Chapter 2785

Gwen‘s eyes widened in shock. “Riley has gone missing? How could that be?” Luna
sighed and dragged Gwen out the door, then explained to her in a whisper, “Because of what
happened with Riley previously, Thomas had specially conducted strict background checks and
interviews on the doctors looking after her, but…

“None of us knew the full extent of the Miller family‘s influence in the medical community. Even after
such strict conditions, the Miller family still managed to slip past Thomas‘ eye. The chief surgeon
looking after Riley…turned out to be a member of the Miller family‘s inner circle.

Luna sighed and continued, “Last night, the doctor brought Riley out of the hospital and disappeared
into thin air. Joshua is stressed out by this, but he has no idea where either of them is, so he decided to
send someone close to him to figure this out…but there‘s no guarantee whether he‘ll find Riley or not.”

Gwen furrowed her brow as all the delight she had felt when she received Denise‘s email dissipated.
She bit her lip and shot Luna a worried glance. “Who…is the person Joshua sent to investigate Riley‘s
whereabouts?”

Luna shook her head. “I‘m not sure either. Joshua didn‘t tell me, and I forgot to ask, but I think it must
be someone we can trust.” This was the best they could hope for.

She, like Joshua, was overwhelmed by all this and did not know what to do at this point.

“Alright.” Gwen could tell just how flustered Luna was, so she did not say anything further. Instead, she
grasped Luna‘s hand and led her downstairs while comforting her. The car Lucas had sent to pick them
up was already waiting at the hotel entrance. The driver got out of the car and nodded respectfully at
Luna. “Ma‘am.” Luna did not even acknowledge this and instead flung the door open then quickly got
in.” Let‘s go, quick.”

The driver got back into the car and started the engine.



Perhaps it was because he could sense Luna and Gwen‘s urgency, but the driver sped through the
traffic so fast that he reached Yannie‘s house, which was 45 minutes away, in less than half an hour.

As soon as they arrived, Luna threw the door open and sprinted towards Yannie‘s house.

Gwen could not help sighing when she saw this.

It seemed that Yannie mattered to Luna like a sister. In the past, Gwen had only ever seen Luna so
worried for her and Bonnie. She quickly followed Luna into the house, where Yannie was slumped in
Mrs. Flores‘ arms, sobbing her heart out. “Mom, do you think…do you think I curse everyone I meet?”
Yannie muttered. “Thomas had

never encountered anything like this before meeting me, and it‘s all my fault he got arrested today… “If
I hadn‘t held my ego so high, Thomas wouldn‘t have been forced to eat the poisoned food with me
yesterday. If he didn‘t eat the food, Tina and Denise‘s plan wouldn‘t have succeeded… “He wouldn‘t
have been tricked, and his father wouldn‘t have died, nor would he have been accused of murder!

“And Riley…” Tears continued to slide down Yannie‘s cheeks. “There hasn‘t been a peaceful day in
Riley‘s life from the moment I took her in. She‘s been plagued by her sickness, and now she‘s been
kidnapped… Mom, do you think…I cursed them?”

Mrs. Flores opened her mouth to say something, but no words came out. “You didn‘t curse anyone,”
Luna‘s clear voice rang out.
