Chapter 201 Disappeared
1/5
The evening of the second day of the Christmas holiday, Cora
still hadn’t received a reply from Byron.
She stared at the empty chat box and couldn’t help feeling disappointed.
“Is he really that busy? Too busy to even reply with a single
word?”
Indeed, since leaving early on Christmas morning, Byron had disappeared without a trace. He hadn’t
sent Cora any messages during his absence either.
And throughout this period, Cora had been waiting for him at home, except for her visits to the hospital
to see Flora.
But this kind of waiting continued until the fifth day of the
Christmas holiday, with no sign of him appearing or replying.
Her eager heart seemed to gradually lose its enthusiasm in
this long wait.
So, on this evening, Cora sent another message to Byron.

She could still send the message successfully, but as expected, it also sank into oblivion.
Cora couldn’t help feeling annoyed and thought, “You won’t reply to my messages? Fine, I won’t bother
you either. When you come back and want to make up with me, I will definitely ignore you!”
With such thoughts in mind, Cora returned to work at the
hospital.
Starting from the sixth day of the holiday, the hospital was
bustling again, and even the emergency room had more patients than usual.
While being swamped, Cora’s concern for Byron seemed to
diminish.
However, when she returned to her empty apartment,
loneliness pounced on her like a lurking beast, tearing apart her self-proclaimed facade of toughness
into pieces.
She missed him so much.
So much that it was even suffocating!
She even set aside her pride and took the initiative to call him.

Yet, the person on the other end of the line still didn’t answer…
So, she couldn’t help but wonder if Byron was away on another business trip like before. Was he too
busy to care about her feelings?
Truly, this was the first time love had tortured her like this.
Even during her passionate romance with Eason, she had
never experienced such burning and lung-scratching longing.
And so, in the end, she couldn’t control herself. On the eighth day of the holiday, which happened to be
her day off, she dressed seductively and went to the Hansen Group building.
“I’d like to see Mr. Hansen,” she politely greeted the
receptionist.
“Did you make an appointment?” The receptionist looked at her devilish figure outlined by the pink-blue
knit dress and couldn’t help showing a tinge of disdain.
“No, but please tell Mr. Hansen that my last name is Lane.”
Cora didn’t dare to consider herself too important. She just thought that since she and Byron had made
so many loving memories in bed, he would agree to see her.

“I’m sorry, but we receive many people like you every day. If we report every one of them to the upper
management, we won’t be able to handle the workload.”
Cora frowned at her words. She asked, “But I really need to meet Mr. Hansen. Can you please let him
know?”
“Sorry. Please come back after you make an appointment.” The receptionist’s refusal made Cora even
more helpless.
But she didn’t want to make this trip in vain. So, she took out
her phone and called Carter.
“Miss Lane?” Carter sounded somewhat surprised when he
received Cora’s call.
“Carter, I’m downstairs at the Hansen Building. Um… could you do me a favor and take me up to see
Mr. Hansen?”
Cora felt a little embarrassed and inappropriate for showing up like this.
But she couldn’t stop missing Byron, so despite the
awkwardness, she voiced her desire.
Carter hesitated for a moment before speaking, “I’ll come
right away.”
