Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 2085

Stanson looked at Abigail with a helpless expression, muttering, "I lost my phone…"

"Just great. Exactly what I needed," Abigail grumbled, tossing him her phone.

The call connected quickly, and Abigail motioned for Stanson to put it on speaker.

"It's me," Stanson said, identifying himself before reluctantly giving the order. "Get some men to bring Kaylee to the hospital."

"Didn't Kaylee escape? Are you okay, Mr. Holland?" the person on the other end sounded confused, clearly unaware of the situation.

Stanson glanced at Abigail, silently asking if he could hang up.

"No, keep talking."

Suspicious of any deception, Abigail made a throat-slashing gesture, signaling him to continue the conversation.

Stanson's face was filled with a mix of fear and frustration, his emotions nearly overwhelming him.

Despite this, he gritted his teeth and snapped, "If she escaped, why didn't you go after her? If you don't find her and bring her back in the next hour, I swear I'll kill you myself!"

The line went eerily silent.

Abigail and Stanson exchanged a glance, both equally puzzled by what was happening.

After a brief silence, the person on the other end replied, "Sorry, Mr. Holland, I respect you, but I've got a family to feed. If you keep pushing me like this, I'll have no choice but to walk away. Goodbye!"

"What the hell do you mean you're—"

As soon as Abigail returned, Aiden was nowhere to be found. Hugo was clutching his wound, blood pooling around him.

"You!" she barked, pointing at Stanson, who had just scrambled to his feet. "Get him downstairs, now!"

Stanson remained still, his hands gripping his pants, a look of irritation on his face. When Abigail cast him a menacing glare, he begrudgingly lifted Hugo and began making his way downstairs.

His belt, buckle, and zipper were all broken, causing his pants to sag and drag along the floor. His flesh-colored underwear was plainly visible, earning him mocking glances.

Once Hugo was safely settled in the emergency room, Abigail waved Stanson away. "You're done here. Get lost."

Without hesitation, Stanson hitched up his pants and fled as quickly as he could.

Despite the severity of Hugo's wound, it hadn't pierced any vital organs. After receiving stitches, he was transferred to a standard ward for recovery.
