice came through the intercom, “Who is it?” It was Alexander.
“Alexander, it’s me, Tabatha,” I spoke, barely uttering any unnecessary words.
There was a pause on the other end, as if taken by surprise, then

suddenly blurted out, “Tabatha, you…
“Would you at least let me in first? It’s freezing out here in the middle of the night,” I interrupted him, speaking out. It was indeed cold. Even though it was already May in River City, the night temperature was still not very high. I had rushed out without a jacket and was feeling a bit cold.
In a moment, Alexander had opened the door, and then he came out to greet me. Instinctively, I wanted to go in, but he handed me a coat, seemingly unintentionally blocking my way in, “Um, you should put on a coat first.”
“I’m not stupid, I realized in an instant, there’s someone at his place. I put on my coat, looked at him, and asked, ‘Who’s at your place? Making friends?””
He shook his head, his face flushed with embarra*sment, “No, you put on your coat first, by the way, why are you now…”
He didn’t want to talk about his personal affairs, and I wasn’t in the mood to ask more. Coincidentally, I didn’t plan to go in either. I looked at him and asked, “Do you know which hospital Walter is in? How is he now? Oh, and do you have a spare phone? Give me one.”
I rattled off a bunch of words in one breath, he nodded, saying, “Mr. Hinton seems to be at Tranquil Care Medical Center, where have you been these past few days? What happened?”
Saying this, he found a mobile phone at the entrance and handed it to me, saying, “I just replaced this a couple of days ago. It doesn’t have a SIM card, you’ll have to get one yourself to use it.”
I nodded, took the phone and said, “Thanks.”
He then hurriedly left. Behind him, he sighed, probably because he felt that I hadn’t answered his question yet.

When I arrived at the hospital where Walter was, it was already the early hours of the morning. I had originally thought that I would hav to search room by room, but unexpectedly, I ran into Stanley in the hospital.
He seemed to have rushed to the hospital as well, meeting me under the hospital building. Seeing me, he paused for a few seconds, then exclaimed in surprise, “Tabatha, you…”
