“Mr. Charriftgton, Miss Darling is

really skitled. She’ll be fine. Plus, ber

parentgand Xavier are with herand

Neenea two bodyguards

Natkan said, wiping his forebead

nefvously.

"David had been so calm around Danielle that Nathan had

forgotten what David was like before all of this.

“Are you a fortune teller?" David asked, his voice sharp.

“Nathan blinked, not sure where this was going. "No..."

“Then stop acting like you know it all," David said, his eyes

cold and intense.

“If you don’t find her in the next half hour, you’ll be digging

coal in Sheaniea," David added.

“Nathan’s eyes went wide. "Not that place, please. It’s not

somewhere anyone should be. I’ll find Miss Darling’s

location within half an hour, I promise."

Then, he rushed out of the living room, knowing he had

less than half an hour to get things done before David sent

him to Sheaniea.

----

The phone suddenly rang, and David’s anger flared up.

‘Who the hell dare to piss me off now?’

“Speak,” he snapped, already on edge.

“What’s got you so pissed?" Jaden asked, surprised by the

sudden anger.

“Just say it, or I’m hanging up," David shot back. He wasn’t

in the mood for small talk. His mind was completely

focused on finding Danielle.

“Jaden, realizing David was already in a bad mood, got

straight to the point. "Do you know where Xavier went?"

“You want me to babysit him now?" David shot back, still

frustrated with his friend.

----

"Jaden forged himself to stay calm.

He knewthis wasn’t the right time”

for thisGonversation, but he had

already been snapped at, so he’

migkt as well get the answet" ‘I’m

na’joking."

“He’s gone," David said, his teeth clenched as his anger

bubbled up.

----

“What are you saying?" Jaden asked, clearly confused.

“They’re lost. I can’t track them down,” David replied, his

frustration growing.

“Jaden finally put the pieces together. So, Danielle was

probably gone too.

“Have you found them now?" Jaden asked again.

“Don’t you have something else to do?" David snapped, his

worry for Danielle outweighing any patience for small talk.

“I’ll help you find her. Let me know if you hear anything,”

Jaden offered, but David hung up before he could say

more, irritated by the pointless conversation.

“Nathan burst in. "Sir, I found them. They’re in Blackpool

Village. It’s a remote area, no signal."

----

“Get the helicopter ready. We’re heading to Blackpool

Village," David ordered as he stood up and made his way

to the door.

“Hold on, sir. It’s all mountains out there, no signal. We’ll

have to drive," Nathan pointed out carefully.

“Then let’s get going,” David replied, and the Rolls-Royce

convoy took off from Nathor Palace.

“During the ride, David called Jaden to let him know where

they were heading.

“Sir, it’s gonna take about three hours to get there. You

should try to rest, you haven’t had much sleep the past

couple of days," Nathan said, glancing at him.

“Yeah," David muttered, too exhausted to argue.

----

"Meanwhile, Jaden got the info from

David and aed getting ready to

head to Blackpool Village himself. ¢~

‘Xavier #éallly can’t seem to stay out

of trogble. What’s he doing in that

godfdrsaken place?’ he thought,

fect ration growing.
