Chapter 209 She was Insane However, her wound still hurt with every step that she took as sweat continued forming around her forehead. Amy couldnât help but blame everything on Anna. Sheâs insane! Itâs fine that she wants to bully Olivia, but dragging Eugene into this? Anna wasnât seeking death by doing this. Instead, sheâs dragging the entire family to die along with her!
They got up to the third floor using the staircase. There was still a complete room here with a door and windows. Eugene pulled Olivia backward before he brought his leg up and kicked the door. However, they were dumbfounded when they entered the room, for it was already empty.
However, there were eaten lunch boxes as well as ropes used for bonding and some dried bloodstains; all of this pointed to the fact that they were once here! Oliviaâs mind started buzzing before going completely blank. Then, she started searching around the room frantically.
Eugene was stunned as he stood rooted to the ground. Theyâve left. Did they leave after realizing that weâd found out about their location, or did someone come to rescue them?
Eugene took his phone out and contacted Curtis. âDid you guys rescue the kid?â
Curtisâ anxious voice rang out from the other end of the call. âPresident Nolan, we havenât found him yet. However, weâve already gotten their location. Theyâre now in a demolished building in the suburbs.â
Eugene felt his heart sink. âWe are here, but theyâre already gone!â
âWhat? You guys are there already? Theyâre gone? Could it be that theyâve already relocated?â
Eugene was worried about that as well. âLetâs regroup here for now!â Then, he took Amyâs phone and tried to contact Anna again. However, this time, the phone was turned off.
At the same time, Olivia had already searched through the entire room. She looked like she was in a panic. âNo. It looks like they went down willingly, and there were many of them. There are many footprints in the room and on the staircaseâthere should be at least six of them!â
Eugene immediately tried to console Olivia. âDonât be anxious. Letâs head down and see if we can find any leads.â
Olivia asked, âWhat about her phone? Did the call go through?â
Eugene shook his head. âShe turned off her phone!â
Immediately, Olivia dashed toward Amy, as if she had gone insane, as she grabbed onto Amyâs collar and demanded, âTell me!
Where is Anna? Where is she?!â
Amyâs collar tightened around her neck, and she was struggling to speak. âI really donât know! Iâve been with you guys the entire time!â
Olivia was panicking. This felt so much worse than not being able to locate them. It was as if she had fallen into an endless hole, and, after spending so much effort to climb up, she fell back into the hole again. The fear of the unknown was magnified in the dark night. She was losing her rationality as she tried to think clearly. Could it be that Henry had contacted Anna and informed her to get away? If it werenât so, how could it be so coincidental?
Olivia took her phone and immediately contacted Henry before asking in a bone-chilling tone, âDid you contact Anna and told her to get away?â
Henryâs voice rang from the phone. âNo, I didnât!â
Oliviaâs eyes were reddish as tears threatened to pour out. âIf you hadnât informed her, how did Anna manage to escape?
Henry... y-youâre really cruel...â Oliviaâs last sentence was laced with so much pain and helplessness.
Eugene felt like someone was slashing his heart as he watched the woman in front of him shake while holding the phone.
Immediately, he went over to her and pulled her into his embrace before he snatched her phone over and hung up.
âIt could not have been your father. He wouldnât dare to pull that off since Amy is in our hands now. Iâve already warned him about it!â
Olivia was horrified. âThat insane woman wouldnât really want to bring North to the depths of hell along with her, would she?â
Eugene patted Oliviaâs back lightly before he consoled her, âShe wonât. No one wants to die. Donât scare yourself like that.â
