Chapter 581 Missing?
âWho did you say was missing?â
âZac.â
âWhat? Zac is missing?â
Shocked, Olivia quickly got off the bed and ran out without putting on her shoes.
âKen, do you know what youâre talking about? Why would he go missing? He is the Quinton familyâs âLiv, I hope itâs not true. Iâm calling you. Itâs my last hope.â
Ken paused. âA week ago, he knew no lawyer would accept your case, so he bought a plane ticket and decided to come to you. I guessed that.
âSo, I didnât care when he wasnât at the firm.
âHowever, it has been a week, and I havenât heard from him. His phone is off. I checked and found out that he didnât board the plane that day.
âI thought maybe he took another flight, or maybe he didnât use an airline at all. However, Liv, you said you havenât met him, so he didnât go to Murica.â
Olivia shuddered and bumped into the passing nurse.
âSorry. Iâm sorry...â
She quickly apologized to the nurse. Then, she ran out of the hospital, stopped by a taxi, and went home.
âKen, Iâm buying a ticket back to Ocean City now.â
âWhat? Youâre going back to Ocean City? Are you crazy? You know...â
âKen, I canât do nothing after learning that Zac has disappeared. He saved my life.â
He seemed to know that he could not persuade her, so he said, âAlright, let me know when you arrive. I will pick you up.â
âNo, itâs too obvious for you to pick me up. Iâll just go back myself.â
âErm... Iâll find you a house, then.â
âOkay. Thank you. Please help me to keep an eye on Zacâs matter. Remember to let me know if you get any news.â
âOkay, no problem.â
After hanging up the call, Olivia took a deep breath. She felt her heart thumping and her mind buzzing.
Zac was missing.
Who could have done it?
John?
It could not be John.
Although John was mean, for so many years, John had never hurt Zac. He would not do it now, either.
Who else could have done it, then?
After pondering, she could not think of any enemies Zac had.
After booking the plane ticket, she called Fred.
âLiv, what happened? You did not go home the whole night, and I could not get to you. Where have you been? If you do this again, I...â
âFred, listen to me. Zac is missing. Look for where his phone signal cut off.â
Startled, Fred asked in disbelief, âWhat did you say? Zac is missing?â
âYes. Ken told me just now. Please find out quickly.â Olivia paused, then added, âIâm fine. I went out last night and got stuck at the mountains.â
âWere you with Xavier or John?â
Olivia pursed her lips and said, âLook for Zac first. Also, please help me apologize to Lyla. I canât go to your place now.â
Fred seemed to have already guessed that. Although he was displeased, he did not object.
âAlright, but stay safe. Ocean City... is a dangerous place for you.â
âI know.â Olivia bit her lip. âDonât worry. Iâm not the Olivia I was four years ago. Iâm Phoebe now.â
She did say so, but she was still a little nervous.
Four years. It had been four years since she left that city.
There lived her greatest enemy. There, her most painful and most joyful memories of the past. were sealed. All the relatives who died because of her were buried there, and her brother lan...
It would take courage to go back.
However, she would not back down.
