Chapter 648
With these words, he took out his shattered phone, presenting it as evidence to Aziel.
Looking at the broken phone, Aziel furrowed his brows, casting a questioning glance back at Sarah.
After Sarah became more relaxed, she deliberately looked away from him.
She shyly nodded and whispered, “There’s been a mix-up, it’s just a misunderstanding.
”
As soon as Aziel heard Sarah’s confirmation, his expression softened, and he released his grip on the driver.
“I apologize.
I misinterpreted the situation earlier.
”
He took a moment to assess the damage inflicted on the driver’s phone before suggesting, “Check how much the repair cost is.
I’ll handle the payment.
”
Once they reached an agreement regarding compensation, the driver silently took one last look at them before making his exit.
Once the driver was out of sight, Sarah questioned, “What brings you here?”
Since the driver had just started the car and hadn’t driven a long distance, she was still near the hospital.
However, she did not tell Aziel that she had been in the hospital.
Aziel spun around, wearing a serious and somber expression on his face.
He gazed at her with a downcast and gloomy look, questioning, “Why didn’t you inform me right away when everything unfolded?”
Sarah felt her heart fluttering, a surge of anxiety sweeping over her.
She was clueless about what Aziel was aware of and to what extent.
Would he know that she was subjected to the filthy advances of those malevolent men and that she had nearly been…
As she pondered on the matter, her agitation grew.
She lacked the courage to meet Aziel’s gaze, avoiding direct eye contact altogether.
“I couldn’t get a hold of you or Ariana.
Can you understand how panicked and worried I was? Eventually, I managed to contact Theodore, who informed me that you were kidnapped and later admitted to the hospital.
”
Aziel’s initial concern transitioned into frustration, his tone gradually hardening.

Nonetheless, his words brought a sense of relief to Sarah.
Kidnapping… It turned out that Theodore said so to Aziel.
That would be much to her relief.
Sarah found herself feeling somewhat lucky that Theodore hadn’t exposed Mike and his gang’s wicked intentions towards her.
Fear still nestled within her.
Even though she was confident that Aziel could protect her, she didn’t want him to know what exactly happened to her.
Because Aziel was pure, but she was dirty.
“I misplaced my phone during the kidnapping.
” Sarah could barely meet Aziel’s gaze, offering a whispered explanation, “I only realized it was gone just now.
I had to request the hospital reception to call a cab for me.
”
Her voice carried a hint of grievance and was gradually fading into a murmur.
Aziel’s anger heightened at her lamentable demeanor.
She had been through a major incident, and yet, he wasn’t her first port of call in her moment of vulnerability and distress.
