After Divorce, I Became A Queen novel Chapter 260

Chapter 260 The Girl Who Disappeared

Stunned, Sion stood frozen in place, unprepared for this news. The report slipped from his hands and fluttered to the floor before being picked up by David who also looked shocked at what he saw.

He had thought that Morgan was just some troublemaking girl, who had shown up out of nowhere but now it seemed like she did have blood ties to him.

"Mr Carroll!" David's voice trembled with excitement as he held onto the report.

"Please leave," Sion said without looking up from where he stood behind his desk, still trying to process everything that had just happened.

David hesitated for a moment before leaving quietly with no further words exchanged between them.

Sion's whole body shook as if trying to find balance while leaning against his desk, unable to comprehend how this could be possible.

How could Morgan be his child? He hadn't slept with Aurora during their four years of marriage. Though he once ended up having sex with Nevaeh when he was drunk, Nevaeh's child had been miscarried long ago.

So where did Morgan come from?

His mind spun wildly trying to make sense of everything when suddenly an untimely phone call interrupted him.

Donna was calling about something urgent.

"Sion! Something terrible has happened... Missy is missing!" Donna cried into her phone sounding panicked beyond belief.

"What?!" Sion exclaimed incredulously upon hearing such news. He had just found out that Morgan was his biological daughter, and the sudden news made him feel like he was dreaming. His voice was cold and harsh as Donna trembled in fear.

"I didn't take her out... I went to wash some dishes and when I came back she was gone. I've looked everywhere but she's nowhere to be found." She broke down into tears towards the end of her sentence, causing Sion to realize that he had been too harsh earlier.

He calmed down and asked calmly, "How long has it been?"

"Not long..."

Sion furrowed his eyebrows and left the office quickly after gesturing at David.

An hour ago, Aurora did not attend the office today because yesterday's failed operation made her increasingly anxious. She couldn't afford to wait any longer, and she had to take Morgan away immediately. Since nothing else worked, she would have to be straightforward about it.

Judging by the time, Sion should have already gone to work. There should only be Donna at home if everything went according to plan.

Aurora got into a car with Theodore and looked at him seriously, "Are you ready?"

"I'm ready Mommy!"

His mission for today was saving his sister with Mommy!

"Good."

Aurora took a deep breath before saying, "It all depends on you whether we can save Momo or not."

She tried sounding gentle hoping it would make things better for both of them, "You can stay at home with Theo during this period until mommy arranges everything properly then we'll send you back to Halberk where Uncle Cameron is."

Things were tense right now-Sion must have sent many men after them so it wasn't wise sending them abroad yet until Sion gave up searching for Morgan first before sending them away safely.

Her tone left no room for negotiation which made Morgan feel helpless without knowing what else could be done. Theodore saw his sister feeling miserable and couldn't bear watching anymore. But he sided with his mom, thinking that Sion was a dangerous bad guy and that they couldn't leave Morgan to him anymore.

Aurora closed her eyes to avoid the little girl's pitiful stare and said, "Theo, take Momo upstairs."

Theodore then held his sister's hand and left.

Sion soon returned home after work. Donna got up from the sofa in the lounge after hearing Sion come back.

"Sion! You're back. I... I..."

"I don't blame you."

Sion walked towards Morgan's bedroom while frowning.

"Did you look for her everywhere around the house?" asked he.

He had just known that Morgan was his daughter by blood today, and she just happened to disappear. How could it be so coincident?
