"Sis, don’t ask anymore." Lily Sinclair shook her head, not intending to tell her cousin what she was about to do.
But before leaving, she stepped forward and hugged Raine Sinclair.
Feeling that warm embrace, Lily Sinclair smiled, "Sis, after all these years, having you as my sister has been wonderful."
These words left Raine Sinclair even more bewildered.
"Why so sentintal all of a sudden?" Raine Sinclair raised an eyebrow and gently stroked her smooth long hair again.
What exactly was going on with this younger sister?
Lily Sinclair seed to draw strength from that hug.
Her eyes suddenly beca resolute.
"It’s nothing, I just feel proud to have such a great sister!" A deeper smile appeared on Lily Sinclair’s lips.
She had dispelled the fear from her heart and found what she truly needed to do; she feared nothing anymore...
Now it was ti for her to be brave for her sister!
After speaking, Lily Sinclair turned and ran towards the outer room!
Raine Sinclair frowned as she watched her swiftly departing figure, her eyes narrowing slightly.
Mama Chambers also felt curious, "What’s the matter with Miss Lily? She seems like she’s going off to do sothing big?"
"Sothing big..." Raine Sinclair mumbled, her eyes growing cold.
Suddenly thinking of sothing, she dialed Finn Wyatt’s number.
Finn Wyatt had also just woken up not long ago and was having breakfast.
But as soon as the bread reached his throat, he was choked by Raine Sinclair’s questioning voice.
"Finn Wyatt, did you find my sister on the night of the masquerade ball?!"
The tone was as fierce as it could be!
"Cough, cough!" Finn Wyatt quickly caught his breath, had a sip of milk to ease his chest, and said, "It’s been so long, and you still rember?"
"You better be honest with !" Raine Sinclair was really furious with him!
"That night..." Finn Wyatt felt guilty, hesitating whether to disclose the truth or not.
After all, it wasn’t exactly sothing honorable.
Hearing his hesitant tone, Raine Sinclair knew sothing was wrong.
"Hurry up and speak!" In her hurry, she couldn’t bother with much else!
Finn Wyatt was startled by the sudden increase in volu, almost dropping his phone!
It took a few bounces in his hand before he managed to catch it!
"You... don’t be in such a rush!" Finn Wyatt continued coughing.
The servants passing by nearby were almost stunned...
No way?
Soone as vile as the gentleman, uh... no, more like ruthless?
Well, anyway, a devil like the gentleman has always been the one bullying others. When did it beco soone else’s turn to bully him?
And looking at the gentleman like this, he seems to be afraid of that person?
This... truly a rare sight!
At this mont, Finn Wyatt didn’t have the mind to pay attention to whether anyone was passing by. His head was full of thoughts on how to handle the troubleso Raine Sinclair!
"That night, I had the hotel manager open all the doors on that floor, and indeed, I didn’t find your sister. However..."
"However what?" Raine Sinclair anxiously pressed on.
Finn Wyatt pinched his brow and then recounted in detail what happened that night, including the woman’s scream and the man’s muffled groan from the room.
After speaking, the other end of the line went silent for a long ti.
So long that Finn Wyatt thought the line had disconnected when he called, "Hello?"
Raine Sinclair finally ca to her senses, "Are you saying that Lily might be with soone..."
"I’m just speculating. At the ti, I didn’t open the door, so no one knows what was really going on behind it." Finn Wyatt wouldn’t make definitive statents.
Raine Sinclair fell silent once again.
If that person was indeed Lily, then what did she go through that night?
Associating it with Lily’s recent unusual behavior, Raine Sinclair increasingly suspected that the person from that night was Lily!
Gritting her teeth slightly, after pondering for a while, Raine Sinclair said, "Does the hotel have surveillance? Help check what happened that night!"
"I checked later, and it was all deleted," Finn Wyatt answered.
With just one word, the hotel had to obediently offer up the surveillance footage.
But under his pressure, the hotel couldn’t produce the video, suggesting it was truly deleted by soone with intentions.
Hearing this, Raine Sinclair’s suspicious heart sank entirely.
If it was a coincidence, no one would think of deleting the video!
Sothing must have happened.
"Finn Wyatt, do a favor," Raine Sinclair said with a slightly serious tone.
Finn Wyatt, however, lazily played coy, almost putting his feet on the table, "What favor do you need this ti? Raine Sinclair, let tell you, with the attitude you just had..."
Before he could finish, Raine Sinclair sternly interrupted, "Stop with this nonsense, there’s no ti! Quickly find soone skilled to follow Lily Sinclair; I’m afraid she’s going to do sothing foolish!"
"Is it that serious?" Finn Wyatt also dropped his casual deanor and quickly lowered his legs, "Where is she?"
"She just left my house, hurry up!" Raine Sinclair urged him twice, afraid he wouldn’t comply, and added, "Protect Lily, and I’ll agree to whatever you want!"
"Oh? Are you serious about that?" Finn Wyatt raised an eyebrow; that was quite a promise!
Raine Sinclair really didn’t have ti to bicker with him, quickly agreeing, "Serious!"
The next second, the call was hung up.
Finn Wyatt imdiately called his trusted aide, Ian Jacobs.
"Follow Lily Sinclair, be discreet, don’t get discovered. If she tries to do sothing stupid, stop her imdiately. And, don’t get anyone killed."

After Lily Sinclair left the Sinclair family, Winston Clayton relayed the information to Candace Ford.
"You’re saying Lily Sinclair spent the night at the Sinclair house? Was the drug administered?" Candace Ford asked impatiently.
"Unclear. Lily Sinclair just left and seems to be hastily making a call," Winston Clayton said, glancing again at the Sinclair residence, "The Sinclairs don’t seem to have reacted. Should I follow Lily Sinclair or stay to monitor the Sinclair’s situation?"
"Stay at the Sinclair’s for now and watch them, leave Lily Sinclair alone. If she dares to act out, I’ll release her video and see how she’ll face the world after that!"
With such leverage over Lily Sinclair, Candace Ford wasn’t at all afraid that this little girl would disobey her!
The important thing now was Raine Sinclair’s reaction.
If she really had a miscarriage, surely there’d be so commotion, right?
Winston Clayton stayed outside the Sinclair mansion, keeping watch.
About ten minutes later, an ambulance quickly arrived from the street corner and stopped in front of the Sinclair’s gate!
Winston Clayton was startled, dropping the arms he had crossed over his chest as he took two steps forward in surprise.
Then he saw paradics rushing into the Sinclair mansion with a stretcher!
Almost instinctively, he called Candace Ford to report, "An ambulance is parked in front of the Sinclair’s house."
"Really?!" Candace Ford asked excitedly!
