Chapter 303

Colin quickly crouched down to pick the ball up, but someone was one step ahead of him.

The stranger picked it up and played with it.

“It’s pretty.” The stranger had a gentle voice.

Colin sized the stranger up.

The latter had beautiful eyes. Although he was wearing a custom black and white suit, the aura he

gave off was different from Ethan’s.

Ethan appeared intimidating, while the stranger appeared gentle.

The stranger’s gaze alone was gentle enough to remind others of spring.

He was one of Ethan’s best friends-Bryan Moore. He was known to be a herbal maniac.

They were standing close so Colin could smell the herbal smell from Bryan.

Colin smiled warmly. “It’s handmade, so it’s different from machine-made products. Thank you, sir.”

Bryan handed the ball to Colin. “I guess this must be important to you. You went for this ball instead of

the car keys first.”

“It is. An important friend of mine gave it to me. I’ll be off first, sir.” Colin picked the car keys up and

turned sideways to make way for Bryan.

Bryan didn’t say anything further as he entered Yearwoods’ Restaurant.

After Colin left, Bryan fished his phone out and made a call lazily.

When the line went through, Ethan said grumpily, “Anything you need?”

“Must I have a reason to call you? Have you found Liv?” Mischievousness seeped into Bryan’s voice.

“If you wanna make fun of me, do it some other day. I don’t have time.”

Ethan was going to end the call.

Bryan grinned. “But I found her.”

Ethan’s finger paused, and he raised his voice. “What did you say? Where is she!”

“I bumped into a young man. He has a little red ball attached to his car keys. It looks like the one you

had that year.”

At that time, Ethan brought that little red ball along everywhere he went, trying to show it off.

“Where is she?” asked Ethan.

“She was here three minutes ago. She’s gone now,” answered Bryan.

Ethan was angry as he huffed, “Bryan Moore! Be serious!”

“Geez, why the vile temper? Anger is not good for your health. I took a picture. You can look into it

yourself.”

Ethan received a message of a young man’s picture. Even though it was only a side profile, Ethan

could recognize the face

easily.

It was none other than Colin!

Ethan didn’t suspect Colin at all. Olivia had been staying with Colin all this time!

“Look into Colin. I want to know everything that happened to him recently,” Ethan said.

Previously, he found out about Colin, who was merely Olivia’s neighbor. Colin had been living abroad,

so there was nothing out of the ordinary.

After an investigation, Ethan found out that the Moriarty family had been running a maritime transport

business.

Kelvin rushed to Ethan. “Mr. Miller, I found something! The Moriaritys applied for a cargo ship for

departure a week ago.”

“When is it going to depart?” Ethan asked.

“It was scheduled to be two days later, but they suddenly requested an early departure. The application

is approved.

“It will depart tonight. The cargo ship should be at the port by now.”

“Damn it! Bring the men with us. Get them!” Ethan grabbed his suit jacket and ran out.

He had underestimated Colin. He didn’t expect Colin to take Olivia away!

On the other hand, Olivia was enjoying the sea breeze. She watched the drizzle while feeling a weight

sitting upon her chess.

“What’s the matter, Olivia?” Colin asked.

“Nothing. Just feeling kinda uneasy.” It was the same feeling she always had before something bad

happened. “I don’t think we will be able to leave the place smoothly.”

Colin smiled confidently. “Don’t worry about it, Olivia. I’ve got everything prepared. It’s cold outside.

Let’s head inside.”
